    Good game. The FUT mode remains as fun as it was, but the interface leaves a lot to be desired. There is no way to see all the items in the club (for example, all player cards). Overall, FUT hasn't changed. The career mode is interesting, but the expectations from the coach for the game are too high (although this is balanced thanks to training), but it is still a little annoying. TheGood game.

The gameplay has become slower, but it will most likely be so only until the first patches. I don't see any strong differences from FIFA 21, but the game is still interesting for football fans like me. VOLTA is an interesting mode. I don't know how long it can last, but I spent my couple of hours on it. Expand

    It plays good after the updates. Great new moves even without hypermotion. The menu is terrible, way worse than before.

    I marked an otherwise solid game down for the scripting and the downright con that is Ultimate Team. It couldn't be more blatantly obvious that EA does its best to hold you back in an attempt to get players to part with money to buy packs to get better players. I was on a 13 game winning streak, totally dominating my games and then literally in an instant my players turn into uselessI marked an otherwise solid game down for the scripting and the downright con that is Ultimate Team.

I was on a 13 game winning streak, totally dominating my games and then literally in an instant my players turn into useless idiots gifting the opposition goals, my keeper suddenly spilling easy saves etc etc. For a football game, the player actually has very little control. The game pre determines which player is going to come out on top on Ultimate team, and it creates a horrific and horribly frustrating experience.

    Career mode is ok.

    The game is nothing special. Ultimate Team is an absolute con.

    Este FIFA a sufrido un cambio claro en cuanto a Gameplay es más lento cosa que viniendo de jugar PES durante unos años me agrada, también tocaron a los porteros son más difíciles de superar y se notan más "vivos", los pases para mí empeoraron respecto a la anterior entrega, respecto al modo carrera está bien lo de añadir creación de clubes pero se queda muy corto en cuanto aEste FIFA a sufrido un cambio claro en cuanto a Gameplay es más lento cosa que viniendo de jugar PES durante unos años me agrada, también tocaron a los porteros son más difíciles de superar y se notan más "vivos", los pases para mí empeoraron respecto a la anterior entrega, respecto al modo carrera está bien lo de añadir creación de clubes pero se queda muy corto en cuanto a personalización, un FIFA que prometía cambios como siempre pero se quedó un poco en la orilla.

    pros:
    good game play
    good improvements in career mode
    cons :
    online games are all scripted
    defense mechanism sucks and defenders and Goal Keeper
    a lot of unlicensed teams and player faces which you need to use third party patch and mods to get rid of them

    As with many others, I played a lot of FIFA when I was a kid – FIFA 2000, 2002 World Cup, 2003, 2005 World Cup, 2007, 2008, 2009, and a few pre-2000 titles. Then, I stopped playing. However, recently, I played FIFA 19 with my colleagues at work and realized I wasn't as good as I thought. So, I decided to buy FIFA 22, hoping to improve my skills since I didn't want to keep playing soAs with many others, I played a lot of FIFA when I was a kid – FIFA 2000, 2002 World Cup, 2003, 2005 World Cup, 2007, 2008, 2009, and a few pre-2000 titles. Then, I stopped playing. However, recently, I played FIFA 19 with my colleagues at work and realized I wasn't as good as I thought. So, I decided to buy FIFA 22, hoping to improve my skills since I didn't want to keep playing so poorly.

    Unfortunately, EA disappointed the PC FIFA player base by not releasing the next-gen version of the game on PC. Instead, they provided the old-gen version, like the one on PS4. The reason behind this decision was that many players have budget PCs, and releasing the next-gen version could split the player base or exclude those with low-end PCs. Just a little background information.

    I can only compare FIFA 22 to FIFA 19, as that's the last one I played, but I can say it feels and looks better. Although I'm no expert, it doesn't seem like an entirely new game, more like an updated version. It's surprising how EA manages to release essentially the same game each year, with minor tweaks and feature changes, and market it as a new game, even charging full-game prices. But that's just my opinion.

    For me, FIFA 22 was and still is a great way to pass the time, playing a match or two against random people. I mostly lose, but I try my best. xD Despite my lack of success, I have fun playing this way. I did give the career mode a shot, but it didn't captivate me enough to continue. As for the other game modes, I can't really comment since I haven't explored them much. One thing I'm sure of is that people shouldn't go the FUT (FIFA Ultimate Team) road. It feels like a pay-to-win, casino-like simulator, and you end up spending money on a game that loses significance once the next one comes out – just my two cents.

    Gameplay-wise, FIFA 22 offers a fun experience, depending on what you're looking to get out of it. However, I don't see myself buying any other FIFA anytime soon. One installment is enough for me. If the player base dies out and I can no longer find opponents to play against, so be it. Maybe I'd consider a radically-changed new FIFA game, but I won't pay for just an update.

    El sistema de jugabilidad defensivo lastra de una forma que hace menos disfrutable el juego en comparación con otros Fifa, además parece que esta versión no es next gen.

    Despite its flaws FIFA 22 manages to find the balance point between simulation and fun. Although the fact some of its modes are far from perfect, it can offer the thrills that football gives to its fans, both online and locally. The much-discussed HyperMotion does its job perfectly and justifies the need for this year's edition, in contrast with previous years. If you consider yourself a football fan, there's no need to hesitate into buying this year's edition.

    Wonderful and distasteful all at once, it entertains and fails in turns, like Frank Worthington. But I loved watching Frankie.

    After many hours spent on the next-gen version of FIFA 22 (PS5-Xbox Series) and its old-gen bent, the conclusion is there: PC, Xbox One and PS4 players will have a version with the flaws of the new generation, but cut off from its strengths.
