FIFA 17 Momentum evidence discovered?

A few days ago, the FIFA community over at reddit went mad after an user shared some suspicious in-game code lines of FIFA 17 that might point to momentum/scripting inputs.

The code lines in discussion can be found in the Initfs-Win32 file in the data folder of the FIFA 17 game on PC and below you can see a preview of those codes:

// This of the attribute and trait names ——————-

//

//— fatigue (0-100)

//DB_FATIGUE

//

//— team chemistry (0-100) (used in momentum)

//DB_TEAM_CHEMISTRY

//DB_AVERAGE_RATING

If we take a quick look at some of these codes we can see that if we have a lot of shots, score or have high possession in the first 20 minutes of a match, the game difficulty will increase.

For now we do not know if these codes apply to online modes like FUT or Seasons, but they most definitely apply to offline modes like Career Mode.

This is the second time in a year that EA Sports are caught red-handed with fishy stuff in their game after the FIFA 16 Chemistry Glitch.

Do you think momentum/scripting exist in FIFA after these recent discoveries? Please leave your opinions in the comment box below.
