Small thing is in career mode for the created players you should have them change clothes to like change into underarmour when its raining or snowing. it's the end of the world if you don't change it bu it'd be cool. plus manager mode you should bring back scouting and also establish academys so say young players can come up.
I would like to be able to change the colors of the shoes and have the oportunity to create my own team

They should get the official license from UEFA for Champions league and Europe league.
Also name the trophy right like spanish trohpy "copa del rey" not copa de espana or something. The design of the trophies and the scenes where you get the trophies should be better and various, makes the game more real. You should be able to see more details about other league for example you play in spanish league and u want to see who played against who in german league and who has the most goals and stuff. Also a big list of all transfers. Also there should be more transfers ingame, most of the good "expensive" players never get bought.
Make the crow better visual and audio. Make more stadiums.
You should be able to create your own team start low like 3rd or 2nd league and try to get to 1st league, would be cool if you could design the shirts of your own team, also you should be able to do manager mode (career mode) with your own created team.
In FIFA 12, a be a ref mode could be featured. I would also like to see some more fetures in Online Clubs. This includes sunsitutions and more cups.
There is no reason to wait 2 full minutes when loading online team play, if all players are ready, yet a few guys just haven't pressed "Ready". Same applies on the position selection screen (where you pick CF/LM/CB etc). If you aren't ready after 15 seconds then you never will be. 15 seconds max so that it doesn't take as much time to get into a match as it does to play one!

Also there needs to be a far bigger points bonus for choosing a worse team in online 1 vs 1. EVERYONE is the same team and it's so boring. The team rating bonus should be a multiplier not just a +1 or +2 points.
get all the way down to blue square north with real players. i would wait an extra month or so
The ref is very unfair

To EA SPORTS I think fifa 12 should be able to allow the players when they score to go to the fans , diving should be allowed , dissent, arguments and fighting, managers and fans being shown like the world cup 2010 game, boots being updated , white socks over coloured socks , new hairstyles, better celebrations, better chants,new stadiums,african national teams e.g ghana , new commentators and a american acccent commentary, broken legs on players, custom kit designs and boot designs like nike id or mi adidas , add blue square premier league , copa libetaredos and world club championship in career mode.

Thank You EA SPORTS for reading my comments.
Yours Sincerely B.A-P
manager mode where you can edit and make your own manager and see the manager on the side line like in fifa world cup
In manager mode youngsters don't develop not close to how they they should do cause i buy a youngster i would want him to get better as th years go by and maybe get into my first team
Managers should be in the game
please add "Libertadores" and "World club championship" to career mode..
so if the team that my player is on wins copa do brasil for instance or campeonato brasileiro ,we get to play on libertadores of america and if you win then you get a chance at "World club championship".
career mode is awsome. I really enjoy playing it.
thanks
I love fifa its a wonderful game.. kudos to you all for making it better every year.
However for 2012 the one thing i would really like to change is passing in the career mode. It should be like the pc version where you can command the computer to give you they type of pass you want, like a long ball through ball chip pass etc.
please add this mutiplayer career mode a bit like what they do in their NFL games
it should have lots of mercurials
I Personally feel Fifa 11 was the best by a mile but there are still a few areas that cause minor concern, Firstly if you select a player to take a set peice he should continue to perform this role even if his position changes, this also brings me on to my second issue which is you should have a vice captain eg if im liverpool and I choose to substitute gerrard with shelvey in reality carragher would take the captains armband not the 19 year old inexperienced shelvey and the handing over of the armband could be a good cut scene like the substitute cut scene, granted its not the end of the world but if I want to immerse myself in a realistic game then small changes like this can make all the difference. My last point is about player likenesses which although greatly improved still remains a mystery eg why are players like chelseas borini and arsenals ramsey pictured when 1st team players like kolorov (man c), A Johnson (man C), Hart (Man C), valencia (Man U), Hernandez (Man U), Rafael (Man U), kelly (Liv), R Merieles (Liv), Lucas (Liv) are still left out, im not complaining that reserve players are pictured cause this is good but lets get all the first teamers pictured as well. Thanks for listening.
Fifa 12 should include blue square premier league and alao an ability to play music while playing in a match
Zibzab master
There should be a way to take the ball from the opponent in addition to the A, B and X button.. Because the A button hardly does anything, x button is to dangerous and the B button just runs after a guy.. You see sometimes a player that tackles hard or throws his leg around a player just to get the ball, a button for those harder tackles would be nice but with a higher chance of card or freekick. Because I have notice when I play against someone else, all I need to do for the opponent not being able to take the ball is walk in a different direction when I get close to him. By doing this the opponent player just runs passed me or stops. If the opponent would have tried to get to the ball anyway since I am only changing my direction by a couple of cm, he would easily have gotten the ball! This is what bugs me the most. Please fix this!
Graphics Should Be Changed To 1080i or 1080p, dont like the graphics look bit stupid for some reason other games have better graphics and fifa dont, come on i know your guys can pull this one of aswell.

