Your Ideas for FIFA 09

Auto Management is a good idea.
So you just play while the computer does the managing.

the picture of Gabriele Sandri should be on the olimpico when Lazio plays. and in the 7:th minute on the bernabeu when Real Madrid plays then the crowd will sing "illa, illa, illa Juanito Maranvilla". If you put that in the game it would be great

1.THEY SHOULD PUT MCAFFEE STADIUM 2.THEY SHOULD PUT INDOOR SOCCER 3.THEY SHOULD PUT REAL FANS

I would really want a better system to make new players. As it is now it is almost impossible to make a good player. And it should be possible to play with it in the national team as well as in a clubteam.

more football boot choices
More tricks and skills
Reall life crowd
mORE CELEBRATIONS
Better sliding tackles
Better goals
Dug outs with managers and players sitting down and warming up
interviews after the game
before the match watch and listen to the team talk being said about the tacktics
the forth afficial giving the sub numbers out to the crowed

diffrent ref each game
fights on the pitch when there is a bad tackle
streches when players are hurt
wathing the players warm up before the match.
seeing players break there legs during the match from a bad tackle
more shooting technics
players complaining to the referee and getting booked
players getting booked for time wasting.
the crowds getting anoyed by dissions
Diving and getting booked.

argentinean league. C'MON ARGENTINA IS THE NUMBER 1 IN THE RANKING, AND IS THE BEST LEAGUE IN AMERICA !!!. many people wants this liberators cup, sudamerican cup, and sudamerican leagues:(colombia,venezuela,chile,peru,bolivia,uruguay,paraguay,ecuador) Nationals teams of these countries (chile,peru,bolivia,colombia,venezuela)

SANTIAGO BERNABEU I think that this stadium is very important.ANTONIO VESPUCIO LIBERTI  (el monumental) river plate in argentina.ALBERTO J. ARMANDO (la bombonera)  Boca Junior in argentina.CICERO POMPEU DE TOLEDO (morumbi) Sao paulo in Brazil.JORNALISTA MARIO FILHO (maracana) Fluminense in Brazil.Those stadiums are large, beautifuls and importants for their countries.

*1)i think that the new game should have more leagues in particular the RUSSIAN league, so players like arshavin are available. ****
2)more accurate commentary and more varitey 3 or 4 people
3)referees and linesman on the pitch, also managers on the sidelines (show there reactions on certain things if possible
4)more kits available, more variety in the creation of a player
*5)more realistic financially. you should be given a sum of money (depending on your club) at the start of every transfer window.****
*6)being able to change jobs during a season, or be offered jobs by other clubs***

Well, that would be stupid, higher league teams should have more fitness and stamina so they should last longer than lower league teams who have inferior fitness.

you should be able to create more clubs and be able to choose what leage you want them in and choose them a sponser and be able to put them in an international leage

Here are some of my points wich will make FIFA 09 a whole lot better.
- Better keepers and occastional mistakes from them and being able to catch the ball from dives
- Hand balls given
- Being able to dive
- Easier controls for tricks no matter what direction your facing they stay the same also
- Weather conditions like the pitch gets puddles when it rains alll match
- Easier to upgrade players overall on season growth
- Vary the comentators
- Have alot better facial details on players
- Stop making all the players look fat is it just me or on 08 did they look fat?
- Have ALOT more emotions and cut scenes when the ref gets a decistion wrong
- diffrent sleeve length like ronaldo's for man u, half way up his arm
- Have alot more things to do in create a player, More licensed boots
- Should be able to see the ref in the game and possibly lines-men
- Better first touch ability
- Have players come to the ball and not wait

these are only some of my ideas i think some football fans could come up with endless possibilities
many thanks Vandy:)

Just too have more leagues. In particular the Scottish lower leagues as the manager mode gets pretty boring without the threat of being relegated.

also when you crate a player mould it around famous players faces
also make players look more like themselves like michael carrick looks nothing like himself where as darren fletcher does

Player Interviews and Magazine interviews.

i love fifa its much better than PES
in manager mode include world cups and euro finals
Even be able to manager international teams in manager mode
i think it should have the russian league
More facilities in practise mode
and have all the latest transfers (so bring it out in september)

in manager mode make it so that lower league teams dont get really tired after games and therefore u dont hav to change your team setup every game

I adore fifa. Couple Of Improvements will be handy e.g :

Russian Premier League

World Cup, Euros, Copas, African Cup Of Nations on tournament mode. Qualifiers.

