EA to bring out FIFA 2002 2nd Edition!!

[Christam1]

yes, it's true, EA have emailed me confirming they will soon be brining out an update, available in the shops (shouldn't it be for free to us??)

 

[StabaekStu]

This update had better be free as a download to all of us registered, legal users or there are going to be a lot of very p***ed off people! (Me being one of them!)

 

[IceBlu]

if this is true and the update is'nt free....then EA deserve a kick in the nuts ...........thats if they have any........

 

[karneiro]

I hope its true and free, because the number of bugs is amazing!!! If they try to sell it and dont set it free for us, I think everyone should take a stand!!!

"TOGETHER WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL!"

 

[Dirlewanger]

Hmmm....

What exactly is this update???

Is it a version with bug fixes or does it have extra features?

What did the email say?

 

[Ove Kindvall]

You say only to people who have registered. That's true, but I bought the original and I can not register. My country is not listed in the register form. So that means that I got to pay for the update. No way.

 

[theCRO]

I hate to say we told you so, but we told you so, the game sucks, I feel sorry for those blind enough to buy it, even pre order it !!!

 

[grashed]

looks like EA confessing to their mistakes and trying their hardest to challenge a particular title that is coming out this friday........

Good try EA but you still have no chance.

 

[altek]

What the?! FIFA2002 was below expectations and they expect people to pay for an update (we don't even know if they'll improve anything important).

 

[maddog1983]

why would EA email you and not post anything on the official website ? and why would they not charge for an update .. think about it make a shit game charge $20 for a patch disc that "updates everything and improves gameplay" most owners would go and buy it extra cash for EA . (I reckon that stinks!)

 

[Joe]

Maybe the update is called "EA Sports World Cup 2002" avaliable in six months?

 

[bertkamp16]

A majority of the people in this forum have WAYYYYY to much faith in EA Sports. Screw FIFA 2002 and screw their update. It makes me laugh when I hear so many of you complain about FIFA 2002 and you'll all be the same people that purchase the World Cup version this summer. EA is screwing you guys and you're asking for more. So sad.

 

[theCRO]

my sentiments exactly Bergkamp16

 

[Joao Pinto]

lies, lies! its all lies!!!!!! EA won't be putting out an upgrade. What kind of sick people post lies.

 

[dcunik]

hmmm..how many updates did they make for fifa2001? i think only 1 or 2.

i won't be really too excited about the update.

 

[SARIS]

shit yeah us registered people should get a free download

 

[bertkamp16]

If all you FIFA fans would just get together, say SCREW FIFA, buy Pro Soccer Evolution or ISS or anything other than FIFA, you can bet your ass that when EA Sports sees their sales plummeting, they'll fix their weak ass game real quick. Don't be a mindless ****ing FIFA zombie. FIFA is garbage and the faster you all come to realize that EA is NOT listening to your damn ideas and that there ARE better games out there, the better off you'll be. I was a FIFA fan but it's been all downhill since RTWC '98. My brother and I made a promise to absolutely NEVER buy another FIFA game unless they came correct with 2002. We put up with '99, '00, and '01 because we didn't think there was a better alternative. Boy, were we ever wrong. Well, they came with more trash for 2002 and my brother and I said "that's it." I bought ISS Pro Evolution Soccer and my brother and I haven't looked back since. All I ask is that you break the monotony. Don't let EA Sports take your hard earned money. Take my advice...you'll thank me for it, I guarantee it.

True Bertkamp, but some of us PC football gamers don't own consoles. Right now FIFA is the best choice out of a very small variety of PC football games so there isn't much we can do except buy a console.

 

[bertkamp16]

The one and only reason I come to the FIFA 2002 forum is to try to get you FIFA fans to see the light. For all of you regulars at this FIFA 2002 forum, it's just so easy to see. Just look around you. Every day that you come to see the threads and post your opinions and ideas, didn't you ever notice that all you FIFA fans ever do at this forum is bitch about this damn game? Come to the ISS and PES forum and all you read is about us singing the praises of the games we love. Exchanging stories of valiant comebacks and bitter last second defeats. Recounting our greatest goals, with people who understand what it means to score a goal that is deeply satisfying because you actually built up an attack, possesed the ball with determination, and scored the goal that you REALLY felt you earned, not some lame repeat of a goal you score in the same manner every other game. You guys just don't know the rush of adrenaline felt when you score a sick volley or bicycle kick. I've been playing ISS for a couple of months and just recently got one of both. In real life, even for the great teams, bicycles kicks are a once or twice a season moment of magic. I just want you all you guys to feel the magic as well.

It's a lost cause mate. Fifa fans don't have what it takes to get EA to fix the series. All they want is more leagues and more teams. That's all they care. I really don't see the point of having every damn teams in the world and yet the gameplay sucks. Every team play the same and there is no strategies involve. There is no replay value. I would rather that EA spent the money on improving the gameplay than securing all the license for every league in the world. Until Fifa fans grow up and realize that the gameplay sucks, EA will never change.
