    The gameplay is horribly unrealistic. There seems to be no effort in anything other then FUT, which, however, seems like a Volta mode with 11 players.

EA is really making an effort in destroying this game, for what it clearly has considerable competence. Expand

    Apart from being the same game to previous installments, the game suffers from terrible scripting and playing it is just not fun. Bare bones career mode and money grabbing loot chests. No thanks

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s the worst fifa hands down. The fact I had to make a metacritic account just sums up how bad this game is. Passing is so much worse than Fifa 20. If you thought that was bad the skill gap is even more non existent this year. Clearly the only way people can get change from this game is to stop playing the game stop listening to Fifa content creators and stop buying Fifa points. £60 down the drain on this game luckily I didn’t get any Fifa points since 2016 cause I know they’re a scam.

    Fifa over the years has became a cash grab game.. Nothing changes and feels like a copy and paste of fifa 20.. EA know people will be stupid enough to buy it so they keep making them anyway.. I have friends that keep saying every year how bad the game is but then go on and say they will be getting the new one.. Mainly for FUT..

    Offenders Do not Attacke or even walk towards the goal. Defenders Do not defend. Every second Ball is landing at the opponent.

    Step on the pitch: yellow card
    Touch the Ball: red card

    Every shot is getting blockt by the OP defense.

    Please give us a fifa 2001 Remake. Even that would be better than this cancer of a "football simulation"

    AI cheats as when playing vs Computer the program controls more players at the same time but there is no way for the player to control more than 3 at the same time.

    I believe NO ONE at EA ever watched a football game because pressing for them is just running forward, uncontrolled players will ignore the ball even if it's in front of them while your opponent(if AI controlled) will have 4 different players rushing to the ball.

    It's the same old trick from EA: adding a couple of features and changing values of the players.
    Until someone gets hurt, or worse, EA will probably keep going this way for years... people go mental for much less than what this game does (especially as there are prizes, tournaments and a few hundred thousands pounds every months in tournament prizes out there)... sooner or later someone will be triggered by something and someone will pay the price because of Fifa

    Gameplay this year is absolutely ridiculous. The defenders now seem to be stupid and can't track runners. You have to manually flick your way round the defenders to the one u want to control and hope that you are still in time. Everyone relies on the through ball and pace which is unstoppable now. Early games online have them ending like 5-6, 6-8, 7-5. Everyone is just trying to outscore each other. After some practice in defending, you can keep the score down but it's really not realistic as the games are still like ping pong games and you just want to defend and counter all the time.

    Against the CPU, on World Class, games are ending 8-0 or 9-0. You just have to exploit the through balls, and contain the CPU.

    It's not even a good simulation of the beautiful game now. It's a ping pong game of high scores.

    I don't even want to talk about micro transactions.

    Graphics - 1 (Low low score as nothing has changed for many years)
    Gameplay - 1 (Ping Pong game. who can finish better wins)

    Audio is good but nothing groundbreaking.

    There are a lot of reasons why I think the game is bad, but I don't think I have enough space here to say them all, so, I'm gonna tell you only a few of them.

    First reason might be that it's almost the same game as FIFA 20. It's basically 90% FIFA 20. The only real change is in Career Mode, which is not even that big, and it clearly does not make the mode great, it might not be better
    There are a lot of reasons why I think the game is bad, but I don't think I have enough space here to say them all, so, I'm gonna tell you only a few of them.

    First reason might be that it's almost the same game as FIFA 20. It's basically 90% FIFA 20. The only real change is in Career Mode, which is not even that big, and it clearly does not make the mode great, it might not be better then the previous one. The real big change is only the training system, which might become quite annoying after some time because you literally have to simulate it every time, why couldn't it play automatically? I mean I don't want to stop every other day just to simulate it.

