10. Pass With Purpose
FIFA 16 has a slightly slower pace than its previous release and the passing has become more advanced. The new 'pass with purpose' feature means that you can adjust the amount of power on your passes and specifically target areas that on older additions you wouldn't have been able to find. This year, you're under a lot more pressure from the opposition midfield and it's important to find the right angles and be patient when locating your direct passes or through balls. The new passing features mean that you have a better chance of finding that killer ball and is an improvement on earlier versions of the game where 75% of the time the attack would break down at this point. By pressing RB+A for Xbox, R1 + X for PlayStation whenever you make a pass, the ball will zip across the pitch at a rapid pace. By using this modifier, pro players will be able to squeeze the ball through the tightest of gaps and through to their striker, cutting the defence to pieces. Be warned though, unless the player you're passing to has exceptional control (i.e Messi or Ronaldo) he could struggle to trap the ball and need to take an extra touch.
