I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF_________ (fill in the blank guys)

Hit EA where it hurts guys ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$).
:confused: :hump:

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF THE TURKISH LEAGUE .............

Turkish league does deserves more respect...

KEEP it Coming guys...

Let's hear it!!!!!!!!!!!!:rockman:

They kill the overscripting, and implement a new graphics engine which can display players which look realisitic instead of ackwardly moving automatons.

im bying fifa 2006 only if they improve the whole game!

im buying fifa 2006 only if they have better designs on the outside of the BOX ! :)

i am getting fifa 2006 only if they reduce the selling price

I'm getting it if they have Canada Cup

Make Gameplay and roster patches available on their website and Xbox Live. This means when there are transfers in real life the game can be patched to show that. Most of their other games do have these patches. Fewer generic faces. Give us all the Serie A & B kits and teams up front. Give us SAMPDORIA, not Doria, etc. More varied opponent attacks. Less adaptive AI that produces miracle wins and draws. Post how much stoppage time is coming, instead of stretching the 90th minute to allow the computer opponent to pull out one of these miracle goals. Better boots. More stadiums including Home Depot Center, Bombonera, Monumental.
No more unlocking stuff we already paid for! Need for Speed Underground 2 has an open environment, open up FIFA 2006.
Change the career mode to allow you to take your favorite team, whatever league, whatever division and play the season. Keep FIFA 2005's create a tournament mode.

Only if they have more Latin American Clubs and National teams, they are neglecting have the world and the half that Worships football

im buying fifa 2006 only if they DO something about the Damn Quiters in the online play.

just let them LOSE with the score that is at the moment they quit the match.

the main problem right now (fifa 2005) is that some key teams are missing. I'm speaking of CSKA, Fener, Dynamo Kiev, Shakhtar, Lokomotiv... these teams are Champions League regulars.

Russian, Turkish and Ukrainien championshps are very strong and are developing very fast..

They should be in the game..
Local gamers community can easilly help with databases, kits, faces...

Besides, it's the only way to make russians and ukrainiens buy OFFICIAL game)

PS and more international teams of course!! NETHERLANDS!!!

only if EA put in all intl teams, the game is for 2006 the year if the WC!!!

i am getting fifa 2006 only if they fire everyone who worked on the last 5 fifa's and create a new football game engine from scratch.

Harsh statement. Still, I feel this might be the only thing that returns FIFA games to old glory (remember FIFA 98,99 etc?). Point well made!!!!!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONSES FRIENDS.
EA WILL ONLY LISTEN WHEN THEY THINK THEIR POCKETS MIGHT GET LIGHTER!

SO KEEP IT COMING!!!!!!!!!!
:rockman:

i am buying FIFA 2006 if they improve the physics engine include a World Cup Qualifing Mode with all the countries from Germany to Grenada with proper uniforms and kits:hump:

i am getting fifa 2006 only if they add all the features Madden has

I will only buy FIFA 2006 if there is a indoor stadium,
feyenoord stadium de kuip, a FIFA editor (like the TCM one) including in CD, all Holland Casino Eredivisie teams get their
own Goalkeeper kits, 2nd dutch division Gouden Gids Divisie,
all kits in 2GK size, Champions League + UEFA Cup fully licensed and a option to play both tournaments without playing career,
and the Dutch 11 team.

Wow you are a freaking loser. And not just you. EA doesn't have time to waste on everybody who makes theses types of forums. Instead of saying that you will only buy FIFA if so and so happens, why don't you just add your thoughts to the Requests thread. Let's try some constructive criticism that is practical instead of just saying the whole game needs to be redone

He's only talking decency and common sense. The whole game should be rebuilded from the ground zero, because it's pyle of [cenzored] for now. There is no way you can improve existing engine.

:confused:
Relax... take a deep breath...
For your information, most of us have been buying FIFA games since you were in kindergarten (just kidding mate, I get what you are saying).
Look, most of us are tired of seeing this game spiral downward year after year, despite our constructive criticism. So, we are trying a different approach (REVOLUTION BABY). :rockman:
Besides, EA could learn a thing or two from the many ideas we put forth in these forums. Also, these forums are here so that we can vent our frustrations regarding EA Canada’s inability to give us all what we want/and pay for.
Most of us just post what we think, and leave the insults to the less matured!!!!

Respectfully yours,
The “Freaking Loser” ;)

P.S.: In any case, we welcome your insight as well(H)

I'll buy Fifa 2006 only if it is better than or equal to WE8........

