Fifa 10

Problem being Nz Seb, I've did a console repair request via xbox360.co.nz, which was accepted, but nothing else ever happened. I rang MS call center and was told something was coming in the mail, never turned up. Tried on the web again only to find my warranty has expired, even the extended one for the RRoD, so I emailed someone at MS about it only to find it was someone who lived in the USA and had no idea what rural delivery in NZ was. Now they want me to pay $180 to get it fixed.

Question from someone who is yet to get the game: When you get sacked or leave the club as a manager do you get offered jobs or can you take any like in FIFA 09 if your rep is high enough?

You get offered jobs depending on how high your rep is. For some reason though after winning an EPL I could only scrape a job in League 2.

The problem is, before a team (such as United) sacks you in the games leading up to it you lose all your rep, then whee you eventually do get sacked your rep is zero.

I haven't been sacked yet, but when you start you can choose any team you want. I may be able to let you know tonight though, if Hereford don't start winning . I've started negotiating a transfer for Siggy and Costa. 

I'm at 4.5 stars and am starting my 3rd season with Arsenal. However I had hopped to move into Spain, France or Germany but they only teams on offer were rubbish! It's infuriating but makes sense...kind of...

Patch should be out sometime this week for 360 and PS3. Fixes a couple o bugs here and there, bets thing to me is it has a form improvement. This will mean players can't run faster they usually can just because they're in form etc.

You'll have to restart Manger mode for them to take effect.

Nevertheless, not enough fixes for me, out of the 70 odd MM ones theres only 5 being fixed in the patch.

oh? Michael do you hang pout on the Fifa 2010 MB? Lots of interesting stuff on there except the idiot brigade.

Yeh Semi was harder than Pro back in old 2009 and 2008 imo.

Fifa 2010 MB?? You mean forum.electronicarts.co.uk ?

yep

Andy and I had a couple of cracker online games last night. I won both games but I think I had a bit of an advantage being the host.

Results:
Game 1: All Whites 1 QPR 0
Game 2: Gold Coast Utd 8 Wellington Phoenix 1 (I think that's what it was, I lost count :P)

Anyways, my point is, be good to get more on here playing online games. Alot of fun when you know who you're playing against.

Seeya for Round 2, Lonegunmen ;) welly_phoenix2009-10-22 09:29:34

I realise now that I truely suck. If you want an easy win to boost your ranking, play me! But then it is about fun and when losing watch out for my cynical tacles! LOL

Yes, 360. Shame we cant play inter-platform, PS3 V Xbox! LOL

I enjoy playing on Online but can't really put up with the responsiveness. Makes it much harder to time anything.

I  just got annoyed at the opponent putting out 5 star teams against a lame team and getting off by whipping me. I didn't know Liverpool had signed Viera? Yeah right. Spuds were stacked with half of Barcelona and Real madrid players- yeah right.

Thats bloody gay aye. In my manager mode first season I signed Balotelli as a hit man for Arsenal and cattermole for the middle of the park, but I wouldn't use them in an online match!

I long for the day when online gaming is as responsive as real life (me and a good mate have some epic battles) and we can cross platform it!!!

Is FIFA 10 one of those games you can cross platform between 360 and PC with Vista?

But Xbox 360 cant play PS3 though?

I'm pretty sure there are a several 360 games which can be linked with Vista games, just another way for Microsoft to dominate the market.

Dream on, the PC version is pants.

Sorry LG, it's a part of my dreaming for it to happen 

ANyone else finding the "You Dominate entire match and the AI scores on the first sniff of goal" syndrome. I know that happens in real football, but far to often on Fifa games. Geez it pisses me off.

Way to many bugs on the ps2 version. cant even do manager mode anymore cos it just pauses after the first 5 mins of a game and doesnt let you continue. Lots of things that just dont happen in football aswell.

Whats the highest sill anyone's got their Virtual pro at? Mines 73 lol

a five star arsenal team just got relegated.

Just wondering... aside form advanced graphics and all, is there really many things that have changed in fifa 10 than fifa 08?

anyone find they have a spare game on PS3 they could let me have? haha man i want this game so bad

No but I have a $25 off voucher for ya if you want...

Virtual Pro is cool, 360 degree dribbling is epic, gameplay is much better, you're so 200 and late.

I am getting f**ked off with the referees, it seems like the opposition players can do pretty much anything and you only get the occassional free kick but if you so much as look at them, instant free kick and yellow card.

 

Which is infuriating when they score from them too! I'm over not getting any hand balls, just had a screamer blocked by an extended arm! Also, how often do they get in the bloody way?

Not to mention the countless amounts of times I get pushed in the back in the box.Michael2009-10-30 18:08:27

So is this game worth it over 09/08?

Yes, its a great game.

HOWEVER, If you play Manager Mode, don't buy it till they patch it properly, else you're buying an uncompleted game.Michael2009-10-30 18:23:51

I have now played over 50 games (Only 6 online) and I have yet to receive a penalty. I've been floored, taken out, had the oppo blatantly handle the ball and not even a free friggen kick!

f**k

Just played a game, should have been given 3+ Pks that all deserved red cards, yet they win 2-0 and I get two players sent off.

FFS, I'm sick of this bullsh*t. Did I mentioned they only had two shots on goal??? Did I also mention there defenders did more goal saving than there out of position keeper.

I can relate to that and you have my full sympathy there Michael.

So does the imbalance of this game "break" it?
