Definitely the biggest leap forward in the gameplay department from one year to the next I've ever seen. It's not perfect, if I want to nitpick I certainly can find things wrong. But nothing but a standing ovay for the devs working on this game from me. Sent from my LG G4 using Tapatalk

This is true except for the minor exception that it stays on legacy, but still plays as tactical.

So it appears to save as legacy and stays when you go back and look at settings but it is not legacy controls.

I love this game! It is truly amazing. More later...I am too busy playing. Lol!

The winter gear bug is still in. Just edited Eden Hazard, started a new MM, turned on the snow and he had no sleeves on. All I did was bump his attacking up 3 points. I honestly don't know what to say anymore. I give up. They obviously have no idea of how to fix the issue completely.

Try editing him in MM and see if you can give him sleeves.

I guess that's still locked for me. I started a new MM using the same roster after putting sleeves on him and he had them in MM. So, apparently, if they already have sleeves (ex. Rooney) you can edit and they keep their sleeves, but if they only break out the sleeves for the winter, you can't edit their attributes or they lose that. Man, I'm just frustrated. If the stamina wasn't so low on certain players, I wouldn't even worry about it, but if you don't edit that, they rarely start for the CPU during MM.

I got called for handball 3 minutes into my first match. Glad to see it back.

Second match drew 1-1 after them conceding a penalty just before halftime then right after break Monreal fouls a Leicester player in scoring range and they get a goal from it and again sit back and soak up pressure and try to just counter me for the rest of the game; really good games and Leicester were not becoming formulaic with there attacks something I felt that in FIFA 15 teams just became way to predictable as they would always look to play on the wing. I am very excited to play more after dinner, as I plan to jump into team tactics and alternate some teams to see how it affects the gameplay. I will also say this, curious to see where EA Canada go from here with the series.

It's going to be really interesting Royce to see what/how EA patches this game.

Just scored the most realistic counter to seal a game at the end. AI was going all in at the end and I was able to get a break out and finished a 2 on 1 with a sliding kick for goal. My guy got killed by the goalie, but started to celebrate on the ground and while getting up. It just looked and felt so real. Tactics are finally working again and it is making the games more intense when the AI adjusts.
