Can you check out some of the Villa players? Does Marc Albrighton have that incredible nose of his?

I dunno, gotta ask for the guy. I'll do it now.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

You'd think even if they hired one guy to do the faces, starting from the release of last years FIFA - they would have a massive chunk more realistic textured faces. It's obviously not a PFA licensing problem otherwise they wouldn't have the names and I'm pretty sure it's not because EA can't afford anyone to do it so that leaves the "We couldn't be bothered" solution.

Oh well

Its finding time with the club to take up a day to scan all the faces though. They set up a semi complex studio in Newcastle's in door training barn to get the squad done for FIFA 12.

Yeah but even if they can't get face to face time (hurr, hurr) to do the real life scans there are such amazing things these days called camera's and they take these things called pictures! Even a photo realistic image is better than simply not bothering at all.

Edit: In FIFA'11 I used the EA Game Face for the my pro mode, it literally took me 2 minutes to find a good front and side photograph of myself and 5 minutes to upload and generate the face, which came out pretty dam well! It even picked up small details like some of the small moles on my face. They should try using their own tools sometime.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

No, that would be terrible, Mr. Pedantic.

 

[ShallNoiseUpon]

we'll miss you

Surely you mean you'll miss the easy wins?

Loser!

You know I want to get it fixed, but just can't at the moment ♥

 

[Fry]

Awesome Animals!

Albrighton looks amazing.

I asked for other two Villa players as well:

And one for Chriswok

 

[Mr. Luchador]

The most lethal striker in the Premiership haha looks half decent, thanks for that.

 

[Carbonox]

Anymore Newcastle players? Player ratings would also be awesome

Only Ranger http://i.imgur.com/9Ylsf.jpg

I would ask for more but he said he's going to play the game now. So lucky...

 

[Mr. Luchador]

All the Toon players received their copy of FIFA12 the other day

 

[Wilbur]

Nile Ranger has a face but Luis Suarez doesn't? What the fuck's up with that.

Also, I can only play on manual everything and tactical defending, but fuck the CPU. So frustrating. Ambrosini totally outpaced Sanchez earlier, shit was preposterous.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Is it 5pm Saturday yet?

 

[Arnie]

Fuck this game, Suarez is generic, ridiculous. PES is better this year anyway, this is the final nail in the coffin.

I can't get over how automatic and manufactured PES is. Two player/Online FIFA is better than anything on the planet.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Logic suggests Newcastle is a bigger club than Liverpool. Just saying... (LOL!)

 

[RooMHM]

From the demo, this is looking to be one of the best games ever made. So enjoyable!

Could you show me some PSG stuff please? X:

You're going to buy a different game because of how a player's face looks?

Are you going to read what I just wrote?

Or shall I repeat myself for your own reading comprehension deficiencies?

 

[Wilbur]

I genuinely can't see how anyone thinks the Pro Evo demo was better than the FIFA demo.

 

[Fry]

I can't even think about buying PES. It's horrible this gen. It was so much better than Fifa for PS2, but that haven't happened once since 2007.

 

[Hixx]

Arnie's in a mood!!1

Wolves haven't beaten you's yet, man.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Going to be so good playing as Newcastle on FIFA12 like.

Squad Faces
St. James' Park

Awesome.

Sorry, you're not going to buy the game because it's not out yet and therefore you can't steal it?

Bannan doesn't look right, but Marc looks awesome. Nailed it :D

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Wonder if they'll have Albrighton's perma-acne.

 

[rvy]

lol, which demo? The 2nd one? People have different taste.

 

[Wilbur]

Pro Evo 3 was the best football game of all time.

lol, which demo? The 2nd one? People have different taste.

The second one, and yes but my point still stands. I genuinely can't see how anyone can put things up their bum, but people do it. Same here.

 

[Fry]

I think he looks pretty good tbh. But I guess we'll have a better impression when we get a zoom on his face.

 

[ShogunX]

Arnie's in a mood!!1

Wolves haven't beaten you's yet, man.

Cant really blame him though can you? One of Liverpool's star players and arguably one of the best in the league when on top of his game and he looks like some random fucking dude in a Liverpool kit.

Not to mention Suarez being voted the player of the Copa America and starring in the world cup. What makes it worse is that some shite players get fully modeled faces!!

 

[-NeoTB1-]

Demo was great. Looking forward to next week.

I agree that he definitely should. In fact, considering EA have got to the stage where they're refining rather than renovating, they should add default faces for every single Premier League/Serie A/La Liga/Bundesliga etc. player. There's no reason why they can't.

Some people find FIFA to be fake and plastic, and PES to be a realistic representation of football. Not realistic in the sense that it looks better or that the animations are better looking, but in the sense that it's closer to the real game.
Scoring a goal in PES is totally different from scoring a goal in FIFA. Hell, just look at some online compilations that FIFA players create. Some of that stuff would never happen in a football match.

Strangely enough this appeared on the EA forums.

Luis Suarez Face video

Actually looks like him on that so who knows whats going on.

 

[Fry]

That is a fake video. Notice how the shirt looks lame. Definitely not real.

 

[Mr. Luchador]

I get the sense there's going to be a boycott of FIFA12 by a certain club.

The IGN review is up. http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/119/1195975p1.html

Spoiler

I can't believe it got a 9.5!

From the closing comments : "More importantly, is FIFA 12 the best football game in the world? I don't think so. But I'd put it in my top one."

WAT?

 

[painey]

I wanna know if any West Ham players have proper faces.. maybe Carlton Cole, Rob Green, Kevin Nolan, Matt Taylor ?

Nolan will.

maybe he meant that the some people prefer the previous installments, is he the same guy who reviewed fifa 11 on IGN?

Phewww thank god

 

[Wilbur]

No, Brian Clough once said he wasn't the best manager in the world, but he was in the top one.

[rvy]

I know, it's worse. But each to their own.

Exactly, I know I'm buying FIFA this year. And I should have never bought PES 2010 instead of FIFA 2010, regardless of my issues with the animation, the AI in PES was just horrible.

 

[Meier]

Boo at The Vaccines not being on the US version. I only hope that the replacements in Clubs aren't as utter shit as last year.. it really makes it unfair if you're outnumbered significantly by the other team.

I am assuming the tuning is referring to Clubs point values primarily and not necessarily number of active players at time.

 

[Arnie]

Sorry, you're not going to buy the game because it's not out yet and therefore you can't steal it?

I'll brush off your attempt to disguise your own stupidity by playing into thoughtless stereotypes and save you from that hole you're digging.

I'm not buying the game because PES plays a better game of football thanks to the vastly superior AI in all areas of the pitch. You can keep your physics. You can keep your kits. You can keep your faces. I just want to play football.
