I've done research and written down everything I saw. The best things?
White Hart Lane! And the Rest of the World teams includes a lot of teams from the middle east!




There must be tons of information in the files that came with the demo.

I'm trying to get as much info as possible. For instance. The fifa.db file says that there are many "rewards" such as a Classic Teams, an All Star team, some stadiums, Highbury (!)(!) and a lot of kits.

It's seems like there are 6 referees.

Jin Wang
Jonathan Veasey
Lagi Toma
Miguel Sanchez
Sammi Oliseh
Sergio Martinez


The demo is in the Allianz Stadium. The information also names the nearest airport (WHY?). It says Franz Josef S (Airportcode: MUC)


Default formations are
442
4222
41212
433
451
532
541
343
352


In the career mode you can upgrade things like staff and stadium. It seems like the same assets are in fifa08 (no additions).

There is a list with countries. I don't know if these will be in Fifa08. There are some suprising names like:
Holland
Ivory Coast
Cape Verdia

There is even a lot more info in the language files.

The championsleague is called: The Trophée des Champions, allthough EEC and EFA are also named.
It seems like there is a Copa Liberatores (Americas Club Championship)

Weather conditions are clear, rain and snow,.. and all can be combined with sun or night.

Collina is somewhere in the game for int. friendlies.

Balls are: Mitre (english and scottish version), Umbro, Puma, Blue ball (mexico) and the Americas Club Championship Ball.

I see a list with all the stadium. No new stadiums. Seems the same as last year.

You can unlock biographs of legends.

There is a list with different cities.. I have no idea what they mean. From Mexico City, to Boulogne-sur-mer (France) and from Rome to Bydgosszcz (Poland)

The Classic CI challenge is in the game (again)

I can also see Markus Merk, Kim Milton Nielsen and Anders Frisk.

Wait... I can see a file with lot more stadium names!
White Hart Lane, TCM Stadium (?), Jose Alvalade (was that one in Fifa 07?), Seoul Sang Am, Gottlieb Daimler, AWD Arena, Commerzbank Arena, Estadio Jalisco (?)

Rest of the World:

WOW!
That's hard, so much rest of the world teams???
I never expected those asian teams!!!:confused:

And White Hart Lane :) Woohoo!

Surely they don't have that many asian teams without some version of the Asian Champions league?

Generally speaking, if all these teams and stadiums are in the PC version, can we expect the same in the XBox 360 version?

Maccabi Haifa? in fifa? u must be kidding!
WOW thats the only thing that gonna be good at fifa!!

Generally speaking, if all these teams and stadiums are in the PC version, can we expect the same in the XBox 360 version?

I have no idea! The fact that EA puts them in a file is no guarantee that they have made it in to the final game. Developers love to cut elements (or teams) out of a game, but they always leave behind some traces.

Virtual Colombo "can i take these code left overs, my wife likes them so much"

ahaha you cracking me up buddy

teams from Romania aren`t at rest of world ? Dinamo Bucuresti, Rapid Bucuresti or Steaua Bucuresti ?? how do yo see these teams ? edit database ? with wich program ? :D

Awsome - great to see a wide variety of teams.

Heaps of teams that play in the Asian Champions league - is it possible to look through the tournaments and see if this is included (in some form)?

What about national teams, many more of them?

:fluffy:

Except if it's meant to be Independiente Medellin or Independiente Santa Fe, both colombian sides.:kader:
But if it says just Independiente it got to be the argentine side.:clapwap:

And yes they added the Gambrinus Liga, also the Eircom League(Ireland Republic) and the Hyundai A-League(Australia).

Maybe the czech league is only in next gen, and current gen has some of the czech clubs.

Spotted Independiente, and also found

Bosnia-Herzegovina(nt)
San Marino(nt)
New Zealand(nt)
South Africa(nt)
Wellington Phoenix(New Zealand?)
New Zealand Knights FC(New Zealand)
Gạch Đồngtâm Long An(Vietnam?)
HP Silver Stars(South Africa)

Unfortunately couldn't see any other argentine side.:(
In the stadiums list i saw some new ones.

Yokohoma
D. Afonso Henriques
Algarve
Coimbra City
Braga Municipal
Samiyen

And White Hart Lane like they said before.

i havent found some kind of asian championship but i found C. Libertadores for south america!!

i also found a few stadiums:

Sapporo Dome
Home Depot Center
Jalisco
Commerzbank Arena
Gottlieb Daimler Stadium
AWD Arena
Aveiro Municipal

Wellington isn't really a rest of world side as it is in the Australian league - the New Zealand Knights FC no longer exists, it folded early this year (replaced by Wellington in the A-league). I guess it still has a team id, but I doubt it will be in the game.

I've gone through the teams that have been mentioned, there are only 3 teams competing in this years Asian Champions league yet to be mentioned (apart from Australian and Korean teams, who are in the game as their leagues are in the game):

Al-karamah (Syria)
Al-rayyan (Qatar)
Shandong Luneng (China)

I wonder if someone could check to see if these 3 are there as well?

Thanks.

Shandong Luneng, Al Rayyan, Al Karama are on the list.

I found some more.

Albania(nt)
Faroe Islands(nt)
Lithuania(nt)
Malta(nt)
Liechtenstein(nt)
Arema Malang(Indonesia)
Persik Kediri(Indonesia)
An Najaf Sports Club(Iraq)
Sepahan(Iran)
Club Atlético Peñarol(Uruguay)
Newell's Old Boys(Argentina)

Unsure about the national teams case because some have been there in past versions but they weren't in the final version, club teams however is a different case. Still no sign of any russian team.

