    Some minor tweaks have been made. None of the bigger issues seems to be fixed - buggy referees, Kickoff-Glitch and 45min-Glitch are all still here. Along with a host of new bugs. Its disappointing that an update that cost the same as a full AAA-title introduces more bugs than it fixes.

    I think my biggest gripe with FIFA 19, lack of invention aside, is their "half-assed" attempt at making the game feel more realistic, yet again. I would appreciate more realistic collision physics, if it was actually realistic - In FIFA 19, it's nothing but a gimmick that makes the game unnecessarily frustrating, at times.

I would appreciate more realistic collision physics, if it was actually realistic - In FIFA 19, it's nothing but a gimmick that makes the game unnecessarily frustrating, at times. You can often get away with rugby fouling players in this game, just because. This new emphasis on "more realistic" take downs and first touches also feels really flawed and lacking in it's execution. I, for one, rarely see professional players insist on taking two, three touches on the ball when they receive it in stressing situations where they need to release it quickly, and even the most skillful of players are prone to awkwardly receiving the ball in such a way that it bounces away and gets intercepted by an opponent player that's not burdened by ironically unrealistic animations that you get locked to, as the player receiving the ball. Another thing is player switching when you're playing co-op. This feature should have been improved years ago, if not a decade ago. Not only have they not improved on it, but it seems to be worse in FIFA 19 compared to past iterations in the franchise. Surely, it's possible to create a different algorithm that makes this feature more intuitive and effective?

    This version of The Journey has had a few small improvements added to it, but it's probably exactly what you expected it to be like. If you like it in past games, you'll enjoy this one as well. Nothing revolutionary here, except for allowing the player to pick and play through the careers of Alex Hunter, his sister, Kim, and Danny Williams. Overall, it's a typical, new FIFA release, with largely insignificant updates outside of Ultimate Team. In terms of gameplay, my personal impression is that FIFA 19 is slightly more slow paced than FIFA 18, and slightly more frustrating to play, due to these new features that emphasize "realism", but adds little more than a larger margin for error that occurs much more frequently in the game, than it does in real life - this seems to be a trend in their realism features. As usual, the menus look slick and stylish, and the soundtrack has a few of those classic, bangers that stick to your mind after you've logged out of the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. FIFA 19 просто ужасная игра, ничего не меняется кроме нарастающей жадности EA! Игра не стоит потраченного времени и денег. Каждый год в режиме FUT проблемы которые не исправляются! Счёт в онлайн матчах 5-4, 3-4, в Канаде видимо футбол не смотрят 1-0 вполне нормальных счёт в футболе, но в FIFA 18 и FIFA 19 такого резултата в онлайн матчах вы не увидите. FIFA 19 это не игра, это обман и вытягивание денег, скрипты и голы на 45 и 90
    минутах игры. Игра очень плохая и я настоятельно не рекомендую играть в FIFA 19, покупать FIFA 19 и рекомендовать её другим. Плохая игра 0 из 10.

    FIFA 19 is just a terrible game, nothing changes except the growing greed of EA! The game is not worth the time and money spent. Every year in FUT mode problems that are not corrected! The score in online matches is 5-4, 3-4, in Canada, apparently, football does not look 1-0 completely normal in football, but in FIFA 18 and FIFA 19 such results in online matches you will not see. FIFA 19 is not a game, it's cheating and drawing money, scripts and goals for 45 and 90 minutes of the game. The game is very bad and I do not recommend playing FIFA 19, buying FIFA 19 and recommending it to others. Bad game 0 out of 10.

    Here we go again, let me start by saying I have been playing FIFA since 1994 ( yeah i know i'm old). And like a lot of others out here I used to love to play Career Mode, now i cant stand it, it reminds me of the huge mistake i made in paying €60,- for a new skin and player roster.

    Here we go again, let me start by saying I have been playing FIFA since 1994 ( yeah i know i'm old). And like a lot of others out here I used to love to play Career Mode, now i cant stand it, it reminds me of the huge mistake i made in paying €60,- for a new skin and player roster. And i can't even blame EA anymore this has been the same story since 2012.

    Yes the game-play is potentially better than last year but it is so unbelievably unbalanced that i find it a chore to play, the ball feels like a rubber bouncing ball, everyone online is an excellent blocker of passes, shots and crosses and no FIFA 19 match is complete without a bicycle kick in the top corner.

    My friend found a "new tactic" to help him defend better, he explained he doesn't select the defenders.... sooo he doesn't defend the AI defends for him. I'm sorry but that cannot be the point of a competitive video game. I don't play FUT because i don't like pay to win games nor do i like companies that manipulate children to gamble.

