Suggestion: Chants

how about having chants in during the matches, not like simple ones but like ones for the players or managers

so if a player scores then you could hear their song, so if torres scores you hear the torres song

or if a manager such as rafa is under pressure then you hear the rafa song throught the game

what do you think?

Not a BAD idea I guess, it just seems like this would be a bit wasted in my humble opinion. The game contains so few sounds, most people probably play it with their speakers off anyway. Even if it were added, I get the feeling it would be criticized heavily.. Who knows, maybe someday.

Its an okay idea but to be honest its not something that is going to be used that enhances the game, I never use sounds, may be good for some.

I would like to see that added one day but it probably won't be added because people aren't that bothered by it and most people play with their speakers off anyway. Just sing the songs yourself for the time being

i think singing the songs to myself whilst playing might be a bit sad lol

i also play without sounds but thats because its so dull with the monotinous cheering, which is why i think the chants would be good

Try n0va's soundpack. It has chants when a player scores. The ever present Tudgay scored the match after I put it on and the fans started singing his name. Quality!

Btw, you won't see this in the game because of licensing issues.

^WHS

N0va does a pretty good job - find his thread, go to his website and download his soundpack.

ye why not:)

Too late for FM2009. I'm sure I read somewhere (possibly the blogs) that the sounds for FM2009 have been improved anyway.

Good idea, like NEJI said unfortunately it can't officially be coded.

I hate the annoying sound the fans make ATM, I always play with it off.

Adding chants in would make me actually listen to the droaning noise, which would eventually end with me using my FM09 disc as a frizbee.

People have the sound on?!

FM songs are alright, Ive bin playin FIFA 09 arsenal v everton (interactive leagues) and alls i can hear is "newcasatle, newcastle". now thats a joke

Miles has already said that there are new sounds on FM09 .

Most fans chants are based on copyrighted tunes/songs. To have them in the game would require royalty payments.

Wouldn't changing them into a chant for a player be considered fair use or a parody?

besides if you'd read the reports from SI the game is already in locked code, so nothing new will be added anymore..unless you want it for FM2010

New sounds are in the game already, and Nova has a good pack done as mentioned above.

I remember once hearing a chant in Fifa 08 that sounded suspiciously like the Barney song. It wasn;t the clearest chant, but the tune was suspiciously the song "Barney is a Dinasour blah blah blah bah" and so on

This was in an European Game, it scared me
