I've got FIFA 2004 a few days ago and what a huge dissapointment with gamepad controls. I've had a Gravis Gamepad Pro for a few years and was planning of using it with FIFA 2004, as well. However, in the middle of the game, I am returned to the main menu and my controller just disappears from the controller selection screen.
Since this was so frustrating (practically can not finish a single game), I've decided to buy a Logitech Dual Action (which seems to be EA Sports favorite). More problems now, different though. First, you can't use the D-pad, which I'm used to, and secondly the left stick, which I'm forced to use, started behaving weird after only a day of usage.. It just doesn't stay centered, so I'm having huge problems controling the players (they are moving without me moving the stick, making it very hard to control the movement). Also all the moves are much slower than with the Gravis gamepad.
I am planning to return the Logitech gamepad, but with the Gravis controls dissapearing issue, I can't really play at all. Does anybody at EA Sports care at all? (I've seen other messages from people having similar controller problems)
Guys, any ideas about any possible fixes (either activating D-pad on Logitech Dual Action, or patching the problem with Gravis controller)?
Any help is much appreciated. Cheers
