Ups and downs...

Hey guys...I think we all enjoy the new gameplay engine from EA in FIFA 07 on Xbox360. I play it all the time but i wondered if i'm the only one who thinks there are som important lacks...

Plusses: Gameplay is overall great. The graphics are amazing. The people in the crowd are in some way "smaller" than previous games which make a goal kick in Old Trafford great to watch. You can actually feel that there are 75,000 spectators. Some commentary has been improved I think. Short stories about the World Cup in Germany and comments on the players. The stadium speeker is also a nice touch!

Minusses: Off course the lacks of teams and especially generic stadiums. Its boring to play almost every away match on Estado de los Antes. Hopefully it will improve next year. The keepers react in a strange way some times. Some very weird movements. And how come every match in manager mode is played in sunshine and daylight? Where are the night matches in the European competitions? Some commentary stinks and are incorrect. I play with Arsenal and are second in the Premiership playing home to Sheffield United at Emirates. Shef. United is bottom of the table and Martin Tyler chooses to say that I have a 50-50 chance to win!

The crowds are bad! The move in unison and are very abstract. I hate playing every away match in manager mode in the Estadio de los Antes! It's gotten to the point where I despise that stadium. Commentators are wayyy in front of the play and sometimes get really excited for the smallest dumbest reasons. Stadium PA announcer is indeed a nice touch. About the daylight thing :sun:, when you do the manager mode, the first half of the season is all played in daylight and the second half of the season is all played at night. Very weird and wrong. The faces look like wax museum statues. Don't know why EA love to put sheen on all their player models! I am one that doesn't think the graphics are amazing. It's very choppy in cut scenes and the players look too waxy and the crowd is not detailed, the stadiums do not have the legit flags, banners, marca, wanadoo, ben sherman, etc. ads that the PS2, XBOX versions have had for years now! As fun as I think it is (largely due to online play) it is very sloppy :nape: I'm crossing my fingers for 2008

The second half of manager mode was entirely played at night (yes! On the 360). I did one season and was enough for me! I still can't believe there is no cup celebration! I mean, why wouldn't you do it especially when you can show off the power of the 360? And why is there no ref on the pitch??? This is next gen! I was stupid enough to believe that next gen would bring about great things! This game is very very half @ssed!

Hehe! Yea! I see you are doing well in the league now! I am horrible, need to practice against others online more. If I draw my next cup match, I'll advance to the quarterfinals so all is not lost yet. Gears of War online and now Call of Duty online have been a big big distraction.

Cool. I always see you on but I'm either playing COD3, GOW or playing Fifa coop online, which is not the same! But, I'll look you up. Sometimes it's apain though cause we have to catch each other at the right time since we'll be playing others , etc. and you get imaptient waiting so you play, and then we all end up playing message tag....

Nobody's manager mode is all at night or all in the day time. It depends on what you last played in kickoff mode. For example, if you play with a certain team in a kick off game that is set to night, then when you play with that team in manager mode it too will be at night...sometimes... I haven't quite figured it out yet. But I know for sure that it definetly has to do with the kick off mode settings.