I am buying FIFA 2006 only if...
EA includes animations for players being substituted (like in FIFA 2002).
Why would they leave that out?
:f***:

I'll buy FIFA2006 if EA teams up with Konami. Imagine PES4 unbeatable gameplay but with Fifas presentation polish, licences & advertising budget.

Now that would be football heaven. :rockman:

DALE

...they gave Ronaldinho a rating of *98:crazyboy:

...well, I'll still buy it...but if they had a serch engine to find players, add more faces (Kaka:(), add ACTUAL YOUTH players after the zidane's & buffon's retire....I want to see Soldado, Arbeloa, Javi Garcia=Real Madrid B (youth team)(H)

I will buy fifa if they have holland for gods sake

I'm just wondering but do you put something about holland in every thread?

im buying fifa 2006 only if they have an accurate argentine league with real faces and real kits and only if they update the create a player because its hard to make a player that somewhat resembles urself,i made my self on the game but the texture isnt right and i cant get they retarded look that they created players have,i cant explane the look but i think u guys know what im talkin about....for example..ne of u know that smackdown series? well in smackdown JUST BRING IT its really hard to make a wrestler because the guy looks like a retard.

it would be nice if u can put your face on there,design the texture on the computer then send it to fifa and they upload it to the fifa online and you can download it from there...like in tony hawks underground

EA also has or had, the "put your face in the game" option for their NHL game. It was pretty awesome. Can't figure out why they don't do it for FIFA (at least for the PC version).
As for their create a player option, it sucks :f***: .
Game content seems to get worst each year:-puke:

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF they include the Greek and Turkish leagues.

I didn't buy 2005 for that reason only and I await for WE8 to edit the teams in the eastern ML mode to the Greek league teams.

Would you be satisfied if EA gave you the ability to create some of the Teams in the Greek or Turkish leagues. Look, they are not going to feature leagues that don’t have huge interest among U.S. gamers. For example, I wish they included the Peruvian league (I’m Peruvian); but they’re not because this league is not followed by a lot of you guys (neither is the Korean league... hmmm).
Anyway, what would you say if they gave you create a team instead, would you be satisfied, somewhat satisfied, dissatisfied?
In any case, I feel you pain... :boohoo:

if the teams don't have the real kits I wouldn't be satisfied and that has to do with the gameplay.

Right now the way FIFA is I don't see why I should buy it instead of WE8,9,10,11 etc. The only thing that pisses me off is not having the real teams. I can make them in WE, they won't be exact but I can download patches if I really wanted to. If i could make them in FIFA then the only thing to compare would be gameplay and in that department WE wins hands down.

But if the real leagues were there, partaking in CL and UEFA etc. then I would buy both WE and FIFA.

I will buy FIFA 2006 if i'm forced a gunpoint to buy it...actually.

I play on XBOX. No W11 there. Everyone seems to love this game however.

I will buy it only if Netherlands is in the default list of teams and if they make a creation center fully customized and internal.

i will buy fifa 2006 only i they put ronaldo & ronaldinho in the caver box.:rockman:



i am kidding, i would buy the game only if they immprove the edit mode and the gameplay 90% same as w11/pes then in that case i will get it

.....If its a carbon copy of FIFA 98 RTWC!!!

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF they can manage to make a game more similar to PES 4 and KEEP the nice FIFA licenses. In other words: Call Konami or send a spy.

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF: they remove the script handling. Im tired of not beeing able to have 100% controll over my players. I want to be able to foul the goalkeeper, kick my opponent down to the ground when the ref is not watching.

Yeah rebuilding the engine would be good.
Also i guess we know what many people wants....
BRING ARGENTINA, TURKEY AND GREECE LEAGUES!:kader:

Heck, I’ll settle for a carbon copy of FIFA 2002!:taz:

(1) Write a brand new and much improved gameplay and AI engine...not tweaked, but brand new.

(2) "crowd AI" script that makes the crowd behave like a real crowd.

(3) Real editing capability, out of the box.

(4) A commitment/oath to NOT do to the soccer market what EA did to the gridiron (Madden) market.


Player movment and crowd reaction are the very things fans know the most about, period. Get that right, and I'll buy it, even without (3). With (3) also, I might even advocate it.

(4) is the dealbreaker though. I don't want EA imposing itself monopolistically in the football arena the way it id in freezing out SEGA/ESPN in the girdiron arena.

I think everyone here knows that we'll all buy FIFA 06 whether it sucks or not, because everyone knows that EA does make good games (even if we feel they are capable of more) and we're all curious of what the new one will look like.


