    Where are the fouls? Where is the presentation?

    Granted, I've only played two games so far, but I haven't seen one foul. Playing on World Class with 9 minute halves...

    Also, what happened to the Premier League presentation package? It's gone back to the default, boring graphics.

    I'm loving the frostbite engine, the game looks amazing, but I think overall it's taken a step or two backwards this year.

    I agree. I was playing the 10 hr Origin access trial and I didn't see a single foul called in the few games I played. This is the first time in about 5 yrs where I didn't buy fifa on day one

      We need more sliders like NHL got.

        Yeah this is puzzling.

        I played 4 matches last night, 1 in FUT and 3 kickoff.

        I only had 1 foul and that was in the first 9 minutes of the FUT tourney match.

        I see fouls happening but they are not being called.

        I think there are a lot of things in this game that are close to working. It's the most unfinished FIFA I have played in awhile, but because things are close if EA can just take a month or 2 and tighten up all these loose pieces with a patch the game could be really good.

          That's weird. I've only played three games and I've seen two yellow cards, one resulting in a penalty kick.

            Seems random as I've played about 10 games and I've seen quite a few fouls. I've actually gotten two PKs off of two red cards from the other team.

              The only fouls I'm seeing are the ones from my side. I'm seeing some tackles by the CPU that looks like they SHOULD have been called. NO yellow cards by the CPU called so far but I haven't played that many games. Kinda reminds me of PES 2016.

                As always it depends on play style and the strictness of the ref.

                  I played Man U vs Barca (CPU) on WC and Barca had 2 red cards.

                    Only played journey and pro clubs so far.

                    In journey I drew 3 pks in 1 game.

                    It's always feast or famine, either I get the ref that calls everything or he calls nothing

                      On Pro there is seemingly way more fouls, on World Class there is none, again seemingly. EA needs to flush out their slider system for FIFA. How is there not a fouls slider?

                        The fouls the AI commits and doesn't get called for is driving me crazy.

                          I feel like neither of those things have mattered all that much for as long as I've been playing the franchise. Fouls were there from FIFA 08-11, then the collision engine in 12 pretty much killed them off until next-gen 14. It was so bad in 13 that they had refs give yellow cards to the CPU for moving the wall on free kicks, just so there would be a card given once every 10 matches lol.

                            It's true. I've played games where I've had 15 plus fouls and multiple cards. I've played games this year where I had 3-4 total fouls and it was the same last year.

                            It depends on play style. It depends on the ref strictness and it depends on the sliders u use. I'm happy with the number of fouls I'm getting. I've identified the refs that call more fouls and I use them exclusively in my league.

                              Last Gen...But do people who say there's no fouls use the "Knock on"? As in, you pass to a player and just as the CPU player closes down on you, you flick the ball away to draw the foul or get away. The knock on works so much better in 17, the CPU doesn't read them so easily as on past FIFAs.

                              They still get away with more shoulder barges than you though, but FIFA has always use unbalanced fouls to increase the difficultly. I only started playing the series as 10 came with my 360 and one of the first things I noticed was how much longer "the ref plays advantage" lasted for the CPU. It's kind of broken on 17 now, great advantages get called back, even for the CPU. Typical EA, fix one thing but break another.
