FIFA 16 hat dieses Jahr große Schritte in Richtung Realismus gesetzt und überzeugt endlich mit einem flüssigen Spielablauf und einer großartigen Abwehr Leistung. Die KI zeigt war einige Schwächen auf und auch den Matches fehlt es durch die Änderung etwas am Spielspaß der FIFA bisher ausgezeichnet hat, aber für Fans von PES lohnt sich dadurch dieses Jahr beinahe wirklich komplett der Umstieg. Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 hat dieses Jahr doch etwas an Boden verloren und ist nur noch wegen ein paar Feinheiten besser in Sachen Gameplay als FIFA.

FIFA 16 makes strong strides forward in gameplay, while offering minor additions to an already great core experience and working to get new fans on the field.

FIFA 16 is a series of successful iterations over the last couple of seasons that pays off nicely while not doing any one thing so incredibly well that it serves as a singular selling point. The flow of the game is improved, there are new modes and the presentation is excellent. All solid improvements over an already very good game that fans of the series will no doubt enjoy, but aside from the very generous (and not before time) inclusion of women, this one doesn't offer anything to be blown away by.

در نهایت باید اعتراف کرد ، FIFA 16 کم ایراد ترین و متعادل ترین فیفا ساخته شده تا به امروز بحساب می آید و می توان از آن به عنوان بهترین شبیه ساز فوتبالی سال 2016 نیز یاد کرد . بازی به طرز قابل تحسینی ، تعادل سرعت را به بازی ارائه داده است و دیگر مانند قبل شاهد یک شکل بودن حملات و یا تاثیر غیر منطقی بازیکنان سرعتی نیستیم و براساس استراتژی خود کاملا می توانیم یک طرح هدفمند را ارائه دهیم . فیفا کماکان می تواند بهترین شبیه ساز در سبک خود لقب گیرد اما نباید فراموش کنیم ، این بهترین بودن همچنان ناشی از فرمول خلق شده در نسل هفتم است و بازی در نسخه 2017 ، نیاز به تحولی اساسی در گرافیک ، انیمیشن ها و فیزیک خواهد داشت و این موضوع بدون تغییر یا ارتقا انجین حاصل نخواهد شد .

Beaten to the ball. A frustrating but undeniably well put together package.

FIFA 16 added what it needed to add and refined what it needed to refine. It pinpointed the problems bogging down last year's entry and fixed them. Perhaps one could argue they went too far in the other direction, thereby changing the pace of the gameplay for the worse, but I don't agree.

To say that FIFA 16 is a return to form may very well be one of the biggest understatements of the year.

FIFA 16 manages to reflect how important both planning and chance are during matches, rewarding gamers who tweak their team and execute complex moves with cool efficiency, while finding spectacle in mad scrambles in front of the goal and fun in goals that are scored after ping-pong-like changes between defenders and attackers.

It may be passé to say, but FIFA 16 is a game of two halves. Off the field, not much has changed that you could really write home about. The stalwarts of career mode and Ultimate Team feel much the same as they did before with very minor changes. With the ball at your feet though, the tooth-and-nail fights to hold on to a 1-0 lead against superior opposition or to take advantage of an entirely organic mistake to equalise in the final knockings of a lower league cup match, along with the general feeling that you're taking part in a decent tactical battle are stellar. The things EA hasn't shouted about are the things that they've clearly worked the hardest on and while there are still flaws, this is the best on-pitch representation of the beautiful game since Konami's PlayStation 2 efforts.

Overlooking a number of flaws, FIFA 16 does an incredible job representing soccer. However, once again, FIFA still doesn't innovate enough, with familiarity in gameplay and irritating issues recurring again from previous games.

Overall Fifa 16 is another solid outing from EA Canada, the incremental improvements mean that the title seems like a small step forward rather than a large one but Fifa 16 is a solid footballing title that will not disappoint.

FIFA 16 is an interesting beast. The core gameplay veers towards simulation with thoughtful ways that retool some of its most basic actions and your approach to a match, if you're a fan of fast, frenetic pace of play, this is not for you. However it's hamstrung with flawed execution to some of it's headline features like FUT Draft and women's teams. If you can look past these you'll find a competent football game that's worthy of your time and attention, at least until FIFA 17.

Don't be fooled, the positives might have outweighed the negatives in terms of word-count on the previous page, but FIFA 16 still has room for improvement.

Despite these niggles, FIFA 16 brings exciting football to life and being able to control the ball better and run at defenders with confidence makes for some thrilling game time. As expected with FIFA - the soundtrack is appropriately diverse and appealing, and there isn't any noticeable lag online yet either. It's a worthy step-up from FIFA 15 by fine-tuning small aspects of the game, but not compromising the formula fans have grown to love.

When all was said and done, I truly enjoyed what FIFA 16 brought to the table. Yes, my soccer knowledge is about as good as my knowledge of cricket or astrophysics for that matter, but the game was fun, enjoyable, and provided much more value than the price tag suggest. If FIFA 16 can turn a hardcore fan of hockey into a newly minted fan of football, then you know the game has something special to offer gamers, regardless of their previous experience with the franchise.

Much like its predecessor, FIFA 16 is likely to be picked up by a brand new audience purely thanks to the fact that professional soccer is growing exponentially in popularity in North America. Thankfully, newcomers and veterans alike will find an excellent game of soccer that yet again takes advantage of the higher processing power of current-gen consoles to deliver an experience more realistic than ever.

FIFA 16 doesn't introduce a whole lot of interesting new changes, but it's still an exceptional soccer simulator.
