FIFA 11 Wishlist

[Fodder007]

We are already receiving confirmation that some of the things we want to be included in Fifa 10 aren't so now is the time to start a Fifa 11 Wishlist. I intend for this list to become a compilation of all the things we want from Fifa 11, offline and online, improvements, additions and anything else really.

I will keep this original thread updated with all sensible suggestions and will credit the original poster's input by linking to their post. If there is something you would really like to see in Fifa then please post it here, please feel free to write as much as you want about your suggestion as I will be linking to it.

p.s. this is not the place to criticise other peoples suggestions

It's a list of suggestions, the aim is to add to the list, not to be critical of what other people want anything to add?

[Fodder007]

One thing I would dearly like to see in manager mode, and I know people have spoken of it before, is an immersive media experience in manager mode. This would include newspaper style match reports, dynamically created by the game after every match based on your performance and match events, transfer rumours in newpaper article form, critiques column about club performances and expectations, published tables for each league, the ability to interact with the media such as post match interviews, declaring an interest in a player or club, commenting on performance of other clubs....

the possibilities are endless, I would like to feel that I am living and breathing the game, that it is dynamically changing around me and so that the career/manager mode feels like a long term event and not just a series of individual matches.

[leosmithx3]

For online team play i think when you go on quick ranked match you should be matched with someone with the same connection level as you personally mine is good so i can be matched with someone else who has good connection levels

Not really, EA have started to confirm things that won't be in Fifa 10, see the Manager Mode Q&A thread. Marcel hinted at having a Fifa 11 suggestions thread a few days ago so I've created one. As a starting point this thread will be a list of all the things that were wanted in Fifa 10 but wern't included. Then once the game is released it will be added to with more things that people want for the next installment. When is the right time to start this? I would say now when we know that some things won't be in Fifa 10.

Fair dooos mate

My Opinion:

Trophy Celebrations - MUST
Alternative Shorts/Socks - WOULD BE NICE
Edit Mode (or something like the ncaa american football build a school website) - WOULD BE NICE

Things like newspaper reports would be brilliant to start with but would soon get very repetitive. Example would be the press conferences on FM which were good when you first started, but got so boring and predictable after only a couple of months of your season.

I've added trophy celebrations, not sure exactly what you mean with the other two.

and for alternative shorts and socks an example would be Man U whose home kit is red shirt white shorts and black socks, but in europe they were white socks (and if they are away and are playing a team with white shorts they wear their alternative black shorts). Understand what I mean now?

Great thread Fodder.

How about more individuality and the control of it, like the PES 2010 card system.

[RolledUp20s]

what actually happens when you get sacked on fifa manager mode?? never happend to me so i'm curious, as on football manager if you get sacked you can carry on as unemployed...or even start off unemployed..looking for a club, makes you then start at a lower club and earn your manager rep in the world to move on up. so maybe these options in fifa11??

[T-Mills-85]

no its not. the OP really has a point. we, as the community, need to bang heads and think of the things we know arent in fifa10 and we want in fifa 11.

Excellent idea fodder. ill keep an eye on this one.

I think We need cup celebrations, and generally a more imersive MM.

Being able to watch other online games would be great too.

[thebesttheworst]

Couple of easy simple aesthetic ones here to start ...

Allow the HUD - Scoreline and player name indicator boxes - to be moveable to the corner of the screen - adjustable as seen in beat em up games.

Better use of available screen area with menus and stats display, about 45% of available screen space is unused.

Faster scrolling of stats of players or all available on one page or screen.

Goalkeeping stats for outfield players put at the bottom/end of their stats ... not in the middle as it is now, causing you to waste even more time scrolling on the Dpad.

Realistic full sized pitch dimensions - done to exact scale, seems simple enough to me ? ...

Find dimensions of average pitch in real life, take in game player model with exact height ie 6ft or 1.5m or whatever ... now lay exact clone player models horizontal one after another on the field end to end and width to width until desired real life pitch dimensions are reached in feet or metres and now plot the pitch perimeter out.

Do the same thing with the goal, the 18 yard box, centre circle and the ball itself ... and there you have a game with everything the same size as in real life and in exact scale to boot ... simple, surely ?

[Asmyser050882]

Manager Mode:
- Maybe not play the matches, but reserves and youth are managed and can gain experience points....maybe you get a report each week from the coaches
- Team Highlight Reel - Allow us to save replays of a season and choose a sound-track on fifa to play as the music and you can create a cool piece to remember each season by.
- Mid Season job offers
- More realistic, and different scenario's that pop up in the message center (example: sending reserves to charity event - fatigue +2 morale +3 )...these get old and repetitive
- Marking of rivalry games (it did this in fifa 06)
- Better crowds and atmosphere
- OFF-SEASON WORK - madden and ncaa do this, and it creates more of a complete and unified manager mode, i dont want to skip 3 months, i want to train, transfer, and play friendlies

these are just a few, more to come after fifa 10 im sure ha!

[Kamph]

Saving replays to HDD

[RolledUp20s]

ohh a must! = in game live scores (from your season i meen)

will be exciting if you need a result to go your way..or if you need to win by more goals etc. maybe it shows at half time...or just a ticker/slider in the corner

[zlatandogge]

There is only one thing i want and thats fifa 11 to use euphoria. You know, the animation/physic engine that GTA 4 used. It would make every shot, every save, every tackle different. Just think about it!

example: YouTube - GTA IV - Euphoria Physics Engine

[Fabregasfan09]

Bit early, eh? Lets play Fifa10 first

Newspaper match reports would be excellent. After a Cup final to read how the action unfolded. I don't think it would get repetitive if there was plenty variety of words/sentences. I gave an example here how it can be done- Manager Mode - Newspaper Match Reports

I think the ECC and EFA need improving somewhat to give a realistic and authentic European experience. There will be Night matches in Fifa 10 but apart from that i think the ECC/EFA will be pretty much the same. Some suggestions here on this- European Competitions - Realism/authenticity

Ive made a Fifa 11 suggestions list also. It's really to get 20 idea's which are of high priority to try to get EA to focus on the most important things. Ive only got 15 on the list so far, if anyone has any suggestions add them here - Fifa 11 - Must have's

[FraserKnox]

Fifa 10 hasn't been released yet and you're onto Fifa 11?
