So what? Ignite is 99% marketing BS, it's not going to change FIFA or the way it plays. Download the PC demo and enjoy, it's a very good game with some db edits to slow the gameplay. And I'm serious about lightening up bro. Life's too short and it's just not worth it; take it from someone who has decades of regrets about always focusing on the negative and not the positive. (Y)
As far as i know, ignite is how EA makes their game for the next few years; there will be the evolution as shown on another EA game.
I do not just choose a game, but also choose the quality in it..

Well, though i share your opinion that scandal is a strong word in this case, I think it is completely understanable that pc players are fucked up and show this.
You pay money for something, so you want the best of it. Fifa 14 Engine is worse than some f2p games engine.

But in fact, EA never took that much in Fifa then they do in other Sports games. As I said, look at madden nfl and all the other games, they have better graphics, way better models of the players. all that shit.

There are (in my opinion) two aspects, why pc will never have that many fans as consoles: Consoles are cheaper, and made to play with other people in one room, on one tv. PC never really had that onescreenmultiplaying (of course it is possible, but I actually never saw two guys sitting in front of one pc)

Not arguing, but the logic here doesn't make sense to me. You can have the Ignite FIFA experience by simply buying a PS4. I bought a new Honda years ago and paid several thousand dollars more for it than if I had bought a new Hyundai. But I wanted the car that I thought was best, so I paid extra for the luxury. If you think Ignite will be the best way to experience FIFA, then spend the extra money and go buy a console. Nobody is preventing you from doing that.

after playing a few more matches i can say that not much has changed.

defending is still horrible, defenders just let attackers run by, that ninja dribbling is still there and worse than last year, goalkeepers are worse than last years goalkeepers.

i can go on, no change ai/gameplay wise except the new features.

not enough for me to purchase 14, now to try the pes 14 demo and if it's not much better i may just skip footy this year.

Really? Slow speed db and the new player inertia, and the improved player positioning together make this game about as simulation as I could hope for with FIFA.

Guess it's a matter of taste. I prefer the player models in FIFA much more, Madden and NHL players are insanely bulky. EA didn't get the message to Just Say No to steroids.

the inertia is fine but with some players the ninja dribbling is worse than it used to be.

movement and agility feels decent but it simply isn't enough to make me say even though the defending is still horrible, etc i will purchase this game.

the players are more bulky but that is because those sports require padding which make even the skinniest man look big.

Of course, I'm saying the padding in both games is way overdone. Players look ridiculously big compared how real-life players look.

On this pic (sorry for quality, demo does not let me take screens for some reason) you can see what I think is wrong on fifa models

Especially shoulder and arms are horrible. And the slim model is still the best one.
normal and big model are even worse

(And btw, the next gen version does not change much on that - or nothing. What I saw until now, most of the brand new stuffs are the new animations and the spectators in the next gen version.)

I agree with you. I cannot see much of an improvement from FIFA13 and for some reason I believe there will not be many new and fascinating features in the full game. I am not into fantasy teams and stuff anyway... As the new career mode will probably be broken until January I think I will skip this one and continue with my modded FIFA13.