    Another reason, might be the biggest, is Ultimate Team. I know is just a game mode and I don't have to play it, but it's the main mode and it should be good, right? Well, in EA's opinion, not really, it's enough to make money. Well, us, the player would really like to be able to enjoy it, it would be rally nice, I mean, if EA were capable to create a great game in the past, why couldn't they now? Because they don't want to, because they know people would buy it anyway. So, they don't really care if the gameplay is not enjoyable. The main reason why the gameplay is **** is the script, which we don't have a proof it exists, but we all know it does, and of there are 2 reasons it exists. First of all, they want this game to be played a lot, just like Overwatch, League of Legends, Counter Strike and all those kind of games, so they want you to have a reason to play again, that's why they make you lose, to have a reason to keep playing, to win and to grind, that's why a lot of players have a record which is about 50-50 because that's what they want, mediocre players to keep playing, and with that, you might be stuck in a division, just like me, today I'm in division 7, tomorrow 6, and in a couple days 7 again, because I win 5, and I don't just win, I destroy guys with much better teams, and then, tomorrow I get beaten like 5-0 with 70% possession and against a gold non-rare team, and that's extremely frustrating. The other reason why if you change the team you might be playing good for a few matches, is because they want you to lose after a while, so you will think the team is the problem and you will buy packs, because this game is **** PAY TO WIN. And, unfortunately, I think the problem is only about 60% percent EA's fault, and I regret to say it, but the community is a problem too, I mean, if you wanna change something, don't play the game they want you to play, they just want you to play only those OP players and be sweaty AF, even in friendlies, I mean why the **** would you include skill base matchmaking in friendlies ffs, and a match limit, in FRIENDLIES, which is supposed to be the game mode which should note be sweaty, it should be friendly, but luckily, not all friendlies have a match limit, so why couldn't you, the player, help the others in those matches? Instead of being sweaty and wanting to win no matter what, do the golden goal rule, or at least just let them score the goals, and after that you could play it the way you want. And the other problem is the guys that are buying FIFA points, they break the game, please, if you ever said that the game is **** because it's pay to win but you bought FIFA points, then you are part pf the problem, because even you probably didn't buy a big amount and you say it didn't matter because it was just like 20$, that's what other million people say just like you, and if a million people gave 20$ thinking that is not a really big amount and it wouldn't change anything, well let me tell you that it did, because that's a lot of money. And I get that you say that the streamers are the ones that breaks the game because they spend thousand of dollars on FIFA points, and I agree, but still, we, the community, might make a difference. So, if you lose, at least try to not get frustrated, because it might not actually be your fault.

    Another problem with the community are the toxic players. Some of the celebrations are so **** annoying, especially when Mbappé scores, because 90% of the times, the goal was not scored because your opponent is good, but because Mbappé is **** OP.

    Another reasons are the other game modes, and the problem is that EA don't **** care about them. Seasons used to be so much fun back in the game, and now are playing maximum 1000 players, it's **** dead. Pro clubs might be the only mode I had fun playing, but guess what, EA doesn't care about it, so it's **** hidden in the online section, which no one cares about, and it haven't been improved in YEARS. It might be the best game mode, if more people played it, or if constant updates were brought. I mean look at 2K, their main NBA game mode is MyPlayer, which is basically 2K's pro clubs mode, but it's actually made good, or at least better than pro clubs, which has so much potential.

    Don't buy FIFA.

    Servers already went down after 2 weeks. All issues and bugs the community have been submitting to support since FIFA 19 and 20 are still here and some other weirder ones have been added.
    I wasn't expecting improvements since EA doesn't give real consideration to the community and is just focused on making money with a game where all is focused on attacks to sell more cheated cards on FUT.
    But it's still a pity they didn't even improve severs which is the least. As it stands, they're won't be any significant changement on PS5 as this current gameplay on PS4 is the basis of what they will provide on next gen PS5.

The UT experience is bad, gambling at its best. The gameplay is broken, defending is super hard, like never before, matches often end up with 5 goals at least. Tactics seems to have no effect many times in a match. Skills movements are op, you can literally take on the entire team with a high skills player like neymar. No new game modes, Volta is **** If you like playing with your friends you can buy it when there are offers, no way is worth it paying 60 bucks for it. Expand

    Wow, it could be soo cool.
    I am only looking at the Ultimate Team mode here. First of all: If you pay real money to buy packs, you are making a big mistake. Why is that ? Because you „Pay-to-loose“ , or in other words : The Fifa Casino always wins. Stats, prices and gameplay varies from patch to patch making you wanna pay more and more with questionable results.

