i finally get my hands on fifa 06 and its really gr8.

just after we start the game, we are asked to select a fav team. i selected chelsea then i had a match with the classis XI team. it soooo cool.


i really loved the game, this time there are a lot of things to do inside the game than just playing. there is an interview with eto'o, the intro is with real players in real competitve games, there are videos showing good goals. like becks goal from half way line

in short i liked the game. there might be some of u who m8 not agree with me...but these are my thoughts

I'm still playing FIFA 2005.

This is indeed news for my ears(even though it's taken a while in coming)! :D Time to head out to buy this baby!

Erm, I don't get it; why would they not want to sell the DVD version of the game in India? So, I can't expect to get hold of a DVD of FIFA 2006 in Mumbai? Legal copy, I'm not talking about pirated stuff, please!

I didn't liked the fifa 2005 ball behaviour on the pitch, it was unrealistic. Hope Fifa 2006 doesn't disappoint.

FIFA 06 has some bugs and EA has just released a Patch for it.

Finally they released the Fifa 06 patch for fixing keyboard problems
Download the patch here:

Download
Code:
*largedownloads.ea.com/pub/patches/Fifa/06/FIFA06_PATCH1_en.exe

And the readme file about the patch here:
Code:
*largedownloads.ea.com/pub/patches/Fifa/06/FIFA06_PATCH1_en.txt
Info:
USB Keyboard Incompatibility fix - FIFA 06 is currently not compatible with some commonly used USB keyboards. The patch will fix this issue so that they can function in FIFA 06. The fix will cover the majority of these keyboards, with special focus given to those keyboards being reported to the Call Centers.
By fixing the input peripheral recognition system, the Saitek P2500 controller will also be properly detected and function as intended (USB supported game pad).

PC Controller Save Configuration fix – the User is currently not able to save their modified controller configurations. The patch will fix this and allow the User to save any changes they have made to the configuration of their supported keyboard or game pad controls.

To Fix only Keyboard/Mouse Problem heres you can do it manually

To fix mouse/keyboard problem, u can do the following. It works fine for me.

1) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\???xx\My Documents\FIFA 06\user
2) Open file "devdata"
3) Find string [Default Pad|Default]
4) Replace

(DEADZONES=0.3,0.3,0.3
0|18|21,0|19|22,0|16|19,0|17|20,1|22|5,1|23|6,0|20 |3,0|21|4,0|1|2,1|3|2,2|0|2,3|2|2,4|11|2,5|14|2,6| 10|2,7|13|2,8|8|2

This game is just like FIFA04. No automatic decision making..i.e.they just fire the ball in the direction we face. It does not take the player nearest to us. Dude. I'll stick to 05. I'm about to finish career in ManU

In FIFA 2006 Attacking and defending is a pain.( I've played the demo only)When the player we control get to the other side oof the field, defenders will group around and takes the ball. Also opponent players are dribbling gods and no easyway we can get the ball from them. I'm going to stick with FIFA 2005

2,4,6,8 keys are for different tactics like wing play, etc..(dont remember all)
Q+2/4/6/8 is for defensive tactics like pressing, zonal defence etc.

5 on the keypad is for mentality i.e. attacking/neutral/defensive