    Career mode is like i said not touched since FIFA 2012 with exception of the board objectives that do not really do anything and transfer cut-scenes with the same 4 generic managers in every negotiation.
    Interaction with the FIFA Career World is basically 0. Haven't done a press conference since 2013 when they were the same as they are now and completely without impact on your team.
    Can only interact with players in the form of playing them in the team or not.

    Online seasons last year was basically Online Real Madrid seasons with 90% of the players playing with OP Madrid and this year PSG has taken their place.

    Momentum is more stormy then ever. When you get to a super dominant 2-0 lead your team will stop playing basically and if your opponent scores the 2-1 before the half time break they will win 2-3 most of the time.

    Goals from kick offs are back with a vengeance, EA said they took care of it in FIFA 18 but apparently they missed it and got it back.

    The graphics look better but we can expect that every year. CL and EL are very nice additions. The new kickoff and player stats system in kick off mode are perfect for keeping the score with friends and also a nice feature.

    Overall i have got give it a 4 because i still think they game has potential to have great game-play. ( if it gets more balanced over time). But the lack of new features and the super thin Career Mode, untouched Pro player/clubs and uninteresting The Journey make this years version a better not buy until it is balanced somewhere in march 2019.

    The worst FIFA I've played since FIFA 2000. The ball is lost very easy, the way of playing is very complex. It's a game that is supposed to be for fun, but no, it's just the opposite. It's frustrating. If I could return it and get my money back, I would gladly do it. In my case, it's the last FIFA I play and buy.

Nothing?What about last seconds of a first half and added time is almost over, the opposing goalkeeper kicks the ball to the center of the court, but accidentally kicks it into his defender and the ball goes over the goalkeeper and into the net, but you know what?While the ball was mid air back to the net the ref decided its time to whistle and the goal did not count.

    Major clear issues
    1. Finishing is a disaster is way far from reality. When close to the keeper its almost impossible to score. When being from the keeper, it's hard to score. If you try to get closer to the keeper, the 60pace defender will stop a 90 pace offensive player.

    2. Passing is very very slow. One touch quick passing is difficult. I need to press the pass button way before the ball reaches a players foot in order to execute a one touch pass. Many offensive quick plays are killed off because of a player taking so much time to pass. i.e. time to receive the ball , adjust the position and then pass, rather immediately executing a one touch pass.

    3. Reaction to any command button is very slow. Eg. A player will take a second to respond to a trick command making the defender always faster to steal the ball before the offense executes the trick . Eg. delayed response to one time passing as in point (2).

    4. Bicycle kicks. Overpowered, overexecuted, unrealistic.

    5. Fast Breaks: Even if the offensive player is all alone approaching the keeper, the defender is very much likely to catch him and kill off the chance...

    Overall,
    Apart from the major issues mentioned above, Fifa 19 is more realistic than Fifa 18 but less entertaining. Fifa 18 was addictive, was fun, kept my friends and myself on our toes focused and excited during the game. Fifa 19 is slow and unentertaining.
    While Fifa has been trying to make the game as realistic as possible, it needs to keep in mind that, at the end of the day, this is a video game. It can't replicate a 90minute game in a typical 12 min video game match.
    Making finishing very hard, making scoring and creating chances as well as other initiatives in the attempt to make the game more realistic, is killing the entertainment in the game
    This is a video game designed for entertainment.
    A division 1 player should clearly look better in gameplay than a division 4-5.
    In fifa 19, the gameplay is so tight and restricted that you can hardly distinguish a division 1 player from a division 5. Again, this kills entertainment and competition between fifa players.

    PS. Its known that FIFA players would hardly admit that another FIFA player is better than them. In FIFA 19, the game is limited in its offensive options and is almost impossible to come across as the better FIFA player than your friends

    ONLY some of the problems:
    1) Gameplay is the worst. It's very unrealistic, unresponsive, lags, messed up.

    2) Ultimate Team: So much lag when playing online or on the transfer market buying players/things it's unbelievable. And it's not my connection problem, I play Call of Duty or other games with no issues online.
    In Ultimate Team, there a thing called "Input Lag", you press a button and your player doesn't do anything for 1.5 or 3 seconds, only AFTER 1.5-3 seconds your player does what you wanted.

    3) So unrealistic. Player stats are all messed up. You can take any random defender or player such as Masiello for example and he will run as fast as Cristiano Ronaldo! and then push him using physique and steal the ball.