Hi, I'm Steve by the way :)

Actually I did not buy Fifa2005 and dont plan on buying future games......UNLESS reviews are really good........

Look Steve, you keep buying and they’ll keep giving you the same crap. :sb9: :-puke:

You stop buying and they’ll stop, pause for a second and consider what you are saying. Not because they care about what you think, but because they want to make the biggest possible profit.


:Bow: :hump:

I didnt buy 2003, got it for christmas, didnt buy 2004, got it for christmas, bought euro 2004 because of the fact that it was in portugal, didnt even buy 2005, and why well the menues were too slow and supposedly 2005 they were fast so whatever here goes... i'll only buy 2006 if they make the career mode like madden 2005 if not better, roster updates, edit options for players and teams, create-a-team option like in madden, better gameplay, indoor soccer, better net physics.. i could go on and on but you all get the point.

Only if....

it's a LOT cheaper (100 USD here in Argentina!!!! That's almost a month salary for us!!!)

it has REAL gameplay...

it is a footbal SIMULATOR, not just a lame game... every FIFA is worse than the previous one!! Last good FIFA I remember: 98, and by that year's standards.

it has REAL graphics and animations...

it has REAL atmosphere...

I could dribble, not just play with passes...

To sum up, if it were NEARER to reality... at this time there's NO WAY FIFA can outdo WE/PES...

Regards

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF >>>>>



They have the 1st Mexican Division , Argentine League , HOLLAND , More Player Faces , Create a Team and Kits Option , More Celebrations , Edit Players in the Game , Game DON'T Freeze when changing Formations , Historic Players and Teams , More Unlock Options and many more...;)



:rockman:

well said...btw isnt primera div de liga mexicana on there already :confused:

yeah i agree with sebastian because winning eleven kicks A$$
cause you can edit your uniforms and they have mant cool uniform patterns that you can go by and when you score you can really feel it inside yourself and plus they celebrate with the cup and when you make a player it doesnt look tacky like the fifa create a player,it fits just nicely with the whole squad,they have legendary squads like legend argentina legend brazil etc.
this proves that licensing doesnt make a difference.atleast their argentina kit is descent and you can edit what you dont like,

clearly fifa takes it in the lupiti compared to pes/we

good luck EA because i'm loosing hope

i buying fifa 2006 only if they have 1 team from Romania ..{at least 1 ..like Steaua Bucurestii} or if the online mode is better!

I agree on every point. I played W11 for the 1st time the other day and was pissed to see the fact that W11 has Classic Argentina and Brazil with Maradona and Pele, all this while FIFA still doesn’t bring that back. I hear they had it once as well.
I would love to play with classic squads form the 60s, 70s and 80s. EA has the $$$$ power to do it if they want to. I haven't played pes yet (the XBOX is limited to FIFA), but i am sure it has more emotion than FIFA.

So... I am buying FIFA 2006 only if they bring back classic teams (use them as rewards, heck I'll play for that!!!).
:mrpimp:

If its worth buying

And the classic teams thing, coz that would be so cool! Arsenal '98 double winning side!

The licensing does make a huge difference, if you ask any mother, father, or any other person who doesn't know about the gameplay being shoddy in FIFA they would go for that game because of the hype and licensing. EA are very good at what they do and thats not compile good sports games, it's making lots of da moolah! We will always get the FIFA games because they promise lots of thing that we have requested, put them on the box and sells it to us regardless of whether we know its a con.

And yes, if we stop buying, they'll stop making, if they're not making money from something they'll stop it because its not worth their time in money.

I've been dumarse since 2002!! woo bin here longer though

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF ea put in as much effort towards it as their colleagues do year in year out for the madden franchise.

vivá la revolution !

Just read on OXM that W11-8 is coming to the XBOX Feb 2. “Woooop there it is” folks… another reason to drop the money hungry jerks at EA.

****************PLEASE READ THIS********************
EA fears competition, just look at what they did to SEGA. EA bought the exclusive rights to the NFL. What does it mean? Easy they have eliminated SEGA (and everyone else) from the race. The awesome ESPN NFL Football franchise no longer breathes air. Nobody except EA can now make a game with the NFL license (at least not until 2010). Say goodbye to the awesome gameplay of ESPN 2k5, say adios to paying $20 for a solid game that kicked Madden ass, kiss healthy competition between football game makers goodbye!!!!!!!!!!!
And give thanks to the mighty EA for monopolizing the game industry even further. Oh yeah, they tried to do the same with the NBA but the NBA said NO thanks!!!

So what do you guys think about EA now!!!!!!!!

