ok ea guys last night we played with 4 players last night on club mode yet we lost the game due to insufficient players, meaning basically 2 ppl got booted from ur servers at the same time. why is this? why have u guys totally ruined the fifa experience this year? why does it take so long for you guys to fix things? why are you guys bring out fifa 2010 when you are still puzzled by fifa 2009? iv been pateitn but this is getting stupid now. sort it out or ur sales for fifa 2010 will be very low as noone will buy a stupid bugged game.

smeltzerinho · 18-02-2009, 10:29 AM

Disconnection from Club, hell even just sitting at the menu seems to be rapidly increasing

I'm not the only one, everyone in our club has been suffering from nonsense random disconnections. Seen as this is NOT p2p, sort out your freakin' servers EA

And stop blaming us for once, and recognise it's your own crappy faulty equipment.

mcassidy3 · 18-02-2009, 11:28 AM

Danny Taylor · 19-02-2009, 04:40 AM

As we've mentioned before - we can diagnose the problems if you give us gamertags and times it happens...

I'll try to find out what the problem was...

Best thing to do is send aurora or adroit your details and we'll figure it out...

I just have one question that is really frustrating me and that is when i play certain players my players speed is unbelievably slow. The Connection is fine there are no jitters and no jumps but my players speed is abnormally slow.

For example my last Ranked Quick Match i played with Man Utd vs Inter Cambiasso had the ball and was walking and C.Ronaldo was sprinting and i couldn't catch up to him and when he hit the spring button he just peel away like he was on roids and he just left me in the dust and C.Ronaldo had a full bar in sprint.

About 80% of my losses are because of my players inabilty to keep up with players they should be able to. And another thing that happens in those games is that my players fall down way too easy and way too many times they fall down by the slightest touch or bump. I had C.Ronaldo fall down 4 times by a bump from Cordoba.

I was thinking maybe it had something to do with the game speed we have set up, but it happens no matter if i host or if they host.

I ask you guys please for a explanation.

P.S. If you guys need an example of a game like that i can play my friend from New York with whom its always like that.

P.S.S. My Xbox Live GT - BC87AP

Alamode · 19-02-2009, 06:47 AM

I thought the collision system was supposed to be great this year..

Instead.. Players fall down on the slightest of contacts..

Also the speed of the game is unbelivable, Players are able to just peel away from defences so easily which is unrealistic.. You can just pass to Ronaldo or messi or any fast player and they will just run around your defence without any problem. Crazy !!!

Fifa 08 was more close to realism then Fifa 09 is, Please sort out the speed of the game because it makes the game "arcady" and sort out the through balls.. The defenders just fall asleep when there's a through ball they hardly react.

Under the renowned momentum / AI glitch, if you throw the ball from your goalkeeper to your wing back or any defender, the AI doesn't alert the defender to the pass and they stand still until the ball hits them on the side, ... THEN THEY FALL OVER!!

Pathetic EA Sports, absolutely pathetic. How in ****s names would that be our fault and have something to do with our connection?!

I agree.

The game is good but too many little glitches are there like the one you mentioned.

One time my player was making a run after i pressed L1, He was making a run straight ahead and i dont know if he was blind or what lol he just collided into a defender and fell over while the defender just stood there. HILARIOUS !!!

Improved collision system huh

I could list like 10 bugs in the game off the top of my head. Fifa 08 was more close to reality for me and was also alot bug free. EA have not done a great job with 09.

mcpop72 · 19-02-2009, 11:33 AM

Another few games playing through treacle

This time Barcelona where the players move about with the pace of Nantwich Town FC and look like a pub side. Needless to say, the opponent has free reign to do what he wants and wins

I'm not sure I can be @rsed to email the details of the games anymore as I never got a reply to the last email I sent

This treacle/gimped phenomenon is there for all to see, many examples described by many people on here

Pretty poor when you switch on the game and you don't know what sort of game you'll get - EA, acknowledge and sort it!!!

daherlihy · 19-02-2009, 11:37 AM

^ best description I've heard to date

(treacle hehe!!)

