Gameplaywise i don't have any big criticism, just odd that small teams have a ball-posession of >50% against me.
Oh yeah, I did hear about and notice the penalty changes, but I thought that was for the best.

If only they cared about any other game mode besides UT

Nothing seems to be changed from the few games I played, I am talking about gameplay wise...

Dunno, played FIFA 16 a lot prior to patch 1.05 which made gameplay kind of clunky, players didn't make runs, got the feeling players got in the mud, individuality was toned down with 1.05 patch.

However, 1.06 patch made a 180 degree here. Just like last patch on FIFA 15 did for me.

This feels to me like new game and I have NOT touched sliders at all. Playing on World Class I see animations I have not seen before and GK are now more believable. Defensive positioning seems to be tuned a lot and now through balls actually can make it past AI defense (before 99% of attempts were blocked).

I gave up on FIFA 16 in December. Months went by and I said to myself there won't be another patch for FIFA 16 and so deleted it. My mate said new update was out on PC and consoles, so re-downloaded it. Feck, now I am stuck in CM mode again lol. Gameplay feels really good.

What is the consensus? No game play changes with this last patch?

Easy does it. That's just one post so far that is stating there are gameplay changes. From who I've talked to, they said there is no change.

I'm not going to update it until there is more of an overall consensus. My reason for not updating is because I am on the PC and an update like this may alter the modded database, or corrupt my cherished CM files.

Based on previous post on this thread there is: - 2 persons that say no change - 1 that say dramatic change. So it is a rather small sample size and it is reason why I asked. So far I didn't dowloaded the patch myself because I don't want to ruin a gameplay I am very happy with (No more rabbit hole before next edition). But if others were more courageous than me I would be greatful if they could share their experience with us.

I have only noticed one change but that night be because I'm playing tournament and not a career anymore.

The change is in on screen stats. It will say pass accuracy is 67% and then 5 minutes later it will say 100%.

But in terms of actual on the field play, I have not noticed anything.

Perhaps it's the fact that I've never even seen what the online options are much less played them, but I don't have a single problem with FIFA. I play the PC Version, tournament and career which I modify with tools so there are no injuries or transactions. I've never had a problem. I am slightly afraid of this last update though which people say has harmed the gameplay so I'm just not upgrading which doesn't bug me cause I don't go online in video games anyway.

Well, been playing this extensively since patch was released, offline, online, FUT and I can definitely say, gameplay DID change. It's better than ever.

It reminds me of what EA did with FIFA 15 at the end of that game cycle, releasing gameplay patch underneath last patch, but not mentioning it. It's like preparing ground for next FIFA and testing stuff.

If this is how FIFA 17 will feel, I am definitely going to buy it. Hopefully they add similar to MyGM mode like they are willing to do with NHL to FIFA. That would be complete revamp of Career Mode.

I am very happy (and didn't have other choice as PS4 updates games on its own lol). Definitely had to re-learn how to play it.
 
# 36 info0 @ 06/05/16 11:57 AM
Och and one more thing, it's definitely not placebo effect as my mate on PC and at least 4 or 5 people from PS4 I know can also confirm there is definitely a change. Crazy I know.

These are very vague descriptions. Can you elaborate more, please? I know you record and commentate, maybe something like that?

Anyone else maybe? Sorry, without descriptive proof, it's nothing but a placebo.

What do you want to know?

AI seems to be attacking way more than before, there is more space and time on the ball, they are not pressure whoring you all the time. The defense is solid, but you can split it now with through ball (was quite a task before). I play on World Class and I can definitely see improvement.

I also saw few new animations I have never seen before, more yellow/red cards following reckless challenges. Once I start playing it I cannot put it down for good few hours. It's that good now. Whereas before I got frustrated and quit after 1 game lol.

Doesn't matter now since FIFA 17 announcement snippet trailer came out. FIFA 17 will be using Frostbite instead of Ignite for the first time. Excited as never before!

So it sounds like most people are avoiding this patch, a couple say no noticeable change and there is one clear fan.

Can anybody say that this patch has caused them a negative experience?