100% correct man!!!!!! They are even making the EURO Champions cup.
If they could they would buy-out every other soccer game maker and complete their MONOPOLY.

Shame on you EA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :f***:

Yeah would've been nice if the official CL anthem etc, were in 2005 but i hope it'll be in 2006.

Shame on EA :f***: :f***: :f***: :f***: :f***: :f***:

I'll buy FIFA 2006 if there is:

1. More accurate team and player ratings

2. Country carreer mode

3. Canada national team (see #2)

4. Less buggy carreer mode.

5. Improved CAP (sock length, more hair style varyaty, face you create is shown in menu and in squads)

6. Create-a-team.

I am glad that I am not the only one who notices that FIFA 2005’s career mode has bugs. EA never bothered to check their product properly before release.

EA has gone through lawsuits that accuse it of making their employees work ridiculous long hours, without proper compensation, in the hopes that a particular product (think FIFA 2005 here) gets released on a previously determined date.

I think EA releases unfinished products, what do guys think?
:jambo:

Maybe, what are the bugs in career mode ?

Originally posted by SuRFy

Here are just a few:
-Game freezes when changing formation (from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3 etc).

-When you change languages (English to Spanish etc) your progress gets left behind as if you were playing with a different user or something... same thing happens with created players.

I played on XBOX by the way...

None of that :sb9: on the PC Version.

EA listen up. I will only buy the game if you friggin retards stop spending all your time making 4 soccer games a year and just make one that is great. I dont need FIFA 2006, then 2 months later Total Club Manager 2006, then 2 months later UEFA 2006, and then to sum them up every 4 years, FIFA RTWC 2006. Make one good game instead of thinking that you can make 4 games out of one. No friggin wonder all we have gotten for the past 3 years is better GFX, new kits, and first touch control. I would like to sit down after my $50 purchace and say wow I got FIFA 2006 and like the name, it has all to do with FIFA, sure if you guys start selling the FIFA games for $20 like SEGA did this year then I wont care about spending the money for all 4. There is not way in hell I will pay $200 just to have the full FIFA experiance. I will pay $50 though.

Hypocrite mate? No offense taken (really).:rolleyes:

First of all, this forum discusses Video Gaming topics, not other market issues. Microsoft’s XBOX has not attempted to banish competition in the same way that EA has banished Sega’s awesome NFL2K series.

Now, do you want to discuss what Sony has done in the industry (outside of gaming of course) they are not exactly what you call saints either (grab a book and read). I am assuming of course that you play on PS2, because for you to own a computer with Microsoft’s “monopoly” ridden software, now that my friend would also be... “hypocritical”... :drevil:

I tell you what though, if you are still really worried about looking at the overall picture (and not focus on topics as they relate to the video gaming industry) why don’t we have a nice six year discussion on how corporations implement unfair market practices; but please, not in this forum... we are supposed to be talking about video gaming... remember?

Respectfully yours,
The “Hypocrite” :rofl:

P.S.: Oh yeah, I’m buying FIFA 2006 only if they drop all “Big Name Monopoly-Ridden Child Labor-Endorsing Corporations” that show up in their game... NOT! :jap: :mexican: :ewan:

Take no offense to this. :)

I have not bought a Microsoft Operating system since my somputer with windows 95, they can kiss my :f***: I still get all service packs, who is laughing now M$. I wasnt talking about the XBOX directly I was talking about the company as a whole. I know sony are not saints and have done wrong. Example Squaresoft. There is however a big difference between the two. Big example, Sony did not try to :hump: toshiba on the price for the GPU's chips for the PS2, guess what company DID try to :hump: Nvidia for the GPU chips for their system. Microsoft!!!!!!!!! It is a wonder why Nvidia started working with Sony over 2 years ago on the PS3's GPU. By all means try to run 90% of your computer games on a computer not running a Microsoft operating system.
Sony is pushing the "Cell" chip towards the PC market in the future, Why you ask. They want to be gone with this seemingly need to run a form of windows for programs. They have designed the chip to be able to do things like, if you want to run a Unix OS, you can still run a windows coded program, and vise versa. I see that as revolution instead of holding us back. If I did not use my PC as a gaming machine, by all means I would not run a Microsoft OS.

Like I have said before, if EA just friggin fixes the bugs next year and doesnt introduce news ones, I will be a very happy man.

