FIFA 16 Video - Retail Vs. Demo Side By Side Gameplay Comparison

[ChaseB]

Some folks are concerned that the speed of the gameplay in the retail version of FIFA 16 is faster -- or will be faster -- than that of the FIFA 16 demo. So what we did is put the games side by side in the same environment.

We have Chelsea vs. Manchester City at night on Professional difficulty. The audio for the left video is in the left ear, the audio for the right video is in the right ear.

So, do you see any differences?

Woot! Man City vs Chelsea

First two minutes and you see so much good from the CPU. Hold up play, backpassing, switch of play, and a foul. If a CF got that pass in 15 in their own zone, they would have immediately went to goal every single time. EA's programmers deserves credit on this one as they finally implemented the basics that have been missing for the most part. I love the direction this is going now and they need to hear about it if we want it to continue. I cannot wait till Tuesday and if tactics end up even half working.....


Thanks Chase.

The problem is, this is H2H gameplay. They wouldn't change that gameplay. The H2H game is always pretty great every year.

What the community is worried about is Ultimate Team. That's the gameplay that EA loves to drastically change with each build of the game prior to release.

Furthermore, you posted pre-release gameplay. EA loves to release day one patches to drastically change FUT gameplay. They did it with Fifa 14. The gameplay you posed in the video (which seems to be pretty much the same as the demo build) could be drastically different on the 22nd.

Just to play devil's advocate here, usually the "day one" patch that comes with games is usually out before the game is released. I'm not sure if one is out yet or not with FIFA but would just like to point that out (nothing notified me via EA Access but it didn't with NHL either and that patch was out before the game released). But obviously I can't compare online head to head FUT from the demo to the full game so yeah.

On PS4 the update "day one patch" downloaded for me today. Of course we do not have EA Access. So, I have no clue what the update included.
