Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

It'd be great if the ref could be collided into, or be hit accidentally by the ball once in a blue moon. Small things do more for me, it's why I picked my missus out from the wrap party for Willow.

Another tidbit I'd love is people getting hurt falling into the woodwork, again, once in a blue moon. If they've got an awesome collision system in place now, why not take advantage?
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Whats really getting me lookin forward to fifa 09 is the whole reaction time improvement as well as freedom of movement being improved alot. i was playing 08 last night and so many times i just kept turning to my girlfriend and screaming at her, god this game bugs the hell outta me, occasionaly the language got a bit stronger, lol, but i wont go into detail. the ball is in the air, its heading straight towards my player after i play a lovely high cross field pass, i start to chest it down, and im already thinking what i can do next, but suddenly the whole thing takes forever, and the ball is gone, its been nicked before i can even try to do what i want to do, whereas in the videos i have seen for 09, it looks like you can at least have a chance to play the beautiful game, and do at least what you want to try and do, due to the reactions being alot quicker, rather than feeling like your in the middle of a slow motion movie while being stuck in treacle at the same time.

as i said the other thing that really pleases me is the fact you can now apparently run off line, with complete freedom of movement, i know in fifa as well as pes you can supercancel, but its just not the same, i hate been stuck on the train tracks as i like to call it. so many times i play a through ball, and im just sorta running on a line and waiting for it, and some defender just breaks of his running line and steals it. i love hearing that now you can just come short after through passes are played and just basically go wherever you like, just like you should be able to.

I'm really impressed with the two videos I've watched - Man Utd v Barca and Arsenal v Chelsea.

The refereeing animations look good, running in pointing at the foul and signalling which team the kick has gone to, linesmen signalling for fouls too, linesmen having the flag in the correct arm when signalling throw ins.

One bad thing however - the referees are fucking card happy :((.

The collision system looks amazing! There's a brilliant 50-50 challenge in one of the vids and you can really feel it when they collide! Player animations look excellent too. Overall it looks a real step in the right direction, can't wait to play it :)).

Sad, I know, but the ref and lino also really impressed me, looks so real when the lino swaps the flag over to get the direction right.

I too think there is far more weight to the players than ever before judging by those vids, the foot planting and shifting of the body is almost there now.

Don't know if it will just be once in a blue moon but the ball does hit off the ref in that Man U - Barca video - in injury time at the end of the match as Man U are clearing the ball after the Barca free kick the ball hits the ref's foot.

Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Holy mother of God, look this notice from "Gaming Access":

"NBA Live 09 today included a new feature called LIVE DNA (or something like that)

Let me be the first in the world to tell people how will FIFA Soccer 09 will be with this live DNA. For instance, let's say Carizo (River goallie) goes to Lazio, and Denis (Independiente to Napoli of Italy). Ok, so you turn your X360, your PS3 or your PC the next day, and boom, all the transfers are done. Now, let's say that Denis played as a forward in Independiente, but when he debuts in Napoli, the coach makes him plays not as a forward (number 9, center forward), but as a right forward, or let's suppose that the coach decides that he will play as a position similar to Paul Scholes, not a forward, not a midfielder, but almost as a midfielder-forward.

Ok, so as soon as that happens, the player ATTITUDE will change, so the next time you play FIFA Soccer 09, the attitude of the player will change.

Ok, another example

El Demonio Guerron from Liga, goes to Getafe. Next time you turn on FIFA 09, LIVE DNA adjusts Guerron. And even though in Liga de Quito he played as a forward, maybe in Getafe he will play as a midfielder, and the coach will use his speed to the counter attack.

So, every change that happens in the REAL WORLD, including
  • players attitudes
  • players positions
  • team formations
  • team strategy
  • players injuries
In other words, FIFA Soccer 09 will be EXCACTLY the same as the real life, including the latest player attitudes, the positions... everything, representing on the video game, what is happening with the coaches, their teams, and their players.

The feature is called LIVE DNA and will be available in NBA Live 09. If you see LIVE DNA in FIFA Soccer 09, just remember you heard it first here at GamingAccess.com. If you don't hear about this feature for FIFA Soccer 09, then let's hope that Konami can anticipate something similar, because if FIFA 09 for PC has good graphics, and with the inmense multiplayer game, plus Live DNA, this will be a game extremelly difficult to beat.

-------------------------------------------------

If this rly happens, it's my dream coming true... :w00t:

Cya!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Even more infuriating is when putting in a cross/corner you go to head the ball, but it's cleared and when you attempt to change player to someone on the edge of the box, it forces you to control the player who attempted the header until the opposition regain the loose ball.

Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

There is another good news, but not to good as the last one (my opinion :-pp)

Will FIFA 09 have Game playing adaptability?

This feature have been included in other sports games developed by EA Sports during 2008.

So what exactly is Game adaptability?

Well, in Madden NFL 09 the game let's you play a series of tryouts with biometrical sensor-like graphics (the players are blue, really cool). You feel like you're inside a weird experiment, and you have a set of plays to accomplish. Based on your task, the GAME ADAPTS TO YOU, not the other way around. So, you know excactly if you should select easy, medium, difficult.

For instance, in FIFA 09 (or in FIFA 2010, if they make it there), you will be able to play the tryouts (so to speak), and the game will decide this:

You are just plain bad at deffending, so in defending, the game will play at easy level
You are good to score goals, so at attacking, the game will be played at difficult level
You are just bad at free kicks, so in free kick mode, the game will be played at very easy level
You are a Pro in penalties, so in penalties, the game difficulty will be set to Pro

Get that?
Instead of YOU selecting: easy, medium, difficult, pro for all the settings, you can select a different setting for different aspects of the game
And the best thing is, you can actually play the small mini-games (played only once, when you first start the game), and then, dude, the game automatically selects the difficulty for you!

How cool is that!!!

Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I like the sound of that Live DNA

The injury part sounds good as well so it really is up to date
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I remember the ea devlopers saying you can back track updates as well as using the update you last used online.... so people with the same update you had could play with you online!
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Live DNA isn't in FIFA or any other EA sports game. It's only in NBA Live this year.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I dont think the live dna thing would be for Manager mode.

In manager mode you should be the one telling scholesy where to play and how to act as it is your team.

For online though I like the fact that you could only play the players that are not injured in real life. Would be an interesting twist.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Don't want them happening in Fifa thanks. Just give me the gameplay and stay away from gimmicks please.
