*** The Official Fifa 16 Thread ***

I've tried quite a lot of different formations but mainly 4231-2 and 41212-2 - Non are really working for me - Can't seem to create chances with 433-4

Camera settings also - Which ones are you using

I use the standard one, tele broadcast I think? I tried using the really zoomed out once last year but couldn't get on with it.
 
Managed to pack TOTW Kagawa - not sure if I should hold onto him and shift him on and use the cash to start to build a team.

At the moment he is the only decent player in an otherwise endless river of ****.
 
Seems to be happening a lot with the pacey players, one minute there is none of them up, the next minute there is a bucketload of them. Noticed it happening with Douglas Costa quite a bit
 
Had a game earlier, winning 2-0, went to crap players couldn't pass etc and it was 2-2. I'd say less than a minute to go and thinking god i should have won, put my laces through the ball with Balotelli from outside the area and the goalkeeper saved it and pushed it out into the back of his defender and it bounced back into the goal. Had me in stitches and gave me a much needed win. :D
 
Took a break from FUT and went on pro clubs, good fun using the game face thing again and having your player look like shrek :D Just scored a screamer with him too and had some guy howling with laughter over the microphone when it did a close up of my guys face :D
 
Thinking of buying FIFA 16 not played fifa since 14 have a few questions

Is the gameplay the same as the demo?

Whats online like is their any lag?

Whats pro clubs like these days?

Is fut still scripted?

I'd say the gameplay is pretty damn similar to the demo, it's much more fun for me than last years.

I have had one game out of 30+ with lag, funnily enough it only started when i was winning and when i was defending so i couldn't defend.

Not tried pro clubs yet, i am sure someone else will tell you.

It feels it at times, other times it doesn't.
 
Been on Pro Clubs a fair bit today, pretty good fun, aside the usual Drop IN Game problems of some people thinking they can skill the world and score every time they touch the ball!
 
i'm liking the defence this year. In the past you'd put a cross in and no matter which direction the defender was i.e. facing goal they would be able to head clear out of the box. This time they only seem to be able to clear it in the direction their facing which seems more realistic.
 
^Yeah I noticed that. I've not played enough to get a grasp of whether crossing is a good option this year but last year they went way over the top in making sure that defenders won every single header - anyone offer some insight on this year? Is it worth having a taller ST and crossing occasionally in 16?
 
I've sort of figured the game out. You need to be facing the player you want to pass to. You cannot ping pong it about and you need to keep the stick held in that direction a lot longer than normal. If you can master this everything else comes naturally.

I'm finding 4231 with the LM and RM is the most effective.

You need 5 midfielders because that is where the game is won/lost now. The midfield battle is a crucial aspect of the game. I also believe you need wide players and 2 holding mids to sure up that back line.

4222 could be pretty good if you can afford high pace and high dribbling CAM's but I feel you only really need 1 striker because all your midfielders push forwards.

I am using some tall guy with high physical stats in my serie A team atm and if you can get to grips with crossing (it's completely different from the year before). It's very effective.

I'll give you a hint you need cross a lot earlier than you usually would and sometimes even use the early diagonal cross. Don't bother with the sprint to the line type of cross it doesn't work.
