FIFA 15 News & Discussion Thread

Gotta love that Benny Hill music.:LOL: I think it's just the Youtube video that makes the running look faster than it really is.

I'm not sure, mate. Look's the defenders running :D
They just boost the animations to fit the feet? Or recreate tiny steps ? I don't know , but looks f*cking hilarious :D
 
Personally I rekon it looks great, Iv noticed that individuality is more obvious, the ball is more loose, the shooting seems heavier and the pace has slowed down abit, to me they are big positives, an area which I found a negative in 14 was that nearly everyone accelerated the same, I'm hoping there's a difference for this years game, the guys playing this game seem to have there tactics on all out attack and constantly playing direct football, I'm sure you will be able to play slow possession football if need be. This year looks great so far for both titles.
 
Many god, what have they done with the GKs... it looks mess in this Borussia x LFC video...

-3:50sec the gk doesnt react at all
-6:50sec gk animation is totally off, he jumps to the wrong side but still slides to the right side??! WTF

not to mention the goal at 3:35 where the gk tackles the ball, but i guess that was user error.

ouch u right, but i guess there is nothing wrong with the 1st goal, why would u bring out the keeper after all? that glitch at the 7th minute is wow
 
this is FIFA's physics engine !!! :FAIL:
This footage is from old gen...but unfortunately this haven't changed yet..
i think Ignite is a joke..it just for some cosmetics presentation nothing more...i am disappointed with FIFA again...PES 2015 has done a good job with player models,individuality and realistic animations.

dude relax its a demo who knows what build they are showing, im sure it will be sorted out come release if its that obvious.
 
I cant stand all the useless players going to gamescom and E3 and play fifa like retards! Full speed pace, cheap through lofted ball, ping pong passing and no football creative at all! Please EA make slow/manual play default for fifa to end this joke once and for all!!! No more ping pong/speed/through ball abusers...
 
They could have added more but for me as a PC gamer, it's enough. Next-gen for the first time is gonna eclipse the lack of additions. Or I hope it does.

Besides, the changes they've made to the AI, transfers and growth sound promising plus the presentation features. I think there is something still to be announced by the way.

Yep, gutted that the core of CM will be exactly the same... If only PES would do full league structure....

PC version last year had mods/tweaks that fixed player retirements, too many transfers, unrealistic values etc. etc. so what's new this year? That your scouts suggest players to buy, big fucking do they'll still be lame suggestions of players I'm not interested in! Player search better at least let you search for the basics that you can use wiki for such as strong foot, height etc. etc. apparently in the CM world the manager is so thick he can't figure out without scouting how tall players are!
 
If your a PC user the upgrades there but for next gen console users it looks like a slight visual upgrade and tweaks to game modes.

Still lacks variety,drama and a sense anything could happen..last gasp winners,momentum shifts.

The same gameplays beccoming a little stale,as is the animation and inertia.Eas playing it safe but why wouldn't they it's selling by the bucketload every year...pes has bridged the visual gap and will always have the character and secret sauce.

Nothing I'm seeing in the gameplay that's any different then the last 3 iterations and the core of 07.

Again no fatigue coming into play,quick turns speeds with no loss of momentum..they could make great game if they focused more on slowing things up and not pandering to players that won't retain the ball better and create openings by working the ball.

That's somewhat contrary from the reports of the new CPU AI:

http://news.futhead.com/posts/fifa-15/29150-fifa-15-career-mode-impressions

The first being an away tie in the Champions League (I added Man Utd back in, and what?) where in my final group game I faced Standard Liege. I’d already qualified, but they needed a win to be in with a shot at qualification.

When the 63rd minute came around the commentary team mentioned the need for a Liege win and also directly discussed a change in their attacking focus. From this point onwards Liege essentially switched to a 4-2-4 formation, for which they added relevant subs to complement. But crucially they also switched their play style, adopting a much more direct approach where they regularly launched long balls from deep in to my 18 yard area.

Now this of course made me change up my tactics to try and hold them off and even though they continually pressed I managed to hold on for a 0-0 draw, and they were sadly eliminated. It was scrappy, messy, head tennis at times but it was different, and thus refreshing compared to the AI norms we've become so accustomed to over the last few years. I also saw it working in reverse too.

In a home fixture against Liverpool no less where they took an early 1-0 lead thanks to a tidy finish from Daniel Strurridge. But the pivotal moment this time came just after half time when Jordan Henderson was sent off for an awful tackle on Tony Valencia. After he’d received his marching orders Liverpool changed immediately, and after taking Lambert off for Lucas they essentially setup two banks of four and left Sturridge up top alone. They parked the bus.

Probably most impressive was their complete an utter lack of ambition going forwards and after their change (again noted by the commentary team) the match fell in to a consistent pattern of my center backs picking up loose clearances on the half way line, where I then built up continual pressure. In the 86th minute I made my break through, but Liverpool were incredibly tough to break down and I again had to alter my personnel and tactics to turn the tide.

Not every game played out this though, some just had FIFA’s normal match flow but when these instances did happen, they really stood out which was great to see. To get through ¾ of my season I had to sim quite a few games, so whether even the two scenarios I’ve described become repetitive themselves, remains to be seen. But versus nothing at all, it represents a marked improvement on FIFA 14's AI and hope at last for CM fans everywhere.

Placebo

Still has the same match flow...I'm a big advocate of how ea have raised the bar over the years and as a manual player it is possible to play my brand if football.

However,the guys that make FIFA won't and aren't allowed to make the game that the purists want..it always panders to its biggest user base.

Beyond the match day presentation,physics,animation and visceral qualities is there anything that has made FIFA stand out on the gameplay front...it still is football by numbers.

For me this isn't a FIFA tear down I've had many hours of enjoyment on both the xboxone and 360 in the years prior to fifa14.

I'm not seeing anything that's really changed,it's the same gameplay that rewards a simplistic style of play.

At 0:37 in the Liverpool v Dortmund vid you can see the silhouette heads are still there :(

Just show their in-game face instead! At least it's something you can recognise...
 
It's a video game representation of football.

Games are NEVER going to re-create EVERY detail as individual as playing for real or watching an actual game.

I am amazed as to what some of the people in here are expecting from FIFA 15.

I'm all for constructive criticism but shouldn't we wait until we can at least actually play it?

We've never had it so good when it comes to technology in games.

Fully agree with you. It's quite embarrassing reading some people's comments tbh. In fact, I think they are complete idiots and need to take a good long hard look in the mirror and have a word with themselves. It's a game FFS! There's constructive stuff and then there's absolute nitpicking crap. The latter is pathetic.
 
EA's got the PC market in the bag. Konami did an EA. PES 2015 PC won't be next gen.

Talk about irony.

It's a pretty accurate representation of the majority of people that play online.

Yeah i know what you mean, but i zoomed in on a reply and noticed Rooney had lost a back stud in his boots in the first half and when he came back out in the 2nd half it was still missing, that's not realistic surely they would have put a new stud to replace it. Not realistic at all. This is what i hate about football games.:P

That pretty much sums it up.
But I'm more concerned about FIFA 15 still: new visuals, new keeper reactions, new and even more deep licenses won't do anything if the "LB+Y to Ronaldo > RT RT RT RT RT RT > shoot > GOAL" is still the most rewarded style of play.

on pc u can get patches with minifaces for every players mate:SMUG:

Yeah I downloaded a faces patch for last years game which did help, but if you play career mode then you get a lot of randomly generated young players coming through with no faces.

As the years pass in career mode it becomes more obvious. I never found a way to patch those.
