World Cup USA 94

macce2 · 21 February 2022, 20:47

Hello,

Does any working WHDload install / installer for this game exist ?!
I own the original WC USA 94 floppy disks,
but the game doesn't fully work on my A4000 060.
And anyway, the disk access times are very long
with this game.

Update: Ok the game comes with an ancient HD install script
and it does even work ( but 4 Gb limit)..
Without fastmem, the game does seem to work.
But anyway, a WHDload install would be far more combatible ..

I'll see about creating a patch for this game.

A patch for this game is now available, have fun.

Many thanks, StingRay!
I will try that as soon as I can.

Ok, seems to work!
Nice work, StingRay !
I think this game certainly isn' t the best of its genre,
but has some interesting options and elements.
Shame that the engine appears to be awful.
With better engine, this game would rock !

I bought the game back in the day and I tried so hard to like it, but hated it so much in the end. I seem to remember the game paused when you scored a goal....why???

I thought the game presentation is nice though.

In my opinion Sierra Soccer was the best "World cup 94" game.

The game is way too easy and no real fun to play. When creating the patch, I completed the World Cup with no problems and often scored more than 10 goals in one match (2x3 minutes). There are indeed much better games.

The menu system is an obstacle to navigate - I think it plays like a brick. Could have been so much better - some un-tapped potential there.

Doesnt feel like you are hitting the back of the net either when you score a goal. Megadrive and Snes versions played better

Is the game when you jumped to head the ball the player jumped very very high?

I think that is Fighting Soccer - even worse

No, fighting soccer is top down, the game I'm thinking of is like a poor man's Manchester united in Europe. It isn't world cup 90 either
