2010 FIFA World Cup

Let's hope the kids don't moan about the injuries to EA so we get shafted in 11 again...

Fair point.

I would rather it was like this than like 10 - and it's quite representative of how the season has gone for a lot of teams this season too.
 
If there was a mod to make it a champions league game...

Anyone else thinks crossing is poor??

Btw ot...but a next gen rugby game based on the fifa engine is in schedule for summer 2011...
 
I have 3 ongoing qualifications saved that I play a couple of matches from each at a time, Brazil, England, and Japan, the Brazilian one I have played the most as the game feels loads better as Brazil, I just finished qualifying and came 2nd to Argentina (had a horrendous last 7 games with something like 5 defeats in those last 7), just did the live draw and my World Cup group is:

Brazil
England

Venezuela
Japan

I'm sure it's just a coincidence but it's a really weird one!
 
Does Altitude affect players in the game? also what stadiums should I select to see this.

Yeh like placebo said, altitude does play a part on this game... but it isnt by stadium, its by national team... whenever u play bolivia, ecuador and evan mexico at their home ull see your players getting tired well before theirs.

If it was by stadium every team that used the same generic stadium as bolivia would have altitude effects on it, and this doesnt happen.

This is a bit fucked up if u ask me... 1st, u shouldnt be able to have 2 south american teams in the same group, second, england and brazil shouldnt be able to be in the same group neither since they are top seeds.

The seeding is organic based on all the results over the course of the qualifying campaign - but I accept your point :P

All very true, but it's no surprise really to see that the proper seeding system isn't programmed into it.

Yeh that would be ok than.. so they use their real time FIFA Rankings for it.. i can live with it... but what about Venezuela? that one shouldnt happen no matter what.
 
Do they implement the FIFA Rankings in this game or is the seeding based purely on the qualification results?

Or is it a combination of the two?

From what I saw, the actual rankings are the starting point but then results in game change the rankings from thereon in.

Source? Someone else mentioned a new rugby game coming out (on a different site) but it wasn't by EA. Maybe you are on about the same one though??
 
Are these stadiums such as Bolivian one only playable in World Cup qualification mode?

Nope
Also ull get altitude effects no matter with stadium u play agasint bolivia(with them beeing the home team offcourse) The exception is when u play a WC macth or on licensed stadiums, thats what i gathered so far.

Very interesting..has this been verified? or is it just peoples imaginations?

I just find it hard to understand how the altitude can effect things when they haven't even implemented field degradation and real weather conditions that really effect the ball/players/game on the pitch.

Perhaps we're asking for too much at one time.

Altitude has been one of the new "big" fetures they worked on this game.

Btw, has anyone found a workaround for create players with the atributes we want? I really want to create some young guns and other left offs like S.Ireland, Cassano, Balotelli, Neymar.... I tried the CYC method but u cant set players atributed throught there.

Apparently you can have 2 Virtual Pro's in the CYC campaign, one of them downloaded from the FIFA 10 save file and the other one from eafootballwhatever.com.

Perhaps you can keep downloading them from the EA website over and over, who knows, as buggy as the code appears to be it's definitely worth a try lol.

Just make a new gameface > download > export the player to the offline competitions and then dunno, there must be an easy way to boost stats tho.

Btw, does anybody know how to change your Virtual Pro shoes?

The atributes tab doesnt show up on the edit mode, no matther what u do :( , its really fucked up.


Really hope the squad updtated don't ruin my edited players and saved formations.
It will, 100% sure...
 
Altitude effect is included?

Crickey, there are many, many things I would have thought need to be implemented before altitude, no matter that some S African stadia are high.

How about something as simple and ubiquitous as wind, or muddy pitches.
 
Has anyone noticed any AI controlled players using skill moves? EA said this would be included in there 100+ changes they said were made to the game but I've yet to see any players doing anything. I played a match against Portugal and just let Ronaldo etc have the ball to see if they tried anything but they didnt.
 
I'm liking it at the moment. started a world cup from the finals and drew 2-2 with USA and won 3-0 againsts Algeria (although the first half was tight)

on professional all manual and I like it. I can imagine I will be shit against the better teams, but I have scored a nice variety of goals, including a really nice goal with Lampard running onto the ball, heading it down and volleying in one go off the post and in. was a great move.
 
Just had a series of awesome manual games with someone called Aragorn2009(?). Perfect tempo, extremely gradual and building from the back, waiting for people to challenge rather than just passing ahead blindly. Still not used to playing online since I simply could not find Slow+non-any games on FIFA 10 and the left stick dribbling just wasn't up to standard.

Been playing CYC as a centre mid for Poland on Legendary but it's a real chore. The friendly AI is sub-par (World Class isn't it?) and I just can't trust my own defence to do their job. Fingers crossed the friendly AI will be on Legendary for FIFA 11.