    4) Online. A disaster! When connecting I have 5 green bars for maximum latency, but as soon as the game starts it's unbelievable lag.

    5) Often players just freeze as if the game froze, and something weird happens: Like the ball hits the bar, bounces upin the sky, comes back down to hit the bar, then sky again, comes back down to hit my goalkeeper in the head and go into the goal.

    ANYWAY there is just sooo many issues, that make this game simply unplayable, a complete disaster and embarrassment if compared to FIFA 18 or other. The game is just not fun anymore.

    EA really need to stop neglecting other game modes other than Ultimate Team, especially in the single player mode (No, The Journey is not good enough).

    I've never been the one for Ultimate Team, which really has a negative effect on me as a FIFA player. This year I have finally lost my patience with EA and they need to stop giving games a paint job and slapping a new title on them.

    Player Career mode hasn't been updated in years, The Journey is simply not good enough. There is so many things from The Journey that could be implemented into Player Career mode, but EA choose to ignore it as it doesn't make them more money.

    Another popular game mode, Pro Clubs, fails yet again to see an update.

    But that's where it ends, on the pitch where the game truly matters or to me should do it's found wanting, gameplay is unrealistic to say the least, the ball shoots around like a pinball, including hitting the post or crossbar 5 times a match if not more ,the Goalkeepers AI makes Massimo Taribi look like a world beater at times and 50/50's are about as effective as a chocolate teapot, there are so many other areas of the gameplay as well that it feels like an unfinished game (FYI I've spent about 25 hours playing this on my own and with others).

    If the above still leaves you undecided this might help, the Fifa franchise to EA sports is now quite clearly developed to be its cash cow, Ultimate Team which generates huge revenue for EA has been revamped but all other modes in my opinion have fallen to the waste side, an example of this is the career mode which has had no changes at all except everything now has a tinge of blue and the champions league music is in the game due to the new licenses.

    So in a summary, Fifa 19 is a repackaged Fifa 18 with poorer gameplay, lack of game updates especially career mode where there are none and slightly improved graphics

    . Tackling- better than 18, imo... but still leaves alot to be desired. I tend to find half the time my player will make the tackle and the ball will just end up at the feet of an opponent... this isnt desirable when your defending. Or you will just foul either or

    . The icon above the players to switch players is terrible,most times it will go to a player behind the person with the ball, useless. Or the other direction that your player is running away from the player with the ball

    . The fact your players are horribly slow at reacting and just turning,they have the turning circle of a bus

    . Your defenders cannot catch their attackers, but somehow their defenders are like the flash, and catch your attackers racing towards goal

    . Heading is terrible, most of the time, you dont get anywhere, even in a defending situation

    . Pretty much just the double standards, you will foul, and you will get carded. They will do the same thing, and nothing

    . They will kick the ball with ease, from one side of the pitch to the other. But you have no chance of doing the same thing

    Sometimes you will pull off the perfect pass, to a player in some space. Other times you will pass straight to an opponent

    . Passes tend to always go to the wrong player, you have one player running into space, and another covered with defenders, but you will pass to the one with defenders everywhere

    In short, do not buy this game.... you will get so fustrated you will smash more controllers than you wish lol

    Never played FUT before, so I decided to give it a try. Grind through the weekly challenges to get some packs, open those and realize there is not a single player you care for. rinse and repeat. Squad builder is even worse. Every reward pack I have got contains worse players, than the ones I exchanged. Disclaimer - There is less than 1 percent chance I will rate this game above 3

    Single player gameplay in Career Mode is great except it's ridiculously easy so there's really no point in playing. Online multiplayer is a total mess. The game is horribly optimized for online play. Plus people just spam exploits. FUT single player is terrible - unlike Career Mode, it's brutally difficult in a cheaty kinda way.

    Props to EA for some of the gameplay changes. The tactical system is a nice addition and the game is the best balanced between attack and defense in years. But unfortunately either single player is silly easy (in Career Mode) or not fun (FUT Squad Battles), while online play is a mess.

    Also, this is the buggiest FIFA to date.

    And they didn't do a single darn thing to Career Mode.

    Please don't reward EA for such a shoddy product. For all the crazy amounts of cash money they're raking in with FUT, the game should be better than this.

    Este es el peor juego de FIFA a la fecha. Los tiros son pésimos los pases son pésimos totalmente irreal, con chilenas al por mayor y que además 8 de cada 10 terminan en gol.

