    Goals hard to come by

    Not sure I understand you HenryHyoga, but yes in 05 especially for PC you must be using analog controls to gain use of the critical aiming that playing on a keyboard will not offer you.

    Goals hard to come by

    2 rules of shooting in 05, be in an accurate stance before your shot (shoulders as square as you can to the direction of the flight of ball). Secondly be AIMING correctly as you LET GO of the shoot button (independant of stance facing). The common mistake for people in 05 is to keep holding...

    EA online gaming questions

    what you are experiencing is Latency in all its unpredictable glory. The "Ping" report on EASO isn't very accurate, but obviously a lower "Ping" numbered opponent is usually a good indicator, but realize that # is how the opponent is connected to the EASO server, and not YOU. How an opponent...

    Online: annoying goals replays

    just press the #1 key on your keyboard (doesn't matter if you're using a gamepad or not) this is also how you choose your CORNER TYPE if the online game doesn't allow you to manually select it with your normal shoot button/bind. Good luck guys! XP-Chael

    + and -

    >decrease smooth gameplay moving >(Render_Every_Ai_frame don't work any more) I can confirm at least with a high-end PC system this game runs smooth as silk by default just as if render_every_ai_frame = 1 was enabled on Fifa 2003/2004 My System: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (939 socket) MSI...

    1-2 Passes?

    Just be very careful, i've been seeing too many people online (and falling victim myself) to trying to do a very quick 1-2 and it registering my L1 player run button and pass back as a combined L1 + pass which instead does a manual through ball pass in the direction you are pointing your Left...

    Career Mode - World Class (WTF?!)

    yeah usually EA game manuals are like that, specially regarding the fifa series, but hey this year it actually explains at least shooting pretty well to the point where it actually explains a lot of problems people seem to be having with shooting. If you are shooting like you were shooting in...

    Career Mode - World Class (WTF?!)

    The answer is in the game manual on how to shoot. Basically 2005 is different than 2004 in that shooting is now a 2 step process.... In 2004 you would just hold diagonal and press shoot and voila it would script in a goal, but this year your positioning & speed factor in firstly, then your...

    wtf is up with the passing system?

    Fifa2005 gives us an additional manual way to pass and that is via the L1 modifier. Pressing this button in conjunction with the PASS button allows you to power up a manual "through" pass which when released will travel in the direction (0-360 degrees) you have Left Analog held during this...

    Where are the reffs?

    I hear you Denis... its an unfortunate thing that the extra models for the refs alone are a significant impact on processing and/or rendering overhead. Just remember that games like NHL, NBA Live and Madden don't feature so many models on the screen at one time like Fifa does, so in other...

    Where are the reffs?

    The justification is easy, either keep the ref/linesman variable enabled and expect thousands of customer support calls and forum complaints about how slow the game chops in certain situations or all the time. Or simply remove them, increase frames per second/less overhead/smoother overall...

    Where are the reffs?

    As with any lowest common denominator game development you must consider the low end specs that the game may be running at. There are constant tradeoffs and compromises that must be met so the game will run on older or budget systems. If they REALLY wanted to.. they could make a High-End...

    Where are the reffs?

    1 less model on the screen gives a slight performance boost, call it cutting corners and cheating on the developers part to gain a few more frames per second. It was most apparent last year with Fifa2004 for the PC featuring a ref while at least the PS2 version didn't XP-Chael

    Player Runs

    Guys, it is EXACTLY like fifa2004 you CAN control 2 players at the same time using only L1 trigger player run... what you have to do is HOLD DOWN L1 and then you can control the person you initially pointed to with LEFT ANALOG. As you HOLD DOWN L1 at this point move that player in his run...
