Messi on the cover or bust.

It's a split cover with Hames, Hazard, Martial and Reus. At least the video on Reus' facebook shows that.

 

[Matty8787]

If 1080/60 then will be X1 otherwise I'll go for PC.

 

[crack-king]

I've already talked about the switch to Frostbite at Gamescom

(at 5:30 )

Finally a new engine and hopefully a step up!

 

[WaterAstro]

Looks like the same models...

YES!
I'll take Hazard on the Canadian cover.

 

[Ivan]

Something new, finally. Can't wait.

 

[BigTnaples]

Damn. I have been waiting for a real graphics leap in sports titles.


Not a huge Futbol fan, but a lot of my mates are so I have been wanting to get into it. Good time to start seems like.


Any word on Madden using frostbite? Because that would get me excited.

 

[justsomeguy]

Yes.

Does that mean 720p on my xbox? Sigh.

 

[Rellik]

With last seasons shirts?

 

[Pachimari]

Not this year.

 

[Brinbe]

Hopefully the gameplay has improved and it's not all UT.

 

[BigTnaples]

Not this year.

But there are plans to switch in the future?

 

[Twentieth]

Price doubled in my country compared to FIFA 16.

I'll have to skip this one.

 

[ngower]

Redboxing this before I buy. Sick of the elastic AI.

[Jakartalado]

After Battlefront.... EA has my attention with Frostbite.

Dice is just amazing in the tech departament.

 

[Deadpool_X]

Can't wait for this year's batch of "accidental" homoerotic glitches.

 

[v1lla21]

I skipped 16 so definitely picking up this year's game. Time to go broke with UT again.

 

[Pif]

If 1080/60 then will be X1 otherwise I'll go for PC.

I think we won't even ge that on PS4.

 

[Hasney]

New physcics... Hopefully they're still there though.

 

[crash-14]

Well. I haven't been in sports games since Fifa 2013. The next gen jump pretty much kill it for me since they didn't fix ANY of the issues the game had despite using that new Ingnite engine or whatever it's call.

Since they're using Frosbite, they have my attention. If it's still the same shit, I'll stop caring forever about Football games.

The Ignite engine wasn't even new, it was all marketing bullshit. At least we know Frostbite is an actual engine.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I dont give a fuck anymore, show me whats new outside Utimate Team.

 

[Mase Gumble]

Fair fucks if they've actually upgraded the graphics engine this time. I'll kind of miss those few zombie player faces (pretty sure Pirlo at least was still keeping it real )still left over from FIFA 07 or whatever the first one on 360 was though. Still needs a big gameplay upheaval though.

 

[Milchmonster]

With last seasons shirts?

It's the new BVB shirt.

Which is all that matters.

 

[Lashley]

"We're introducing gale force winds this year"

 

[dragn]

WAT? GRAPHIC UPDATE? YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS

Spoiler

pls be 60 fps/1080 on the normal ps4

 

[Kölsch Bloot]

But will my beauty of a living room be in it?

 

[The Lone Courier]

According to Op Sports it will be Madden 18.

Bunch of plebs on that cover, except Reus.

 

[BigTnaples]

Nice. Thanks. Pumped for that transition.

 

[dragn]

hope we get tons of new facescans, i want dembele and all of my bvb updated and not play with scans from 2012.
aubameyang needs the batman hair even if he leaves us :<

 

[shandy706]

My captures seem to have a different look to them color wise next to the OP..lol, ...same youtube vid.

MINE

OP's has a greenish brown tint, maybe it's just the timing of the shot.

Anyway, looking forward to the new FIFA, I need to pick up '16 for my daughter now that it's down in price.

 

[The Strokes]

New engine. Excited for it.

Now, EA, announce Fifa Street for this gen. It's been 4 years already ffs.

 

[iNvid02]

want to be excited but they did fuck PC over with ignite before so we'll see

 

[Hasney]

Go back in time and make 3 sell decent numbers first.

 

[dragn]

is there a gaf club too?

 

[lensoftruth]

More annoying incidental shit

 

[NHale]

First time with a complete new engine could end up being problematic considering previously engine transitions. Much needed change considering how PES was again making huge strides gameplay wise vs. FIFA.

With Mourinho on board I hope they completely revamped the stale career mode. Or they just added a press conference CGI where we get to tell Wenger he's a failure.

The look of a man after seeing how many goals and assists he did in 2015/2016.

 

[NHale]

nvm

 

[Pachimari]

Isn't that Mourinho's in-game character we see?

I used to have inside look with EA from my country, been able to play some builds before launch and have talks with the dev team.

You're basically saying they lied to my face?

It was an upgrade to the old sports engine, it wasn't all new like this would be. A lot of the hooks that were in there were just the exact same thing as previous games, they just changed graphical things more than anything. It's like the WWE games and that "hole new engine"... Nom you just upgraded some parts to make it look prettier but the actual engine that governs how the game plays and feels remains unchanged by their feature addition of the year.

Frostbite handles more than just how a game looks as it's the whole package. This is the first significant change in years as it's doubtful a lot of the existing work could be ported over easily. My bet is that they've been working on this for at least a couple of years while they had 15 and 16 tread water in terms of anything significant.

I was kidding. Since the moment I touched Fifa 14 next gen I knew what was going on. That why I stopped playing the game (I was a sponsored competitive player).

 

[Lillie]

it doesn't even look like it says, "MARTIAL" on the back of his kit

 

[jaaz]

Just fix the damn offsides calls please.

 

[stargateheaven]

They need to add diving into the game.
It is a huge part of football.

that's already in the game is it not? or is that pes?

there should also be a button to fake an injury after falling.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Everything was Frostbite, and I'm loving it!

Kojima better be stealing that engine for himself.

 

[Oh God Why]

A moment of silence for the Ignite Engine, please.

Also, LOL