Wait until all of transfers complete before realese.

Israel National Team And League.

On Training Mode make a indoor football centre.

shoot/pass faster when you press the button

do better yeir skills

the created players to have the faces like othe players in formations

please set the albanian leage. and the nation

i think for something like fifa 07 but better than that wit more options and the players faces will be more real and with a format to play and with a not very good computer.

I have read through a lot of the comments on here and most of them are quite worthy and are good innovative ideas however we have to look at what is most practical and most important to a soccer sim.

- Gameplay, the Euro 2008 gameplay was so much better that FIFA 08, passing, movement, pace, crossing, through balls and shooting. It is not perfect but this needs to be maintained and improved in FIFA 09. As longs as its still smooth and you can pass it around and vary the play like in real life. The main areas that need to be improved in the gameplay would be in order of priority: 1: Goalkeepers - Still too slow to come out, AI Goalies always save the same shots all the time, ie you rarely beat them at the front post and needs to be a lot more varied like a few fumbles etc. 2: Long balls, most of the long balls either go too far or not far enough, you need to have the feeling of being able to put the ball where you want it, Pro Evo was always good at this. 3: Long through balls, is it just me or do they always end up too short, in real life most of these fizz through to the keeper, so make this more realistic in 09.

- Tricks: These get their own section because I feel they need a change. The idea of having a trick stick is great, BUT only if the player is facing the same way all the time. I find it difficult to pull of tricks when facing in different directions and end up doing the wrong trick or no trick. Surely you should keep the trick stick working in the same direction no matter which was they player is facing? Or at least designate more simple tricks to actual trigger buttons or elsewhere on the pad.

- Weather Conditions: Simple, please apply the same weather conditions you have in Euro 2008 to FIFA 09, they are good, they work.

- Player Likenesses: Even in Euro 2008 they are not great, not even as good as Pro Evo 08 which is a bad game but at least the likenesses are good. What I dont understand is in other EA Sports games like NBA the likenesses are amazing, photo realistic. Cant you get that team to work on the players faces of FIFA 09?! At least get everyones favourite big name players right. I feel sorry for poor old Rio Ferdinand and Michael Owen who dont look anything like each other!

Like many people I have converted from Pro Evo to Fifa in the last year. Dont make FIFA 09 a reason for me and many others to go back to Pro Evo, keep the gameplay and pace good and improve a few of the cosmetics, then everyone will be happy!

:-)

And make the tricks and skill sets easy to use on a xbox 360 , like in the older fifa games as its it is quite complicated in the current fifa 08.

There should simultanneous games being played when clubs or countires are fighting for the title on thelast day. As in the constant updates score updates of the rival club should should be shown on the players screen during his match. And at halftime
maybe a little video of the rival teams game upto that point.

And please have trophy cleebrations after winning a cup or trophy. And where the players are awarded the cup and do a victpry lap in the field along with the cup.
And also do a parade in their city.

Please look for the russian league, argentinean league and the 3rd german league
And please take the real ADRIAN MUTU into the game.

Forget the irish league and the australien league!

Thanks a lot

I have been a die hard fan of FIFA games. ever since it was stars around the bottom of the player. and have been amazed at the way that FIFA has come on leaps and bounds. Every year there's a new touch, and i used to love the one touch skills (which wern't really present in 06/07), now they are back its made it such a better game to enjoy. I agree with the be a fan for a match idea, ive always thought of it everytime ive been to see matches and think it would put a intresting spin on the game. also THE CROWD, i love nothing better than cranking up the volume when i play an Old Firm Game, but the crowd is dissapointing, bring back the chants, like for Celtic you had on 06 "Never Walk Alone" when it was in the pre-match stages before kick off, now i only really hear it in The Premiership which is annoying since the Celtic and Rangers matches are renound for their atmosphere!

I don't believe in the Diving situation due to its not realistic, its just going back to past games which i found to be frustrating when diving occured.