You should; make the game faces more realistic
Put a diving button
No contracts on ultimate team
More money
Better celebrations
More skills
4 refs
More free kicks and pens
More stadiums
Make yOur own team shirt etc
More crowd chants
Put fights
Embarrass players via skills
I would like to see

1. The tight fit under layer top as worn by Iniesta and Rooney introduced in the edit players section so all players can have it!

2. The tight fit under layer to used in other weather other than rain. I also would like to see different weather settings like a cold but dry! In other a realistic depiction of the weather.

3. All teams to have their proper GK kits. Totally overhaul the the goalkeepers as they are just shocking!
NAYIM KHAN & MATES
OKAY LET ME GET TO THE POINT.... YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO US (COMMUNITY)... FOR OVER 10 YEARS I HAVE BEEN BUYING BOTH PES & FIFA.. BOTH GAMES HAVE PROBLEMS. BUT FIFA ALWAYS COMES OUT ON TOP BECAUSE OF ITS LICENSED TEAMS AND THE ARENA MODE. YOU REALLY NEED TO START THINKING ABOUT MANAGERS BEING INTRODUCED AND MUD, GRASS, SPITTING, SWEARING, CRYING (KNOCK OUT STAGES)... STREAKERS ON THE PITCH WOULD BE GREAT.. YOU ALSO NEED TO CHANGE THE BOOT SELECTION AND ITS CONTENT. IF YOU COULD INTRODUCE NIKE ID AND MI ADIDAS INTO THE GAMES CREATE MODES. YOU NEED TO KEEP ULTIMATE TEAM FREE AND ALSO LIVE SEASON FREE THEM TWO FEATURES ARE FIFA'S STRONG POINT. MAYBE YOU COULD ADJUST THE GAME RATING TO PEGI 7+ AND HAVE AN AWESOME COVER ART. MUD, GRASS, BROKEN LEGS ON PLAYERS WOULD BE REALISTIC.... AND I KNOW YOUR GONNA THINK 'KIDS ARE GONNNA PLAY IT TOO YOU KNOW' BUT AS I HAVE SEEN IN GAMES SUCH AS TONY HAWK YOU CAN HAVE TO DIFFERENT RATING SELECTIONS E.G 'I AM UNDER 7'.......'I AM OVER 7' THIS WOUULD GET YOUR RATINGS HUGE. OH YEAH AND SHOW EVERY STADIUM. LIKE ELLAND ROAD, WHITE HART LANE, SPOTLAND ROAD, MOLINEUX THIS WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY..
A more advance manager gameplay just like football manager if that happens it would be the best game ever! a melting between football manager and fifa
a group of students
having played over 1000 matches on fifa11, we have numerous complaints/suggestions.

1. some players are blatantly over/under-rated. we appreciate that player ratings probably take a long time but some are horrendously wrong. why is cameron jerome so fast? why is paddy mccourts ball control not on a par with messi? and why oh why did diego forlans skill moves get dropped a star in the squad update? he is now a shadow of the fifa10 forlan.

2. some african national teams would be nice. equality and that...

3. northern irish league is a must. southern irish league is on there, but literally nobody cares about it.

4. it is FAR too easy to score headers. defenders just don't do anything against a cross.

5. defender AI is horrific when defending chipped through balls. too often they are caught ball watching and only react when the ball has gone over their head and landed nicely on the foot of an opposing striker.

6. goalkeepers are just embarrassing.

7. we understand this point may be controversial, but the option to intentionally dive would be funny. the referee loves giving decisions for nothing anyway in fifa11, why not make a meal out of it and have a laugh in the process!?

8. THAT SLIDE TACKLE GOT THE BLOODY BALL, WHY HAVE I BEEN SENT OFF!?!1!one!??!

9. players know which foot they are good with, so why, when in a perfect situation to curl the ball in with their strong foot, will a player decide "no, i don't fancy that. awkwardly kicking the ball out of play with my weak foot will be much more enjoyable."?

10. replace andy gray with jackie fullerton!

11. why is adrian mutu still named "murgu" even though the commentators definitely say "mutu"?

