LOL. They actually tell you the name of the scorer this year underneath the game score.

Heh. He's not actually IN those places at the same time.

Tyler will say something like "We go over to Alan McInally, with an update from Anfield."

The update is from Anfield, but it can be assumed that McInally is in a studio somewhere, watching all the games

I've downloaded it from the PSN store after it preloaded (worked seemlessly) and I love this game. It's way better than last year on next gen. Looks really great as well. Fifa did their thing.

I thought about it that way too. Lol.

Is anyone else getting a huge amount of lag? Had to mutual quit two games just now, was really lagging. Even the menus were lagging. I'm on PS4

Haha!

Anybody else having trouble scoring from outside the box? Only scored one goal from outside the box yet in like 10 matches... With Giroud of all people. I'm a full manual player by the way.

15 is a lot of fun if you like highlight-reel football and near-constant end-to-end action, but the AI and the defending are big issues for me, and though visually 15 is more realistic, gameplay seems to have regressed in the realism department.

The backline defensive AI - one of, if not the, biggest issues in 14 - has been improved, but it's still really, really easy to create breakaways, and one-on-ones with the keeper (I'm playing on World Class atm). This is only exacerbated by the improvements to dribbling - playing with Dortmund and Kagawa is ripping people to shreds like he's Messi.

Then the entire defensive system is a mess, and yet the funny thing is it's not all that hard to defend against the CPU because a) the CPU attacking AI still makes bone-headed decisions and b) EA have added a massive amount of error to CPU shot accuracy. So while one-on-one defending is worse than in 14, it's actually easier to keep clean sheets than before.

I'm also really not a fan of these super-skinny player models, while the lack of effort that went into CM this year is a big letdown.

Maybe tomorrow will be different for me but today's experience has not left a good taste in my mouth with FIFA 15.

Fun factor is off the charts to me.....game is great. I'm sure sliders will fix your issues and while I think eventually I will tighten it up I'm having a great time with it right out of the box.
