FIFA 10 NG Improvements Thread

Not sad, but there are already a large variety of boots in the game to choose from. I guess we need the pink ones though...

Whatever floats your boat. Most people would just like a bit more choice with the main boot brands.
Again, DLC could be an option...


I thought of a couple more things:
- Remove the rule that stops you changing your captain during a game.
- Be able to choose which players go up for corners.
 
Probably already been said but :

When playing weaker teams such as Stoke, Derby, and other teams they make more defensive errors like we see in a lot of games in real life. For example, they miss-pass balls in attack/midfield or even defense at times.

I would also like to see the idea in the first post "show the referee running and booking the player" but in the tele camere, Furthermore, a lot more realism in terms of cut scenes, when a player is injured badly it's rubbish seeing one second of it and later he limps off.

And the ability to take various shots, we already have curlers, but we need better power shots in my opinion, players like Gerrard, Seedorf, Lampard should be able to take a bullet from 30 yards from time to time.

On the captain front, how do you guys pick yours, all the stuff that shows when you go to the select screen is for the Corner, Free kick and Pen stats etc, so unless you know the team and/or the players it's irrelevant...
 
I think they need to improve the formation menus alot. I wouldnt mind if they just copied the layout from pes which is very good in my opinion (especially the player pentagrams). Why the hell is it that in Fifa09 if you are playing 2 player and one player saves his setting the other player cant move until its finished saving, its just plain ridiculous. Also the front-end generally feels laggy and unresposive when there is no good reason why this should be the case.

Also there should be an option to change the set piece taker without having to go into the Team Management menu - it should be the same for subs as well during the game.

As I mentioned before, I think they should really spend time improving the replays, as they dont look good at all, mostly due to the fact they run at 5fps or something. Also, the art director should be sacked - why do games at night look like the pitch is being lit by a torch, everything is so dark - why do all the players look deformed. They obviously have a superb animation engine but it is being let down by some real sub par art design, surely EA must be able to see this.

Also what the point of having loads of different stadiums if all the pitches and goals are identical when these are the main things you see during the game. Surely it cannot be that difficult to have some different textures for the pitch and have some variation in the design of the goals/nets.
 
^^I think there are some different pitch textures in Fifa 09 as some people have complained that Arsenal's pitch at the Emerites stadium looks patchy/worn unlike what their pitch in real life looks like.

We definatly need more netting styles, even just one more would be good so when your playing at a lower League stadium in a Cup match there are drooping style nets to add to the realism.
 
What about pitches of differing widths/lengths? We all know the rules allow some difference in size from pitch to pitch.

Maybe even allow you to choose, it could be kept simple, if you play through the middle, choose a narrow & long pitch, etc etc.


Also, how the fuck is Man City vs. Inter Milan a derby match? Sort it out Andy Gray!
 
One last thing.

Difficulty in the game should not be about increasing CPU "cheats" or "stats", but about the difficulty and depth of controls. So, in the higher difficulty level, you would be force to play all manual and on the lowest, you could choose to play all auto if you wanted.

Besides, regarding to online, the higher your rank, more "manual" it forces you to play. That was a nice idea of Jumbo in the Fifa 09 thread that led me to think about all this "difficulty" concept.

Implementing this would:

1- Popularise the "all manual" controls in players, as they want to play higher difficulty in the game and people who right now doesn't even bother would be prone to do it because of the challenge.

2- It could potentially fix always playing all the annoying-auto pranks who play online, because as you progress in rank, you would be forced to cross manually, then shoot manually, finally passing manually.

3- Make "difficulty" a more coherent concept.

4- Hey, it's a cool idea, isn't it?

Credits to Jumbo!
 
I don't agree. All manual controls should only be optional. they shouldnt give the CPU team super boosted stats on Legendary difficulty like they've done in Fifa 09. instead the CPU on this level, should play more dynamic attacking and tactically advanced football therefore showing more skill not just a stats boost.
 
I hope they look at the shooting it badly needs to be altered from power=height on button press, playing with the lesser players is a real pain because of it, it's not true in real life so why have it.
I know it's been brought up before but it needs sorting...
 
Reading again the first post I see I forgot a very important thing I wish it was in the game: game sliders!!!!

Just as in NBA 2k9, we should have some sliders affecting gameplay. This sliders, for example, could easily reduce or increase speed 15% (always easier than having to change stats one per on), or any stat overall, or the strictness of referees. That, imo, would make easier to make gameplay suitable to you. For instance, I could prefer less accurate passing, less speed for players and a very strict referee and it should be as easy as adjusting sliders. Make these sliders shareable and the ability to play standard game or slider-personalized games online and it's done. Easy and would make this game tons better.
 
I'd prefer in manager mode if you had two difficulties, one for the mode itself (to control how hard it is to earn money, raise XP of players, do player transfers etc. etc.) and then the actual match difficulty itself.
 
There should be a "it's the 91st minute and I've scored the winner so I'll take my shirt off and run around like an idiot" celebration!
 
Fix the bug in online clubs mode where all the team members get different ratings for the players at the end of a match, i.e. where one person's screen shows that the keeper scored a 9, but another persons screen shows the same keeper as a 7.

It seems like each person's game is calculating the player ratings independently, so either fix the bugs in the code so that it's consistent, or have the team captain's stats sent to all the players at the end of the game.

It might not seem like a big deal, but in our club we pride ourselves on trying to attain the man of the match award, and sometimes you are shown as being the MOTM on your own game but not on someone elses...
 
Add in the lower leagues in Scotland. The way we are playing i think it might be Fifa 20 before i get to play as my beloved Partick Thistle otherwise.
 
Something I realised the other day though, "Blue Square" as in ("Blue Square Premier League" the top league of non league) is a big gambling organisation, as certain countries don't allow gambling sponsors on shirts in Fifa, and EA themselves might not be happy to prominently advertise a gambling company it could be problematic........

I would be happy to have it as the Yellow Triangle as long as we can have the leagues in there...
 
Yeah I know we'd be fine with that, but EA themselves are a bit iffy about the amount of "unlicensed" content, for example there's no Copa Libertadores for that reason, not even a fake version a la ECC/EFF.......
