My fear exactly. In any case, if this info is true, expect that to be the main upgrade we will get for 17 and little more. If PES can get their act together with fouls and editing again, I may go back over to them.

Hopefully this doesn't mean they don't significantly update manager careers

Battlefront is probably the best looking multiplayer game on ps4 so this seems like good news

Good questions. I also thought, that Ignite Engine is supposed to be the Engine for sports gaming in the next few years.

Anyway, it just a rumor at the moment. And I think its not true, because of the fact that Ignine Engine is fresh for the EA Sports Games at the moment.

So does this mean they have to record all these animations again?
This would be a lot of work. It took years to get to the amount of animations we had in FIFA 16. Or is it possible to take animations from one engine to another?

This would be great, because I think visually the Frostbite engine is the most beautiful engine right now.

Better looking than Overwatch? I beg to differ, with all due respect of course.

Either way, sounds like an upgrade so that can't be bad.

Well, it sounds like they're doing SOMEthing to try and improve the game. I certainly have no problem with that. Hope it works out!

Which game though? This is across the board it sounds like. And I have no problem with that.

Personally I am interested in seeing what it does for the NHL series.