Almost everything i want has been stated in this & other threads & in fact other forums & even those of previous years. But nothing really changed. Thats why I'l only buy FIFA 2006 if the EA GUYS actualy READ all the stuff in this forum & other forums AND actualy take into CONSIDERATION our thoughts & requests instead of just dishing out d same fare year 2 year. And if they DON'T.........i hope all u guys here keep 2 ur word & NOT buy d game. We've all talked d top & now we have to walk the walk. :kader:

Speaking of firing everyone, what ever happened to the group of guys who made FIFA98? I mean, they had imagination and created a real nice game given the limited technological resources of the time. Heck, where are the people who made FIFA-WC- 2002. That game had passion (awesome celebrations and atmosphere).

:rockman: :bob: :lui: :jacko: :clapwap:

So then, I’m only buying FIFA 2006 if EA rehires the people who made FIFA 98 and FIFAWC 2002. Oh crap wait... let me guess, they are all working for Konami now...
:rofl: :kader: :brow: :gavin:

i'll buy Fifa 95 or 96 :rockman: :rockman: :rockman: :rockman:

Yeah ... When you think about it, making all these wishlists (even tough most of them are absurb anyway) is just a big waste of time! EA's fifa development team truly screams lack of passion, wich is a damn shame really! Someone wrote in another thread that they remove all the features so they can implant them 3 years later, unknowing that the fans see through the sham. If something great dosn't hapen to the 2006 version, i won't even bather to download it anymore ..

Hey, if that isn’t the truth, they sure as hell do a great job at making it seem that way don't they?

The worst thing about it is that no one in the industry (on the media side) is willing to bring it up. I mean sure, they write about the game needing better commentating or other small gameplay issues, but overall no one calls it like it is. This is a multibillion-dollar industry here; somebody in the media should be more critical of those imaginational challenged guys at EA Canada.

Crap, a lot of you guys come up with tons of awesome ideas for the game everyday, why can’t they?

Actually they don’t even have to come up with ideas at all. All they have to do is let fans tell them what they want to see in the game. Aren’t they supposed to be reading these forums for customer feedback? I heard (actually read) the FIFA Producer once say that EA pays attention to the insight gained through forums. And he actually named Soccergaming.com. So what the heck then, what is the freaking problem?

What part about “you guys suck and need to be more creative and passionate” do they not understand?
:f***: :hump: :f***: :hump: :f***:

Sigh I guess they don't understand “you guys suck and need to be more creative and passionate” the same way we don't seem to understand that "they don't give a damn about us coz its all about the $$". Disgusting man........ :kader:

I would buy FIFA 2006 if they could make a whole new game for once (it would be a first since 1998)

im gonna feel bad for you guys when you eventually get 2006 and look in the box at your present:sb9: :(

I would buy FIFA 2006 when it comes out on the 1st day in the shops

I would like them to make it even more like the tv..add substitions (like in uefa champs) longer goal celebrations..show the players come out for the 2nd half...cut scene of manager etc

Who says all of us are buying it? We are not getting it! Not until they put all the stuff we want in the game. Things like, EMOTION, Sub Animations, S. American Teams (COLOMBIA, PERU, ECUADOR etc), Cup ceremony celebrations, a real editing option (like W11 where you can manipulate pixels to create your own logos etc).

Anyway, EA knows exactly what we all want.

Its because of people like that that EA are laughing their asses off all the way to the bank. If the general public is so excited to take whatever crap is offered to them.......why should the guys at EA even bother.........

I'd be happy with FIFA if they added more atmosphere to the game, added similar gameplay to Winning Eleven 8, and when playing a "quick match" or whatever the hell it's called don't just let us choose from the starting eleven and bench that are default picked. I don't want to have to go into the settings and change the bench whenever I want to play with new players. Have an option where you can arange the starting eleven, bench, and reserves quickly. Apart from that they should just copy Winning Eleven...

FIFA could definitely use an editing feature like that of W11. Although I am just learning to use it, I see the potential it has. You can be creative with it. The Player editor is awesome.

Seriously, we need good editing tools (just copy what W11 has), not the crap we got in FIFA 2005!

only if they get the argentine AFA league in and the the argentine license for the national team kit!


oh yeah...and put better create a player...the players looked very awkward in gameplay....anybody notice that?

To me, on a personal level, one of the biggest disappointments when I popped in my FIFA 2005 for the first time, was the realization that Argentina’s kit looked like a darn t-shirt, not a soccer jersey worn by one of the most historic teams in the world (the jersey Maradona took to glory).

And they couldn’t even get the number of stripes right, or included the flag on the upper left (they don’t need a freaking license to display a nations flag!!!!!!!!!!).
:kader: :f***: :kader: :f***: :kader: :f***: :kader:

Ill buy it only if it has the ROAD TO WORLD CUP 2006 with all the national teams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the orignal quialyfing games for each national team

:rockman: :rockman: :rockman:

only if they don't make another WE game and mines are already damaged or scratched

only if...
*goalkeepers are better
*computer doesn't score every chance
*gameplay is more like pro evolution series
*national cup / champions league are included in the season mode
*more faces and attributes like the reality...

