FIFA 2K17 and WWE 2K17? How were your experiences? I played FIFA 2K17 for approximately 50 minutes today. Need to play more to form an opinion though.
Been a huge FIFA fan all my life. Over the last few years I got into ultimate team and this year like an idiot I spent a lot of money on in game packs to get the best players. This doesn't always work out and you can get some shit players. My teams value was around the 2 million coins mark. Out of curiosity I sold some coins to a 3rd party site just to see how it worked as I was thinking of getting rid of my team ( more on that later). So after I had sold these coins I'm logged on the next day I had been banned from online FIFA. I emailed EA asking to review this decision and they were unmoved. So after spending hundreds of pounds (like an idiot) I have nothing to show for it ( not that I really would have anyway) I'm glad im a sense I got banned as o don't feel I would have stopped spending money on it. Also there are rumours of something called 'Scripting' within Ultimate Team which basically means that the game decides how it wants the match to go. It doesn't matter how good your players are when this is in effect. You could have Sergios Ramos with 78 pace getting outsprinted by Giroud with 50 pace. This was noticeable when I played the game but couldn't bring myself to stop playing as I had already put a large amount of cash in it. Offline FIFA though, can't go wrong with it.
Haven't played FIFA since 15. I have WWE 2K17, it's my first WWE game since WWE 13. It's not horrible, I enjoy it I guess. I've heard that it's a step down from last year in the sense that there's a lot more room for error and glitches seem to be happening all the time. I haven't run into a major glitch yet but right now my save file is apparently corrupted and I'm not entirely sure how to fix it. I really wish they'd re-introduce a story mode though. My Career is cool but it doesn't really cut it for me, at least make it like NBA 2K's My Career where you actually have cut scenes and storylines. It seems asinine that they'd have that for a basketball game and not a wrestling game. I get that 2K kind of has that now but there's really no fluid story. Also, I have no idea how commentary has gotten so much worse. I remember back in SVR 09 where the commentators would actually talk about the storyline that was happening in Road to WrestleMania, and that was almost a decade ago. It's laughably bad.
WWE 2K17 is alright. I get the games every year and love them at first. My Career is pretty bad really. I wish the rankings and everything were based on actual performance (IE winning matches) instead of t-shirt sales and quality of your match. I've beaten everyone on the roster (literally) and I am 4th in the US Title rankings. The promo system is VERY flawed and there's no real way to guarantee a good promo, which also hurts your ranking. I really would love if they made career mode something that starts the RAW after Wrestlemania, and leads to your first Wrestlemania match and so on. Hopefully 2K18 is better with MyCareer.
2k17 had a great way to have a 2k mode... You could have programmed in the streak... Except... No hogan... And that's the issue.... That's the only issue.
WWE 2K17 and most wrestling games are pretty awesome. The best part of it is the community creations mode, where you can download wrestlers. I wish it had more CAW slots though. 100 is a lot, but the more the better. Never played FIFA, so I don't know about it.
