Right Guys,
It's time for an improvements thread for the next release. The idea is that we post all the improvements we want in this thread in the different sections described below and that this first post gets updated into a tidy list (ala ThomasGOAL's news threads). After a month a poll can be made to determine the top 10/20 improvements needed and then FSB can email this off to the EA community manager. With a bit of luck a number of suggestions / improvements made in this thread will find its way to the teams responsible and we can have some influence to improve the game.
A while ago Joe Booth described the development schedule of the game [http://www.fifasoccerblog.com/2007/09/behind-scenes-at-ea.html]. This means that at this moment in time they are in the pre-production fase, the period were suggestions / comment can still influence the team and its choices. And with that coinciding with a lot of us having played the game for a couple of months I think it's the perfect time to place our comments and pass them on. So with that in mind this thread was made.
To keep the thread tidy and have some overview I thought it would be best to give the suggestions different groups; graphics, sound, AI, control, Managermode, etc making it easier for all of us to see whats been suggested and what further comments can be made. While also making each post clearer by stating in which element you are suggesting an improvement. So with out further ado, here are the catagories;
Graphics: This will be about playermodels, animation, stadiums, pitches, kits, menu's, camera angles, etc. Pretty much everything do to with how it looks.
Sound: Crowdnoices, ballnoices, music, menusounds, etc
Control: Responsetimes, d-padsupport, Heading balance, analog gradients, button assignments, shooting/passing powerbar, shooting/passing styles, etc. Anything to do with how the gamepad control gets translated to onscreen movement.
AI: Off the ball movement, tactical changes, playing styles (arsenal vs chelsea), etc.
ManagerMode: Night games, stadiums assignments for cupfinals, transfer options, team management options, stadiumbuilder, etc.
Editmode: Player edit, team edit, kit edit, etc.
Online: League modes, tournament modes, friend finder, ping ratio per person, etc
Misc.: Anything that doesnt fall within the above.
These are the catagories Ive made, if anybody has any other that need to be added that will happen. At the moment this seems to have most elements. So with everything explained it's time to start posting. It would be better if everybody keeps a certain format to make it easier to keep the thread up to date and save time. I propose adding the catagorie before the suggestion. For example;
Graphics:
- Not look like monkeys
Sound:
- More booing when playing bad
Managermode:
- Night games automatically
Its not to complicated. I'll make a separate post below this one for our Suggestions.