12. no i do not want to play every single online match against chelsea/real madrid/barcelona. a filter of some sort to get rid of 13 year olds with no imagination would be nice.
off game energy recovery in career mode should be faster and there shouldn't be a loyalty factor for transfers in career mode'
ok love fifa but theres seriously some issues they need to sort out
1) A preset 'B' team: in career mode before every game its really annoying having to set the team to play, if there was a way to set 2 or 3 preset teams would save a lot of time.
2) Funding in career mode, ok this is ridiculous, no matter how great you become, a ligue 1 team may only get the original amount form the board, also winnings for the cups is also pretty small.
CONSIGAN LICENCIA DE LA UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE PORFAVORRRRR!!!!!... SOLAMENTE EL PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER ME HACE DUDAR SI COMPRAR O NO EL FIFA 11 YA QUE ELLOS TIENEN LAS LICENCIAS DE COMPETENCIAS TAN IMPORTANTES EN VARIOS CONTINENTES...
POR LO MENOS JUGAR UN TORNEO CON ALGUN AMIGO Y QUE TENGA EL FORMATO DE LA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE A CUALIQUERA SE LE HACEN AGUAS LOS OJOS

LICENCIA DE LA CHAMPIONS YA!!! SOLAMENTE POR NO TENERLA EL PES11 LES QUITA MUCHOS PUNTOS
i think on fifa 12 you should be able to be a pro refere and also be ref of mates matches
HAVE INDOOR SOCCER AS WELL, LIKE IN FIFA 97
ITS FUN AND THE DIVERSITY IS MORE
YOU CAN PLAY 11 against 11 OR IF YOU ARE TIRED OF THAT YOU CAN PLAY INDOOR SOCCER
You guys should add a second divison for evey league so the game becomes more cooler because there is more teams to beat and pick from and make it look that every year there is new teams
1. Update manes of stadiums such as (Estadio Do Dragao) for FCPORTO
2. create an atmosphere like in Fifa World Cup 2010( have instant clips of coaches arguing with the referee or giving tactical dirctions to the players on the pitch)
3.Create a diving button for offline mode where as you can choose whether you want it on or off.
4. in offline modes create more tension between rivals such as having the players more aggresive and the referee more strict.
5.More tricks ( allow us to do the rabona manually or such the outside foot shot also manually)
6.more languages available for commentary options such as PORTUGUESE!
7.allow us when buying a player we can buy only half of his rights and buy the rest whenever of our choosing but if we sell him we only make half of the profit where the rest goes to the club with the other percentage of rights is being contained.
8.Create more impact on the game from the fans ( make the fans boo the opponents when their at home or boo a player that is having a bad rating for the game)
9. create more serious injuries while on the pitch( have players elbowed and if they get elbowed they can bleed.)
10. if a player gets seriously injured show him getting taken off the field on a stretcher
11. make transfers more realistic ( have players force their exit from the club depending on relationship with manager or even because of performance of team in competitions.
12. PLEASE HAVE THE GOALIE NOT WHERE THE SAME JERSEY AS AN OPPONENT OR EVEN ITS OWN TEAM IT DOESNT HAPPEN IN REALITY .
13.IN THE TRANSFER WORLD WHEN A PLAYER IS PLAYING REALLY WELL throughout a season depending on how big the club is - make it so teams make many offers regardless of the status of the player (he doesnt have to be for sale to be sold) and also let the player have an influence on the offer too if he wants to leave he can (no slavery in soccer)
new shoes fights player swapping transfers
A first-person mode should be available.
Andreas Sorger
I would like to see manager visuals (as im sure this has been mentioned before) and also make the transfers more realistic- player swaps and deadline day transfers, because Van der Vaart moved to Tottenham at a cut price deal on the final day. Kit and sponsor changes at the end of each season would be cool as well.
make career mode injuries more realistic, with players getting little niggles each week instead of only about five players getting injured each season. Thanks.
My suggestions are quite Simple
what I think are possible enhancements
1: Include a full game editor that can modify all aspects of the game efficiently and easily such as kits, leagues, stadiums, sounds etc. beyond the inefficient player and squad editors etc in Fifa 11. I'm sure the developers use some sort of game editor. Please share a version of this with the rest of us. That will allow many who want specific players/teams/leagues to create them themselves. I have used Creation master 11 that has allowed me to easily mod the game to my specs. Very well done by Ronaldo who created it for what it can do.
2: Allow simple things like renaming of custom Tactics and formations etc. in the game How annoying it is that this is not in the game.
3: Allow the saving of game replays to computer hard disk and perhaps a whole game.
if it does not cause any game play overheads.
4: Have saving of game/season stats of teams/players in manager or tournament mode to a file or print on a printer. Have stats for all computer simed games displayed so that the computer teams/players for each round can be viewed and saved.
5: Better customization of the controls on the game pad. I found that some buttons would swap on the defense mode as I swapped buttons on the attack mode, and vise versa.

I have just read of restricting "blind passing" in the game. An idea I thought of a little while ago that should be in the game. Just as long as the Computer is also thus restricted.
However, allow the new features that I have read that EA are pondering over like “Pro Player Intelligence” to be disabled if the user wishes and if possible. After all, this is a computer game and many players want to enjoy playing it as a computer game, and not letting the computer sim the game too much for them.

