FIFA 16 Features and Official E3 Gameplay Trailer - PS4, Xbox One, PC

[dubcity]

I feel like they've been selling us the same game-play advances for the past 3-4 years, but they just change the wording around to make it seem new.

Controlling the midfield, defending as a unit, clinical finishing ... same game-play, new buzzwordy description. I guess we can only hope that 16 is more like 14 in terms of realistic defensive shape and formations, because that went out the window last year.

Kind of a bummer that they aren't even bothering to pay lip service to improved tactics or teams playing like they do in real life.

I really think that's going to come at a later date. They wanted to push the gameplay stuff and the Pelé trailer and then go from there. Remember, at E3, there are very few sports game fans in the mainstream press that goes to this thing. Alot of people know who Pelé is, very few people would know in FIFA 15 that team variance was below average.

So how are you going to get any attention? With that trailer and those "buzzwords". E3 became a show that gave me a glimpse of what the year's sports games will look like and not much beyond that long ago.

I'll say ONE good thing about what we have seen so far. Harry Kane has a real face!

#glasshalffull lol.

Yesterday wasn't ground breaking by any means, but from what (little) has been released, it sounds as if they're attempting to fix some things we want fixed.

I eagerly anticipate more information in the coming weeks--and will hold judgement until I get a chance to sample the gameplay myself.

Another tremendously positive article focusing solely on hands-on gameplay:

There are a lot of issues I have with FIFA15 but those impressions sound pretty good if there are really focused on making the midfield play much more relevant, it has always been an issue with FIFA for me.

I can´t say I´m not excited as well with these infos, but I´m old enough to say also: I´ll believe it when I see it.
