FIFA 09 PS3/360 Discussion Thread

Chris Bauer said:
After reading that I can safely say there isn't enough depth in FIFA, nowhere near. I won't be playing it this year, I'm sticking with PES.

...Can you seriously imagine someone saying that, without sarcasm, after reading that?

:SHOCK:

Stunning, absolutely stunning. The depth in the engine is just unreal. Definitely the closest thing to real football we've ever seen, I don't understand (whilst not meaning to sound "shitty" for want of a better word) how anyone could argue with that. The amount of calculations and possibilities is just crazy.

I'm going to put the demo on now and try to get used to the low shooting method they describe.

last night i accidentally took someone out off the ball with Ruud Van Nistelrooy. Then after gaining possession and putting a cross in, with a little help from a schalke defender heading it on i smashed the ball in with Ruud Van Nistelrooy. who then was shown a red card for the previous offence.

i know if i was the other team i would be slightly annoyed.

anyone else had this happen?

this can't happen in the released version, red card offences stop play immediately.

i was very impressed by the defensive error that lead to the goal though. the schalke defender stretching to get the ball and not getting enough of a connection to clear the cross. it looked very realistic

Yeah that is a bit bobbins, hopefully fixed.
 
You don't HAVE to stop the game to produce a red card, so if the ref felt the opposition team had a good advantage he should play on and show the red card at the next stoppage in play. Unfortunately it just happened to be a goal scored by the player to be sent off! :LOL:
 
That depends on some things Tim7. I talked to a professional ref and he said as soon as the player that is going to get the red card touches the ball, the play have to stop and the second yellow or straight red will be shown. If he never touch the ball then the game go on and the result could be a goal and then a red card to the player.

If he touch the ball and gets his red card the ref drops the ball between two players. Don't know what it is called in English.

A drop ball...
 
Fascinating depth in that players guide, I'll have to hibernate with this for a month or so before I feel comfortable enough to go online, it's great to see such attention to detail.

As NC says, a drop ball, however if it's a match between Spurs' first team and the Spurs reserves, it's regarded as a merciful suicide bomb.

i did mean immediately after there advantage had been played, sorry for any confusion.

but in real football if there is an off the ball inccident then usually play stops immediately due to the players stopping and the ref getting invovled to resolve the situation

IGN UK Review

8.0 Presentation
Menus are slick, but with so many they're a little cumbersome.

8.5 Graphics
Hardly an improvement, but still a step ahead of the opposition.

9.0 Sound
The commentary and crowd noises conspire together to create an authentic experience.

8.5 Gameplay
So exactingly realistic it can be off-putting and not without a few gripes, it's still the best FIFA yet.

9.0 Lasting Appeal
The Adidas Live Season will keep it fresh for the next 12 months, and the online modes are a triumph throughout.

8.9 Great Overall
