FIFA FUT PACK OPENINGS, BETTER THAN REAL LIFE according to Zotix,

Zotix posted:

Well, I don't know if EA releases the numbers but there are a poo poo ton of people buying packs. I just don't understand why when people admit to buying packs they get jumped on. There are millions of people sitting at bars right now just blowing money on alcohol. There is far less rewards for that than fifa packs. If people get entertainment out of what they get out of the packs then so be it.
More PRO CLUB details !!!

I spent 618 Euro = 706 US$ until yesterday. :shepspends: Last year I spent "only" ~30k points early and at least got Neymar 86, Hazard 88, Reus 86, Falcao 88, Götze 85 and Benzema 85.

I pulled 2 more informs today, unfortunately not IF Ronaldo. Because IF Ronaldo is a streamer card it seems. All 5 Fifa streams I checked have IF Ronaldo unpacked. :ortiz:

At least I got three 83+ squads (BPL, Bundesliga, Serie A)

It's that time again. The demo is being released soon. Prepare your assholes.

Yeah you can do pre-season tournaments JUST LIKE IN REAL LIFE, which includes the ability to have unlimited subs. The prize purse from the tourney goes to your transfer market funds. There is also player training, using up to 5 players from your squad to work on skills/etc. If you're in player mode, you have up to 5 training sessions per week which will improve your player. They said they've adjusted the prices and made the market more realistic as well.

Not sure what they could really change about Pro Clubs. The gameplay will have changed, but outside of that? Maybe being able to "create" your virtual team mates, or buy players using coins from winning tournaments so you can have say messi on your side.

They could take a stab at actually doing the stuff they said they were gonna do with the mode when they originally created it, for one.

Your link didnt work but I found the article

"“Longer term I see the time when you have managers, an economy system whereby you might be able to buy or sell real human players online and have contracts with clubs, where playing FIFA becomes an alternate reality to the real world of football. The day will come where there are virtual equivalents of David Beckham or Ronaldinho, from different parts of the world, who are expert FIFA gamers and clubs are clamouring to recruit them to represent their side, just like the real world. Ultimately the ambition for studio is to have the best 11 English FIFA football players at each position playing against the best 11 American, German, and Italian FIFA football players at each position to actually stage a virtual world cup where you have the very best strikers, midfielders and defenders from around the world playing FIFA against each other to earn the right to be the world's best FIFA football team.” David Rutter"

That sounds hyper retarded, what people want when they play clubs is to play with people they know. Also imagine logging in and finding that because I think you're a twat Ive sold you to Soulex FC and now you're doomed to only ever play with him because you cant get out of your virtual contract.

I think the way FUT draft is set is to give you great players every time anyway.

I think pretty much every game on the beta my team had at least one of Bale-Ronaldo-Neymar-Suarez-Messi.

That sounds really awesome, actually.

Anyway, there's some other interesting ideas in that article about what they could maybe do with the mode, but I think the bottom line is it could use a shitload of improvements and changes, because the way things work currently is pretty lame. Everything from player progression to how matchmaking works to how the AI players behave is just really terrible.

I played a few seasons in manager mode with Sheffield United in 15 on the pc and it's alright but transfers and scouting sucks and for some reason all the big clubs plays with their kids even though i've won the premier league a couple of times so there might be a reputation thing like in FM?

You're always gonna get some really good players in FUT draft basically, although the one in the demo is only working from a database of 12 teams or however many are in the demo AFAIK so it's pretty limited.

Pro Clubs needs a casual practice mode so teams can mess around and try stuff out

For that matter, practice match mode needs to come back, sometimes you just want to play 11 v 4 and set up crazy goals

Id never name a club after myself you kidding me? It'd be something like "what are legs? FC" or "FC robot circumcision."

Also, you should be able to buy contracts out to prevent playing with me. Which I really only do drop ins when playing pro clubs anyway. That way they do the same bullshit Taff would do except I wouldn't have to hear his high pitched giggle for 90 minutes.

Nope. I'm done with the meltdowns, buy my games digitally, and largely give no fucks about this iteration of FIFA. Doesn't mean I won't buy it, but the Taken King comes out next week and that will have my priority.

I wasn't impressed with the beta and unless the demo/actual game plays 100% different, I doubt I'll get it.

They actually put more detail on Palacio's rat tail, that's a step up from Konami's Totti selfie celebration, I'll buy Fifa 16 for sure. Jokes aside, as a demo is decent and they added some cool poo poo like the spray for free kicks staying for some time on the grass and better power shots.

The demo is fine but it actually never matters because the final product is always pretty different. My only worry is I think they hosed with pace too much. I had Aubameyang and he was loving slow on the ball. Terry caught him from behind. Again actual FUT gameplay will probably be faster but all the players felt about the same speed which was annoying.

I tried the PES demo too and it was really bad. There was broken english and the menus looked looked awful. Robben looked like a cave troll and ran like he took a poo poo in his pants.

What I noticed with the pace issue is that in order to actually get the full benefit of the pacy players you have to knock the ball ahead for a full out sprint.


But I mean either way it's gonna be different again in the full version so who knows.

The knock ahead feature was in previous games. Ronaldo and Aubameyang sprint dribbling shouldn't get caught by Terry.
