FIFA 17 News & Discussion Thread

Anyone else feeling the button lag/delay? Its almost gamebreaking for me. Even in full control it takes an extra 1.5s to get the pass off.
 
The button lag is atrocious.

A very pretty looking game, but you can see (and feel) that was the developers top priority.
 
Good video Matt. Thanks for putting it up. Nice and reassuring to hear your commentary on 17, especially about AI and positioning. I look forward to more on this.

BTW maybe that camera angle didn't help the corner ball trajectory look natural? Just a thought.

Great game! Hope they don't change anything for the retail version.

What is a 'threaded through ball pass' by the way? I saw that and the new driven low shot is one of the new features. I'm wondering how it's different from a normal through ball.
 
Has anyone else tried the demo on multiple systems?

I played the demo on the PS4 last night and the game is different to the PC demo, the PC has a slower game speed.
The PS4 version also has input lag I have not noticed as much as the PC version.

So I am starting to think the even the demos do not have the same build.

Yes I've been saying that earlier that the speed between PC and PS4 is not the same.
I noticed that on FIFA 16.
PC demo was slower and better to play than the PS4 one.
Haven't tried the PC demo this year yet, but I'm sure it's the same thing as last year.

If you can somehow make the game competitive to you on Professional via sliders + manual controllers you'll be in heaven, that is Fifa's AI at its best IMO.

So much this!
Never agreed with people that used to say that in FIFA every team plays the same and player ID doesn't come through at all.
Because for the whole last year I played professional only.
Those who claimed that must have played world class or legendary and I am sure that in those higher difficulty levels the game loses these things mentioned above.
As placebo said in his next post, professional and sliders is the way to go, I'm sure this year as well.
To me vanilla sliders and professional was enough as I played with a weak team.
 
Downloaded update on XOne. It seems like responsiveness is better now. Players reacting faster when you press buttons. Nothing else. Pace and AI seem to be unchanged. Tactic and personal instructions still working. I will play few more games today to be 110%.
 
Personal instructions work? And I don't think the slow build up tactics don't have much of an effect.
 
WAITING for the responsiveness update on PC and PS4. How more arent reporting the button delay is beyond me
 
The game runs like butter otherwise :) I must say: this game is pretty well optimized considering fifa 16 had major issues on my 950m i7 laptop. It actually has no lag once you fiddle with the vsync/lock fps to 60

*Update*

Played around 15 games after patch on Professional. I can confirm responsiveness has been changed. It's better now. Nothing else changed. I hope EA won't spoil this game in the final release or further patches.

Referees wearing spray but they are not using it during free-kick. I don't remember if they used it before or not.
