Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Great pics of that Bayern-Borussia... but I can't get why the stadium is filled with yellow supporters... I guess Bayern is the home team in the selection order
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I have always played PES and havent bothered with FIFA for nearly a decade, but I am interested in the next release after seeing some of the screen shots.

Does anyone know if there is a global stat editor out there for the fifa games? I see gameplay as always being poor compared to PES, but think it may be worth attempting to sort out the gameplay of FIFA this year
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

When you play 08 you will see how far the gameplay is ahead of PES these days

so see it being poor will change to saw it as being poor after you have tried it :))
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Man the faces are so embarrassing... I mean I don't really care that much about it but jesus christ look at the latest batch where Klose has scored. All the faces looks like caricatures, even the generic ones! I guess this is one of the problem with next gen graphics in sports games. In older games you could just pretend it pretty much looked like the player, but now it is like a freak show right in your face. Anyways last time I rant about faces.

Would be nice with some videos soon. Hopefully we don't have to wait for Leipzig for that.

:LOL:

what the fuck!! that's terrible! :sick: all of the bayern - bvb pics look awful, from the stadium to the supporters, from the ref to the players! disgusting! :sick:

the scoreboard looks incredibly bad, something i could pull out in 2 minutes. and dortmund is wearing their 06/07 kits, that's 2 years old! makes the game really look like some rushed out job based on fifa 07...

you just can't allow those pics to be over the net, especially not "marketing kings" ea :-S

Thats where I think PES is a lot better. Some of the face packs on this site are incredible since they are based on photos rather than 3d creations. From far, players in PES look a lot like themselves, and imo look great from close too.

San Siro is fucked up in FIFA, and has been since FIFA 06! PES gets this sort of stuff spot on, and actually has some atmosphere!

Heres an example:

This is for PS2 and its amazing:

Wow, a moderator acting like a PES fanboy. I hope I don't have to take this post serious...
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I think in game it will be much better . And about pc , I pray to have such game as console have even with this faces bug .

don't worry, i have high hopes for this game and am still very excited to play it, but those screens are horrible! the version they have surely is a very, very early build, i just can not believe how ea could approve those screenshots to be put online? they make the look so damn shabby, and you can not argue about that! :SS
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

What are they moaning about anyway, screens taken from a game in-motion yeah then this particular frame looks really bad but overall in motion it looks great.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I don't think OPM is doubting the game in motion, but the other stuff thats been unchanged for the last few versions is frustrating. Placebo also spoke about the Manager Mode being unchanged, and the logos on the kits.

Yeah I agree with that. They're not official pics from EA but they're still on the net. It looks horrible indeed but believe me this game is gonna look so much better then FIFA 08.

imo the faces in the pc version looks better!

11/9/08 it is for the demo? as long as it plays better, and that's what everyone says, the graphical part is secondary, at least for me. but that's everything we can put our finger on and judge about right now, so they should really be more careful with the strategy of giving out information. normally they are, as far as i know ea sports.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

ta

the scoreboard appears to change dependant on who is playing. also it looks so much sharper and more proportionate than 08

yep i think so, THAT IS FUCKING AWESOME :|

or maybe there is a different scoreboard for each league which will still be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet:applaud: :DD:DD

You do realize these are EARLY build pics

all the kits and what have you will be the latest ones once the game is out, its the same every year (people whining about last years kit, then when the game is out everything is perfect)
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

bayern-bvb screens are great but I am worried about

-ea sposrts logo on every kit wtf?
-having the allianz arena overun and conquered by dortmund supporters. I`d like to see that in real-life but not in fifa09
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/31391/FIFA-09-dated

With consumer anticipation for the game already sky high – and some hardline PES supporters even admitting that it could be a Pro Evo beater – EA has exclusively revealed to MCV that FIFA ‘09 is set for release on October 3rd.

We knew it anyway but now confirmed.

IGN reporting it as October 9th. Maybe the 9th is the US date though?

Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

You don't see the faces much anyway because the camera is far out

the only time you see them is cut scenes (which most skip), goal celebrations (which most skip) and replays (who would zoom upto the face on a replay!!)

So im not fussed about the faces at all
