FIFA 14 on PC is very similar to FIFA 14 on PS4. Main graphics differences are in close ups (no gameplay) where console versions change framerate (to 30 fps), draw grass and improve lighting and models. While you're playing, graphics are pretty identical.

Downloading PC demo right now...disgonnbegood.gif
but i find that my AI team mates never make the runs for it. fucking never.
it only worked reasonably well for me on manual with a very light tap - and not enough to allow the attacker to escape the defender.
i'm just surprised that's all because experiences can be that different. i might have a look for some footage of it on youtube, because i'm genuinely interested in finding out wtf i'm missing in my game. this game clearly isn't about being fair.
otherwise it wouldn't lie about me being offside.

Can't change controls on PC...so no idea
Yep. I played 4 games and it all felt very fluid. No players stumbling around in janky canned animations when your trying to pass the ball etc.
I played 14 a shit ton so I must have liked it deep down, but it frustrated the life out of me every game. Very excited for 15 now.

Some of these face states when you score...
fucking hell
holy crap that's hilarious
excellent. exactly how i feel. my mates give me such a hard time for complaining and then completing a season in a couple of days....
they can't seem to fathom that you can like and hate something at the same time. exactly the reason why i don't understand the whole PES/fifa argument. they've both proven themselves to be massively inept in a wide variety of areas.
good to hear at least some progress is being made. no doubt after playing this one shit loads you'll find other frustrating things, but it sounds like a good start.
Where did you hear that?
Loving the demo so far on Xbox One. The gameplay changes feel great and a little more realistic than last year.
Also, i've been checking out what's been going on with the PC demo and modding to see what they'll be able to do with the game. Looks like things like textures are similar, just higher res. Stadiums can be exported using existing tools, etc. Can't wait to see where they go from here.

Well it runs at over 200 FPS at 1440p on a 2GB GTX 770.

I wonder if anyone will figure out how to get the 3D grass during regular gameplay on PC 
I have to stay the replays look stunning on that department.

Apparently a Time Extender for the PC demo is unsurprisingly already in the works

hmm, I actually think the grass looks really weird in the close ups.

Well that was weird: When I change the game speed from normal to slow it plays very similar to FIFA14. Is that intentional?
The really fast movement speed is giving me problems right now due to the slower (even in FUT) speed of FIFA 14. Only did 3 games so far, so not going to judge any details so far.

Anyone managed to get this going decently at 120hz or 144hz? stutters like shit and tearing everywhere the minute you untick 'stay at 60hz' I find..
Using 780m here
Can play at 4k/60 fps with little to no drops it's amazing. Except when the game zooms in then I drop to 20's even at 1080p/low settings. I'm downloading the game again to make sure this is not a download issue. If it's not, I'm very happy with the performance

Bit of a joke the game runs as well as it does yet they can't do replays above 30fps.
Keepers aren't very good. Rounded the keeper 4 times now, and scored with Henderson from a ridiculous angle. Powered it into the roof of the net.
edit: this might just be Joe Hart

Yeah it seems like Origin overlay kills the game. Weird.

Replays at half time and end of the game don't seem to be at 30 fps to me, only ingame, it's weird.

Yeah that shit looks terrible, I don't have much faith in them fixing it though, it did the same thing with the goal nets on fifa 14 on pc. It's just bad field of view I think? Reminds me of Gran Turismo 4 lol

I tried this but the game still crashes right after it starts to load. wtf EA?? I want to compare this to the bone version

Hmm does it always appear as weird to you? Now that I played around with manual replays I did see a few camera angles that made the grass look odd but most of the time it seems fine to me. Might be just a personal perception thing.
Well from my observation having MSI Afterburner monitoring the FPS (it's a DX11 game so sadly no GeDoSaTo
) even bringing up the pause menu or a in-game replay drops the game to 30fps. The actual controlled gameplay stays at 60fps for me, everything else does not.Do you have Windows Media Player installed?

This is my first FIFA and I'm really enjoying the demo so far. I'm new to the sport (thanks to the recent WC) and looking forward to learning more about the leagues and teams.

When you shoot and it kicks up grass and dirt it looks terrible
Game is pretty good though. Liking it so far, still can't defend at all.

Looks like pace abusing will be back though. I wish the gameplay was slower like in 14.

No Demo for the PS4? It's already available for the PS3...
I have been playing fifa14 for a while now I got 1400-400-400 record on ultimate team and around 60-10-10 on normal online seasons, when I played 3 games on this demo won all of them, sure I was not as good as I am on Fifa 14 but the ball is alot harder to get a hold of, but the subject AI rubberbanding doesn't exist if you are not bad, on my 3 games I won with the following scores: 1-0, 2-0, and my last game 3-0, as you can see, I didn't concede any goals.
no gold here,so i have to wait one week
Hmm. I didn't even remember that you needed gold for demo downloads the first week. Is that still a thing on Xbox One? Because I don't have gold, haven't had for a year, but this morning I just downloaded the FIFA 15 demo without issues.

Like when there's a little cinematic before a corner or a penalty the individual strands of grass look too big, something just looks off and makes it look weird. For replays of goals it looks ok though.

It's an improvement, never said otherwise. But as I said in my last post during corner/penalty cinematics it looks a little weird, like the strands were too big.

After playing the demo I'm pretty optimistic. Absolutely fucking hate fifa14, and you can almost think fifa15 is the same when you first play it. But it's not. Need to play more but so far I'm liking it. Runs fantastic as well on a very modest quad core apu (3,2 ghz) and a hd7770. Runs well over 100 fps (locked to 60 now) at 1080p. So good news for people on the lower end side.