Seriously though, EA Sports you simply cannot ignore and deny this. There are far too many making the problem aware for you to ignore and refer to as unfortunate.

PMRFC1873 · 19-02-2009, 04:10 PM

i just won a match there on the ps3 interactive league serie a and the person quited the match and it didnt count , this only happen when is says return to league community screen when u pause the match and ive finnished matches when it said that and the won still didnt count, so plz can u fix it to stop it showing return to league community screen

MusePT · 19-02-2009, 04:14 PM

David, I wanted to know if you or anyone else at EA could reply to my questions in page 11 of this thread, thanks

Demon01uk2007 · 19-02-2009, 07:18 PM

Ive not played fifa09 online in over 23 days now but i have been playing the poor manager mode we was treated to this year by EA and as far as im concerned

Online and offline games are SCRIPTED there is no other way to describe absolute B.S that you see day in day out on this game.
However with only Fifa09 being the only choice Im stuck with a game thats addictive despite its flaws.

If no one else is getting the same rubbish people are complaining about then I suggest you check out lounge mode where your team can be gimped and you can gimp the other teams stats so your team plays lalalala.
I believe this is happening online though we dont get a choice on how we are going to be gimped.

Another thing when the heck are you going to sort the weather out in manager mode?
It cannot be hard to add the weather feature in the game settings thats in MM so you can change i yourself from there instead of going out of manager mode and back in.
Also sort out the manager mode crash.

The games industry is the only place where companies can get away with releasing a shoddy product its a joke.
If EA had any guilt they would have fixed the game by now instead of ploughing us with more of there creative ideas that aint free

NOTE TO EA

I want the game I was promised and I want the game I bought that was supposed to be a full game.

Danny Taylor · 19-02-2009, 09:23 PM

There is details in the ultimate team thread I believe

dpd782004 · 19-02-2009, 10:19 PM

Rutter you are full of it man, absolutely full of it !

when i was complaining about this nonsense of a game due to players being slow to react and passes going all over the place except where i wanted it to you advised me to do the same thing 3 weeks ago, and send you details of when it happens and what exactly happened, which i did. adroit sent me a pm to say the message had been forwarded onto you. when i recieved no response from you i asked again if you looked into it.

CAN YOU REMEMBER WHAT YOU TOLD ME TO DO ?
YOU SAID "GO SPEAK TO WILSON"

UNBELIEVABLE MAN !

so i come on the forums and see you telling another poor gamer with the same problem as me, to do exactly what you told me to do. what you gonna say next to them ? go speak to wilson ? i suppose we are all still just imagining this eh? more and more people come forward to complain of the same issue and still the chuckle brothers....sorry EA sports....have made no effort what-so-ever to help us and get the problem fixed.

i must end on a high note though because you guys have saved me £40 as next year i will not be buying fifa 2010 so thankyou for that. you guys should work for the council. takes 4 men to dig a hole and 3 of em stand and watch.

So you're on the right thread now for attention about online.
I'll go and speak to Wilson Venhola and see if he can spend some time with you and your problems.

The reason I'm pointing people to Wilson is because he is the very good programmer responsible for writing the FIFA specific portions of the game you purchased. For me it's like talking to the engineer who designed and manufactured the engine of your car, if you've got a problem with the engine in your car. You wouldn't want to speak to the salesman (that's me)...

You don't need to speak to me - as I can't really directly help you. I'd just go ask Wilson for you. You now can go ask him directly...

It's a good thing...

Mighty_Leaf_Tea · 20-02-2009, 01:57 AM

There you are, Rutter.

Answer me this -

The Emirates is one of the best Stadiums in the world, and it is not correct in the game. Running around the inside of the Stadium on the Tiers, are Red strips and not bare concrete, which it currently has in the game. It looks positively ghastly, and quite frankly its hard to believe you couldnt add a lick of red to the grey in the first place.

It looked better in the PS2 version. It needs urgent attention for FIFA 2010.

Dont let me down.
