If you want my opinion , you will never take down fifa , there are millions of people playing fifa.. You will propably end up losing a huge amount of money and i dont think you have so much money budget to actually develop a game , paying staff , servers , licenses , advertisments. etc.
But anyway , i hope you good luck , and i would be more than happy if that stupid game , that makes me only angry , get kicked from soccer games' top..

PES came before Fifa did buddy. And I didn't say I was going to create a game without "real player names and likeliness" what would the point of that be? You think I can take Fifa down by making just some amateurish game?

not hating m8 but how do you expect to achieve that you would never be allowed to have real names as only fifa have them fifa are huge.

The only way i ever see this happening is with a massive kickstarter campaign....
but even with that i doubt it

Whilst I respect ideas and dreams, this is completely out of the question.

1) Using team names, player names and getting rights to leagues is not cheap. EA bully PES out of doing this because they pay MILLIONS so they can't sell the rights to other companies as well.

You can not compete.

2) you would need a big team of highly skilled developers, game artists, if you were to use realistic game faces & stadiums you'd need to send engineers and specialistd to EVERY club to capture the game face and stadium. Staff alone would cost hundreds of thousands, if not millions in wages.

3) production. How do you plan on getting your 'game' onto shelves?

You'd need to buy all the blank discs, buy a machine that can transfer the data onto said discs and then you'd need to have a retail specialist pitch to all the game companies to even get the game on the shelves.

Thats before even speaking to Microsoft/Sony about allowing this game on their systems.


This is a nice idea but conpletely flawed in every aspect.

Keep dreaming kiddo

You cant make games who even are you

Someone who can make a lot more than games. The first great soccer simulator is just my flavor for the next couple of years.

Well, you probably can't appreciate it right now but Fifa will become one great example of how corporate inefficiency could't keep up with consumer expectations and became displaced by vibrant innovation. Simple market economics man.

I've done my license research buddy. Names won't be a problem.

Unless you have a spare couple of million... money is a problem.

If you've done your "licence" research you'd know EA paid over 5m alone for just the BPL rights this year.

I bet you don't even know how big EA is. I hate fifa just like you, it feels like it is scripted but you are confused man
