*** The Official Fifa 16 Thread ***

Makes no difference to me, I always played better with cheaper squads anyway and would find myself beating most players with awesome teams. Played someone yesterday with pretty much the best 11 in the BPL and he was trash.
 
Really struggling this year, I'm in Division 7, currently 2-0-3 with a team that really should be doing better. Hopefully I'm just coming up against people that have spent a ton of time on the demo while I'm still making the adjustment.
 
So are the issues particular to FUT or is that the only one mentioned because its all most people play?

Think it's all we play to be honest :) I did a bit of Seasons last year but it was so slow and boring and just not enjoyable without the progression / build-your-own aspects
 
Tempted to buy it for Club, but last years and the fact I sold it, makes an automatic purchase (like Ive done since 09) unlikely. Hearing the comments while knowing most, if not all, think its better than 15 leave me undecided! Seems different here doesn't mean just good...

FUT become irrelevant sadly as seems harder and harder to make coin without an initial cash injection and players are just too expensive to even attempt to buy. Dno what happened to the market after 12...

I actually enjoy starting of with poorer players and building up - some people buy packs and resort in luck - Its good that you cant buy coins and easily build up these great teams.,... Playing other teams with similar mismatch of players is better.... some people want the uber teams from the start and not build up.

Fifa this year feels weird, slow and very hard to attack. Ive always played slow build up and prefer that way.... The players first touch always feels clumsy and you really have to think before passing as you can easily get ball stealed from you or misplaced passes... Facing direction and passing actually makes a difference (probably why lots of people are complaining as in fifa15 you could pass facing any direction!)....

Game seems to skew the players and movement so they will always steal the ball.....

I really don't like the shirt pulls and some people seemed to have mastered it so they don't get called up for fouls and constantly disrupt your player...

Penalty decisions seems slightly better but sometimes call stupid fouls when you were just brushing against them shoulder to shoulder....

I don't see the point of off the ball dribble yet - no1 has done it to me and ive tried using it but failed badly...



The game is in the right direction but still has some way to go....

Arrrrgh, I'm finding this game infuriating now. I just cannot get a good run of results, I'm either eking out a win or getting a lucky draw, but it seems like more recently as other people are getting better I'm just getting hammered. My record is 32-10-20, and 4 of those wins were single player. I'm so much worse at this than 15.

What formations are people finding good for dominating the midfield and creating chances?
 
Hmm
Lost first three games 5-2, 2-0, 4-0

My only two goals were some ridiculous rubber banding in my favour at 3-0 and 5-1
Not sure I like this at all
Passing just seems utterly random
I one-two on the edge of the box and my player passes to an opponent on the half way line who jigs past my team and scores

Ok, so I'm a huge fan of Fifa and their games. Endless hours of fun. However, this time around (only a week) in I'm really not enjoying it. The game is no where near as fluid and can't perform remotely the things you used to be able to do, the worst part is the passing. I've played loads of games so far, and it's not just my players, me or my team. The opposition always suffer the same as I do, so many balls go astray or wildly inaccurate, beyond annoying. Was thinking today I'm going to try the PES demo and see how that is, as everyone's saying it's way better.
Randomly had an issue at the store where I bought Fifa, so went to sort it out today, long story short, they took Fifa back and I got a full refund. Figured that was a sign ;) as you can't return games after a week or so?
Anyway, had a quick couple of games on the PES demo and really enjoyed it, even having to completely learn all the new button layout etc. So much more fluid, passing is way better, and just feels like you can attack the opponents half with speed and a team. Much better runs being made, shooting seems decent and tackling is miles better.
WIll probably check out the full game over the weekend maybe. Which sucks, as Fifa is such a staple in the yearly gaming :D

Fifa, is far more polished though, in terms of looks and all the frills so to speak.
We'll see.
 
How do you all upload to YouTube? Can you do this directly from Xbox (Upload studio) now? Or do you still have to faff about.

Just get the youtube app from the Xbox store and login, then you can upload all your saved vids. I usually edit (crop) in the Studio first.
