I have been playing like this for some time, it has changed in 2008 somewhat and not for the better, you now always see the opponents goal no matter which way you are facing, in the previous versions you always faced the ball, it was harder to master but more realistic.
I didn't Know that FIFA had introduced this! I wrote the below in July 2006:
This is how I play fix on we10
I always play a few seasons normally, when I have won everything and go to player cam, the advantage of this is that the players that you have bought etc. have all improved so when you are playing fixed it is a better game.
My rules PS2 is the manager, so if I get subbed I watch the rest of the game (double speed of course) this also applies to injurys and tiredness.
Then you go to win everything as per..
I am currently 3rd in the league behind chelsea and man u, by 5 points with six games left, I have both league and champions league cup finals to play as well, its just nice aint it!
But where I would like to see this go part 1:
control of the cam, I would like to move it back slightly so I can see more of what is around
You start the game as a created player (16 yrs old) you play in reserve games or train until you are good enough for the first team (awarded score after game would sort this)
You play for your team, if you get sold you play for your new team, if you are good enough you get an international call up, and then you play in the WC, EC etc.
You only play when selected or fit, and the option to watch games or not
But where I would like to see this go part 2:
I would like to see this be the default for online play but beyond that the similar as above. you are a player and not a team, we all start with the same pool points to add to the default 50 so we can start with slightly diffrent skills, you stats improve with experience like the ML you start at sixteen and finish whenever but again like the ML you stats drop after a certain point.
You can be apart of as many teams as you like if reserves and friendlies can not be played (you might never play otherwise)
the option to watch games (other teams that is)
A league system, maybe with reserve teams
Moral rated on you last few performances, if you playing bad moral drops as it improves when playing well (again the player scores after games will sort this)
stats like positioning to be introduced, this would show how well you can play in your position, so if you a defender and spend more time up front then you would have a lower rating etc.
Tatic awareness this could be how could the player is at following the managers tactics.
Somebody would start the team and therefore be manager select tactics, players etc.
I guess you see where I am going with this, a virtual online football career, the aim of the manager is to win of course. maybe there could a be a virtual board (PS2) aswell so if the manager is not to hot he gets sacked and another from a list gets picked (could work with some thought)
So all the things that happen in real life could happen in the game.
Just a dream, but I remember when players did not that look like whom there was supposed to be and were all block figures that all looked a like, commentry, online playl multi leagues etc etc etc were all dreams too!
