I miss the replays.........you score a screamer and ya cant keep the replay going to rub it in, all ya can do is say....hahaha boyaaa did you like it etc

BORING BORING EA

Stozy · 22-11-2008, 07:29 PM

I hated noobs that kept the replays going for ever....fine the first 1 or 2 angles but when it started to go super slow mo it was lalalala.....weather it was my goal or someone elses.

KWAKU270494 · 23-11-2008, 07:30 PM

I know! i hate it when that happens. They score a lucky goal and let it run over and over again. Whilst i'm getting frustrated because i wanna score before the server disconnects

BWMeekin · 23-11-2008, 08:05 PM

hmm where to start ;

comentation horrible
cant type own messages online
online always dissconnects
no referree (actuall person on the pitch)
at the 90th minute the goalkeeper does a slow motio goal kick and all ur team dissapear (only happened to me once never happen to anyone else i dont think)
when theres a subsitution it shows the goal keeper and the goal net is a few feet infront of the goal
somtimes the players randomly clear the ball when u havent at all shook the wii remote
you can quit on an online game which is really annoying
no legendary difficulty
etc

BWMeekin · 23-11-2008, 08:11 PM

and today i havent been able to pick my team apart from once then when it went on the menu screen it dissconnected

Harald · 24-11-2008, 06:48 PM

And my MM (8th season) froze!!!

dezzie1981 · 28-11-2008, 06:56 PM

when playing manager mode after the year 2015 my wii crashes with a strange buzzing noise. It doesnt matter how many times i reset it and load it back it always does the same thing. Anyone else had the same problem? Or is it a fault on my disk?

Dezzie

Harald · 28-11-2008, 07:00 PM

Yes! This is exactly what happend to me!

dezzie1981 · 28-11-2008, 07:11 PM

Harald · 28-11-2008, 07:19 PM

No reason to really, they'll never answer anyways...

Stozy · 28-11-2008, 08:09 PM

Fifa 09 = lalalala
Ea = rubbish service
Fifa 09 makers = tubes

**SIGNIFICANT UPDATE**

Hi Guys, sorry have been quiet, due to being busy with work...however I have also been busy writing a report to Trading Standards and am pleased to have had the following response..

"have checked with the advisors here and the general consensus is that the game is not fit for purpose. If it advertises the fact that you can play it online and you cant, then it is misleading.
What you can do is to return it to the shop/online retailer where you purchased it. Disregard the 30 day thing or whatever it was - your statutory rights over rule their returns policy.

Your argument is with the RETAILER you bought the game from, not EA games.
The retailer can have a fight with EA if they want, but you have no contract with them, so they don't have to do anything for you.

The retailer should refund your money."

In short, EA have to do nothing to fix the problems. However because the game is not fit for purpose any refund policy the store has is ruled over by your statutory rights.

Therefore, if you want to take the game back, take the game back. The store should refund you as the game is 'not fit for purpose'

Good luck guys!
Graham

Stozy · 10-12-2008, 11:26 PM

I am confused.....did you write that to yourself?

GrahamUK · 10-12-2008, 11:35 PM

no i wtote it to everyone else in a confusing manner!

in short EA dont have to do anything, but you are entitled to a refund from where you bought it from....

there you a go a simple version !

Stozy · 11-12-2008, 05:25 PM

Right then....i doubt a dumbass guy in asda will give me my money back months later....good work tho..

BWMeekin · 11-12-2008, 05:56 PM

i got mine online

what can i do ?

Stozy · 11-12-2008, 06:06 PM

**** all lol

GrahamUK · 11-12-2008, 09:31 PM

Cancel it online for a start - cite the problems with the game and your statoury rights

Stozy do the same, you have a legal right to take it back. If problems speak to manager, explain them issues. If necessary call trading standards your self and ask them to speak to asda. know your rights
