Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

The jostle button is vital in the game. In real life you do a mix of "straight" tackling and covering and "holding position" defense. In fact, in real life I play a lot the "jostle until tackle is clear" type of defenseive football. Of course, it depends if the opposition is running or moving slowly. And I'm good at it, I was begging for that in the game, I want to be able to close spaces and that way you're reducing the opposition angle to dribble, leaving him only the speed factor to brake you, but knowing that by this time there's already another defender covering your space.

Maybe my english is a mess to describe such specific situations...

Edit: Oh, I was picked as MOM in a tourney playing left side back for barcelona when I was 10, and that was because my trainer taught me how to defend in close / open spaces. But then I had more speed and hair...

I must admit I struggle with the jostle as you slow far too much... :((

yeah after a few checks they are both next gen

maybe the scoreboard is different for friendlies

I think you're most likely to be right, Premier League and other League games might have one scoreboard and international matches could have another.

I agree it's better than just holding a button but I hate the combo button thing, we have a sprint, run and jostle button so why not a tackle button, 'X', you can then choose to sprint or run and jostle or tackle or any variation?...

X is double-press innit?

Well, my personal opinion is that the more complez they can make it, the better. Going away from the "Hold A for the player to do everything for you" type system is a nice start in my humble opinion. :

Wow. I just realised that in nearly a decade of owning PES and FIFA I have never tried either the Master League or the Manager Mode. The only managerial game's I have played are Football Manager/Championship Manager (back in the day) and SWOS 96-97. I really should start. Its sound's like a lot of fun.

Same here, for some reason it feels strange for me to play manager type mode on any console football game, while I have FM on my PC
