FIFA 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions

Re: FIFA 16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions

The answer is Legacy Defending. See my post above.

Legacy defending is cheap. In real soccer, at least skilled soccer, 4 guys don't go after the ball carrier because it would leave three guys open and they would be found through simple one-touch passes.

FIFA needs to get rid of this.

Really!? We have to get to work on these tactics.

Hoping to nail down a few basic ones tonight. Might be tougher with a spreadsheet this year, as instructions for each position need to be listed.

But I have some plans, and I think it'll all go very well.

Anyone play offline.

I've only played 2 games, Benfica [me] vs Chelsea and Bilbao [me] vs Real Madrid and there were a total of ZERO shots from outside the box.

Anyone actually experience the CPU take shots from outside the box?

I've had Cazorla, Lampard, Hernanes (Inter), Ross Barkley, and a few others take them.

It seems like it's tied to either a long range shooting trait OR a certain rating threshold in shooting.

Haven't figured it out yet BUT I do agree with you that it's lacking overall.

Wish there was a slider for it. But the fact that you've seen it is good.

I havent played much, obviously only the 2 games, but if PES had the licensing and wasn't so 'hard' to pull off moves, FIFA would be forgotten.

That being said, I will put many more hours into FIFA and HOPEFULLY I eat my words lol

There's a team tactic for it actually but I THINK (not sure yet as it takes a lot of time to figure these things out) player traits override it.

I'm sure Krebstar and others in the Custom Team Tactics will get to the bottom of it.

Does anybody know when the first roster update is available?

Just started FIFA and I was surprised that some transfers havent been done (e.g. De Bruyne still at Wolfsburg).

It was every Friday for FIFA 15, I assume it will be again.

You have to lower the CPU shot error to a value somewhere between 20-30 to see the CPU take shots outside the box. Give it a try.

The CPU will still have plenty of shots that are off target and you'll see some shots outside the box.

He was on Man City last night, so they already did one. They'll probably release another on Friday.

I will be playing when I get home. On the demo the shots were coming from all over the place.

FIFA needs to get rid of this.

It's about making your cpu controlled teammates active and bringing them into the action when needed. With the regular defending, they just sit back and don't do enough, especially if you play off the ball. It needs to be used in moderation, and you can pay for over using it or using it at the incorrect time.

More options are better, as we are unique as individuals and have different thoughts on what may work best. No way they should get rid of any option, but I am on the other side of the coin in that I can't play with the regular defending as it isn't good enough.

I've seen tons of shots from outside or on the edge of the box. To me this is a much improved aspect of the game.

I didn't really play the demo, only the two games. So hopefully that's the case. It's encouraging at least

There is one available already, should have all the transfers done. I noticed Halilovic was at Sporting. If you already did the roster update then ignore this. I didn't look too much into the BPL
