one thing u guys probably would not know about the game!

[Xtr3me3]

well it may be bad news to some people...butttt OFF THE BALL CONTROL is still available.!!!! hahaha..just a few comments based on the demo though...the keeper look kinda sucky but better than fifa 04 a little(if ur a pro in fifa 04 online u should noe this)..the boots(50-60% are all fully black) and i think the gameplay have improved a lot..well lets just hope the actual one will be better!

hehe i didn't like off the ball control in fifa04 it never worked well for me so thats annoying that its back in (it takes a button up that could be used for something else). maybe they improved the system though. hopefullly.

btw, i remember in fifa 04 the goalies were crap at saving long shots but supermen for short range stops and saved everything from close range (hehe how did ea manage not to see this!). has this been erradicated and the goalie system changed?

i already knew off the ball was still there and i suppose other people did when they pressed the z button

What's the big deal about that they brought OTB in EURO? If you don't like it, so don't use it, it can't be simpler than that.

And BTW, I've scored a lot of goals with help from OTB, so I thinks it is a great control. Thats my view of it, and it doesn't seems that many others have the same opinion as I have.

 

[ngyc]

the problems not OTB, but is the accuracy is 100%, that is impossible

 

[james_chelliah]

oh...i dint know it was still in...


but thats probally cuz ive been playing all my other pes n fifa games on ps2...hehe..

I think the OTB control is too easy. You make the player run and when he is level with last defender I blast it as far as I can with the cross button and the offensive player almost always wins it over the defender. And for this reason I hate OTB control.

otb seems much harder in euro 2004 than in fifa 2004. It isn't 100 percent anymore. I think thats a major improvement

 

[derzp]

hmm seems off the ball has been tinkered wit and is now good. just as it should be - thats wat many prev. fifa games lack - a feature comes in, its alrite and has potential but then EA drop it. but now they have improved a feature which is good to hear.

 

[ishan1990]

yeah, if they had dropped it, i wouldn't have been very happy. Its a great feature but it needed some adjustments from 2004. It still needs a few adjustments, hopefully it will be even better in 2005

the OTB isn't the bad guys, i know it's not a superb feature but what can we say, EA
