FIFA 09 Update Notes - Page 3

What About MM Freeze bug?Have you guys fixed it?

Terrahawk · 14-11-2008, 02:31 PM

The sidestep glitch has been fixed? If it really has been fixed so it never happens again there's a LOT of teams that might as well sell FIFA 09/dissolve their club.

Now all we need in the next update is the shooting being fixed so a tap-in from five yards out when you couldn't possibly hit shoot any softer doesn't fly to the moon, and the offside rule fixed so the wrong player isn't given offside when he hasn't touched the ball. And video uploading where it reaches 48% complete or there abouts and the game crashes. This is a decent start, although in future it might save a lot of hassle if you just playtest the game before release, which you blatantly didn't with 09 as the bugs and glitches are so easy to find.

Thanks for the update but a bit disappointed. Hope the crab walking is fixed for everything and not only for through balls, conceded many goals this way. Disappointed there is no fix for the goalkeeper being dumb and watching at the game and not participating (even when the bal is at his feet). Well, time for a reset of the FIWC and Ranking tables!

It's very simple, when a ball is played and you inputted a command through a player (intercept, pass, etc) the goallie won't react even if the ball is next to him. This happens also when the goallie is coming out (triangle button) and 'intercepts' the ball first. He just runs against it and keeps standing there watching at the ball.

Believe me, the day you conceed a goal this way, you will now. i'm someone who like to use the goallie as 'extra' player and thus have conceded a number of goals because of this 'bug' (bad programming!)

Thanks for the explanation, I use the goalie a fair bit to come and clear things up and most of the time its been fine but yes i understand where you are coming from, minor issue in my view though

You are an *** - FIFA has posted the biggest sales ever in the UK for this game and such simple little things to make people happy can't be bothered with? Who gives a ****e about MM Numbering, give me some random damn weather in the mode instead!

The crab walking is fixed on lob balls, wow... considering it happens on the sidelines, on regular through balls, etc etc.

This is garbage. I've played the FIFA series for ever and I think I am done after this one. I bought a PS3 specifically to play FIFA - IT'S THE ONLY GAME I OWN - and the game is better on the PS2.

THANK YOU for that and having me waste my money.

Oh for crying out loud get a life, if you are done with FIFA then go play your PS2 or buy pro evo. This game is widely acknowledged as the best football game ever! End Of!

If you dont like it then maybe the problem is you!

Well as a paying consumer, that would be my right. Do you remember when Pro Evo was considered the best game on the planet. What's happened with that franchise?

As far as gameplay goes, this IS a great football game. As far as spending 60 dollars on it to play the same MM every year, it is not. End of story.

FIFAplayer123 · 14-11-2008, 03:47 PM

fifa 08 had the side stepping issue since it came out. sad EA couldnt fix it because it would of made it a better game

blaccatdadon · 14-11-2008, 03:55 PM

Some ppl forget that they are the customers and they have the right to demand value for money, fanboyism has taken stupidity to a whole new level.

Hopefully the crab walk has been fix and the MM matching shedule playing 3 matchs in 2 days is just stupid

This for me relegates PES back to no 2 for another year. I don't know why but it really irritated me that Torres was no 2

After installing the game update it will be possible to play in Tournament Mode with up to 8 user-controlled teams. This gives the option to host bigger events with your friends to compete in offline-tournaments. Have fun!

I thought that the PS3 could only support 7 controllers at once

Anyway, well done EA for listening to your customers, I despise your organisation a little less now

sammeboy · 14-11-2008, 04:24 PM

That'll stop 20 posts of "When is the date of the patch Dave?" in the other thread.

Good news this!

FifaFreaky · 14-11-2008, 04:39 PM

When is the patch coming for adidas live season, because lots of people including me are f****** p***** off that we paid for nothng now!

Pericles102481 · 14-11-2008, 04:58 PM

Good fixes...

ForeverBlue'86 · 14-11-2008, 05:01 PM

So - we still can't edit kit numbers in MM, but the computer will automatically assign them a better number than 2?

Better than how it is currently I suppose, but utter stupidity and laziness on EA's behalf removing it in the first place.

One of your first sentences says it all. YOU don't give a **** about MM-numbering, a lot of other people do.

Just wait until the patch comes out, and then give your judgement.

Pompeyfan · 14-11-2008, 06:00 PM

thank lalalala for that EA!!!!!!! The side step is sooooooooooooo annoying now no more ****lalalalaing long balls over the top for ronaldo every attack

ForeverBlue'86 · 14-11-2008, 06:01 PM

Have players making turns after tackling been fixed?

It's the most frustrating thing in this game when you tackle a player with X then your player makes the slowest most erratic turn going as the striker is stumbling and the striker has time to get the ball back, whilst your defender stands still in the animation, always lose goals cause of that.
