FIFA 16 Gameplay and FUT Draft Videos From Gamescom

[Krebstar]

I'm hoping the fact that we only saw long passes for the women's teams is that I believe all other gameplay videos that have been seen are human vs human, and not against the AI.

The key will just be that they fixed the tactics, as last year the AI ignored the tactics you assigned to them.

In FIFA 14, if you want the AI to play the ball long, you can make them do it so consistently it becomes aggravating. Nothing last year, though, so seeing this in these videos shows some promise.

Tactics being ignored was a huge eyesore for me. It is the only reason why I only played as 3 star or less teams in FIFA 15. Got tired of seeing my DMF ignore the assigned tactic of not going forward while attacking, I really hope that changes for this year.

I liked the idea of "team sheets" and the instructions aspect of it, but it just wasn't done the right way, and mostly didn't work.

I definitely miss the old system of positioning arrows, along with setting the attacking and defending work rates, as those things actually worked.

really expecting for FIFA16, it seems that the scene and design are all better than before.

I'm expecting a bigger jump from 15 to 16 than there was from 14 to 15. When 15 first came out, I remember thinking it seemed more like DLC than a new game.

So far, the changes are looking pretty positive.

The entire shape of the formations are spot on, really like how players are reacting to the ball. I also like the midfield to defensive midfield playing a part without being chaotic (ala PES).

Good stuff. Still waiting for that P1 v CPU video

Matt, what do you mean by long ball trajectory?
