FIFA 14

Seems like we're getting the 'starheads' this season, about time really.

No more of this:

If he's still here anyway.

Like you said, about time they did that. They need to get more stadiums in the game now, especially Goodison.

TippEverton · March 14, 2013

Haha, is that what Felli looks like on FIFA, jesus.

Anyone get the Everton cover for this year?

Strange they would do that and NOT put Goodison on the game. Can only be a matter of time

I wish Konami would shell out and buy the rights. The games are alright but who wants to play as "Merseyside Blue"? Especially annoying considering they usually shell out to buy Liverpool's name and kit

The kits and team names are easily fixed mate, the player likeness is brilliant, not just for the key players, but most the squad.

Bet they won't put Goodison in though, pisses me off badly that.

How does one go about this? Is it only on the PC version

I wonder what minor updates there will be this year.

This one will be ALL about Ultimate Team, I think. It's an absolute cash cow.

Better player faces and more statiums would be good. Goodison really does deserve to be there but you can understand why it hasn't been in the past.

PES had the "Old Lady Stadium" a few years back.
PES 2013 has a stadium that looks a lot like Goodison, but without the beloved pillars.

I agree, I think nows the time. especially considering they did the promotion where you could get the EFC cover. To do that and then not have Goodison on the game seems pretty odd to me

Every PL stadium should be on it in my opinion, or at least the top 8 teams or so. I admit that this would probably take forever to do, though. But then how much time does it really take them to change a few stats and tweak the passing here and there?

They're running out of ideas fast. I mean how many times can they say that they've completely revamped the dribbling? They may as well.

FIFA 13 was dire in my opinion. Like BLF said they're really running out of ideas with the game.

Never really understood why Goodison hasn't been in it either, probably because EA know feck all about football and just go along with the 'plucky old Everton' tag even though it was one of the first purpose built football stadiums and hosted world cup games back in the day.

alpha1 · March 14, 2013

Goodison probably hasn't been in before because it's not a trendy stadium with a trendy team!
I agree that the top ten premier league stadiums should definitely be in and the makers should get all the player "heads" sorted for sure.
I've got the wii version and Jelavic has almost blonde hair!!
It would be nice to have an option where you can have more control over players celebrating etc.
Watching say, Phil Neville do back flips/robot dance/moonwalking etc. does not give me the reality I'm craving lol.

Why though?

I find it the best ever.

FIFA 11 is still the best ever in my opinion. Still has the best animation when you win the league. When you win the EPL two players lift the trophy. It was usually Neville and Fellani when I played. I dislike the fact that in FIFA 13 you see the players running around but you don't get to see the captain actually lift the cup. It's a little thing but the little things are important when you discuss "best ever"