The loading screen shouldhave more tasks and maybe achivements for example, megging the keeper or scoreing from a certain distance to keep you entertained while it loads.

players emotions should also play a big part, for example if its 1-1 with 7 mins to go, when ever a foul is commited / not given, you should see player thowing arms around and in the cut screens see them arguing with more than one player and being broken up by the ref of several players.

i found ps2 versions of fifa were alot less glitchy, there were times while playing it on the ps3 wen
free kicks were given, u didnt even know wat for! i think tackles should show alot more impact on
player, makiing the game a bit more competitive.
In manager mode, i wood like to see realistic money being earned and spent, IRL for example,
teams cood earn up to 10million pounds throughout the whole champions league,
whereas in fifa 08 your total earnings would have been 1.5million. if you had the ability to
earn realistic funds, it would mean you might have a chance of purchasing those high priced players
for your dream team, instead of saving for two- three seasons to either...
A. buy them when they are old
B. hope to get them on the free

another factor i would like to see in manager mode is offers from other clubs for your managerial
skills. i didnt see the point in the board of directors saying in fifa 08 they would
"like you to stay despite potential offers from other clubs"
when you werent actually getting any offers! money offers and increased transfer fund offers
would make the game a whole lot more interesting in my point of view, also entising you to
try out other clubs.

I hope this has been great help and hope it is not too late for these points to be read.
Peace Out

hi
i would like to see goalkeepers glovers to buy on the new fifa game and on be a pro you should able to be the goalkeeper has well, i like to see more of traits.

u should be able to make your own kit after the 1st season, its a bit boaring with the same kit all the time

Please Bring back the Bernabeau Stadium(Home Of Real Madrid) That was a real let down on Fifa 08.

- More offical Stadiums Especially the Bernabeau and the Estadio De Dragao
- Changing weather conditions insstead of constant sunny weather all season long.
- Sharper and more responsive gameplay.
- Better Goalkeepers, sometimes their diving to save a goal is ridiculous.
- Official Champions League Tournament.

One last thing, Please Fifa, STOP MAKING WAYNE ROONEY LOOK FAT!!!!

Iran League!
CHAMPION for asia!

PS3 version of FIFA 08 never had authentic sounds, not even as good as PC version e.g. ball hitting posts/cross bar, big thumps, sliding tackles, big clearance/boot, immediate reaction from crowd with no delays (delayed cheer when scoring in ps3 version) also wouldn't hurt to make crowd respond to different and more aspects of whats happening on the field.
Please consider! Thanks.

make manager mode like fifa manager.For example:
1)manager can be and player(if his age is under 35)
2)can manage a national team(for that needs all national teams and all national competitions like euro , copa america or mundial-i think you can add it because is easy ,if you use the database from fifa manager).
Now for the manager mode add the 'manager rating' that shows if manager can manage the team if the board rejects the manager he can work in the academy of the team or he can be assistand.
If you can (for manager mode) the scouters(the people who search for new talent players i mean)can find player's from all countries or watch some young players who plays in teams or nations(and that for future bid or for next transfer season).
In the manager mode add the real bugets(the money who have one team for transfers etc)that i write because the buget who you add in the fifa's 08 manager mode isn't the true-one example is chelsea that team have as a buget 200.000.000 euro as buget not the 100.000.000 who you add.
that for now.

People calling for the new leagues and nations fail to realise its a licensing issue, FIFA will have to wait to acquire some licenses its the same with Competition names

Also our time shouldnt be wasted with things like press conferences, reserves and youth teams, also blood is a no go as it would raise the games age rating and be very unnecessary

I'd like to see
- More injuries
- Referees
- Linesman
- More intervals during transfer windows
- Euro qualifiers from the first year
- More indepth scouting
- Quicker trick system and less complicated

IT WOULD ALSO BE NICE TO SEE PRESS CONFERENCES WITH MANAGERS AND PLAYERS ABOUT THE UPCOMING MATCH OR THE MATCH THAT WAS JUST PLAYED! IM NOT SAYING 2 HAVE 1 4 EVERY MATCH BUT ONLY 4 THE BIG DERBIES AND CHAMPIONS LEAUGE MATCHES.

GREEK + CYPRIOT LEAUGE + CYPRIOT NATIONAL TEAM NEEDED IN FIFA 09

TRAINING SESSIONS WOULD ALSO BE GOOD IN CAREER MODE DURING THE WEEK U ACTUALLY DO DRILLS WITH PLAYERS SO SO CAN SEE HOW THEY PROGRESS.

