    The physics update is pretty good, but it appears that once again, the creators of FIFA have completely ignored what fans of the game actually want. Instead, they keep catering to their need to sell FUT points. When will they fix or develop the career modes, for example? I play FUT and manager career and occasionally player career, but honestly, I find FUT boring because it's so contrived.The physics update is pretty good, but it appears that once again, the creators of FIFA have completely ignored what fans of the game actually want.

The Journey was a brilliant idea, but the tight plot doesn't actually provide for any sense of your own exploring of the game. Expand

    I really only play manager career mode on this game. The game mode has been arguably the same for over a decade. The mix of realism and arcade is okay. And to be honest the game is really just an overpriced FIFA 18 update. It's really the graphics that made me change from my initial rating of 1.

    Come potete vedere guardando il mio profilo io sono un giocatore di FIFA di lunga data, anche se non continuativo.
    Questo "gioco" è un'offesa. Non c'è una sola caratteristica in questo questo gioco sia al top: graficamente buono ma mediocre, audio imbarazzante (se non per la colonna sonora che regala sempre perle), animazioni e fluidità pessime. A questo bisogna aggiungere

    Non c'è una sola caratteristica in questo questo gioco sia al top: graficamente buono ma mediocre, audio imbarazzante (se non per la colonna sonora che regala sempre perle), animazioni e fluidità pessime.
    A questo bisogna aggiungere tutte già ampiamente criticate modalità, con un Ultimate Team che spreme fino all'ultimo centesimo i giocatori con meccaniche da gioco d'azzardo, partite scriptate, modalità senza giocatori e una carriera misera che smette di coinvolgere dopo poche ore.

    Su PC il gioco si risolleva grazie alle mod, che non influenzano l'online ma permettono di migliorare l'atmosfera degli stadi (inserendo le licenze mancanti e migliorando maglie e striscioni), l'equilibro della modalità carriera e anche il gameplay (cosa che un po' si può fare anche agendo sui settaggi interni al gioco).

    Sorry of my bad English, but I want to tell you about this sh*t.

    I was playing FIFA since 2005 year. There were different games. Some versions were a good, some - bad. When I played game, I have felt both negative emotions but pleasant too. But in FIFA 18 and now, in FIFA 19 I feel only aggression, despair and boring. If you write, that 'Every year we pay for the same game', you don't

    If you write, that 'Every year we pay for the same game', you don't play FIFA enough. There is a lot of difference in the gameplay. But one thing doesn't change - you will hate this game through every 2 matches.
    When I play FIFA 19, I can't relax and enjoy a beautiful game that called football. You're working hard since start until the end match.
    After several matches, I don't want to see or to hear anything about this game. I want to delete this **** But I spent money and every evening I should come back and play.
    Please. don't buy this game. Save your nerves and mood

Es un simulador de fútbol, y su jugabilidad es horrorosa. Expand

    Essentially the same game as last year. Absolutely no change to career mode, some minor upgrades to gameplay and graphics; but not enough to justify the £45 price tag.

    It seems EA have given up on single player career mode to concentrate on milking the cash cow that is FUT. If you are looking to buy this game for career mode, I recommend waiting a few months until you can pick it up

    Its a disaster. Scripts, scripts, scripts, scripts, scripts and nothing more. Eternal comeback scenario and game still using same scripts and engine from 2003 fifa. Ea talking about Frostbite, omegalul, and motion and movement still the same as its was in fifa 2009 but players models are more blurry (yeah, engine can in smoothing)

    I start playing FIFA since 1997 and this FIFA it's...pure garbage, it's a game that you want to give to someone you really hate it. This will be the perfect blow to his morale.

    Player control is the worst of the whole series (and I'm not talking about the ball control) feals like trying to control trucks disguised as human beeings and everything is scripted in their move. Many times
    I start playing FIFA since 1997 and this FIFA it's...pure garbage, it's a game that you want to give to someone you really hate it. This will be the perfect blow to his morale.

