FIFA 2005

FIFA 2005 is the twelfth game in the football simulation series. The developers have brought back the character editor and improved the 15-season career. A "first touch" mechanic was introduced, allowing for more realistic passes. Mexican Primera League added as a new league. The faces of the game were Patrick Vieira, Fernando Morientes and Andrey Shevchenko. FIFA 2005 includes: • 25 leagues representing 21 countries; • 12 clubs from 5 countries whose championships were not added to the game; • 39 national teams; • 31 arenas in 7 countries. About 20 of the stadiums are prototypes of real arenas, while the rest were created to represent the pitch for matches of "rest of the world" countries whose leagues were not included in the main game. Weather conditions have improved significantly, which now greatly affects physics. The developers of FIFA Football 2005 tried to give the ball more “life”, which allowed them to add more animation. For example, you can knock the ball out from under the leader's feet or make a small pass at high speed. The one-touch system allows a football player not to waste time processing a pass, but to immediately perform actions with it: an instant pass, a icing or a shot. This mechanic significantly speeds up the gameplay and makes matches dynamic. Artificial intelligence studies the player's behavior pattern and adapts to the playing style. At the same time, AI football players have learned to build more interesting pass combinations and act more competently in defense. Management now allows you not to get stuck on one team, but, if desired, change the club every season. The coach begins his journey with little-known teams, gradually increasing his rating and skills, after which he can sign contracts with Arsenal, Real Madrid, Milan, etc. The main resources are experience points and budget. Points are distributed to improve the staff headquarters, with the ability to upgrade athletes or hire doctors or financiers. Money is spent on transfers. But it is worth considering that top athletes are not always ready to sign a contract due to the low prestige of the club. It takes a lot of effort to get a player.
