Because of the positivity in this thread I've been trying to persevere with the PC demo, but it's not really clicking for me.
I'm getting little to no enjoyment out of the defensive side of the game. Your players crab around in such a sluggish way, making active defending close to impossible, and I constantly end up just camped on the edge of my penalty area, stumbling clumsily and desperately, while the CPU dances back and forth with the ball.
I really enjoyed tactical defending in FIFA 11 & 12. You could jockey with responsiveness and precision, and this allowed you to face-up dribblers, shepherd them away from goal, 'shade' their passing angles, or switch to another defender to anticipate/intersect passing lanes. Denying progress was an engaging challenge.
You can't do that in 15, I'm finding, because you physically cannot keep up with a dribbler. And if you switch to another defender, it takes so long to change direction to get him where you need him to be. A delay which rules out stepping into passing lanes.
The midfield is wide open too, meaning there's no tactical back-and-forth for midfield territory. Just everyone back to the 18 yard line to pray that the swarming opposition will make a mistake.
On one hand, this paralysis of pro-active defending means that the CPU gains a larger share of possession than tradition. But in every other aspect I find it just makes defending unpleasant and clumsy, not at all engaging or rewarding.
This was my first impression and unfortunately it's still holding true after 25+ demo matches, which is sucking out most of the fun for me.
That looks very fantastic, props to EA they have nailed the lighting. This is fucking beautifulI found it on twiter. Great pic
I've bought the EA access pass and gonna get my mates round tonight and use my 6 hours having a custom tournament which is back in!!!!
Ill post some impressions and maybe goals and other stuff later tonight or tomorrow.
Anyone pre order from the US PSN store? When does the preload start ?
Has anyone seen the goal line technology in the demo or early access?
Good that it doesn't happen all the time but I've never seen it at all.
Just noticed the PC version releases 22nd on the Mexican store. Will it be possible to play in the UK with VPN or something along those lines? I'm sure I remember doing something similar with last years PC version.
Can you check if custom league is back. If so, can we add only 3 teams?
Thanks.
Coopz mate, any news now?
Any tips on who I should be in career mode? Thinking either Bundesliga 2 or Championship.
Definitely going with a Russian League side for FUT.
On FIFA 14 I started in AFC Wimbledon and by 2018 I endedup at Arsenal. Thing is, the English football system is way above the rest as every team has equal chances to get heroically promoted and even enjoy success in European cups (In that same CM I took Burnley to UEL QF).Any tips on who I should be in career mode?

Has anyone noticed a change of game speed in the game, at one stage the game was slow and was perfect for me, but next time I loaded it up itwas quick and by changing it to slow it didn't affect it anyone else notice this?
On another note the animations in this are superb.
Got a couple of penalty's including shirt pulling which looked great (Walcott went down like a sack of shit which looked like he played for it ) and the collision detection on tackles and fouls look amazing so you can make some right meaty challenges.

Ive had it against me. Ill try to get it uploaded tomorrow.
Try it.If it lets you preload then it works.
I've witnessed that too..Hope it's just related with f..ing poor EA servers..
@Coopz from my experience with the demo, I find that turning analog sprint off helped me on defensive side.
Coopz, you are on XBox One ??
CPU Fouls are brilliant, won this penalty from the CPU pulling my shirt.

I was wondering the same.Should I stay at England or go for a different country?
If I stay,should I go with rovers again (to see how they changed from 14 to 15 & coz I like some players there) or an EPL side and the beauty of having your own stadium (leicester city may be ).
