[Football] Fifa 16

[HHGull]

Playable demo now available for Xbox One. Other platforms are either already available, or will be by 10th September.

Ten playable teams, including two ladies sides, and two new stadiums included in the demo. Full game out on 24/9/15.

Just set mine to download remotely ready for when I get in from work. Good stuff.

How is it? I wonder how good the Albion will be on it and whether there have been some positive star adjustments after our excellent start...

 

[Wellesley]

It annoys me that I can buy the disc on pre-order for £43.99, and be able to get some money back should I wish to trade it in, yet if I want to download a digital copy from the PlayStation store, where I have a few quid credit, it will cost me £54.99.

LuaLua downgraded by 2? As is stockdale? Were last seasons shambles enough to warrant downgrades to players who I thought were actually HALF-decent last season? On a more positive note, BFG upgraded by 4, and we have a 74-rated striker in hemed again!

Stockdale had a tough season and has admitted as much - he's looked far better so far this season. Kaz was alright.

Kayal's rating better go up quite a way - he's our best player.

He's only 27, still has potential to go for a lot of money.

Where can you see the stats for our team for fifa16? Or can anyone post? Also how do we rate as a team overall compared to other teams in our league...?

Played both fifa 16 n pes 2016 demos. Pes plays a better game. May not be fully licensed but most player names are correct

PES demo is pretty decent, I was playing some good stuff with Juve, really feels good.

as an FYI, if any of you are desperate to ever get something the day before release. Make a New Zealand PS Store account and you can access emos etc the day before.

Fifa dribbling feels far too easy playing with better teams, the amount of time I ran the ball from half way through on goal with ronaldo was ridiculous! This was on World class!

The first thing that struck me was that it wasn't very intuitive when changing to the most appropriate player (when defending). I'm sure it's just one of those things that you get used to though. Maybe they have tried to make it more of a manual change than an automatic.

Can you get it for PS Vita or Nintendo DS?

Playstation explained why Store is so expensive a while back - it's essentially so that it doesn't become real competition with the retailers, which they rely on for games promotions... but you'll still find decent offers in their sales.

In regards to FIFA 16, I'm going to break my boycott of the game, if only because Bobby's back home and he will score for fun on it.

Break your boycott? Why did you boycott in the first place? I've boycott since Fifa 13 after having it from Fifa 08, and have no intention of going back. Life is much simpler without that bug riddled, anger inducing game in my house.

A tip! If you push the right analog stick when not in posession, it changes the active player to the player in the direction you push! So instead of bashing L1 until you get the player you want, you can be far more accurate!

PS3 demo seems not much different to last year Will still succumb and buy for FUT and updated squads :'(

they won't put much effort into updating the game for the older systems

to be fair, they don't put much resource into anything other than FUT anyway as they can suck more money out of people that way

I had one quick game on the demo last night, i'll have to give it a good try next week when I get some time for gaming. I skipped FIFA 15 and am still playing 14 with my all conquering Albion squad of sheer brilliance.

I think I'm alone in not understanding the concept of FUT. if you've just spunked £50 on a game, why on earth would you spunk untold amounts more just to play it on a level playing field? Absolute madness dreamt up by EA to mug schoolboys of their pocket money

 

[TonyW]

My little boy hates FUT and won't play it.
I can't figure out exactly what it is, so I don't play it either ☺

You don't HAVE to spunk loads of money with in game purchases, it is just an easy way of getting a better squad. There are many ways of making cash on FUT.
