Whoa! Was not expecting that! That was nearly a decade old bug!

Thank the good Lord! Now, I can edit all of the #1 goalkeeper's staminas so that they will actually start the majority of games during career mode and not have to look at bare arms.

Biggest thing I noticed is how much less "attached" to the players the ball is. Makes the gameplay feel more organic. In a Drop-In Pro Clubs match, this led to some pinball type sequences though, with the ball bouncing around the pitch like crazy.

Overall, its a really nice, sleek upgrade from 15.

Hilarious how excited this thread is about the winter gear bug being fixed. If QB is around I can imagine he is probably jumping for joy.

Special request. I will be grateful if anyone can look into this real quick. I will only buy this game if my friend Hector Ramos made it. He plays for a team called Al Qadisiyah of the Saudi league. Can ayone confirm if he's in the game and what his rating is? Thanks! I have ps4 - access hub of EA onlt available for xbox rifght?

Hate to break it to you guys. They definitely sped up all aspects of the game. The players feel less weighty, pass speeds have been increased, sprint speeds have been increased (feels like arcade football on the SLOW setting). I would rather play the demo than this sped up piece of garbage. I am OFFICIALLY DONE WITH FIFA 16. I am sick of this game before completing 1 hour of the EA Access. And yet I played the demo for hours upon hours.

What's the auto-finesse shooting issue you're referring to? Too accurate? Not enough power?

Just trying to understand.

In the demo, when you'd tap the shoot button for a quick snap shot from short to medium range (I don't think it happened long range, but not sure), instead of a shot with the laces you'd get the finesse shot animation - basically you'd be getting an R1 shot without holding down R1.

I've read some people speculating that it only happens with weak foot shooting and it's a new feature to better replicate preferred foot, but regardless it's the main reason people are saying shooting felt a little off in the demo code.

So I'm curious if it's the same in the final code.

This was how my first goal in Fifa 16 went down...

During postgame highlights, it shows that actually the ball didn't cross the goal line. By the way is the goal line technology implemented in fifa 16?

What I don't understand is on the Beta semi-pro cpu would get 3-4 shots on you. Pro played real balanced and seemed like a slightly less aggressive/cheaty/boosty FIFA 15 World Class mode.

So it was perfect.

The demo was close to the beta in terms of CPU skill levels but not as "good" of a challenge as the beta.

The full game is back to what appears to be FIFA 15 style difficulty. On pro the cpu is getting 1 or 2 shots on me at most. Semi-pro zero.

Why are they messing with the difficulty like this? Particularly regressing back to FIFA 15 AI.

I agree. I don't think it went in. I should have gone into replay mode and examined it.

No GLT for that goal. I think it only happened in the Prem for FIFA 15. Might be the same way for 16.

Completely agree. The AI also feels much dumber in the retail version. Much easier to play against on World Class. Demo is much better.


Basically, EA has made all aspects of this game worse.

I am amused, for lack of a better word--at the (extreme) varying of opinions with regard to how 16 is playing.

You are correct, EA Access is XBOX only.
I am, like you, on PS4 and can not check on your friend being in the game.

We have one-half saying the game is the same as the demo, and the other half saying this is a glorified fifa 15. LOL, I guess us ps4 folks will have to wait till Tuesday.