Fantasy Features
Customizable game creation. Eg user can create game mods which can have any smaller/larger number of players in the teams. Eliminating/adding players from positions and modify the pitch sizes from 1/2 size to 2 or 3 x normal pitch size, even have walls that the ball bounces off like indoor soccer instead of throw ins.

I am sure improvements like graphics, animations etc will be there as always with most new editions. I rate this computer game as the best I have ever played. Adding too much "realism" can ruin it if not done properly, and with the view that this is a computer game.
MASSIVE MASSIVE ONE I FORGOT!!

Manager Mode -

How about getting offered Manager jobs throught the season?

Eg Your managing a div 1 team and going very well (in october) a prem team sacks there manager and offers you the job. Stuff like that, surely cant be hard to implement. If its too tricky to do it at random times of the season, then at least Jan transfer window!

Thanks again

Hi,

Right generally everything is very good. The game completely eclipses PES. The biggest issue by miles is Manager Mode. It needs alot of work:

1) No-one bids for your players unless there on the transfer list. The biggest problem with this, is if your a smaller club and have a great asset, you can really help yourself by selling them on. If players play well/arent getting games then other teams should be making offers for them.

2) Development needs to be more in depth, its extremely hard to develop certain players on the game.

3) Bring back morale that effects performances.

4) Make more publicity with the game to match the real world, press conferences, players speaking publicly (twitter rants - joking) but things that we as players can say, 'thats just like in real life'. Players with wage increase demands etc. Disciplanry action.

5) I really liked how you could develop the fitness/stadiums/training facilities etc on the previous games. This means you have a choice to spend money on players or other things for the club. Im playing Div 1 on fifa 11 and huddersfield town have a 60,000 all seater? (come on...really?)


thats all i got on that for now, but there is also things in the game.

1) I'd like to see more penalties(im lucky to get 1 a season) in real life, you get one every few games.

2) More injury & suspension penalties. More frequently.

3) More teams perhaps, or at least the better teams. (no Shakthar is a big blow, they could easily be added to R.O.W)

4) More controversy, wrong decisions would be good.(and realistic)

5) You could add more intesity to the big games or 'must win games' making the opening scenes of the match unskippable and the controller doing the 'heartbeat motion' you get for penalties. This could be backed up by larger crowd chants, and commentors talking about match importance.

Thats all i got for now. Hope some is considered(even though im just another number)

Cheers

Ryan
fifa 11 is a great game , but 11 vs 11 pro online clubs , should be banned from playing as any and if they are sent off that should happen , not switching to any , also more cup and tournament options for pro clubs a bit like ultimate teams layout

I think in FIFA 12 there should be international matches in a manager mode!
Many things are needed in FIFA 12. World Cup In manger mode would be awesome. like having the FIFA World Cup 2010 Stadiums in FIFA 12. Not only that having the teams as well. Another thing that us FIFA players need is UEFA Champions league! And the Euro one as well. other things like real Overalls on players and when your team wins a cup having different celebrations like the one on FIFA 11 is just horrible. players looks updates are need and shirt updates too. and league teams from other countries as well for cups. Like for example Where is Copa De Rey For Spain? Other things as well is Cut senses. Also indoor training arena. And really thats about it
Thank You for your time


sincerely,
Daniel (:
when playing on the pro camera setting, there should be a rear view camera so the player can see behind
please please please please make the goal keeper pro mode for pc and make Iran national team and iranian clubs for example Zobahan andSepahan because these two teams are the best clubs in Asia. all of the iranians teenagers
children love EA games especially Fifa series
Its good to now that the Fifa11 was most saled game in iran i think selling the EA games in iran can makes a lot of profits for EA officials
THEY SHOULD PUT SOMETHING LIKE FIFA STREET IN THE GAME BUT THE SAME GRAPHICS AS FIFA 2012
In Fifa 12 I think the A.I. could be improved offensively, Certain star players like ronaldo, messi, kaka, nani, honda, robben, drogba, xavi, villa, rooney, neymar, robinho, pato, bastos, bale, malouda, etc...In real life they all have special moves & techniques.

It would a nice touch to see some of these players actually execute their own moves in an actual game when you're playing them AGAINST them.

I can count on one hand how many long (18 yard+) shots have been taken against me when I'm playing against A.I.
Please add a bit more teams , it would be really interesting if you add Arab teams as well , plus a couple of Arab nations.
I would like to see classic club teams eg man utd 99 treble winners,arsenals invincilbles squad along with some others!!!and more international teams like ivory coast ghana for example!

I also think maybe 'be a ref mode' would be interesting you could ref various matches and gain reputation and things like that!just to add something different!