GREEK + CYPRIOT LEAUGES + CYPRIOT NATIONAL TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE FOOTBALL HAS TO BE MORE "FREE FLOWING" OFTENLY IT TAKES TO LONG 4 THE BALL TO GET ACROSS THE PITCH AND THUS U DON'T FEEL THAT QUICK RUSH LIKE WHEN ACTUALY PLAYING THE GAME.

GREEK + CYPRIOT LEAUGE NEED 2 B INCLUDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I AM DEEPLY SADDEN FOR IN THE PAST FIFAs ONLY AEK, OLYMPIACOS AND PANATHINIAKOS WERE INCLUDED. WHICH SMART ASS DECIDED TO PUT IN THESSALONIKA? THEIR IS NO SUCH TEAM IN GREECE CALLED THAT! THEIR REAL NAME IS PAOK! U NEED 2 SERIOUSLY PAY A VISIT TO THE GREEKSUPERLEAUGE WEBSITE AND THE UEFA WEBSITE TO CHAECH OUT THE SQUADS AND TEAM NAMES OF THE GREEK AND CYPRIOT TEAMS!

GREEK LEAUGE + CYPRIOT LEAUGE R NEEDED IN FIFA09! PLUS CYPRIOT NATIONAL TEAM!!

i believe Fifa 09 need to include:.......

THE GREEK SUPERLEAUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE CYPRIOT LEAUGE!!!!!!!!

THE CYPRIOT NATIONAL TEAM!!!!!!!!

as well as more international teams eg more african nations, asian, and south american

along with argentinian leauge and chineeses/korean leauge

Bigger manager mode. Be able to see referees. The audience should waiwing flags and they should also be the same color as the team:D

> better gameplay
>be able to see referees
>more red cards
>have the actual premier league referees.
>be able to see the assistant referees.
>be able to see offside flag, and ref can overule decisions.
>In the game players are able to dive like ronaldo :)
>be able to see injuries, like broken legs. we need blood.
>when players are injured, you should be able to see players taking drinks, e.g lucozade or powerade.
>have your own celebrations, e.g run into the crowd and get booked.
>half time entertainment.(cross-bar challenge)
>be able to be a fan for a game.
>have pre-season friendlies.
>should be called champions league and uefa cup and intertoto cup,
>in manager mode, just be 1 player and you decide how you play and what contract you get.
>andrei arshavin should look like himself and be on the game:)
>holland should be a registered team and have thier actual players.
>improve create a player, and create a team.

I THINK PEOPLE WOULD CERTAINLY AGREEE WITH THESE IDEAS, AS THEY ARE REALISTIC. MANAGER MODE HAS GOT TO IMPROVE AND BE LONGER. i HOPE YOU USE THESE IDEAS, THANKS VERY MUCH !!!

you should place the blue square premier teams on the game that would be a laugh

There's a time delay when u use the trick stick. This ought to be instant (or at least closer to instant) for FIFA 09 and therefore easier to use players like ronaldo as they play in reality.

Hi

Urgent FLAW

since fifa 07 i have liked the direction you have been going with the game and each time you have improved with euro 08 being the best overall....

However, there is a major flaw with the game. i agree that long shots shouldnt be a gimme but you have made it way too hard to score a long shot or an unbeliveable goal which can happen quite frequently in real life.

So for a realistic game the fact that you cant do that makes it quite unrealistic. When you play a football game you want to know you at least have a chance of doing what you can in real life. So its a real shame that a really good game has a major put off like that in it. Also what the point of having a great button like the finesse shot if that never works either in 08

I am big fan of the new fifas and have converted a few of the die hard pro lovers to it. I did love pro evo 4 but after that I thought they were terrible.

cheers
El Tel

Weather, and weather that can change during the matches!

The career mode to be altered so you can be a player in a 15 years career. You can be sold, request a transfer and so on. You play as yourself and you are then a footballer.

That would be immense!

their should be a manager mode for international teams

lots of people have mentioned to put the refs back on the pitch. i remember that fifa use to have it and im guessing you guys took it of because people complained about getting mixed up with the ref and your player. I no i did. Well I tink they should be on but depending on the teams you are (eg Man u and Arsenal) they are like red n white or red n black so dont make the ref that clour make it yellow

Retain Euro 08's Create a celebration feature

International managers
