*** The Official Fifa 16 Thread ***

Have a read a few posts above or previous page. Pretty straight forward albeit not strictly legit

Oh yeah! Having just tried to change my details on the xbox website, it's told me because I requested to change my details, I won't get a new code until 10th October, so I can't change my stuff. Bag of ********!
 
Played it for a couple of hours, Local shops here have a habit of selling it "early". Quite a few disconnects so far, definitely slower than Fut 15, even after a 350 odd Meg patch. Trying to figure out which formation to use atm...
 
Should be getting this on Thurs for the XB1. Should have some spare points to gift someone some of the EA Catalogue coin bonuses etc. On a similar note, apart from those coin bonuses, what are some of the better ways to grind some coins?
 
Not getting some of the complaints this year personally,the passing seems better,through balls ain't over powered as much and the slower pace feels good
 
I'm getting a lot of mixed messages about the games. The reviews are all over the place.

Gamespot gave it a 9. However, that review was done by an American. So unsure whether I should take his review seriously.

IGN's review was done by a Brit and was given a 7 iirc. And pointed out that PRO EVO has taken the 2016 crown!

Now I already have PRO EVO. And I've found the gameplay just fine. Where it falls short is in the presentation dept. This is why I was so looking forward to FIFA. A may just bag it anyway.

I really want to like PES every year but I've never get further than the demo just because of the terrible presentation!

Tried this year's demo and lasted about 3 games before binning it off! (it didn't help that my keeper made a save and in the process of standing up, the ball crossed the line and was given as a goal! :p)

Does anyone know if Tesco will be doing any deals on release this year? (I know Sainsburys are doing the standard version for £35 if you buy £30+ of groceries)

One review I'd never take seriously is IGN's, didn't they sponsor PES in some way in previous years or were paid by Konami for good reviews...something happened between them that's for sure!
 
My Amazon order has been despatched :)


I added you on PSN earlier this year to send you some Pro Club items from the catalogue on Fifa 15. If you want anything on Fifa 16 then feel free to let me know either on here or send a message on PSN (my PSN username is neal-nffc) and I'll hook you up :) I'm around level 76-77. I'm in Amsterdam from Thursday until Tuesday, so I won't be on Fifa 16 until next week. :(

I remember. It was much appreciated! We'll have to get some games in this year. :)

Mine has been despatched, should arrive for tomorrow. :)
 
Bloody hell I'm struggling with this, my record is pretty much as it was last year so far, 50% wins, then 30% losses and 20% draws roughly. I've actually won my last 2 games even though I definitely didn't deserve to.

The passing is the biggest difference, I like that it's more difficult, but there's SO many changes of possession in midfield and it gets a bit silly sometimes. I'm finding that the players are quite slow on the ball so by the time you've controlled it and turned to face the way you want to play the ball to make sure it's an accurate pass, you've been tackled.

I prefer it to 15 I think, it'll just take some getting used to.

Who is setting up an Xbox pro club?
 
has anyone done a FUT draft yet? really looking forward to that mode

Yeah I've done a few of them. I like it, makes a nice change from just playing with your normal FUT team and the rewards seem pretty decent so far as well.

Last night I played an online draft, won my first match but lost my second, and I got 3 gold packs, one was a premium jumbo and the other two were normal gold packs I think.

that's really good. I get hooked on the "cup" style competitions, with a real sense of achievement to win one. Plus, like you say it gives you a chance to play with players you may not normally be able to afford.
 
Yeah I think it's a really nice addition this year, looking forward to playing more of it. Trouble is it's 15k coins to enter (or 300 FIFA points), but you do get packs at the end of it so it's like buying packs with a bit more fun involved.