Anyway... I had been playing fifa since fifa 1996, more things means more powerful pc we need to have and the more dics we need to install...

I like this....

Buying FIFA06 if:
(suggestions for improvement...)

- "Create a Tournament" is more flexible. Say I wanted to do something like the UEFA cup. 32 teams is boring.

- More national teams from Africa / Asia / Oceania.

- More club sides from around the world. Replace Belgian league with Argentinian league and put Anderlecht in RoW. THERE ARE NO AFRICAN / OCEANIAN CLUB SIDES!!! Put them in.

- Make tournament finals at a neutral venue. The "home" team always seems to have the bulk of fans.

- When the away team scores I want to HEAR their fans.

- When a Spanish / Italian team scores the fans' reactions are very different to that of an English or German team. A nice big loud "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL" for the Spanish fans please.

- Bring back snow. That used to be so much fun.

- Allow fouls on the keeper. Also book the keeper and give free-kicks for time-wasting.

- Make it possible to make illegal back-passes to the keeper and give indirect free-kicks accordingly.

- Make more players join the attack - My team has two players who score all the goals, barring the odd set-piece.

- Make the defending team less standoffish. There is too much counter-attacking.

- Make referee and linesmen visible in the game.

- I want to know when subs take place. Animations would be nice but just a little caption would do. With the commentary switched off I have no idea.

- Replace John Motson or at least give him a few more lines. Definately replace Ally McCoist.

- Allow editing / creation of teams and players.

- In the PGA game you allowed course creation. Why not stadium creation? Use your bloody imaginations!!!

- Why do the "star" players do the same celebration every time? When Ronaldo scores a late consolation goal he still goes on like he's won the flippin' champions league.

- Make the crowd sizes more realistic. When I play Cheltenham vs Kidderminster at the Nou Camp I get a capacity crowd!?!

- I don't think for a second that any of these suggestions will be implemented.

I doubt it very much PAFC , as EA are not really into making the gameplay more realistic.

But if you have any more tips on how to make the stadiums look even more realistic than they already do .... ;)

Unfortunately you are right about EA not implementing any of the great ideas you and the rest of us post. The only way we could get lucky is if some Big EA executive stumbled into this site and read all of it... fat chance though, he is probably too rich to care and too busy spending all the money he makes from idiots like us who keep buying the game no matter how much it sucks.
No sense in telling you guys to stop buying the game, someone will replace those who switch to W11 or any other game that comes our way... EA is a huge money making machine and it would take a whole lot for them to change their philosophy...

ill buy fifa 2006 if they redo the whole game. they cant survive with the current match engine..............

FIFA feels very arcadey when compared to W11 (some people might like that though). I don't, not after playing W11 for the first time. The only down side to W11 is the gameplay graphics, no HD available. Still, the amount of gameplay feedom W11 has (as long as you learn the game well; it takes a few months) blows FIFA away.

So, I am buying FIFA 2006 only if they include more gameplay options so that the game becomes a true soccer simulator.

only if EA brings back the ability to mess the goalkeeper up...Back In Fifa 98 you could slide tackle them :f***: 's and it never ceased to get old.

You are definitely in good company with that statement. Very few gamers actually disagree with you.
We all want it back, yet EA still doesn’t give it to us. Maybe next year…NOT!

im buying fifa only if THEY HAVE THE QUALIFICATION TO THE WORLD CUP!!!!!!!!

If they stop pissin around and put in what we all want.

eg Creation centre

well actually i will buy it anyway

yeah. as long as they dont take away good feature that we already have. Although i think they have taken everything good out anyway

If they stop pissin around and put in what we all want.

well actually i will buy it anyway

If FIFA 2006 is going to have a Road to the World Cup mode they better include great editing options. I say this because you know well that they are not going to have all the licenses. That means we have to fix some of the national teams ourselves (and I don't mind, I did it for FIFA 2002). But without a good Creation Center I am not getting the game.

P.S.: Why would you buy the game anyway? That is exactly what they want to hear, that you are buying their game no matter what kind of crap they put forth. As a consumer you should demand more for your money!

Use the Eyetoy :) EA have used it in the SIMS URBZ whereby you can make your own wallpaper.... how about allowing us to make ourselves properley in the game instead of the ****e and restricted player creation centre? Come on EA!!

