FIFA 16 takes a new approach with FIFA Trainer

FIFA 16 is well on its way. This year we have a host of new gameplay features and for the very first time - the inclusion of women. One notable information that has yet to emerge is the full FIFA 16 Specialties Guide. FIFA specialties are the attributes of a player that are inherent to their skill and ability. The nature in which FIFA assigns specialties are based solely on the ratings (physical traits) assigned to each player. Technical free kick is a perfect way to play this set piece, as long as you have the players with appropriate set of technical skills. This type of shot especially works at the distance of up to twenty meters of the goal. To perform this type of free kick, press the shot button and the finesse shot modifier.
 
FIFA 16 allows you to perform a free kick with, as many as, three players. To take advantage of their skills, while playing this set piece, to each combination add: the pace control button for the second player, the finesse shot modifier for the third player. EA Sports has announced that FIFA 16 will feature 12 women's international teams from Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the United States of America. The publisher says they'll be playable in "several game modes including Kick Off, offline tournaments, and online friendly matches." It's nice to see EA finally give ladies their due; it is the world's most popular sport, after all. FIFA 16 complete with a bunch of women's national teams.

 
Real Madrid will likely play with a 4-3-3 formation. This allows the flanks to be exposed by crosses. Therefore you should be using a club with great crossing like Bayern Munich (Philip Lahm and Ribery). This is the first major way you can bamboozle Real Madrid. FIFA Ultimate Team players will be excited that a Messi and Pele 5 game loan card will be included with the game as long as you log into your FUT account or create one if you don't have one already. So there are three ways to beat Real Madrid: 1) World Class Right Winger 2) Top Crossing 3) Great defender for Ronaldo. So with that criteria in mind, there is only one team that is world-class in all of those pain points.
 
Whilst this may help make the game look more realistic I can’t help but think that this is yet another feature to hold people’s hands by automatically doing the things that the player probably should be doing for themselves. On the other hand, passing with precision revolutionises the way you pass. In FIFA 16 you can ping passes with pace into team mates feet or path. Hopefully this will go some way to counter interception analysis enabling you to weigh up your options and pick out intelligent passes with purpose. It’s hard to explain to someone how to play FIFA. There are so many types of passes, with multiple modifiers creating different outcomes. It’s hard to just pass someone a controller and expect them to pick it up. Recent instalments introduced Skill Games, which, while they did a decent job of conveying the basics, it was sometimes hard to transfer those lessons into an actual game.
 
FIFA 16 takes a new approach with FIFA Trainer, a constant on-screen guide which drills you as you play an actual game. At all times it presents you with two suggestions of what you should be doing. So if you’re not in possession, it’ll advise you to pressure play or track the player with the ball. This is done through a mixture of text and button prompts. It sounds like a lot, but it’s fairly stripped back. It will also scale to your ability. So if you’re a total novice, it’ll focus on the basics, but for more advanced players it’ll teach you the best situation in which to use a lofted through ball. It’s a neat idea, tackling a problem many new players encounter, but it’s success relies on keeping the UI simple and intelligible.
