    This game looks good, but inside it is pure trash. Algorithms used in this game just show that EA have no respect to gamers at all. Its one complete injustice. I've played it alot, so now i can see a full picture - this game manipulates stats of ur team and ur opponents team all the time. Sometimes u have 1-2 minutes then all ur passes are incorrect, even if ur players have 90+ passing,This game looks good, but inside it is pure trash.

I've played it alot, so now i can see a full picture - this game manipulates stats of ur team and ur opponents team all the time. Sometimes u have 1-2 minutes then all ur passes are incorrect, even if ur players have 90+ passing, sometimes u cant hit a goal for 5 straight shots even if u fire from 5 meters, u'll hit the bar. At the same time ur opponent team become crazy - they can hit long shot goal from 40m with a player with 60 long shot stat. And its not just random moments, based on composure of a players or usual mistake chance - its a periods of time - not single moments, that proves its not random at all. This game have same bugs years and years. It looks like developers just didnt test it, bcoz i dont know how to explain such a dumb things in career mode, like its impossible to grow balanced young player. Even if u'll have 90 overall youngsters, they'll be total imbalanced. Some their stats will be 99, and many others (like stamina, strenght, composure, aggression etc) will be 40. And this **** repeats every year. That's just a bad game. Expand

    Literal una basura lleno de fallos le e puesto mas de 300 horas y en lugar de mejorar mi experiencia solo es mas asquerosa en especial cuando solo elijes a un jugador (para el modo carrera de jugador) ya que literal los compañeros no dan ni un paso bueno solo se quedab como inutiles y uno como Delantero tiene que ur a bajar para robar el balón por que los defensas no hacen ni una entrada

    Ive never known a game to be so consistently inconsistent. Half the time it plays ok but when the bad scripting and bad defendind AI kick in is when the game takes even the most calmest of men to a raging lunatic. Your players at tines cant even pass to a player a yard in front of him and instead pass to the heavily marked player. Did the guys at EA even play test the game?

    My 2nd and last bought FIFA ever. There's no point of buying this game over and over. The same microtransaction's and broken mechanics, trash community and too much paid content. Had a lot more fun playing FIFA 16 on PS3 for more than 2 years.

    Ultimate Team, es exactamente igual a sus antecesores, no trae novedad. Si jugaste al 17 con anterioridad y guardaste dato, el 18 te regalará 5 leyendas permanentes, único punto importante.
    En conclusión, FIFA dejó de ser novedad para tornarse en algo repetitivo y aburrido, realmente no recomiendo este título para un solo jugador, pero sí para muchos jugadores.

    Игра - парадокс, вроде ненавидишь разработчиков, за то что эти пидары пытаются из года в год вытянуть все бабки из игроков, но, сука, нет достойной альтернативы, и приходиться играть в эту помойку, потому-что любишь футбол.Игра - парадокс, вроде ненавидишь разработчиков, за то что эти пидары пытаются из года в год вытянуть все бабки из игроков, но, сука, нет достойной альтернативы, и приходиться играть в эту помойку, потому-что любишь футбол.

    The same game as FIFA 16/17. The constant pulling of money from fans, and a low-quality product. EA simply mocks football fans by saying that it’s a football simulator. In fact, it’s just an arcade game that is only indirectly related to football. After this part I went to KONAMI.

    Since 2004 I buy the new Fifa every year. Fifa 18 was seriously the worst version I have ever played. The gameplay didn't feel right and was totally out of balance as well as the AI. Because of this the game was sometimes literally unplayable.

    Просто поиграть хочешь? Ага, конечно, EA так не думают. Даже боты в карьере и то со скриптами и ганьдикапом. Ничего не меняется, протсо рескин 17 части. Позор! Если компьютер захочет выиграть он это сделает любым путем.

    Absolutely idiotic scripted game. I was played over then 1000 games in UT mode and still have a problem with unfortunately slowing players moving. Even, if i have better physical form (99) and better raitings (each player over 7-9 level more then each player of computer) in a Squad Battles. It's a script nightmare for all players

    There is no skill in this game its whoever can spend the most and gets lucky and what makes it worse is that its the same game each year except they add more scummy micro transactions

    Fifa 18, has the same formula that the others games, but adding some thing, that make better the game but no up to its price ($60).
    For me, an incomplete game. It can be an 7 if his cost be near to $20, a 9 if they take more time to the development of the game.

