The development team at EA Sports is delivering yet another Team of the Week package for the Ultimate Team mode in FIFA 16, which allows gamers to get access to some of the best players of the moment, including the incredible Jamie Vardy, who is currently leading Leicester to the Premier League title and might become an even bigger star during the coming European Championship. Another FIFA game that Laba enjoys is the computer game variety. He's a keen player of the EA Sports FIFA series on his XBox, so much so that he's set up a very competitive online league with fellow Whitecaps Cristian Techera, Nicolas Mezquida and former player Diego Rodriguez.
All the players are selected based on their performance during championship matches that took place over the weekend, and they can be used to improve the Chemistry of any user-created first eleven. It's too bad there are no American football-style fantasy drafts in FIFA 16 when you want to begin the campaign in career mode. Unless you're playing FIFA Ultimate Team Draft, you'll have to wheel and deal to acquire the services of the best players in the world on one club.
The attacking line of the Team of the Week for FIFA 16 is dominated by English players, with Jamie Vardy joined by Andy Carroll from West Ham but also by Klose, who has been performing very well in Italy. There was little crossing. Several of the top players remarked in interviews after their games how they believed that crossing wasn't worth trying when in a good position. Instead it was head down and charge at goal (using some flicks) and getting within that golden area for shooting in the box. Few long-range efforts here.
However, there were a lot of cross-field passes, with the new driven pass widely used. Smashing the ball about the pitch at pace had the knock-on effect of catching opponents out of position and lending attackers more time on the ball. In addition to bursting with new contents, one of the most lauded features of the “FIFA 16” is the FIFA 16 Ultimate Team (FUT) Mode, which is a game mode where players must learn to form teams with the cards they randomly get from digital booster packs, notes Game Reactor.
After assembling the team in the FUT Mode, gamers can start participating in several tournaments and get a chance to win a championship to earn more gold coins which can eventually be used to build their respective dream team. They play online with microphones so they are all "talking all the time," no matter which two players are playing a game at that moment. They play as random teams and in tournaments with the Ultimate Teams. Laba says the key to success in the game is "practice" and putting together a team that has good "chemistry" and players of the same nationality. Sounds like the key to success is the same in video games as in real life!