Other Changes.... Graphics need an overhaul... they look as tired as FIFA 2003 did! Gameplay needs to be made more exciting! more of an atmosphere. Plus stop regenerating old crappy lines of commentary from as far back as FIFA 03!! move it on a stage! I agree 100% with the update online function that would be brilliant.

Updated line-ups would be really nice for those who have access to online- gaming. The bottom line though is that there are a lot of cool things that EA Canada could do with this game, but for some reasons they decide to keep the game boring, dispite our complaints :s***:

I would buy FIFA 2006 if they include every National squad (like FIFA 2002) and give us a good editing tool so that we could fix the jerseys they get wrong (cause you know they’ll get a lot of them wrong). :rockman: :lui: :rockman: :lui:

Regarding "old crappy lines;" while graphics will certainly improve, what I am really hoping for is a new attitude from the people at EA Canada. FIFA needs to make a leap towards the future in terms of variety, options, realistic game play and awesome game content (classic teams, more national squads, great sub animations etc.). And also, FIFA needs to change the announcers and sub them with guys that scream and go nuts after a goal. Replace the 2 Spaniard commentators with 2 crazy Argentinean announcers. :rockman:

I want to hear :lui: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :lui: when I score.

I AM BUYING FIFA 2006 ONLY IF it's better than pes4...

want to hear GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL when I score.
But just about everyone else want's to hear "GOOOOOOAAAALLL" who lives in South America. Only undead commentators say "Gool"...exepting Ally McCoist of course :) .

As for the european players here (and those who follow euro leagues) PLEASE....NO! I dont want some random Argentinian screaming "GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL" every time I play as frikkin Oxford united of English football league 2! Get what I mean? LOL.

it's better than pes4...
Better reach for your pocketbook now...and get ready to shell out some dough. :ewan:

i think fifa is gonna have a WORLD CUP MODE like in 02 cuz of the upcoming World Cup 06 in Germany... :rockman:
i would really wanna see more teams ...

Buying Fifa 2006 only if Royal League is in the game!

I'll Buy fifa 2006 if there will be an editor database where you can change the faces/socks/sleeves/age/skin color enz. of the players and also you have to choose every team you want to play with in career mode.... now after 5 clubs every player is gone..... i played with ac milan and maldini was gone but a player with the age of 18 came instead, that is just terrible


GrtZ, Jari

I'll buy the game anyway and i know it will be a piece of crap like any other fifa .

Same as Ashraf! its like a really crap drug

I buy fifa if I was drunk ou crazy. pes&we 4ever

I'll buy the game anyway and i know it will be a piece of crap like any other fifa .
Then why buy it in the 1st place??? :| Unless you're gettin the bootleg version...that'll screw EA good (H)

Let the freaking GK be booked whenever he fouls you in the box!!!
It's stupid to see that only a foul is given...PK :nape:

I won't spend a penny on FIFA anymore, even if they come out with an excellent game. Looks like I'll be getting it through downloading. I feel everyone should do the same, see how EA likes it when we kick 'em where it hurts.

I won't spend a penny on FIFA anymore, even if they come out with an excellent game. Looks like I'll be getting it through downloading. I feel everyone should do the same, see how EA likes it when we kick 'em where it hurts.

I have never bought fifa since day one. I either borrowed it or got it through other methods. The only game I have ever bought from EA sports is nba live. Overall, I believe all soccer games as of today have lost their luster of the past. In those days, it was all about scoring lots of goals and how you scored them. Now, it is way too complex and over the top. How about keeping it real simple? Here is a thought: I can play ISS all day, but I cannot play winning eleven or Fifa for more than 30 minutes without getting bored. It really sucks.

I will continue to buy FIFA because I just can't help it. But I do feel that it is starting to get pretty old.
I would like to see:
1. Improve create a player. Its horrible. Tiger Woods create a player is the best ever! Use that one if you could.
2. Get rid of the magnetic ball feel. Winning Eleven was able to create a loose ball. Like you are actually chasing it. I never score the same goal in Winning Eleven. I'll score the same goal 3 times in one game on FIFA. Something has to be done about that. Don't get me wrong, FIFA graphics are way better.
3. I need a better crowd. I can't stand to see them in the background.
4. Work your asses off to get as many real faces in the game as possible. I want the real players. Especially when it comes to the Premier League.
5. Get some more leagues and teams of course. EA is obviously working on that.

1- Better ball physics is a must. This will fix most gameplay issues with Fifa, I think. Just make the ball do realistic, unpredictable things.