    In the normal game the player that players better wins but in fifa 19 its exacly the opposite, the game makes your players play bad and the other team op. Doenst matter if u are winning 2 or 3 to 0 because u can tell if you are going to lose, u fell the difference. Also the physics are the worst ever.

More like a randomizer. You shoot and if you are lucky the odds are in your favour.

    The main problem about this game is that 'fanboys' will buy it anyway. Every football fan buys Fifa regardless it's poor quality. That's the problem with this game. EA has no reason to change it what so ever since it's being bought by those people anyway. They make money regardless. Online packs and coins are a huge profit. One tip for those people, want a good game? Stop buying it and demand EA to change because as long as you keep buying it without thinking, they also don't care about it anymore.

    If you want to have a €60 laugh with friends on a friday night while drinking beer and rub wins in eachother faces, buy it. If you want a good game. Stop buying Fifa until EA cares about Fifa again and stops pooping out the same bad game every year.

Played 5 games of 19 and that was enough. PES feels so much better and you don't need to pay to win. Some say it's lacking content / teams / strips etc but after adding the PES Universe patch all that is solved. Yeah there is no transfer market as such but this is a positive for me as I'm not spending 80% of my time buying / selling on the app and doing mostly pointless sbc's- I'm actually playing football.

    I dont think I've ever been so frustrated with a Fifa game like I am with this one.

    Gameplay.

    Well where do we begin? Defending is difficult, I found that players simply walked through my midfield despite my efforts to make plug up any holes. At any stage where its more effective to simply let the AI do the defending for you is bad news.

    Attacking is also equally difficult largely in part to changes in pace mechanics and passing mechanics which is a double edged sword. I get nerfing pace but in reality if I slip a through ball to a 90 odd pace player I do not expect him to be caught as easily as they will be caught in this game.

    Passing is a frustrating affair also with how pressure works in this game (It actually does work and you will be pressed hard) any erroneous pass will result in devastating counter attacks but while most of the time it was mostly my error, the trapping and lack of urgency when moving the ball quickly just makes simple A passes lead to the opponent countering.

    Creating chances is harder also but the lack of movement honestly kills me at times when trying to maintain possession you will have to keep the ball for an extraordinary amount of time before somehow one of the players decides to make a run through a defence to set up an opportunity. There's just no real flow.

    Deflections and bounces are varying degrees of unfair from mildly frustrating to controller snapping rageaholic. Whenever attempting some form of tackle the ball just bounces around and will end up in a dangerous position and it makes no sense, I hate the fact we have to charge a tackle, just tackle the ball and get it away not let it bounce several times and the opponents forward simply just rugby charge through my defenders to get the ball and score. That is not football.

    Ultimately the reviews before you speak for themselves. The lack of changes to Pro Clubs and Career Mode is shambolic and I completely agree on that front but I have to talk gameplay wise and its frustrating.

    Thats all it is, its frustrating you will get frustrated to no end because every time you lose you will find several key moments where you ask yourself "What more could I of done?" and 9/10 the answer is nothing, its just bad luck and thats not good.

    I mean the fact that this will be a eSports game is laughable.

    The game seems too random and anybody can win,ping ponged gameplay being the reason for it mainly online, AI still dumb, making players react faster doesnt mean they are smarter, defending seems clunky in some online games feel unreactive to anything even when the opposing players are moving slow
    Even though EA made always a good job on the content they add, they never actually made a good football game in this generation in my opinion.
    If you feel like you have no actual control over a game why would you be playin it right?
    Offline is playable but not fun anymore because they did nothing to give us a better career mode
    Overall what they did was give some additions like they timed shot and better animations, nothing more script still on and stronger than ever since FIFA 15.
    I recommend EA to put some work into the gameplay and career mode cause the online content is already perfect, FIFA 19 just shows that many people stopped buying copies because of FIFA 18.

    To be fair, I have noticed that for the most part game play in demo mode and offline mode do seem better than online mode. I think there is something broken in their online modes, which is what everyone plays for the most part.

    19 years, the advancement from EA Sports Games '00 to '19 is embarrassing. Even modes like "franchise" or "gm" have actually reduced features in recent releases.

    EA is successful based on licensing rights and pay to play gimmicks like Ultimate Team (which can be addictive). EA is not successful because of game play, they are successful in spite of poor game play.

    After spending a lot of money and time building up my team in FUT 19, only to experience a lack of consistency from game to game in how my top rated players behave and react on the pitch, all I can do is hang my head in shame that I was suckered into buying another EA game.

