If you could do me a favour by liking the video I'd appreciate it!

[logorex]

I still want them to have trophy presentations after you win a cup. :/

[DoctorBenjyFM]

Are you hopeful that Sports Interactive have put together the best match engine ever?

[itstuggyo]

Thank you for the breakdown :) really helpful. Extremely exited for this years FM!

[CUTTY]

Can't lie since FM16 came out, I've put more hours into FM15 than 16. It might be because of the regens I have are some of the best I've seen and I feel connected in some way lol but idk I just seemed to prefer 15

[TheSkrzek]

I'm only waiting for sweaty goals, cuz after hundred of hours I never saw one. Instead they where shooting straight at the keeper even if they had space to pass to his mate.

[MrWillyMrBrightside]

I'm not that confident. I play on 2D Classic, so the 3D pitch doesn't matter to me. I just hope they fix many of the stupid problems that FM16 had, like wide players trying to score from an impossibly tight angle rather than passing it to an unmarked man in the centre of the six-yard box... every time.

[RTAC_]

looks pretty decent...i didnt buy fm16 as i was still playing fm15, but i might buy the new one...people always have quibbles, and that's fair enough, but we have to say that over the years they've delivered a phenomenal game

[tdcx]

As always they're promising a lot but I'll wait to see what the match engine is actually like before buying. I've been loyal to the game for years but it feels like every year they promise better, more intelligent AI, and it ends up slightly broken. Hope they live up to their hype but I feel a bit like SI rest on their laurels too much as they have no competitors and a loyal fan base. Really hope they can live up to their promises though!

[TheApocalypse]

nothing earth shattering but some nice tweeks i guess

[michaelduck]

Let's get real; there hasn't been any significant changes since they introduced the 3D match engine and got rid of the tactical sliders. We're all just buying this for the updated database.

[benpriest]

Still hoping that there's a big reveal of some kind to give it a new feel. The improvements noted on this look good on paper though, pre-match presentation is a bit of a weird one though

[michaelramsden]

Without playing it its always going to be difficult to judge. On the face of it a lot of those seem cosmetic. I'm more interested as to whats going on under the hood and that won't be possible to you've had a good 50 hours play time with it.

They're saying the right things though I guess.

[VanTuylAjax]

If my job centered around FM content, of course would pick up 17, but as a casual player, not enough incentive to rush out and buy the next installment.

[thomasjacobsenstokke]

is it possible to skip the pre match presentation???

[NtheLAS]

As long as defenders with 15+ in decisions and composure stops assisting opponent attackers every god damn time with a retarded back pass and strikers actually start scoring some one-on-ones then I will be one happy camper.

[YesMan_Lucky]

Wait for the steam users reviews b4 you buy.

[MartinATL]

Not impressed whatsoever. I still haven’t pre-ordered FM17, and I doubt that I will.
