    Fifa 21 = (Fifa 20 Ctrl + C ) (Ctrl + V)
    Trash and full of buggs.

    Do not support EA, just play fifa 20, 19 or 18. Same game, different price.

    Game is full of gamling too.

    Die selben Karriere Bugs wie in FIFA 21. Ganz großes Trauerspiel von EA. War mit Sicherheit mein letztes FIFA für eine sehr lange Zeit.

    FIFA 21 is the scrappiest football game I've ever played. Blocks turn into rebounds, if you tackle a player they end up getting the ball back instantly anyway or they just keep the ball regardless. The gameplay is in no way rewarding so it doesn't provide me with any sense of "pride and accomplishment".

The gameplay is in no way rewarding so it doesn't provide me with any sense of "pride and accomplishment". Just the latest instalment of EA's cash cow that everyone seems to hate but buys again and again every year regardless. This is my first FIFA since 17 (and I actually quit that in the first few weeks) and yet nothing has really changed other than the addition of Weekend League I guess. WL is a competitive mode but it fails tremendously due to the absolute bull s*** that plagues FIFA and always has done. This game will never change and will never become the football game that so many people want it to become as long as those same people keep buying it and kindly bending over so EA can continue to shaft them whilst withdrawing all the money from their bank account. I'm sure all of you are familiar with the definition of Insanity? Yeah, well that's FIFA and also those that buy it every year... Expand

    The pack weight is lower than the user score, career mode has changed just enough to call it an improvement and fut has become more competitive without any casual game modes, because friendlies are used for objectives where you must win. If you want to play a fun football game this is not it.

    Game hasn't been upgraded since fifa 17. Also not giving pc the next gen verison that the new consoles got because of performance issues is the biggest bs I've ever heard. I regret purchasing this game on PC

    Defending is impossible. Every match literally ends up with scores like 6-5. Feels like a table football rather then an actual Football game.

    I skipped fifa 20 and put my hands on fifa 21 cause I found it at a good price.
    I wasted my money.
    This game is several steps behind fifa 19, the AI is terrible, defense system is crappy, and the option "traditional defense" is a scam, since players won't go on the ball while pressing even using that option, so it's basically as it didn't exist. Passes seem to be straight out pes 06, they

    Passes seem to be straight out pes 06, they go wherever they want.

    I even created a player with maxed out statistics, he still couldn't pass the ball in a straight line.

    With this said, it's extremely hard to play with the AI, which will never fail in pressing your players frame perfect, let alone playing online.

    Almost forgot, when the opponent does a high long pass, your players won't go for the ball, they'll either stay still or they'll keep running forward, the opposite direction of where the ball is going.

    EA is a f*****g scam

    Go to a homeless man, give him 20€ and I promise you you'll have spent your money better than on this insult to football.

    - You got a decent GPU and want to experience true next-gen graphics, like on the PS5? Too bad, the PC version looks SIGNIFICANTLY worse than the PS5 version.

    What a **** joke.

    This is the worst Fifa I've played. I thought "Surely it wouldn't be THAAAAAAAT bad". It's that bad.

    Another year, another FIFA and surprise, it's the same thing. Coming from a long time fan on the series, I keep questioning why I buy them every year. but on that note, I look forward to FIFA22 in hopes they improve Pro Clubs.

    I once played Chris Kama's Street Soccer and I thought "This is the worst football sim I've ever played". I would like to apologize to the people that developed that game because FIFA 21 is far worst. If i could, i'd give them the money i've spent on FIFA 21 instead. To be fair to FIFA, it isn't a football sim, it's just a luck game. Gameplay is terribly broken, filled with bugs.

Also, your team will fluctuate between 2004 Brazil and the worst Sunday league team ever. No in-between, no consistency, no sense.

    For the love of god DON'T PLAY THIS GAME. DON'T BUY THIS GAME. Here are a list of actually good alternatives:
    -Chris Kamara's Street Soccer
    -Italia 90
    -PES. Any PES.
    -David Beckham Soccer
    -RedCard
    -If it must be a fifa, buy a PS3 and play any FIFA before FIFA 16.
    -FIFA Street 2 if you want to have fun by yourself

    If it doesn't need to be a football sim. you could buy a load of indie games that are way better.
    Celeste, Hollow Knight, Hades. There, a lot of hours in those games. Want to play with your friends? No problem: Rust, Overcooked 2, Farm Together, GTA V.

    Whatever you do in life, don't buy this game. Trust me. Don't buy any FIFA. PLEASE.

    Scripted, full of bugs, random mistakes from players, worst fifa ever. EA does not fix bugs, defending is terrible, sometimes u can be better 100x times than your opponent, but if game decided that you will lose,l, you will lose u can't do nothing about it.

    This is the worst FIFA game I've ever played in my life. FIFA have always been arcade but not as much as this year's one. This is simply not football. Playing against the AI is infuriating and unrealistic. There's simply no way for you to succeed without performing fast paced counter attacks. Plus the AI will simply guess your every move no matter how unpredictable you try to be. TheThis is the worst FIFA game I've ever played in my life. FIFA have always been arcade but not as much as this year's one. This is simply not football. Playing against the AI is infuriating and unrealistic. There's simply no way for you to succeed without performing fast paced counter attacks. Plus the AI will simply guess your every move no matter how unpredictable you try to be. The opposition plays the same the majority of the time, no matter the team's overall and almost every shot hits the target. Oh and their attacks makes no sense and would never even be able to be performed in real life, even less by 3 star teams. The career mode is a joke as well and there's a huge chance you'll be unable to use your top players during pre season tournaments due to them being used on international competition at that time. In spite of this, the entire game is a buggy mess and I regret buying this pile of garbage. And no, I'm not a hater, by the contrary. I've been playing FIFA since I got my first gaming console and I consider myself a good player. Thing is, no mater how many games I win, it never feels rewarding nor fun as it's not authentic football by any means. It's a rip off. Not to mention that the PC version is the exact same one as the PS4's version with all the missing features from next-gen. And I'm pretty sure the PS4 version is not as half as bugged as this one because we, PC players, apparently, are not worthy of a solid final product. I don't recommend this game. F*ck you EA!! Expand

    Most times in gaming history the successor is much better than the predecessor, eg. DMC 5, The Witcher 3. But FIFA 20 has done a better job than FIFA 21; e.g. free kick. The only thing what is better about FIFA 21 ist the updated roster.

    The few positives do not outweigh the negatives. EA Sports continues to phone it in with the FIFA series while single-player gamers cry out for better options.

    FIFA 21 fixes some on-pitch issues, though it stops short of giving the series the meaningful overhaul it needs.

    FIFA 21 maintains the same base as last year, with few gameplay tweaks that are here make for a better overall experience.
