dafuge probably was joking, but who knows what will be popular in 2011? How can the OP predict afros will not be popular in 2011?

Dear god , not exactly a life or game threatening bug.

So prehaps people want to have afro's in 2011? So what? Its not exactly a bug is it. The software implimented into the game to do the facegen is brand new this year, and for the main part works well. Just because lots of people have afro's doesnt mean its wrong?

I assume he means it's offensive. It's being stereotypical by giving black regens afros. If he isn't then its much ado about nothing.

Either way I think its a bit of an over-reaction to demand a refund. Next it will be because someone has had the cheek to call a player Mohammed

Seriously please follow these steps,

Go to Add/Remove Programs,
Uninstall FM 08
Take disc out of drive,
Snap them,
Open door,
Go outside
Walk to pub,
See friends


If this still angers you so much then seriously get help... as soon as you can!

I'd love to be there when you take it back to the shop and explain to them why you want a refund:

'I want a refund because too many players have afro's for my liking'.

I'm having the exact same problem as the OP and it's becoming a showstopper for me.Since my 19y.o. wonderkid decided to grow an afro, his acceleration and pace have gone down from 18 to 13.I just don't play him on windy days anymore.His heading has also suffered hugely.He used to score all the time from near post flick-ons during corners but now he just heads it straight out every single time I'm playing with the latest patch btw
