FIFA 17 Trial Available For EA Access & Origin Access Subscribers, Play For 10 Hours

Does your progress in the 10 hour trial carry over when the game is released?

Can I start a career now and keep it going or will I have to start over?

We need VERY SLOW more than ever. @nunogomes: it will always be better playing against another human than the CPU. That's a fact! But as mentioned before the CPU reacts so much more human on Legendary in FIFA 17. Kind of the same way "Ultimate" level felt in 16.

I agree, really liking legendary, even set it to slow however passing is horrible- the ball feels like it's half deflated!

Yup you can continue once game is released.

In limited videos I've seen, the lighting looks really good. I presume it isn't progressive though?

The lighting was an issue in demo but it's been improved in full version.

Anyone checked for the winter gear bug, yet?

It makes for some truly remarkable looking passing attacks. Especially long low balls to wingers or advanced midfielders which can then run at the fullbacks or center halves. In addition, the low driven shots feel just about spot on. This is something I don't think PES got right (at least judging from the demo). I've slotted in from 10 or 12 yards a few times and each one has looked like a goal that could easily have happened in any Premier League game.

How can your perform the low driven shot?
And how do you get the long through balls to work?
Do you have to be on manual passing?

As someone who thought the Journey was dumb when it was first announced. I actually liked what I saw of it last night. I played it for about 2 hours. Didn't get very far in even in that time. But the way they are handling it is by far the best story driven sports mode to date. Way better than anything NBA 2k has done. Yes the cut scenes are cheesy. But the presentation overall is pretty good. They actually make you do drills to train. They present you with your information in a visually appealing way also. And the part where you pick the team I thought was fantastic. How they prepared a little speech for each team. And commented no how well you'd fit and how soon you'd likely to get playing time.

Aside from that I didn't check anything else out. And I haven't played enough to comment on gameplay yet. But I can say so far it feels like a shell of the beta on the pitch.

Thanks for this, I am still going to keep my preorder for FIFA this year. I feel like I will at least find some fun in the gameplay this year especially if the journey is as good as I've been hearing.
