Is the story mode the only career mode, or can I still make a character without it?

Normal career mode for both player/manager is still in.

the normal career mode is still there. don't expect any improvements though - it's all about ultimate team nowadays sadly.

We should play a friendly on PS4. Osmanlispor vs. Brøndby.

I'm an Xbox kinda guy i'm afraid

I'm really curious how FIFA 17 looks on PC.

Most likely the same as last year tbh.

Menus are still shit, training is still shit, transfers are still shit, match simulations are still shit. It's still shit.

Then again, the menus are horrific for the whole game. Who designs them?!

 

[BigEmil]

Even with finally a new engine change. Expect not much difference and the sequels now on changes will be even more minute and minor.

I said improvements. Adding objectives and basic finances aren't really improvements...

 

[KingSnake]

Is there any change in the player career match ratings or I still end up with a 6.9 despite scoring 2 goals and making 1 assist because I didn't run back faster in defence in the 90th minute even though there was no imminent threat to the goal?

 

[Hellgardia]

I still hope the engine change brings some improvements to the game. Will try the demo on the PS4 when it launches

 

[xVodevil]

I want this to be good, though I don't have high hopes...

I played 2 games at Gamescom. From what I got, it's basically good old FIFA, without most of the known annoyances and an actually fresh feel due to the improved animations/physics.

If this is true I think I'll be very happy with it.

 

[vaderise]

Is there any news for when Ps4 demo hits up the store?

 

[OfTheOverflow]

Isn't it just soccer

 

[Hakkelus]

I read somewhere all the demos come 5 pm. GMT. So, that's 4 hours from now.

3 hours from now. It's almost 2, pal.

GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER! YOU'RE LATE!

can you specify where this "somewhere" is?

 

[Krakatoa]

does it have HDR support?

 

[etta]

Ain't up on Xbox.

 

[Collateral22]

Arsenal will win the league before this demo drops

 

[v1lla21]

Will give a try once I finish my paper. Didn't pick up fifa 16 so hopefully it feels fresh compared to 15. I want to see how good frostbite is in fifers

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Demo's not been cancelled m8.

 

[lazerfox]

Haven't bought a new FIFA since 14 so I'm actually really excited for this. Can't wait to play the Forza Demo and then some FIFA.
Demos are great!

See, if this is what we'll be getting, then I'll be satisfied.

[PLASTICA-MAN]

So is it up for PS4 or not yet? I can't check the webstore since it's still down.

Web store is fine for me, but the demo still isn't up in the UK.

No, it's football.

What's up with this UNavailability?UK here.

 

[Nintenleo]

This it the year of Juve, glad they put the team in the demo. Can't wait to unleash Higuain-Dybala.

 

[--R]

I'm pretty excited for the demo. I haven't played a FIFA game seriously since... I don't know, 2009?

 

[Lashley]

out on PC yet?

 

[Genio88]

I'm a Juve supporter too, so glad they made this deal with EA, now all the players look great, also those stats, can't wait to play Seasons with them and build an Ultimate Team based on Juve best players

PS: About the demo, i'm on Xbox One, so not big deal to change region in order to get the demo earlier, do you know if it's out somewhere? also are you updating this thread based on all the Xbox One Stores or just on the USA one?

 

[Anastasis]

I bought 16 cheap to get the Best Buy deal on 17 this week (trade in 16, get $15 gift card plus $10 coupon toward 17). I hope I like it! Haven't played any sports game seriously for ages.

thanks,no idea how reliable it is,but i have updated the firt post anyway since the ecxpected times are obviously rong at this point..at least for XBone

 

[volgihn]

I played the beta. I hope they made changes to shielding the ball and passing. passing was waaaaay too precise and I can already tell you shielding will be abused this year if no changes were made.

well considering that online the usual is just to ram against someone full force,i wouldn't mind the shielding being a bit OP ,forcing to focus more on containment and cutting the line of pass instead of just going full speed at pressing,making everything faster than light

 

[Lashley]

I just hope they've fixed the AI, as I play primarily offline.

The amount of possession the AI got last year was insane

you may be pleasently surprised from what i heard

 

[Pachimari]

What I'm most worried about is the pacing honestly. It looks much faster than FIFA 16 which is already fast in itself.

 

[Metalmarc]

Rumour is 6pm uk


Eidt: its also in the OP for those that missed in 5pm gmt/6 bst

The problem is passing was ridiculous. I had 3 star teams in complete control of first touch passing without any faults. I played about 100+ or so games, the only people I lost to were those mastered shielding. If you thought playing against someone who went for nothing but possession and passed around the back in Division 1 then I can guarantee this is more annoying.

YAY

It's actually slower.