2- Make it harder to take away posession. It's too easy now.

3- Better create-a-player, and add create-a-team. Alos allow us to edit existing players, ala WE8...

4- I personally want more national teams added before adding any more club teams. 39 national teams in 05 is too few, especially with the World Cup coming up. There should be at least 100 national squads with the ability to call up any player you want.

I am buying FIFA 2005 only if players won't pass left when i press up button.. Playstyle is getting worse and worse since FIFA '98. I am loosing too much nerves playing this game.. I would need about an hour to count all things that annoy me in that game.. I am playing the game just because i am masochist..

If something doesn't change I'll give my hands up.

I'll buy fifa only if someone point a gun to my head

Hehehe quite alot ov thought put into this...but yeah quite alot ov good points but yeah i believe that world cup class is to predictable they always score in the same way mostly by headers so yeah if you learn how to defend that u'll be winning to easily like me :rockman:
and we've heard this time and time again start with any club in career.. i reckon that ea has got it right cauz no top team in the world would give there team to an unexperienced manager come on ..

oh yeah and one more this world cup players in fifa2005 never do any moves like rolling the ball or anything its just lame when im versing teams that have players like ronaldo or C.Ronaldo etc. id expect them to do atleast one move a match minium

from reading about championship league 04-05 / FIFA05 1/2, it seems EA has already addressed:

-sub cut scenes
-more freedom during corner kicks
-ability to edit coach apperance (i actually forgot to put this one in)


i'm also hearing the gameplay has improved, so hopefully this means better defensive movement and better realistic A.I.

So, in other words guys, we're expecting from EA absolutely different, almost new game!? They not gonna do it by themself (at least i don't believe to their goodwill)! Then, let's talk about HOW we could to push them turn the face toward customers, instead market department! Otherwise our "fantasies" means nothing to EA...

More freedom in everything. Big amount of animations is what makes the game look and feel real. The more different stuff is heppening on the fields the better :rockman: Also more power bars, more control given to the player ....

-more 'realistic/better' ball 'movement/physics'

I won't spend a penny on FIFA anymore, even if they come out with an excellent game. Looks like I'll be getting it through downloading. I feel everyone should do the same, see how EA likes it when we kick 'em where it hurts.
err...where do u download it???hahaha...
Lets hope it get better this time...

Dangerous territory mate (H). But he has a point though ;)

i am getting fifa 2006 only if they fire everyone who worked on the last 5 fifa's and create a new football game engine from scratch.

What he said.

I think they just need a new team, that or a new producer with a difrent vision for the game like graphics being more realistic for example and go back to the natural moving hair like they used to have, I have no idea why the hell they changed that for to this plastic looking crap. Ehh just fire everyone and hire new people, like Nuno 79 said.

only after I downloaded the warez and its better than champions league 05.

im only buying it if I see the official Alpha Ethniki in the game......otherwise with no Greek league and no Turkish League its not "in the game"

Yeah i agree no way the austrian league should be in the game and the turkish isn't

im only buying it if I see the official Alpha Ethniki in the game......otherwise with no Greek league and no Turkish League its not "in the game"

Great point! And I like the its not "in the game" part... LOL (I laugh because it is true).

There is actually a bunch of stuff that is not "in the game." Stuff like Copa Libertadores, International squads like Peru, Holland (and nobody say nothing about Holland not wanting to sell their rights; EA should be able to dish out a couple of bucks, crap they did it to monopolize the NFL and NCAA Football... freaking bull), Chile, Ecuador, S. Korea, Japan, Senegal, Jamaica (Yeaaah-Mon).

And how about the Argentinean League, do they not deserve to be in the game? Hey, Out of all S. America, EA only includes the Brazilian league. That is just plain foul… at least throw in some S. American clubs (Cienciano, Colo-Colo, Cerro Porteno, La Liga, Bolivar, etc) in the “Other teams” section.

Just mentioning something i said waaay earlier on in this thread. Out of everyone posting here, 8(maybe even 9) out of 10 are gonna be buying fifa 2006 anyways. & from the early news, fifa 2006 might just do the trick & put fifa back on top.

I am gonna buy it. As soon as I get money (H)
I really don't care if there are no south american teams or holland. Because the PC Version could be modifyied. Faces, balls, boots, teams could be created.

For example, in my website we made the Libertadores Cup. So... I really care about the gameplay, If the gameplay is better than last year. I will be happy. Also I would like more stadium because it's harder to make some stadiums. :taz:

I just play Winning Eleven 9 and it's like WE8. I only envy the gameplay. The other stuff for me it's average.

Regards.
