Too much criticism

[The Don't]

I'm getting such a negative feeling from this forum. I think we all need to realize how much better this game is than the last one, and just appreciate the work EA have done. Okay, it may be hard to enjoy the demo after playing 100 games already, but thats inevitable with any game demo. I'm finding it absurd that some people are actually saying FIFA 2003 is better than this one.

I want to hear what people are loving about the new game. Personally, I find the passing system to be pretty much spot on. Okay, the high through ball may be quite inconsistent/impossible but other than that I have no crits. I also love the tackling, I reckon it might be the biggest improvement over the last game, with the ability to pull people down from behind

Great play is possible in this game.

Word up! n1 tom
I also think the passing has been improved a lot. In 2k3 the CPU cought almost every pass that went near em, now it's totally realistic. I also like the Long pass-improvment, before, pressing the long-pass button will mean shot-it-to-nobody. Now it actually passes Only bad thing is that the long-shots are a bit to easy. GG EA Sports

I think some peeps here need to understand the concept of football and start to come to terms with the FACT that FIFA 2004 is miles better then 2003, for sure...100% man!

Fifa 2004 is a wonderful game, only stupids says that this is worse than fifa 2003.They say it because they are WE fans and don't recognize that fifa did a good and hard work

Fifa 2004 is way better then Fifa 2003 people who say fifa 2003 is better 2004 they must be on crack. Fifa 2004 have major improvements defense, penalty kicks, gamplay, the team works more a like a team, and ect.... It is easier to head the ball in the defense plus i like that you can push a player. I like this year's players abiltiy feature skills, agression, aware, physcial, and etc (more like WC98 and previous fifa game players ablitliy features.)

Whoa NK!, your getting way ahead of yourself. You need to go read your posts from last year. Last year when FIFA 2003 came out you were saying how great it was then a few weeks later you were bashing the siht out of it.

I am a big fifa fan. I have bought the game every year since 96. But still you have to give criticism. I think Fifa 2003 is better as a hole game than fifa 2004.

Graphics first of all. I was surprised by the awful graphic when I first played the demo.

Game play is good but it´s far from real football. Fifa 2003 felt more real. I watched a football game an hour ago and compared with 2004 and 2003. 2003 was looking more like in real.

DUDE just start 1 thread and stay in it and talk about FIFA 2004 DUDE you guys are starting too many thread. Stop that already

 

[makio]

this is only a demo version the real game will be better. if it has bad graphics it must be your computer fifa 2004 has better graphics then fifa 2003 the faces look more realistic(have you seen mouta screenshot of his fifa 2004 demo it looks awesome). I also have bought the game year after year i believe Fifa 2004 is a better game than Fifa 2003 because in Fifa 2003 it had horrible defense and goalkeeper. Fifa 2003 was ok about 5 to 10 but Fifa 2004 have major improvements on things fifa 2003 was horrible at Exenalty kics, goalie. Fifa 2004 have highlights after the game plus i believe this year the game loads faster. Fifa 2003 took about 1 minute to load.

Ok don't wanna bring your thread down but EA try to get everyone hyped about the game, there's gonna be a few come downs - do these quotes fit the demo you are playin?

"FIFA Football 2004 will push gameplay to new heights. With a fine-tuned game engine and a more innovative new AI for the finest in football gameplay. "

"The development team have increased the database of players and their attributes, whilst also focusing on the players’ positional wisdom, personality and new skill moves. Extensive attributes have been added to player simulation to help offer a rich football experience. "

"Making FIFA Football 2004 the complete football simulation."

FIFA 2k3 also had highlights after the game.

 

[valioso]

i dont care about EA quotes thats marketing bs.. everyone knows that.. EA is not the only company that does it..

but if anyone is saying that 2003 is better.. then they havent played the game or they find it too hard

 

[Solo Inter]

Yeah! And "INDUSTRY LEADING GAMEPLAY" or something like that, what a fcuking joke!

 

[Wayward shot]

I believe FIFA 2004 is a better game than 2003, I still haven't mastered OTB, as well as the new tackling system. FIFA 2003 the Hold down Tackle button has been changed. the 4 minutes is not enough time to learn the buttons. and I don't have much time to play it.

Headers are actually won. I have yet to try some excellent dribbles.

But I can already tell it surpasses FIFA 2003

But fifa 2004 have the highlights if you press pause during the game. (i think you can save highlights on fifa2004 not sure about it.)

I wasn´t gonna bring this up, Nick... But since you implied that me and the others aren´t impressed by the game because we "need to understand the concept of football" I shall raise my voice and remind you of your review of last year´s Fifa edition....you gave it a staggering eight stars out of ten! And among other things you wrote: "No longer can a player just run all the way through the defence using a speedy player, or a particular skill move... nope, it’s not all about pace now my friends, It’s all about skill, timing and knowing your players attributes. It’s all about football." Excuse me, sir...in what way was Fifa 2003 all about fotball? I thought it was more a simulation of an arcade game of football.

But what do I know...I can´t even understand the concept of football...

it´s not that I would like to bash all you who like the game...I envy you guys! I was so looking forward to it. But, please, don´t say that it has anything to do with real football.

i don't get you people, how can you say fifa03 is better? i mean you're only playing a demo for one, and we don't know the exact controlls, and people that say the graphics are crap, try turning up your resolution and detail level then say it's worse than 03, i mean the new detail is amazing even though i must say the hair has lost detail but that doesn't really matter.

Man I think so to. Fifa 2003 were more realistic and the pitch looked like real. The goals were in a great size and the net moved when you scored. The gameplay maybe is better now but way to slow. In fifa 2003 you could make wonderfull counterattacks and dribble past the last deffender. where is that now?

The opinions are shared but you could at least argue on a high level. Maybe some1 changes his mind

Read my other posts, in all my others posts I have said: "I hope it lasts unlike last year" and now that I forget to put it in this post, you have a go at me. Bad form mate, bad form...