    - NEW ingame bugs which are too many to list in this review (e.g. "stuck in the mud" bug; can not get control over your player getting magnetized towards a loose ball - like you previously could with LT+RT for years; etcetera etcetera).

    2. Misc. Server location is poor unless you live in certain few areas of the world. I can't comrehend how EA can't afford a few more server locations to make the game playable, while FORCING us to play on their servers in certain gamemodes (including a current "professional" gig, where you have to qualify based on WL results on their servers located too far away and too busy to be playable) as opposed to PvP where my connection is often perfect.

    As a seasoned player I'm disappointed with the way the game is developing: gameplay decline + seemingly no effort put in testing and no effort in making simple things comfortable. All the attention and effort is being put in bright lights, posters, and making people slot machine addicts, sorry I mean: big Ultimate Team players. Which in itself WOULDN'T have been an issue for me, if the substance of the game wasn't neglected like it currently is. The fact that the game is getting worse (worse, and worse) than it was several years ago in terms of mechanics and variety - is absurd.

    This might be a good game as a football fan, but as someone who follows no football whatsoever I just look at this as a regular videogame. I bought it as a party game when friends are over, other than that this just fails in every way as a game.
    You don't really play, you just kind of watch scripted scenes happen that make anything you do entirely pointless. Changing games from one second

    You don't really play, you just kind of watch scripted scenes happen that make anything you do entirely pointless. Changing games from one second to the other, what annoys me the most is when my players seemingly run automatically in a different ways to what i'm inputing. Or defensive players I'm not controling literally moving out of the way to open up scoring chances for attackers. In other situations you have pretty much no control. It generally ends up feeling like not matter what you do, outcomes are changed depending on what result the game aims for. Started the journey and didn't even stick with it for more than half an hour before getting bored with it. Never played oline so I can't assess that, this is just too horrible a game for me to bother. And of course the usually complaints about just generally bad gameplay, horrendous controls and outdated looking graphics.
    I'm guessing it's all about the hardcore addicts spending massive amounts of money on the online features, never actually looked at those so that part doesn't really into my opinion of this game too much. First EA game i bought in a long while, and the last. The usual quality you can expect from them.
    Critic Reviews are once again a joke. This game is just aggressively bad.

    Don't even buy this ironically, it's lazy, it's boring, and it's shoddy.

Everything about this game is so bad it's unbelievable. The AI of the game is so stupid, you can simulate matches when winning 3-0 at 80 minute in the game and the team comes back 4-3 in these 10 minutes, the hell? There's no cutscenes or anything interesting when you sign with teams, you have to ask for a transfer and you don't get offers at end of season like you used to get, which in my opinion is 10 times more interesting instead to ask for transfer and wait for teams to hit you up (most of them are **** teams anyways and you gotta wait days to receive any offers at all). There's so much customization of look, tattoos, things you wear and overall cool stuff in The Journey but they didn't add that to career, why? Most stupid thing of all is how you develop your player, get like 85+ SUM, win 90% of matches, be the top scorer in every league and cup, and your manager will still not pick you for the matches sometimes, this sort of AI is the worst you could come up with. Like you develop a player of your own, train hard to get as much SUM as possible, do your best, you get picked for semis of world cup but not for finals, what the...? This is a complete joke, perfect example of EA going just for the money which is sad they just betray all the people that played FIFA for so long and screw up on so many ends because they have to save as much money as possible. This is the standard: "we have a brand, we have a product, copy+paste last year product, spend 1m$ budget to add some random stuff and we got a new series that's gonna give us 300m$ in sales, good". Complete joke. The commentary is so repetitive as well, it's unbelievable. I swear it's so sad how like big selling titles just be like lets spend 0.5% of our profits from last year and make another **** title and use our long standing reputation/brand to get sales anyways.

    The new defensive system in this game just ruins the whole FIFA experience for me. EA is focusing too much on realism that they forget to focus on the fun about the game. FIFA 18 is a downgrade from FIFA 17. They're getting worse with each game release. Though the graphics is better than the previous, everything else is a downgrade for me.
    Probably the worst FIFA game to date!

    By rebuilding the animation system the developers managed to significantly improve footballers’ responsiveness, which results in more fluent gameplay and lets you perform tighter maneuvers. That makes attacking a real joy, but in my opinion turned defense into frustrating chore that requires too much precision. [12/2017, p.42]

    If you're looking for a football simulation then grab a copy of PES 2018. If you want a dramatic series of events with every match you play then get FIFA 18. [Issue#194, p.75]
