Turns out, to my amazement, that "The journey" is just one season long.

I was hoping, after the first season I'd get to pick from a few transfer options and play in Europe, but that's not the case. You get to continue playing with Hunter in FUT... I'm wondering what's the point for choosing a favourite team at the beginning and then get to choose which team to sign for if you only get one season. You don't have a transfer session at any point afterwards. I picked West Ham as faves at the beginning, then signed for Sunderland, as it'd be easier to break out into the first team there.

Pretty half-baked story mode from EA, especially considering they're obviously going to milk us for a couple of years with it - you're finishing in EL places and gettcalled up for the English NT, but you can't continue playing? It was fun to play overall, Hunter is a likeable character, but training and post-match press conferences are pretty monotonous. I also noticed that in the journey, if you don't score, nobody does, not even the opposing team - matches end 0-0. Had like 10 draws with Aston Villa in the Championship. Also, it's almost impossible to score on WC in the beginning when you're rated like 60, got assists on a regular basis, but then changed the setting to Semi-Pro, so I actually enjoy it and bag goals.

Anyway, I'm starting to think a fair payment model for FIFA would be a monthly/yearly subscription, for whatever version comes out whenever. I'm noticing that EA doesn't update the gameplay after the release. You get changes with the next FIFA and a subscription model would fix that - they can update the game on the fly for everyone.

Haha trade Handa + 40 million for James. He makes more then all our other players combined. Then I went on the thread that thought he was a realistic target in the real world :)

Icardi is criminally under rated in this game!!! Fking Giovinco is better then him

Christ, the dribbling on the XBox One is so much looser than that on the PS3. I feel out of control whenever I move. The CPU is also much better at tackling on the XBox

Old generation versions use a really old engine. They're pretty much different games.

Finally got both the game and the controller. Hit me up on Origin if anyone wants to play.

Scoring a winning goal at the 89th minute. Pause and alt tab for a sec to check a notification = FIFA disconnects me and I lose the game cause of some bullshit anti-cheat measure. Fuck you EA.

Seriously? While the pk taking is frustrating the game play has improved a lot compared to old fifas!

The PKs take a while to learn but it's not that bad.

To be fair with how much players are missing these days you could say its more realistic.

Eh, I disagree, mainly because the new system makes it too easy to put kicks in spots that are almost physically impossible to save.

They are all possible to save. If they put it on the corners, you'll probably have to move your goalkeeper on that side first (left stick) before making the jump (right stick)

I absolutely hate the new penalties, but mainly the free Kicks and especially the corners. I'm down for change, but I found it really awkward and not fun at all.

Can you choose to revert this back to the old style in offline modes like career for example?.. I remember when they introduced the new controls a few years back you could choose to select the legendary controls instead.

Been playing since 4 days and I absolutely hate the new corner system. Other than that I find the game too slow, I'm coming from Fifa 14.

Add me on Origin vador02