Lithuania Ole!!!

Nice - It seems like there must be an Asian Champions league tournament then - or at least you will be able to create it.

Good to see some new national teams - are there any like Japan or Holland who have been missing previously?

Yes they are there, but that doenst mean anything... They use the same strings to give players a nationality (same goes for San-Marino, Liechtenstein etc. I saw a few posts back).

All those rest of the world teams & NOT A SINGLE AFRICAN TEAM..!
that's weird.

All those rest of the world teams & NOT A SINGLE AFRICAN TEAM..!
that's weird.

Yeah, no Orlando Pirates?:confused:

Ive found some south African teams:

Orlando Pirates
Bloemfontein
Mamelodi Sundows
Supersport United
Kaizer Chiefs
Silver Stars
Santos (the Brazilian Santos and South African Santos are both in the game)

Any sign of just one single Hungarian team?

You guys are doing a great thing here keep up :D

Dont get too excited guys, previous Fifas have had many club sides in the database that were not actually available in the game. The big Russian teams are in the database of the last three Fifas but they didnt appear in the game. I would rather wait and hope.

Any sign of just one single Hungarian team?

You guys are doing a great thing here keep up :D

No,.. sorry!

How about Zamalek, Al-Ahly, Ismaili, or ASEC ?

How about Zamalek, Al-Ahly, Ismaili, or ASEC ?

Nope!

And just found D. Kiev and Newell's Old Boys

There are 3 currencies in the game. $, € and £. You can also have job offers from other clubs.

There is not an Asian club championship. However, it does mention an "ROW Cup" (Rest of the world cup) and an "International Club Championship" (Confederations cup?)

The file names some tournament as Americas Club Championship (Besides the MLS Cup) and a "C. Libertadores". I'm not sure what is South American Uefa Cup is called, but that would probably be the Americas Club Championship.

The file mentions a league as the "world league".. Perhaps something online?

I thought "World League" was the league for ingame created teams.

Excellent idea, any sign of some serbian teams in rest of the world?

OOOh south african teams !!! cant wait!

Excellent idea, any sign of some serbian teams in rest of the world?

I'm afraid not

I sawed some Vitalis League Clubs

Surely they don't have that many asian teams without some version of the Asian Champions league?

Yeah I was going to say that...I'd say with the addition of the A-League they decided there needs to be something for A-League sides to play in apart from the league itself ;)

The equivalent of the UEFA Cup, or so it pretendsm in South America is the "Copa Sudamericana" however the ROW Cup and the Americas Club Championship were in the database of FIFA '07, but were unseen in the game like International Club Championship. Doesn't mean that it's going to be the same this year.

And the World League i think it is for the Classic XI, the MLS All-Stars and such.

Well I checked through and they do indeed have every team from the 2007 Asian Champions league (they pretty much just have every korean and australian team plus every team in the ACL).

Whether there is a tournament or not, it will be easy to just add every team into a custom tournament.

The only worry is whether these teams will actually be there in game.

Is Dynamo in? I am asking is Dynamo Kiev in the game!!? Give me the answer fast!!! :f***:

Is Dynamo in? I am asking is Dynamo Kiev in the game!!? Give me the answer fast!!! :f***:

Yes it's in

if you find the team name in language files that's not meaning ther are in full game. The rest of world team are the same of last year + mamelodi sundows and two poland teams gornik and arna,pogon and wisla plock + fortaleza(brasil),sao caetano, santa cruz

That's what I've been telling a few times in this post,.. but at least we can make the conclution that EA will probably (not a guarantee) contain a lot more middele east / african / asian teams.

Most Importantly Is there the World Cup?
I don't think it will be there.

Yes it's in

Thank you!!!

Most Importantly Is there the World Cup?
I don't think it will be there.

Yes there is,.. it says you can use "Fifa World Cup" in the tournament options.

OK Thanks!

Yes there is,.. it says you can use "Fifa World Cup" in the tournament options.

Wow! thats great! Is there any chance you can see what national teams there are gonna be? Would be great if you can post the list.

No, the list is also use for nationality.. So the list contains practicly every contry.

Hey ya'll, I don't wanna dissapoint ya, but I also checked the Fifa 07-lan.db and in there I also found names like "urawa red diamonds", "cska moscow" and so on, which in the actual game 07 never appeared.... I think ya'll shoundn't raise your hopes too much to play with all of the mentioned teams and stadiums in the new fifa 08...(:/) sorry...

Feliciano

you are actually right though.

Well people worked out from the number of teams EA said would be in the game that there would be a heap of new teams (not including teams in the 3 new leagues) - if these aren't rest of world teams then they'll probably be national teams.

There is even a lot more info in the language files.

The championsleague is called: The Trophée des Champions, allthough EEC and EFA are also named.
It seems like there is a Copa Liberatores (Americas Club Championship)

Weakness. EA F'ed it up again, thanks for the subpar pool of ROW teams. :(

Broodrooster, where have they released that information exactly? Everyone else, it doesnt really matter because we PC users make league patches anyway.

Hpefully they will now have the correct roster and perhaps more realistic players (in fifa 07 some "white players" were made like if they were "black or brown", nothing racist of course), and the away kit.
