Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

i've seen all the videos... and i have some concerns.. namely, volleys and headers... the players dont seem to attack crosses with any great urgency, i want to see players flying in (attacking the ball) with a diving header/volley... i still think pes is the master of this!

you are absolutely right about this ! I'm still analyzing PES/EURO, to find out where the exact difference is...
- animation only ?
- AI behaviour ?

I think the main reason is, that only ONE player is flying into crosses/corners in EURO. So there are no "duels". Single animations are looking ok...

I'm still hoping this gets improved...
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

or the fact they were using a defensive formation its difficult to tell yet but I know I am using a 1-3-1-5 formation in FIFA 09 so I should be having people throwing themselves at the ball and If I'm not I will be disappointed!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

That really grates on 08, the way even with free kicks you can't get players to attack the six yard area, if I have a guy attacking I want to see him break his neck to try and get to the ball... If I press shoot he should throw himself into trying to get a shot off...
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

They need to sort it out so centre backs can come up for corners and free kicks!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

After watching all the videos guys.. things are looking good for fifa no doubt...but it seems to look a lot like a 'PS2' game... I mean to me it seems like Fifa 08 graphics are better... and the other thing is that it seem s to look a bit more arcadey?? .. are EA taking a couple of chapters out of Konami's book ???
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Sure the graphics are worse than FIFA 08... why would they make the graphics worse? Exactly they wouldn't.

totally agree and this seems to be missing in fifa 2009 (it appears from the videos)... i hope they sort it out.

Exactly. The graphics are better. The FifaSoccerBlog guys have played it and they said the graphics were definitely better. So stop the nonsense, CHUCKY666_UK.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I heard that the game is for 80% done, so there's time to get some details done. I'm sure (really hope) that the nets will more realistic than FIFA 08. The nets from FIFA 08 were better then FIFA 07, so there's hope!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

gosh are you realy worried about NETS?:LOL::LOL:jesus, people realy want this game to be 101% perfect!, people will moan about everything. cant please everyone

Come on! Football is about scoring isin't? So the nets must be very realistic to give you the best feeling!

Keep ur hair on mate! Just stating my personal opinion based on my own observations. You have the right to disagree! Didnt mean to make ur b**ls drop!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Not fussed at all but would love it being in.

So far I like the Arsenal v Chelsea vids. Well maybe because the quality is good and smooth. Looks promising. Looking forward for more vids of same quality but with better players.

The videos are way too low quality to judge graphics. We need better resolution and higher bitrates for that.

"Arcadey" usually means the overall game speed, and FIFA09 has several (3) options to choose from. It is possible that these videos are using the "Fast" option, in which case the game speed could be lowered to FIFA08 speed, and you would achieve a more realistic animation speed of player movements.

Got to be honest people want it perfect because it is called... NEXT GEN. That shouldn't just be words it should be a meaning.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I think we can safely say we're now in the current Gen. Developers using the "Next Gen" tag line are only hiding behind it and/or using it to create a buzz/hype for new features in their upcoming title. :)
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

as long as there is some retro hardware leading the hardware charts like the wii, we need to seperate with next/current/preworldwar gen
