Commentary names (or lack of)

CaleySaints90 · 14-10-2009, 04:15 PM

Just wondering, can we request that they make more commentary names for virtual pros and created players to be made available to download somehow? Could they not get someone who sounds like Martin Tyler to say some names and put them in the FIFA 10 store or something, anything? I made myself in virtual pro, downloaded my gameface and everything, but couldn't find my name in the commentary name list. My surname is Wallace, and I searched Wallace in a player search. There are 7 players in the game called Wallace. Why, therefore, is it not available as a commentary name? I was really annoyed that I couldn't have my name read out by the commentators. And yet, when playing against Hearts in the europa league in MM, it said Lee Wallace's name!

I really hope they add more aswell because I don't think my first or second is in the game.

i know it goes by real life players the commentary someone with a name like Mc Mahon in the game i think his name is Anthony so the commentator says the full name even if your name isnt Anthony.

I just think if they just said surnames instead of both that would of been better, my surname is edwards but their alternative one is " here`s edwards " its luck of the draw.

This is where it pays to have the surname 'Jones' lol

I was disappointed with this as well. I didn't expect my name to be in there but the only sportsman with my surname is a footballer (Luke Varney) so I thought it could be in there.

It's not that much of a feat to read...

My surname wont be on the game, as I doubt there are any footballers with it, and not many people in real life.

I do agree with you, I think this needed to be on 09 aswel. But now it's moving onto 10 and so on I do think there should be some way to upload, or download more names..

I find it quite anoying that they say MARK Gonzalez every third time I have the ball..

dont think theres any footballers called Warren out there

i use the name "Warriner" instead

This annoys me too.
Maybe there should be a function where you can record your own or something?

killerford89 · 14-10-2009, 04:48 PM

I wander if they could do some sort of a record Commentary, where you could do some of your own..

Smoooooochy · 14-10-2009, 04:51 PM

my first name is liam so i could theoretically butcher 2 names to make my first name.

my surname is very rare so not a chance that will get in!

we should be able to cut & paste syllabuls together to make names.

i just set my VP commentary to Lee which is an asian surname. slose enough for me as a lot of mates call me Li anyway

I was hoping that my surname would be in the game this year thanks to Matt Sparrow at Slalalalahorpe. But no luck.
