Word, G.

16 took a real turn in the sim direction which i loved. they only needed to tighten a few issues for the USER AI and loosen a bit of the passing & tackling & positional precision of the CPU AI and it woulda been one helluva a year for me and fifa!

got a horrible feeling all the fut and kids who could no longer span sprint and thru-balls and who were screaming the loudest about fifa 16 will get their way, and we'll see fifa 15.5 post patch.

EA managed to ruin the game in just 10 days after release. That's quite an accomplishment for this company. Well done to EA and all the community kiddies for this impressive record. You all got back now the psychic pace and the arcade fest you were missing all these 10 days.
I think console gamers are doomed right now to play this mess as I think they can't bypass the game update.
As I knew that this company is maybe the worst videogaming company on the planet I had already copied the whole folder of the vanilla game so I can delete the game and apply it again.
Again congratulations to EA and the "community".

Oh! There are some positives also. Defensive positioning of both teammates and cpu AI is improved, there are more fouls, cpu tackles more and that's it.

I'm away from the console for the weekend. Could you possibly post some gameplay?

Whoa... I never give EA the benefit of the doubt but theres no possible way you've had enough time to tinker with sliders and come to the conclusion that the game is a lost cause.

People we're saying that 16 was so much different than the demo, but then I played it and it wasn't that bad. Hoping for the same here.

yeah it take a minimum of a few days of solid playing and slider tinkering before you could come up with the notion the game is broken.


there's always lotsa knee-jerking around the 1st patch.

Tinker with sliders? I was playing on default sliders pre-patch and tested the post patch gameplay the same way. Slow speed now is like the fast option . I can't even imagine how the game plays on normal or fast.
Believe it or not they've ruined the whole gameplay. The cpu is now extremely direct in passing and there's no build up play. Everything is gone.
I'm already replacing the update with the original folder.
Just wait and see how this thread will explode with complaints.
