Default Beware! Trophies update ruins the game's sound!!

Some days ago, when I wanted to play Fifa09 again, my absolute favorite playstation3 game by the way, a patch named 1.02 started downloading automatically. I already had 1.01 on it, which made the game just perfect and took some bugs out. But the 1.02 patch I'm talking about was the trophies update adding the trophies for online play or something as I got to know later on. As I don't play online at all and don't want to neither, I wouldn't have needed that... But that's not the real problem. The problem since I installed the patch, the game sound is messed up. I'm in Germany so I play Bundesliga, and usually the coaches and players are yelling in german, and so is the crowd for several teams, at least I think so for the crowd. And depending on the stadium or location, the stadium guy at the beginning who announces who is going to play etc is talking in the adequate language, too. I really loved all those details in the game. It makes it so much more realistic, even if the commentary is pretty annoying after a while. But I so loved the sound effects arround, like screaming coaches, even if you don't see them like in UEFA Euro 2008.
So I got really mad when I realized that the trophies patch (1.02) ruined those sounds. They aren't the right ones anymore! Now everybody is yelling in english, what is pretty stupid and destroys the entire game! I tried to play Primera Division in Spain, same problem. Only english! Same in France with french players! What the hell is that?? I didn't need a stupid throphies patch that ****s my game up!
The commentary was still correct (well, at least as it used to be before the patch) so as indicated and chosen in the sound options menu. But the players and coaches will always scream in englilalalala really isn't fun anymore to play like that! Especially when players enter the stadium and they are only presented in english in a german match! I've been to many Federal Ligue football matches in Germany, but except for UEFA Cup or Champions Ligues matches they will never talk in english of course! You really ****ed my favorite game up, thanks a lot, Electronic Arts! By the way, you did the same when patching UEFA Euro 2008 afterwards! And there were a lot of people complaing about that on the german forums, but EA ignored it and didn't repair it, of course... Why still put effort in a product that won't bring money anymore... **** the costumers and whether they are pleased with your game or not... they will be stupid enough to buy Fifa09, too, so why should you care. And so on with Fifa2010... Right now there are a lot of people on the german forums asking for help because of this sound problem I just talked about before. No replies of course! Nice marketing strategy, making Fifa09 players addictive then messing the game up to ensure people buy Fifa2010 quicker? I heart that at least the english support is a lot better then the german, so here I am. Hope I'm heard. And sorry EA for being that harsh, but you deserve it. Luckily I'm not playing online at all but just with some buddies who come over from time to time, or with my gf. Online players are so getting ripped off by Sony or EA whatever, it's incredible. But that's another topic...
SO EA GUYS, WHAT'S UP? BRING US THE ORIGINAL SOUNDS BACK! I don't want to reinstall the game completely! And if really necessary cause you guys continue to giving a **** about it, tell me at least where to get the 1.01 patch with help of my laptop that worked perfectly to make the game ok again!
As I'm not a fan of online addons and of the fact having to accept Sony's bloodsucker contract only to get on PSN which costs and costs, I updated my teams manually after the winter, hell of a work as you should know the best, thanks that I gotta do that again now because of your stupid faulty trophies update 1.02 that I didn't even need! Ah, and I even forgot about something: the trophies update makes your PSN account unaccessable as I read in the german forums from people who play online, already the 8th person having the same problem now. What a rip off! And you know what is funny about it? After deleting everything having to do with Fifa09 from their PS3 hard drive, things worked normally again!!!! And so did their PSN! So ???

you're kiddin? You seem to hang arround a lot of time here in this forum, look at the number of your posts:-) And you claim not havin the time or motivation to read this? Ridiculous...


For you people not being able or in the mood to read quicker or more then three lines:


Trophies update 1.02 doesn't simply give you throphies but messes up the sounds in the game AND makes your PSN unaccessable! Sounds that dissappeared:

-stadium speaker
-player sounds
-coach sounds

Happy???

I agree. I've noticed the same thing and it's amazing how these little things can straight up ruin the atmosphere. I'd post this in the "Hello From the Team" thread, but maybe edit it down a little ;-)

I think it's more to do with you seemingly 'not having the time or motivation' to include some paragraphs and a bit of punctuation, maing your post legibal.

I got about as far as 'So I got really mad when I realized that the trophies patch (1.02) ruined those sounds..', and whilst thankful for the previous paragraph, the way my eyes were starting to blur told me I wouldn't make the next one.

Whatever magic. I think for a foreigner I was understandable. Would like to know if you're capable to write in foreign language like that.

English native speakers are so arrogant with their language! Just the fact that you guys don't have to do any efforts because it's "world language" makes you feel strong, doesn't it.

And I hope that now you're not coming up with anything against germans. I got enough english mates who do their living in Germany, and luckily they aren't complaining about my punctuation.

And sorry that I don't have the motivation to waste my life time in a EA forum to creep into EA peoples' you know what.

I noticed another bug with patch 1.02. When the goalie collects a loose ball or has a goal kick, the player closest to him on the opposite team decides that he only wants to run towards the sidelines and you lose complete control over him...

Just ignore them


3/4 people on this forum are not worth the time or effort to have a go at, they have the braincells of a goldfish and seem to think they are god

I could easily read all of it even though I don't really care about the problem those wlalalalaan about the punctuation are probably...

the most anoying thing is that the anouncers are not original any more that ruins the feeling. i´m really really sad about that. Please patch that very soon!
An maybe solve the nerver solved fifa bug that player never walk towards a ball after a pass (there is a short moment in with you can´t controll the player you are passing to and they never walk towards the passed ball automaticly). That would be great!!