    And it's not a lack of chemistry or fitness or lag. It's likely due to FUT handicapping or something like that which creates the inconsistent experience. Other posters have noted that when playing against the AI in more difficult modes the AI doesn't get smarter, the game makes your players worse, it decreases your players stats and ability.

    Simply put, games should be fun to play. EA Sports Games are not. I'll be exchanging FIFA 19 today for any game that is not developed by EA.

    This game has to be the worst competitive game to ever exist on planet earth. If you play career mode or Pro clubs, just forget it. Pro clubs and career mode has been forgotten for many, many years and they don't want to improve it because Ultimate Team makes then billions and billions.

    Fifa 19 is also heavy pay to win, this means that players can buy themselves better players for real money that perform better. If you try to play FUT Champions without a expensive team you will have the worst experience possible, coming up against multi million coin teams that make your players fumble the easiest ball and miss the easiest of chances, not only does expensive teams perform better than cheap teams, but the expensive teams also make your team play worse. Playing against a more expensive team is like playing chess vs a player that has twice as many pieces as you and you only have one turn every round while the opponent has two.

    Fifa is basically a **** game! Gaming has been my passion since I was 7 years old, I am now 34 and I will recommend a few PC games that is online and competitive, these games will make Fifa feel like it crapped its own pants.

    Recommended: Dota 2, CS:GO, LOL. Basically any online competitive game is better than Fifa, Fifa is the worst competitive game to ever exist, I am even doubting myself calling it a competitive game, how can a competitive game be pay to win? Who would take Chess serious if one player had 5 extra pieces than the opponent?

    Do yourself a favour and dont waste money on it. If you absolutely have to, dont get the download version, get it retail and sell it a few months before Fifa 20 comes out.

    It's only a DLC with features changes who nobody ask for. Graphics are poor yet, with no changes. I love 2vs2 cooperative mode. The last year EA removed cups and you can't see your thropies with no reason to remove it. The new licences looks like only a commercial strategy for taking advantage of Konami, but it doesn't for giving a better experience to its customers.

    I also recommend watching the movie Bohemian Rhapsody, which will be released soon, five times, rather than buying FIFA 19.
    It is important for football to be a team based on modern football based on Pep Guardiola, Johan Cruyff, and Arrigo Sacchi, with organizational pressure and control of game tempo.
    But what matters to EA GAMES is the ability of every single player card.

    Where on earth are team moves?
     
    EA always makes a good demo game, and the standard edition is a scam that makes games like this before (eg FIFA 19 = FIFA 18).

    The FIFA series is a game of making money with licenses.

    In Asia, there is a game called FIFA Online. If you can play FIFA Online games, I recommend FIFA Online rather than FIFA 19.
    (Because FIFA 19 and FIFA Online are equally gambling games but FIFA Online is free game !!!!)

    As a result, I do not enjoy playing football game called FIFA 19 any more and enjoy watching real football.

    Everyone! Instead of enjoying FIFA 19, let's have a look at the game and player of your favorite football team once more!

    The real football is in the stadium, not on the cheap monitor!

    The same scenario in almost every game when you are playing on keyboard vs joystick players. You are leading with 1-2 goals -> your attack stops playing -> on 75min your defence stops playing -> joystick player easily scores 2 goals -> the match lost. That's unbearable.

Champions League license has gone wasted - everything in the Champions League mode looks pathetic and underwhelming. It really seems that EA has acquired the license just to kick Konami out of the football video game market. Disappointed by how EA still only focuses on FUT - the number of cards being released since launch of the game is just ridiculously high and totally disgusted by it. It is very likely that you will be up against a team that is full of POTM, SBC, legends, flashbacks, swap items (seriously?? flashbacks?? swap items??) etc etc on FUT. FUT is simply not a mode about skills but a mode you pay to win. I can only say EA is EXTREMELY CREATIVE when it comes to milking players' money. Online mode feels really inconsistent (here comes the old scripting/momentum issue) - with the same team of players, sometimes they all play like Messi and Ronaldo, another day they might be as sluggish as an oil tanker (sorry oil tankers). I doubt FIFA would impress any player at all and the critics ratings are just a joke. 100% would not recommend anyone buying this game, even if it's on sale.

    With initial excitement having died down a few months after the game's release, FIFA 19 stands exposed for what it is: another recycled iteration of a franchise that sorely needs refreshing. Both off the pitch and on it, FIFA 19 is a hollow experience, yet another broken promise and a slap in the face of what we have come to expect from good game development. To truly compete in the gaming arena, FIFA must lace its boots and pull up its socks if it is to achieve what it too lazily sets out to each year.
