    What happened to the the gradual pitch degrading feature?

    EA made a big deal last year about the gradual pitch degradation introduced with Fifa 15 and the fact that every slide and every pitch related action left a permanent effect on the turf, making the pitch degrade over the course of the game in exactly the right places. Personally I thought that was a great addition to the game, but somehow it has been omitted this year.
    Can anyone throw any light on this?

    It hasnt been omitted but maybe tuned down a bit?
    Not sure if it's more/less than in FIFA 15 but it's definitely still in the game. Just had a match yesterday where I used a sliding tackle in the middle of the pitch and it was visible till the end of the match.

      Field degradation is still in there. I see it every game. What exactly are you talking about? Have you played FIFA 16 or are you looking at videos.
      When the game is on the line, winners want the ball.

        Its an option in the options menu now. You can choose none, light, heavy and default.

          be aware that there are at least 2 fields that have artificial turf, if you are playing on the Century link field(seatle seahawks/sounders field) there will not be field degredation as it is not real grass.

          other than that it is there but it isn't as pronounced as it was last year and the 2nd half seems to have an "auto-degrade" built in that just looks more worn but not retaining the same slide marks. the scuffs and slide marks will stay for an entire half though.

          I think you are talking about the actual pitch condition, like playing on a pitch that looks like it is from the 2nd league of Spain or England in mid-December where the keeper's box looks worn out as does the center circle.
