FIFA 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions

[Dangerzone_5]

While the game has at least changed the layout from 15 to 16 (I swear 14 to 15 had no layout changes) I am someone who plays a lot of MyCareer and I am not impressed like I thought I would be.

The training is a great little addition but I would have liked to see random transfers of your player. I like to take the MLS into Football League 2 and have them work their way up. It would be smart for the Crew to sell me after I am worth $14mil and spend that money elsewhere. Plus it would add an interesting dynamic to the game and the transfer window if you knew there was always a possibility of being sold.

Other than that there is no real depth to MyCareer and much of it is the same as last year packaged in a prettier box.

Oh and I have learned never to play on World Class lol.

Hey guys, I was watching career mode on YouTube where guy played with Bayern. I also play with Bayern. After he scores the goal, there is music in the stadium like in real life. When I play, there is no such thing, so I am interested if that is something you can activate, because I was searching for that, but I couldn't find. Thanks!

"Next thing is that I have seen many complains about that FIFA is scripted. Of course its scripted!! Its a videogame and EA wants us to have..."

I'm completely dominating... only up one nil.. he doesn't even have 1 off target shot yet... 90th minute comes... predictable goal from a corner where my player won't jump or does jump but my opponent doesn't even have to "win" the header... or the ball going through a body part on its path to goal or the game not allowing me to switch defenders.

Or was it even really me that was dominating?

You have to admit there must be something wrong with the game if you start seeing these kind of threads popping up: http://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Dis...ght/true#M1187

"Can someone confirm that FUT online seasons is scripted to try and persuade people to buy packs. My players seem slower, weaker and make more mistakes over the past few games, since I haven't bought any packs since I got the game! "

This game really makes no attempt to hide when its going to screw you. Just got done playing Man City with the Spurs (me), and it was such a frustrating experience because the game decided I will lose this match regardless what happens. My guys literally would mark themselves. Build up play was taking an eternity because my guys would internationally move and give me no passing lanes to get them the ball. When I did finally make it through I witnessed defenders slide tackling my guys from behind . One time they literally went through my guys legs from behind, somehow connecting with the ball first, taking my guy out in the process, no foul, and to top off such stupidity, have the tackle end in a ridiculous feat of physics lob ball going 30 meters down field to their own unmarked man.

Never mind every 50/50 mysteriously going to the CPU. Erikson who would magically develop the ball handling skills of a 5 year old and the turn radius of a Carnival Cruiseliner at the most inopportune time. Kane constantly being ran down but defenders with less pace and with a 10 meter lead.

I turned the game off at the 75 minute mark still 0-0 when a perfect through ball got me in a perfect 4 on 2 counter attack and Kane, Lamela, and Heung-min who all decided to converge on the exact same CB and ALL 3 jostled with the same player and all fell over at the exact same time.

I had to vent. I rather the game just tell me I lost before I waste time having to endure that again

I believe too.

Fifa series has been doing this for years. Weakening the users team while boosting the cpu or human opponent, this has always been in the dna of this game.

I mean it's the entire foundation of how they do the difficulty level as you move through them.

Your team is brilliant on beginner and the cpu is idiotic.
By the time you get to ultimate your team is dumb and the ai is flawless.

What gets everyone excited in a positive way is when it chooses to stay balanced but cpu slightly boosted to attack better. Then this is a hell of a game.

What gets everyone excited in a negative way is when the boosts and nerfs sway so far apart you blatantly witness them happening.

This is why one person can say this game is so amazing while a post or two later someone hates on the game.

Both points/observations are accurate.

Is this the only sports game that takes these rogue boosts and nerfs to this extreme? Trying to think of another one that does similar things as fifa, it would be if in madden you scored on the first drive so now when you try to tackle the cpu you cant, and you fumble if you run the ball. Madden people would go nuts if that happened.

All the PC users have posted multiple times that the game relies on specific commands/strings/scripts (call it as you prefer). I haven't seen even a single thread/post from console users demanding these strings to be available as global settings in the game. Believe me it's very easy for EA to implement these as ingame menu settings.
I'm sorry thegut but this is how the game is coded. I have already managed to disable all these "problems" via ini editing but I'm still in the minority that believes ManCity should have a boost over my team.
