Nice time of the year .

Can't wait. I'd even do that different psn region trick, but I'm not sure if it's out earlier like that this time.

 

[KainXVIII]

Cannot wait to see

Spoiler

no

difference from 2016 version!

 

[Coxy100]

getting this as part of my bundle with the Slim so looking forward to trying the demo to see what it's like

(own a X1 at the moment)

 

[Pachimari]

Yeah, and I am incredibly excited!

Oh yeah baby! This sounds good. A part of the Hunter story, AND Real Madrid is in there. LEWD!

Well they're running a new engine this year (frostbite), so you have atleast that as a change

Well, its something.

 

[Xater]

The Xbone demo is already late if those times are correct.

That change can't be seen, but at least I hope it can be felt.

 

[idonteven]

been waiting since yesterday because me like many others used the new zealand store to download like past years but it didnt happen

 

[RocknRola]

With custom files being back for PES (and easy to implement too, apparently) and the demo being super fun, Fifa will have to do a lot to impress me.

Kinda killed my "Fifa itch" with Fifa 15, on the PS4. So bad. So, so, so bad. Dunno what happened really. Presentation is cool, gameplay is still largely the same that brought them to success since 07/08, but the fun factor just wasn't there (for me). And I heavily dislike the extreme focus on FUT too, don't like it one bit. Dunno. Maybe I just sorta "grew out of it" per say.

Will happily try the demo though.

 

[Angel_DvA]

The FH3 demo has no HDR, is it the same for Fifa ?

 

[Majukun]

The Xbone demo is already late if those times are correct.

those were the expected ones until yesterday,but we didn't have any specific announcement in regard,so they are mostly estimations

 

[Pachimari]

Gonna play FIFA 16 while waiting. Anyone up for some friendly matches?

 

[Ivan]

Where did you get those times OP?

Edit: I see...

 

[leng jai]

Are they using Frostbite now?

 

[LNBL]

Are they using Frostbite now?

Yes

 

[VE3TRO]

Can't wait I really enjoyed my time with the beta. Frostbite is such a welcome.

Old kits were used and Messi has bleached hair now.

Are they using Frostbite now?

Only PC, Xbox One and PS4

 

[Gandie]

Any word on PC file size?

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

That change can't be seen, but at least I hope it can be felt.

From playing the beta, it definitely feels different from FIFA 16 but you wouldn't think it was a new engine if you didn't know already.

 

[RocknRola]

The eyes kinda make me feel like they lost their soul somewhere Though to be fair, even in games with much less super detailed characters (1 or 2 instead of 22) on screen, eyes are hard to nail.

 

[xviper]

no way i'm going to buy it, i already have a game that frustrate me to the point that i could break the controller, Overwatch

 

[blacklotus]

Youtubers that went to the capture event will start publshing videos in 7 minutes.

 

[RulkezX]

Hyyyype.

Fifa is pretty much my go to online game these days, can't wait to get stuckk into seasons again.

 

[kriskrosbbk]

I am refreshing the PS store like well well well

 

[Pachimari]

Yeah me neither. Season is what I primarily play, but I'll get into some of the other modes this time I think. It's the one game I can play daily.

I am refreshing the PS store like well well well

It's supposed to come out in 2-3 hours. Although, an estimate.

 

[ActWan]

Can't wait!

 

[pieface]

I just hope 2v2 seasons is still in FIFA, there's been no confirmation either way yet

 

[Ruruja]

Gamba Osaka is interesting. Is that a single team license thing or have Konami lost the rights to Japan National Team and J-League?

 

[Peterthumpa]

This definitely does not resemble character models from Frostbite-powered games.

Not sure if that's just me, but there's something about Frostbite characters and lighting that is extremely recognizable regardless of the game, more or less like we had a similar thing with UE3 games.

Fifa 17 is not one of these games, and that's not a compliment.

 

[V3rt1go]

I think EA Sports aquired the rights for all J-League Teams and some stadiums.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm looking forward to see what the overall rating of Asensio and Morata is. I want to start them in my team.

 

[GravyButt]

Can't wait to try

They probably tried to make it look identical to Fifa 16.

Morata 82
Asensio 81

 

[kriskrosbbk]

 

[dc89]

Do you need Gold to download demos on XBL?

 

[Dahaka]

They probably tried to make it look identical to Fifa 16.

so in other (less sweet) words: they didn't bother to do much better.

 

[Majukun]

Do you need Gold to download demos on XBL?

for what i heard (i don't have either) on 360,yes,on XBone,no

 

[Booki]

Cant wait.

 

[Pachimari]

They probably tried to make it look identical to Fifa 16.

But why would they.

Morata 82
Asensio 81

Thanks for this. This is alright.

 

[Majukun]

wait,no,my mistake

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Not gonna lie, kinda excited for the story mode, hope it's hilarious.

 

[pieface]

I'm very interested in finding out what rating Cheick Diabaté of Osmanlispor is, he was my favourite player on FIFA 15 and FIFA 16 when he played for Bordeaux.

Yeah, that's the type of FIFA I play, 5* FIFA is for newbs....
