For a beta version, it's a very promising start by FIFA 16. Its new features are welcome additions, EA has set about fixing past issues, and the game feels a lot more balanced than in previous game. Unfortunately, one of the main problems is that player movements can feel clunky at times. Obviously you can't expect players to pull off full-speed U-turns on the pitch, but sometimes their movements feel a little laboured. That being said, I must stress again that this is the beta version, and every new FIFA comes with a settling-in period as users adjust to the new style. Slowing the tempo and boosting the midfield battles will naturally result in a more steady game, and maybe that will take a little while longer to click. But don't let that put you off. EA have done a very solid job on FIFA 16, and with a bit more polish, it could be a fine addition to the series. Have you played the FIFA 16 Beta? What are your thoughts? Or if you haven't what would you like to see from the new game? Let us know in the comment section below.
