FUT 16- New Draft Game Mode
« on: August 06, 2015, 07:42:22 am »
Anyone have any thoughts on this announced today?
I'm not convinced. Will it be dead once the novelty wears off, and will they actually be able to implement it without messing things right up? This being EA, can they be trusted? If they do it right it could be good, but could your typical FUT player risk a loss on there record that would come if they had to use below 60 pace players in half their team. They wouldn't be able to defend without Walker and Ramires!
Also 15k to enter with your money back if you lose in the first round? That'll blatently be two shocking 7.5k packs with Hangelland as your best player!
Not too long until we find out.

Looks interesting, however as you say it may get old pretty quickly. Not sure about paying 15k to play it though.

Yea as said looks good but 15k or 300FP is a bit much will be interesting to see, heard you can pick your difficulty offline and all that is affected is the coins reward after matches and not the main prizes  :o

Just another way for EA to milk money outta people, but a good opportunity to try before you buy i suppose.

Disappointed to see NO development of Pro Clubs what so ever  :'(


Some gameplay if you didn't see it

On my phone so can't see the video above, but have watched the one from Gamescom from kickoff mode, Barca vs Chelsea. It looks very fast! Pass fly to the players.
If this is normal fifa, I'd imagine FUT will be even faster. My worry is that high pressure will be absolutely crazy. Looks to me like you'll get 0.25 seconds to do anything. If they don't sort fitness ingame this could be hellish and the usual pacey nonsense.

Of course it's still a month until the demo and 6 week until the game. The demo and released game normally are completely different. We'll see.

Every bit of gameplay I've seen of fifa 16 involves headed goals, including Alba outjumping Terry. FIFA 14 all over again?

Have watched all the videos too and yeah - it appears crossing seems to be the OP aspect so far. Some of the driven crosses have been ridiculous.

On the draft mode - it does seem like a nice addition when wanting to try out some players. Don't know if I quite agree with the principal around getting your 15k back in it's entirety even after losing the first match. Just seems like it will either be abused, or people will simply quit in that first game. Kinda like the first game of a tournament.

May just mean that tons of people will be playing this at the start given access to quality players, right off the bat. Then, as people slowly improve their teams, a migration to seasons/cups will follow.

Has anyone actually bothered with this? I haven't touched it since the first day I got the game, and that was only because of the free token the web app save.

Ditto. It's far too many coins to risk on the inevitable quick exit. My token only stretched to one game in it. Bit daft really, didn't realise you only had one and used it for my first game on UT...

It's great. Lose after one game, you generally get 2 gold packs and a silver players pack.  Gets better as you go.

Win it all and usually get a mega pack or rare player pack. 50k's worth of packs.  It's good also to be able to try the likes of hero Ronaldo before you buy.

Used the freebie and that was it.

As I generally don't do back to back wins, anything resembling a KO competition is off limits for me  :D

Not entirely sure what our record is, but overall we came away even (across all attempts). Probably tried it 4 maybe 5 times, but that was all within the first 2 weeks of release.

Not bothered again, as the repetitiveness of players being used, is simply stupid. I think we had choices on CR7/Messi in every one of the attempts, as well as a number of legends.

I reckon to make this more interesting, you should be able to select your starting player (not the choice of 4) and then the 4 choices kicks in for the rest. To curb the 'select Ronaldo at every attempt', a rule should be in place that the player you select is then not available for the next 2/3/4/5 draft attempts.

This would make it better for me, to start with a TIF Ibra for example, and then work your way to the best chem team.

Alternatively, go down a fantasy league principle with the 'team cost no more than 100-point' concept, & placing rules in there. I know some might say this is too hard (and no doubt is relatively complex from a coding perspective). However, I actually built a template around this for a previous tournament (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B_H_fUX5TL-TX0l5MEVaN0tWcEk).

The tournament never really worked - why? Well, the people involved found it too difficult to build teams. Go figure ... ::)

Anyway, I do still think this is a decent "1.0 release". More tweaking is required for longevity though.
