How do I get more loan players? Head into EAS FC by clicking the right stick to jump straight into the hub menu at any time, or go into the club catalogue directly from the main menu. You can only obtain loan players that are unlocked based on your in-game level. Selecting a free kick taker. Use the best free kick taker you have to make the process easier. To see who is most likely to succeed, look on the free kick selector menu once you have a free kick by holding RT. Select a player with a high FK accuracy, 80+ is usually good, as getting the kick on target is your main priority. A high power and curve stat can also be beneficial. Some players also have specialities which include free-kicks so USE them! Some also have power free kicks such as Naldo the Brazilian center back.

 

Have some patience. It's better to have some patience and not use the buy now button all the time. It will cost you a lot of cheap FIFA 15 coins which is not necessary. The trick is to search for players you want to buy, and search for the lowest prices. Bid on a few of them (for example bid 200 FIFA coins on 5 the same players), some will be overbid but most of the time you'll get one or two players for a good price. Keep doing this trick for a week and you'll easily have 80.000 or more. The next step could be; buy the player you've always wanted. Or start trading with more expensive popular players and do the trick over and over again. So, the $64,000 question - is FIFA 15 better to play than last year? The short answer is no. It's so different that it will frustrate as many fans as it delights, based on their different approaches to the game. But ask another question. Would we want FIFA, like Call of Duty, to have nailed-down mechanics that gets infinitesimal tweaks each year? Again, the answer is probably no.

 

All the usual modes are back and pretty much work the same as they did in previous FIFA titles, but why fix something that’s not broken, right? We buy this game because of the innovation and updates in the game play, not for the different modes. Though, I did notice that FIFA 15 doesn’t have the lobbies anymore, or at least I couldn’t find them on the game. Which comes as a great shame to me if they have been removed as enjoyed playing the 11v11 “Be A Pro” game modes on certain websites like Your FIFA League.net where the website was based around that game mode, and was just about to re-launch after missing FIFA 15. It’s worth having a crack at the ‘skill games’ also, as you will learn neat little tricks that will help you doing game play. You also get rewarded for spending your time playing the skill games with Achievements, which is always a good thing. FIFA 15 Ultimate Team returns for all you out there that enjoyed playing this little game mode in previous FIFA titles. No doubt this will consume some of my hard earned cash when I get into it as I strive for a better team to compete online - My wallet hates micro transactions, as do I…But I just can’t stop myself when it comes to UT game modes - DAMN YOU EA!!

 

That realism extends to the replays. They look brilliant - slowed down, the grass can be seen coming off the end of a players' boot as they shoot. For fouls, the exact contact that’s been made can be scrutinised. Players now have a far wider range of emotions too, meaning the players appear to react according to the situation they're in, and aren't afraid to get physical with their opponents after a dodgy tackle either. Another touch is goal-line technology being used. It's obviously pointless, a computer knows whether it's in or not, but the authentic angles and visuals are great. A striker grimaces when he misses a chance to score. A goalkeeper shouts at his defenders for failing to protect him. A player reacts angrily to a bad tackle. Players on the bench react accordingly when a goal is scored or disallowed. Even the linesman offers a wry smile when he flags for offside. All these new features - emotions, better ball physics and goal-scoring randomness - added together make FIFA 15 the best football simulation game. Again.