    Player control is the worst of the whole series (and I'm not talking about the ball control) feals like trying to control trucks disguised as human beeings and everything is scripted in their move. Many times they just keep doing their run to nowhere giving you the feeling they are like on some invisible tram tracks no matter if you keep pushing like crazy to stop, the script in their behavior is doing the job

    There is always like an invisible hand working for the Ai players in duels of 1 vs 1 that will drag your player, teleportating him from controlling the ball in the back of his Ai opponent. When you try to do the same, it's like fighting a bull

    Ai ball interception.
    On ultimate the Ai players have like an 360 range all around them to intercept the ball 99% they will succeed it
    if the balls goes in that range of 360 all around them, no matter if it's on the ground or in the air, could be in the ground, they will still intercept it while your players gonna give you that move "ooh, it just passed under me, couldn't do anything but let's keep trying, you keep pushing the buttons while i'm gonna pretend it didn't work only for you"

    Double player, don't do it, don't use it!
    The second players always come and ruin your other player work till that moment, many times will just collide with him preventing him to get the ball and this happened 99% of the time it's being used.
    And before the need to collide with his teammate, all the time he needs to go behind your player and your opponent no matter if he came from the front of them. This have nothing to do with a bug, a script or a misleading animation, this have something to do with the people who work at EA Canada, people with too many rights, with the right to get in love with a colleague of the same gender and then express that in a game, protected by ...nobody can really proof that, even if that stupid move it may happend in real football matches like 0,01% of a game and it's not the only place I saw it. When you prepare to throw from the line, you see your players who are in good positions, most of the time, like 50% of the time, suddenly they will change this by going behinde their opponents, agin this need To put a guy behind another guy and touching it like...c'mon "guys" it's just a game, go with your idiotic fantasy somewhere else. This disgusting me, bleah..

    If 2 players collide each other or an Ai player bump into you, 100% all the time the Refs decide against you

    The ball
    Works different for the Ai and you. There are cases when the ball it's in the air and you are much close to it then the Ai players and in that moment the ball feels like it's a balon and till an Ai player will be in the spot to fight for this ball, will barely came down. When the situation is reversed, the ball descends as if it were from stone.
    There are other cases when the ball is almost going out, but an Ai player is near by, so in that moment the ball is like having his own brakes, always somehow is waiting the AI player, but when you are close and desperately try to get it, the ball get some speed from nowhere just to touch, a bit the white line, a microscopic touch and bamm, the ball is out for you.

    Clean area
    Every time an Ai player who is with his back at my gate he surprisingly kick the ball with 100% accuracy to his forward players, all the time, every time

    Nano Microscopic offsides as always

    Referees sucks.
    They are there to be an physical obstacle only when you are in attack never against the Ai and if the Ai is doing a normal booking the Ref will give him a pet talk, but if you do less than that and the score on the table is in your favor, the Ref came like a storm in front of you with with lot of drama showing you the yellow card right away(only if he could had a gun in that moment, EA style of thinking) and if the score on the table is in your favor, well, from that moment you are being hunted by the Refs all the time.

    Extra time.
    Works grat for the Ai, never for you. When the ball is in the AI possession, the extra time keep going till the AI fulfilled his opportunity but when it's your turn, bang, game over right away. The refs will never stop an Ai attack, for this I throw out the ball 20 times and the refs never bother to stop the game, but he will stop you, no matter if you just got a second corner, it will always stop you. this doesn't feel fair.

    I won many games on ultimate vs Ai with scores like 9-1, 8-0, 13-1 vs big teams in the game in a 9 minutes game with Barcelona team vs Juve vs Arsenal..and sometimes using just a keyboard, this should tell ya how "great" is this game.

    And i'll tell you more in time, but till then my score is 1 for the effort

You will hardly find any variation in opponent playing styles and conceding goals. It's incredible that this hasn't been adressed by EA sports, as it makes the game boring as hell. This is the reason why I stopped playing the game and have switched to Pro Evolution Soccer finding out in a matter of hours that, at least on the field, this game is WAY beyond FIFA 19. Expand

    A cash money grab entirely built around making players buy loot-boxes (card packs). Fan favourite career mode is deliberately neglected to force people into micro-transaction hell Ultimate Team. Bugs are not fixed throughout the whole cycle. Their only business model is to have a monopoly on licenses, no innovation, no passion, a shareholder's game.

    FIFA has proven to be quite profitable for Electronic Arts. So profitable changes are meaningless not to ruin the goose of golden eggs. Even The Journey, an enjoyable experience has dropped in writing quality. I can't give more points to a game like this. Congratulations to the artists though, they are the only ones who have done an excellent work.

    Besides the advancements in story mode, some changes were made to core gameplay. It’s hard to say if they’re for better or worse, but the game definitely feels a bit different. Maybe that was the entire point, as you can’t just update team rosters of FIFA 18 and sell it as a new game. But tweak the balance a bit – and you’ve got FIFA 19. [Issue #233, p.53]
