EA Sports has announced that FIFA Manager 10, which is due to be released on the PC during the fall, is set to be the first game in the series that will have an online play mode allowing players to go through the management simulation title against one or more human beings both via the Internet or via LAN.
FIFA Manager has always been in the shadow of well-known and liked management simulation titles like Championship Manager and Football Manager but EA Sports is pressing forward in its quest to make the game relevant by adding multiplayer options, which have been asked by players repeatedly.
Gerald Kohler, who is the lead designer of the FIFA Manager videogame series, declared that “We’re incredibly pleased to be able to give fans what they’ve been asking for with the new online mode in EA SPORTS FIFA Manager 10. This is the first time that they will be able to compete against each other and really find out who’s the best manager. The online mode is free and you can play at least two seasons with up to eight players in one session.”
FIFA Manager 10 is also set to include other improvements with EA Sports saying that most of them have been based on the feedback that the development team received from players of the series. EA Sports is promising better Artificial Intelligence, both when it comes to overall management and to match tactics, better animations for the 3D mode, a customizable desktop for the player with 30 widgets and 50 desktop objects, which can be used and customized.
When it comes to the database included in FIFA Manager 10, EA Sports is saying that more than 3,6000 clubs are simulated and 31,000 players have their stats simulated in the game, of which 9,000 have original pictures. It also has an Editor function allowing any gamer to add new players and change the stats for those already included.