Because you „Pay-to-loose“ , or in other words : The Fifa Casino always wins. Stats, prices and gameplay varies from patch to patch making you wanna pay more and more with questionable results.
    The gameplay started to be nice, but later on, there comes a lot of patches, making it harder to get along within the game. Just a watch a couple of videos and depending on the latest patches, you will see some laws of physics bending bugs like balls-through-bodies or having your defenders running away from a ball, they most definitely would have intercepted. Whats my point ? It’s not a football / Fussball / Soccer simulation if I am not in control of the action. Will this improve over time ? Probably , but I really wonder if the developers want you to pay a lot or if they want to deliver an impressive simulation. Time will tell.

    There are some things though, that I like about the game and it is the amount of content and special cards I could get in the first three moth of playing. But I beg you , if you love football simulations as much as I do, don’t spend to much money. I had the best season ever without spending cash extra, and it made the experience much easier for me to know that I can proceed in the game without paying. But until Fifa decides , that this game is about skills rather then it being a rail-simulation, we just gotta wait and see. Or maybe we take a glance on a famous Japanese company who came up with a cool simulation a couple of years ago.

    Literally the worst game I’ve ever played in my life. Lifelong futbol fan and pretty annoyed at the fact this is just all about kickball. Passing is nonexistent, defending is awful, everyone does the same thing and if you don’t as well you have zero success. Also EA prays on your mental health and instead of making a good product they pile on research to make you addicted and spend money.Literally the worst game I’ve ever played in my life.

    The only good thing is the squad update, that's all there is. Could have been a patch for fifa 20, except this is not fifa anymore it is PES from the Playstation 2 era, arcade football game. Defender are useless even if you tried as hard as you can, goalkeepers are non existent, everyone can score goal, finishing doesn't matter anyone. Just use fast players run pass defender and score.The only good thing is the squad update, that's all there is.

    Anything that goes in the air is almost impossible to defend. The bots are extremely slow and you can't play like that. DEFENDING IS JUST IMPOSSIBLE. you have to score 5 goals a match in order to properly win a game

Some games my players would miss every shot (even if i checked the replay and saw i aimed right), so I'd restart the game and my shots would go in. Other types of games are when the opposition is super high pressing, or games where every almost pass is missplaced. So those kinds of pre-determinded games happened sometimes and when they did i restarted to fix it.
    Once I got to premier league I had just won the Super Cup against Juventus 3-1, challenging match but we outplayed them. I then meet Fullham and Everton in the first matches of the premier league, and I get completely destroyed, when i tell my players to sprint they jog, every bounce goes to opposing player and my players are suddenly playing extremely poorly, against Fullham. So there seems to be some kind of factors affecting my players since it's a (premier) league game even if it's against (much) worse opposition than what I'd normally face. This was very, very, disappointing since i finally got in to the premier league and 5 games in I didn't see any point continuing and removed the 200+ match save that I'd been playing on for a long time. The scripting makes this game unplayable, at least against AI. I wish it was a setting I could turn off so that my players play like they can and my opposition is better instead of that my players are suddenly awful.

    Game for fans who either need to work online at FUT every day, or instead want to try a modified career mode, which is starting to really look like Football Manager. Otherwise, it's a decent update for the full price. [Issue#307]

    The FIFA series desperately needs a fresh start. Right now, it relies mainly on the Ultimate Team mode and marketing, while going around in circles. Instead of leaping into the future, FIFA 21 takes half a step forward and two steps sideways in an attempt to differentiate itself from its predecessor well enough to rationalize spending money. If you already own FIFA 20 and are not addicted to Ultimate Team, you can sit this one out. [12/2020, p.44]

    A consummate package of shooting, slide tackling and swearing, but with some familiar current-gen frustrations. The saving grace could be FIFA 21’s free PS5 upgrade. [Issue#182, p.137]
