    Sorry for what might sound like a stupid question, but if we get it before official release, can we play it straight away, or have to wait until midnight ?

    There is an early access for Ronaldo and Icon editions anyway, so I guess it will work straight away, right?

    Mine worked away grand last year. US release is usually the Tuesday anyway so servers be up.

    Seems to be a part in the Alex Hunter story where you go to Brazil and play some five on five. Hopefully they work some way to do it multiplayer as well.

    For this year it's prob just an exclusive to get people to play the Hunter mode

    If it was a proper feature this year it surely would have been revealed by now since it's less than 3 weeks to release

    From some of the capture event footage looks like you can play an online singles match. Hope to god that's the ability to play an online game against a random opponent. Infuriating u haven't been able to do that last few years.

    liking it so far..it seems the players are a lot more realistic in their turning/dribbling etc and it seems a lot more fluid with no lag.
    Hopefully this is what the finished game is like.

    I like it, it feels much more natural and the crossing looks likeyou can cause trouble with them.

    Really Like the small changes to penalties been able adjust the run up speed and seems like you can aim better then power up.

    Any news on if that will carry forward to the ultimate team? I'd love them to not allow pausing games at all.

    It'd be a great idea. I don't go near online, mainly for that reason. Lads sitting in formation and subbing for as long as possible. I'd rather play the bloody training mode.

    Not even that it would cut out the guys pausing the game when they about to lose the ball or have a chance on goal hoping to catch the other person off guard I f9oking hate it.

    I love the idea of quick subs. I rarely sub but if a suggested player might better my game I'm all for it.
    Crossing feels great. I didn't score from a cross last night but they look much more realistic and all of my attempts could've easily caused a problem for my opponent. Really looking forward to the game this year.

    I'm disappointed by it overall.

    The quick subs is a nice addition and the AI play more like a human player........ but they haven't fixed any of the game play issues. All of those "that's bullsh*t" (EAids, according to reddit) moments are still present where seemingly random things will happen to totally shaft someone. The refs still make really bad decisions.

    The 90 degree body feint seems a bit better but not as OP as it was back in FIFA15. The Cruyff turns seems slower, as do fake shots after skill dribbling. Four star skillers will be more important than ever in FUT especially against the better players.

    I'll still buy it and play an absolute load of FUT, but I think that PES is catching up.

    I hope there's an option to turn HDR off in the full game. My picture is completely washed out. Looks better with HDR enabled on the tv but I like to play in game mode due to the reduced input lag.

    Anyone else tried it on PC ? For some reason (and I checked all my settings which are fine) the gameplay is extremely slow, almost like you're playing against someone who's on a 56k modem...

    Weird thing is, with cutscenes like celebrations etc. it runs smooth.

    That aside, it looks nice, the quick sub thing is great but not sure if the upgrade is worth it right now. I'll see how FUT works out.

    I've noticed this too. The colors look a bit washed out for me on the demo. It wasn't like that for me on FIFA 17 (or any previous versions).
