Do you have any opinions on the game???


I picked it up for PC.
It plays a little different, i think most will find it a little harder to play. The oposition seem to be better at closing people down than 14.
I seem to be scoring a similar amount of goals as in 14 but it somehow seems like i've put alot more effort in to get them. Keepers seem to be much tougher from distance too, anything further than the 18 yard box generally needs to be hit using the left trigger to drill the shot with power. Then it needs to be something special.
Players can seem to me a little sluggish in reacting to controller inputs sometimes, i'm not sure if reactions have been slowed down for 15, it's just a difference going from PS3 - PC, or it needs fixing. But it might take some getting used to.
I've also had it crash on me a few times.
I still think career mode needs work, and single player career, mabee it's just me, never played this mode before but it seems unessesarily harsh scoring your game. You just find your score goes red and drops for being 'out of position' all too often. They give me a goal of getting 6 assits but punish me for going wide and trying to put crosses in???
If anyones got any advice on that i'll be happy to take it in, i may just drop it and go with normal career mode though.

Almost finished my first season of manager mode (Plymruff Argyle!)

Now, bearing in mind that the commentary is poor, lacking and quite often wrong, their is a distinct lack of overlays when people score/foul etc, there appears to be no way to save a replay and there are loads of times where it makes you watch fluff which it should let you skip............I am really finding it the best FIFA in years.

Plays really nice, has an amazing step-up in graphics and they finally fixed surround sound for the first time since FIFA 12 (7.1 sounding awesome!).


Now, if they can fix the items I mentioned it will be the perfect FIFA.

I must admit the scenes it shows you that you should be able to skip, and always have in the past (at least on PS3 version) is bugging me.

Once i got a handle on the new features (like individual instructions to players) I'm enjoying the way it's playing. I'll say it's the best Fifa when i can skip scenes of players being booked though ;-)
But there's no question that the look and feel of the game has come on quite a bit.

Well loaded it up for first time tonight and not impressed to say the least. WTF have EA done with multi monitor support? Only plays on 1 screen!!!

Open up your fifasetup.ini in User/Documents/Fifa15 folder and add the following for a EyeFinity/nvidia Surround resolution of 5760*1080 to prevent stretching of the menus:
FE_SCREEN_HEIGHT = 1080 FE_SCREEN_LEFT = 1920 FE_SCREEN_TOP = 0 FE_SCREEN_WIDTH = 1

Its not the fact that menus are stretched or anything, it's the fact that FIFA 15 simply does not support EyeFinity/ nVidia Surround. Unlike FIFA 13 and FIFA 14 that did they decided to remove the support in FIFA 15 totally. You can't even force it by altering the ini!

Is this still the case?

Sorry for the thread revival, it's just I want to try it on my 3 monitor setup!!! At the moment, it just doesn't seem to work, huge black bars on either side screen with only a small amount of the game when I use the 5760 x 1200 mode.

Yup, its still the case, that's the exact res i was trying to go for as well. Decided multi monitor setup wasnt as issue free as I would have liked so switched to a 4k panel instead which it plays lovely on.

If you can live with basically the same game but out of date teams then play FIFA 14 instead

FIFA 14 is far from the same game......in fact it was the worst FIFA for almost a decade AFAIC!
