Is it any better than the demo? If there any difference in the way teams play?

Thanks, what about the crowd atmosphere in the promoted epl teams like qpr compared to the big teams?

Have only played 2 games both using high profile teams - atmosphere was really nice for both games, but obviously comparable.

My EA access runs through Sunday; will be downloading this when I get home.

Can someone please check if they corrected the USA colors and if they have red shorts on the away uniforms? Thank you

I haven't played it yet. But I think I remember reading an article saying that jerseys for most national teams were changed. I am trying to read the article but my internet is sucking.

Alright If you let me know or a picture of them, that'd be great lol

Although my time has been brief, I can already see the keepers are still somewhat wonky, but, but, but, Access builds do not include the day 1 patch so there is still hope.

Yep, I remember seeing on twitter that they were messing with the code for the keepers for the day 1 patch.

All languages are there. But again, they will get stripped down to regional only for the retail release.

# 33 Dos_Santos @ 09/18/14 10:07 PM

Absolutely loving it.

It has been a long, long time since I have craved to play a sports game like this...maybe Virtua Tennis on the Dreamcast.

# 34 gopher_guy @ 09/18/14 10:10 PM

Got EA Access (and will probably cancel it after this month) just so I could play this game early, haha. Can't wait! Installing now!

The Bomb Pop jerseys are finally correct. Red shorts are in the game!

I do not have access, but I watched around an hour of streams from a few playing Pro Leagues and also noticed more fouls in that mode as well. If this holds up, I am going to be stoked.

Anyone else noticing a decent amount of fouls this year? How about the CPU aggression on offense?

I noticed this as well on the demo ... The clock also keeps running during substitutions, corner kicks, etc. For me, after having some time with the demo (and the impressions I've been reading thus far here, its a 'no-brainer', first day purchase!

I ended up winning 2-1 on this howler of a goal that Muslera gave up. Pro, 6 min, normal speed. Both teams pass% was sub 80 (71% me, 76% Gala). Gala attacked me well, getting 7 shots off (only 1 on target) and winning 55% of the possession. 5 total fouls, 4 corners. -Still can't "save" a slider set. This is 2014, in what game would you expect not to be able to save settings files?

Thanks for sharing your impressions my friend ... I had the same feeling as you when I played the demo. I thought the AI of my teammates was absolutely ridiculous on defense ... BUT then I discovered the 'individual instruction' that can be assigned to each player on the pitch. This absolutely changed the game for me! I was amazed that I could hold the CPU to as low as a 65% pass accuracy. Yep ... 65% for the CPU (PSG) vs. Chelsea (me). Then I held Manchester City to 72% pass accuracy (I was Chelsea). Note that I also changed my team's (Chelsea) tactic to possession. I may be the minority, but I absolutely LOVE the defensive battles that I'm getting. My one tip is that when your defending, you need to really pick your spots on when to contain, cut off passing lanes by giving some room, trying to predict the CPU's passing, and what has been awesome to see is that if you really time your slide tackles the ball doesn't 'magically' get to the CPU's feet or an instant carding/warning by the ref. It is really a live ball!

I also feel that on Pro level, the players on the pitch reflect their ratings.

Playing with Barcelona feels absolutely different than playing with Chelsea. Playing that tiki-taka style is much easier obviously w/ Barca, than trying to pull that off with Chelsea. And when I've been playing the CPU, I feel threatened when Ibrahimovic, Messi, Neymar, etc are getting in attack mode or in a one-on-one situation against me.

And not to mention, FOULS! I see a good bit of them for both sides. Yellows, reds, & warnings...Its awesome!

As you can see, this iteration of Fifa is a definite, 'no-brainer' for me ...

This is a bit disconcerting and hopefully EA can address before release w/ a patch! I never had this issue with FIFA 14 on ps4.

Yep. Fouls are being called and it is awesome.

I just don't understand how this game can be so fun and all of the other sports releases are turds.

Just a flat out fun experience.
