Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

The problem i have with the stamina system is that the ai couldn't care less about the fatigue of the players when you play them in manager mode. They'll field 11 men with little to no energy left on their bar and all of their players will run and act like they're fully fit. Yet 20 minutes into a game your team are half knackered.

I'm looking forward to seeing if Aaron Lennon still consistently scores stupidly good 30-yard curlers with his Long Shot stat of 60-odd. On Manager Mode in 08 I've got his overall stats up to 93 and his long shot, finishing and curl up to 99 and now he can't fucking shoot. He's constantly got dead dick disease.

Alarm bells ringing...................The Eurogamer hands on is not complimentary to the keepers (which are generally stupid in 07, 08 & Euro.

Comments saying there are moments more akin to you've been framed do not fill me with confidence that they are fixing this.

EA's response that this is still an area of the game that is still being balanced, 2 and half months from release is a clear indication that they will be as shit as they are in Euro.

This could be the games downfall IMO.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I don't really mind that the keepers don't hold on to the ball all the time. What has bugged me in euro and 08 is that they take to long to recover from a save and that they don't get out and try to punch or hold the ball on corners and crosses. As far as I understand this has been worked on so I think at least I will be quite happy with the keepers now.

I wonder why no one in the previews ask Rutter why they choose only 4 seasons. They don't seem to question any decisions at all. Pretty much just repeat the facts that we have heard over and over again.

Big + to EA for adding the speed option, we wanted it and they listened. Maybe you could learn something from this Seabass you piece of **** I'm gonna **** your ******* you ***** ****... ;))

I don't see how to be honest fifa 08 was way worse than Euro 2008 imo the goal keepers do make more errors from crosses and long balls though and they still said it is been balanced and like I have said before who knows what level this ''previewers'' were playing on for online it will always be a semi pro difficulty to not make it 2 hard where as I think it should be set to World Class and if peopel ask why its because your A.I team mates are actually working at their best ability :) instead of their amatuer like decisions on the default semi pro.

but thats just me :P

I think the goalies will be good and better than the previewers have experienced I remember reading how good the goalkeepers were in fifa 08 only for them to be crap!

Man utd vs Chelsea maybe faster paced by default online as their both prem teams vs say a


A.C Milan vs Juventus .. it has got me thinking but hopefully its another one of those offline only options and they just stick it on normal for online :)

They are aiming at September 11th, but it might be delayed a week or two by most. That's what he said in an interview.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Enough of the childish insults. Bans will ensue after this point.

On with the FIFA please...
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

oooh, there are about 34 deleted posts on this page. Is that an Evo-web record?
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

In manager mode, European games are played at night, and stadiums for finals are more accurate (the FA Cup final is at Wembley).


Has anyone seen this posted other than the official site Forms?
