It looks like the latest roster update is out. Just downloaded it.

# 102 Scarlleter @ 06/04/14 06:44 AM

The 2014 world cup is coming soon, Brazil will be busy.

does anyone have problems with US roster in world cup mode? it only happens with the updated roster, like i cannot switch the players and when i put the real 23 players are left out.

ex: for the update that just came i went to play world cup mode with the real 23, and Bedoya and Rimmando were automatically left off and Boyd and Donovan were put in there place.

I've had the same problem, and it is extremely frustrating. It also seems to be rather random, I've tried it like 10-15 times and gotten different results of random non-23 roster players on the roster when you finish your selection.

Get the same thing with Colombia. The last four on the roster are cut off. In their place I get the 4th string goalie, and 3 players who did not make the team.

As an update, it appears they have fixed the 23-man roster issue. I was able to successfully select my 23-man roster without the bug resurfacing late last night. Hope it is working now for everyone else as well.

I did indeed get it to work last night when entering the World Cup Finals mode. Would be really, really curious if it now works in the full World Cup (qualifying) mode. Going through the whole qualifying process and then having 5 backup goalies added to my squad for the World Cup is not something I'm interested in. Haven't even started playing the mode yet while waiting for this to get fixed.

Maybe this is the right thread to ask this question.

I'm a big fan of the World Cup and Euro Cup but not a big fan of all the club teams. Should I get fifa 14 or fifa World Cup? The only reason I ask this question is because fifa World Cup I been reading some bad reviews on it.

Canes,
Basically it boils down to this, there are 203 National Teams in Fifa World Cup, where you can take through the qualifying and World Cup mode. In Fifa 14 there are 57 of them, where you can play only friendlies with them, unless you are picked to manage a international team in Career mode.

I am enjoying Fifa World Cup, I am not a big soccer fan so maybe I am just taking it at face value and having fun with it.

# 110 dickey1331 @ 06/05/14 02:56 PM

I love the World Cup game. I would get that game since you don't like club teams and like national teams.

# 111 juand @ 06/06/14 12:27 AM

I am avoiding playing a full qualification mode until they fix the decreasing player attributes glitch. Every time I've tried, James Rodriguez has gone down from like an 83 OVR to like a 78 by the 2nd qualifers game! It's a deal breaker in my opinion

Having a lot of fun with the demo and considering picking this up...

Is there perhaps a setting for "ongoing fatigue" that is maybe having this impact on the form?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure its just a glitch and players decrease ratings even when in top form.

Aside from the little things like this, the game is great and I wouldn't discourage anyone from getting it.

# 114 comet013 @ 06/07/14 03:54 PM

It seems only players that are in the starting XI have the form drop glitch. So if you put your starting XI that you are going to use on the bench and put reserves in the XI it keeps your top players in form. When you about to start the match just place the players back in the starting XI.

Anyone else has problem with Mexico in RTWC mode. Game freezing when play Mexico home match, also if play away match against Mexico.
I have no problems before the latest Squad update.

# 116 dipatach @ 06/08/14 02:36 PM

Just got the game today. Very disappointed to see so many teams with generic jerseys. I purchased this game to play with the obscure teams and those teams visually don't look good

# 117 wjmooner @ 06/09/14 01:03 PM

The roster glitch still is there on my 360. I downloaded the most recent roster updates, and was so excited (sarcasm) to have Julian Green and his 63OVR rating instead of Landon Donovan and his 79OVR on the USMNT. I then started up a new World Cup, made no roster changes, and ended up with Donovan, Boyd, and a couple others who aren't on the team.

Same glitch when you try to make changes to the roster as well. In fact, it wouldn't even let me swap out the final four spots. Somehow in moving guys around I ended up without a backup goalie due to the glitch in one tournament.

So annoying. Seems as though it should be a simple error to fix. Worked fine on WC 2010 (and FIFA 13 and 14 for that matter with the national teams).

Yep its not just Mexico! Its with a whole heap of home teams and it occurs when you play in the Amsterdam Arena! goisles01 made this post about it which sums it up
"The latest roster updates have caused a game crippling bug, at least in "Road to World Cup" mode. Some countries default home stadium has defaulted to "Amsterdam Arena". When you click on "play match" the game will freeze deader than dead. When your countries home arena is "Amsterdam", and you're not the Netherlands, you can't play any home qualifiers or friendlies or any road matches that have the bug. You can find out which match has the bug by viewing the calendar. If a match shows time and stadium then its safe to be played, if it doesn't it shouldn't be played under any circumstance unless you like hard resets. This is a list of countries that I found to have the bug so far...

Argentina
Mexico
Italy
Chile
Honduras
Ghana

I found that simulating through the matches works, but this makes the game unplayable and absolutely needs to be fixed."
Does anyone know when a patch is going to be released?

# 120 ali.chila @ 06/12/14 04:24 AM

any squad update released after 3 june?
