Can all be fixed by adjusting player positioning and work rates in the formation editor, team line positioning and even aggression, and by adjusting line and run sliders. You have to put the effort and do that yourself, create custom formations etc. On top of that, FIFA 15 has a new feature where you can assign individual players specific tactics/roles, just pause the game, choose the player, and assign him a role. This might be the most innovative new feature in the series since sliders, if it works properly.

Exactly. I've been experimenting with it a bit and it absolutely works #1 and #2 yeah it's awesome.

I always was a big critic of the series (and right so). But I have to admit that I haven't had this much fun with a football game in a long time. The demo is really promising. If FIFA also makes progression of the field (i.e. transfers, finance in GM modes) this actually could be a winner for me.

The most exiting feature for me is the voice recognition, it's just nice to change tactics and other stuff by voice, the only difficult thing to use was the offside command because it takes 1 second from your voice command until your team is reacting. But the feature itself is just great!
whoaaaa wait a minuteeeeee... i did not know about this voice recognition, idk how either cause ive been following this game religiously... what system is this for, both xbone and ps4?? i have ps4, please tell me i can do this... lol

full manual here as well, what exactly do you mean auto switch on passes? are you talking about when you pass it and the player you pass to automatically turns into user controlled? or the cpu auto switching to a player when its a 50/50 ball or just defending?

I affectionately refer to them as evolution rejects. That has been one of the graphic knock on FIFA, the player models, and they are starting to stick out more and more with the beautiful atmosphere around them :-)

Broadcst camera has been in fifa for over 10 years, it's nothing new haha.

Fantastic demo, the presentation has taken a huge leap. For years FIFA has lagged behind all the US sports titles in the presentation department. Now it appears to be on par with the likes of MLB and 2K. If you watch Sky Sports coverage over here, it's almost scarily accurate.
