Will Euro 2004 have the same file formats as FIFA 2004?
Yes it will. While the graphics engine has been tweaked and improved, the underlying file formats are still the same so moving from FIFA Football 2004 editing to Euro 2004 editing shouldn't be a problem.
Is there going to be a Euro 2004 Creation Centre? If so, will it only be on PC or will there be a console version too?
There are no plans for a Euro 2004 Creation Centre, either for PC or console.
What kind of music will we get with the game?
Like in FIFA Football 2004 you'll hear a mix of music styles from different countries. Having said that, the music is a a little more "rock" based this time around as that style of music is seeing a big resurgence in Europe.
Will PC online play include a Direct IP option?
No, Direct IP play will not be an option in UEFA Euro™ 2004 on PC.
In FIFA Football 2004 players often don’t take a ball with them in a run. Strikers will often turn around waiting for the pass instead of taking it with them in the run. Will the improved passing system in Euro 2004 address this somewhat?
Yes it will. There will be times when a player will wait, and times when the player takes the ball in stride. This is an area we’ve worked on specifically for UEFA Euro™ 2004.
Will you be able to change formation during matches?
Yes, this option will be included.
Will there be extra cinematics this year? For example a player being moved off the field if he's injured or substitution animations?
There are indeed extra Non-Interactive Sequences this year. We have them for substitutions and injuries this time around. We don’t have players being moved off the field however, as we felt it would take too long – we think you'd rather get back into the action than watch the stretched moved all the way onto the pitch and off again. We have new camera angles and cinematics specific to Euro Mode as well.
Though the keeper AI in FIFA Football 2004 was certainly the best yet in an EA SPORTS football game, will it be further improved for Euro 2004?
Yes. This is a continuing evolution on all of our football titles. Specific time was spent on goal keeper AI on Euro.
