Anybody getting extreme lagging and choppy play throughout the entire game??!! It's unplayable at this point for me. Any fixes for this?

Let me guess - you are on PS4 - we don't have that issue on Xbox One.


You need to disconnect you internet in the menu settings on PS4 I think...

Actually, I think you have to make sure you disable UPNP or whatever it's called.

Count me among those not liking the player models. Just way too pale looking. I know they scanned faces, but they need to work on skin color BIG TIME. Even the darker skinned players kinda look odd.


Aside from that, the game is awesome. I love the EA Ignite. The replay highlights from goals scored is just insane. Playing from broadcast camera angle is great. Feels like controlling a game on TV.

NBA 2k commentary does make Fifa's look ordinary, not trying to be-little fifa,or saying Fifa is bad... just NBA 2k commentary is outstanding!.

Exactly.

Slow your roll Gopher. FIFA commentary is good. But 2K is another animal all together.

That's what I'm hearing, and yes I'm on PS4. Thanks. Hopefully EA does a patch soon enough.

Picked this up today on my lunch break and now I'm reading there is no practice mode? Uh-oh. Hope I'm not returning this because I wanna delve into this years version.

Here's a great example of what's wrong with this year's game. It's a video depicting what I've been talking about with the terrible defending and added error to finishing to account for all the easy chances being created:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyrH_EiLAp0

I'm Dortmund against Spurs. This is on LEGENDARY difficulty, yet you'll see how unbelievably easy it was to create a counter-attack and easy scoring opportunity. This is just really bad defensive AI, plain and simple. I get no pleasure from how easy the attacking play can be in this FIFA, though it's pretty to watch.

Note not only how wide open my winger is (Błaszczykowski), but then how the CPU defender doesn't bother putting up any challenge whatsoever once I"m in the box. This you'd think should've ended in a goal, and I'll admit that the outcome of the shot is not beyond the realm of possibility, but this is indicative of this year's game: easy chances followed by fluffed shots.

I'd also like to point out that Adebayor is sent off in this match before half time with two yellows. In less than 24 hours of play I'm seeing way too many CPU players being sent off against me (not to mention the rarity of seeing a player IRL sent off for two yellows in the FIRST HALF).

I might have to get last year's NBA 2k game just to hear this commentary. Haha

Absolutely loving this year's game except one problem I've been having since yesterday. I can't get passed the 1st game of my manager mode. I can play the first friendly just fine but when I try to advance post game my screen freezes and dashboards me every time.

I already uninstalled and installed the game twice (Xbox One) but that hasn't helped and I haven't seen anyone else with this issue yet. Any help would be much appreciated!

Not trying to make light of your post but I think it's funny reading all of the impressions of what people are seeing.

In at least 20 games, most played on WC and a few on PRO, I have yet to have a CPU player sent off and have yet to have a game with more than 5 total fouls for both teams. I read a post the other day where someone said they had a game with 16 total fouls! IDK, maybe it's the Legendary difficulty, but I'm not seeing a big difference with fouls. I'm also using Orions sliders as he has them posted.

Looks like another year of absolutely terrible defensive AI, made even worse this year because dribbling is so overpowered.

Here's several videos showing how bad it is. This is me (Dortmund) against the CPU (Spurs) on LEGENDARY difficulty.

Watch how easy this counter-attack is. Also note how the Spurs CB makes NO challenge at all in the box before I shoot. And then of course I miss because EA have added so much shot error this year (which they've had to do because of the tons of easy chances being created).

Then there's this next one. Look at the space afforded me. This is on Legendary and yet the Spurs players make little effort to close me down. Then see how crazy easy the 1-2 pass is because TWO Spurs defenders just watch me zip by them. And then of course another wild miss with a top player not under pressure.

YouTube - FIFA 15 - Poor defensive AI

This one might be the worst. First look at the ACRES of space available to me in the middle of the pitch after the clearance. Then watch Kagawa - who let me say is Messi-like in this game - setup for an easy 1-2. Note that there are 5 - FIVE! - Spurs defenders in the vicinity and this simple play rips them apart. So simple, no skill involved on my part.

YouTube - FIFA 15 - Poor defensive AI 3

The AI in this game is so shockingly poor I am in absolute disbelief it was released in this state. It was really bad last year, but with the attacking side of the game getting even better, the game is even more open than ever.

I'm utterly shocked and disappointed - I take no real pleasure in such a simple, mindless depiction of football, where the spectacular is made routine, even if it's pretty to look at.

As a Spurs fan, I can confirm that this is not poor AI. Very real and authentic Spurs defending.

You using manual passing? I find this sort of pinpoint counter much harder to execute on all manual.
