dazzybee Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Having played both demos I think Pro Evo is the much better footballing game (though Fifas package is way more impressive), I've decided not to get any football game though, as Fifa Wii is meant to be shit, and the next gen games just frustrate me after Pro Evo Wii, players don't run where I want them to, my players don't pass where I want them to etc. Feels like going backwards; so I'll stick with Pro Evo Wii and just wait for 09 next spring

Ramar Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 my players don't pass where I want them to Use the left analogue stick to aim the pass? Works on both PES and Fifa..

Thats the thing about the Wii version. I still 50/50 on the new version. Although the last game was great I just not sure on where they can take the Wii version in the future. Yeah they have added ML but I have played that for death already on the PS2 versions. better A.I, online leagues, tournaments etc is what I want..

Jim Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 bah.. just played a good hours worth of the fifa demo again, and now im swaying back towards fifa. Seems that i prefer whichever one im used to at the time, lol! Fifa does offer a better overall package though, hmmmm. $10 more expensive here in ozland, though thats not really an issue. Spose i should mention im playing the PC versions.
flameboy Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 do PC versions of FIFA allow for mods etc... like Pro Evo does?

They are adding in CC support yeah, and also a wiimote and CC co-op play too. Also much improved AI, better shooting and defending. For me there's LOADS they can do with it. Use the left analogue stick to aim the pass? Works on both PES and Fifa.. Do you mean the right stick? I'll give that a go (I actually did this a couple of times by accident when playing) but it's still not the same as pointing to EXACTLY where you want the ball to go Thats the thing about the Wii version. I still 50/50 on the new version. Although the last game was great I just not sure on where they can take the Wii version in the future. Yeah they have added ML but I have played that for death already on the PS2 versions. better A.I, online leagues, tournaments etc is what I want.. What can they add to the PS3/360 versions they CAN'T add to the Wii version? In theory?
Ramar Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Do you mean the right stick? I'll give that a go (I actually did this a couple of times by accident when playing) but it's still not the same as pointing to EXACTLY where you want the ball to go I mean the left stick, the one you use to run and move players, when you press the pass button you aim the control stick in which direction you want it to go. Obviously it won't compare to pointing exactly where it goes, but it should at least direct it to a player as long they're where you point your control stick.

I don't think I get you though, does the ball go where you push or does it pass to the person closest to the direction you're pushing?
Jim Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 do PC versions of FIFA allow for mods etc... like Pro Evo does? no clue A question though, what camera angle do you guys use in fifa, anything ive tried gives me motion sickness ><!
Ramar Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Oh....sorry about that. I don't think I get you though, does the ball go where you push or does it pass to the person closest to the direction you're pushing? All depends on settings really, if you have passing on assisted then it will 'help' it go towards the person, if you have the game on manual, the ball will just go to that direction. Its been like that in most football games for quite some time.
Daft Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 http://www.eafootballworld.com/en_GB/video/1619725 Scored my first free kick. I wasn't actually trying to.
tapedeck Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 Great goal and against my 'favourite' local enemy :p One thing though...HOW THE HELL do you you access videos you upload? I've no idea and have looked into it a few times. Must be missing something I can log on as my EA ID but no videos I've uploaded are on the page there?!
Daft Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 I added the video widget on my profile page... only way I could do it. Yeah, t'was a sweet tonk. I wish you could save to the HDD though. Why can't you? Edit: What a farce. I scored 5 goals in that game and I ranked 3rd. Last game Essien got 111% pass completion rate. 11/10 passes completed... not sure how. :p
tapedeck Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 11/10 lol. The ratg system is a bit of tosh at times like. PES always seems to be a bit more realistic with it's marks. Assists don't seem to be taken into consideration neither. Shame. No saving to the HDD is a bit silly yeah. It would be great to save photos (ala wipeout HD)....could make some cracking bg's. With the upcoming firmware update I can dream. Maybe next year. WOO! Got it to work. Cheers Daft! http://www.eafootballworld.com/en_GB/video/887966 (SWP On the run, first time volley from a deep cross) http://www.eafootballworld.com/en_GB/video/887500 (Screamer into the top corner from Hargreaves)
Dyson Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 I'm rather fond of this amazing little back kick myself http://www.eafootballworld.com/en_GB/video/1602318
Nintenchris Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 Ignore the teams... was after an achievement http://www.eafootballworld.com/en_GB/video/1623758 I was so happy and it got me the achievement for doing it too!
Emerald Emblem Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 My Player went on a 10 game goal drought last night on "Be a pro" mode, But that ended when I got picked for the England squad to play a friendly against PR China where I scored 2 of the goals in a dominant 4-0 Victory.
Dan_Dare Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 Props to Dyson for a fucking hilarious game tonight. It was pretty much a fight on the pitch, but it was genius. I really need to get the hang of proper slide tackles...
Dyson Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 Rofl, the game was utter class, it really was. 2-0 down until the 80th minute, where I score one, and then nab another one in the dying second forcing it to extra time. I get a penalty and take it to 3-2 in extra time, certain I'm going to win, only for Dan to equalize. Luckily I'm uber pro right, and managed to score to make the final score 4-3 to meeee. The game was full of so many hilarious moments though, many yellow/red cards were to be had! Sorry I disappeared after it, one of my housemates appeared out of nowhere with a huge TV.
Dan_Dare Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 understandable. I shuffled off to bed anyway.
Ramar Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Props to Dyson for a fucking hilarious game tonight. It was pretty much a fight on the pitch, but it was genius. I really need to get the hang of proper slide tackles... This game seems to think football is a non-contact sport. I've slide tackled got the ball and then the man, only for the ref to give a free kick and then card my player. It's a bit broken in that department.
Oli1983uk Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I have just got Fifa 09 I will have to add a few of you on xbox live and play sometime
