    It's more FIFA again, if you aren't bored of it yet then you might like it but there's very few gameplay updates. If you told me it was FIFA 20 i'd believe it.

    Probably the most annoying part is how bad some players still look, there's barely any updates each year but still so many players look nothing like they should.

    I was hoping that FIFA 21 would be the title to get me excited about next gen, about getting PS5 or new Xbox but it's far from. Its minimal, the story mode has been pretty much removed (yeah Volta is a cheap trick and a joke). The changes in Manager mode probably took a week for some junior designer to come up with. The menus are sad, boring and uninspiring, depressing almost. There is the excitement of soccer, the motion, the action and dynamic energy of players? So much missed opportunity. I am guessing and hoping its all due to little investment from EA in developing this game rather than skill of individuals working on the game. The game is a good replication of how football is experienced during this pandemic, there are some great moments of good football, buy overall its pretty lifeless and the energy is missing.    … Expand

    Goalkeepers are very very very bad, and not stopping much tbh. Since scoring goals is a big part of football... and goalkeepers are not stopping any shots in the penalty area, this is breaking the game and makes a simple match a complete non-sense goal fest. Getting scores like 8-6, 7-0 etc on 4-min half time.

    Giving a 2 because they did do some good enhancements in the career mode. But    Goalkeepers are very very very bad, and not stopping much tbh.

    Zamanına göre oynadığım en kötü fifa oyunu. Defans yapamıyorsunuz, topa hiçbir şekilde müdahale edemiyorsunuz, rakip oyuncuya omuz koyamıyorsunuz. Kaleciyle bile rakip kaleye kadar gitmek çok kolay. Tek güzel yanı aşırtmalar çok hoş olmuş. Onun dışında oynanacak gibi değil.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Par où commencer, déjà c'est clairement pas FIFA 20, c'est pire...
    FIFA 20 durant le mois d'octobre 2019 était vraiment bien calibré entre l'attaque et la défense il y avait un jeu bien réalisé et équilibré dans lequel on pouvait prendre du plaisir.... MAIS!

    Suite aux pleurnichards venant des anglais qui s'en sortaient pas, le jeu a subit une MaJ détruisant tout le gameplay mis en place dans le but de satisfaire les english wales (et ouais c'est l'argent qui drive le gameplay) du coup on a eu un jeu avec une vitesse de jeu augmentée, tellement que le GameEngine ne suit même pas, on peut le constater en regardant les animations des joueurs qui glissent sur le terrain, symptomatique que l'animation est trop longue par rapport à la vitesse du jeu, du coup l'animation est accélérée ou n'a pas le temps d'être jouée.

    Pourquoi tout ce bla-bla, tout simplement parce que FIFA 21 hérite de tout çà, ce n'est plus un jeu de football. Ça fait 3 années que c'est de pire en pire, le dernier jeu vraiment bien étant le 17. Avec cet opus le jeu est méga speed et full arcade (tu tires dos au but, t'inquiète le joueur va faire un 180° en calant une lucarne, ce n'est qu'un exemple parmi tant d'autres...). Le moteur de jeu gérant la physique est le même et commence à être à bout souffle, les joueurs patinent sur le terrain, font des dingueries avec la balle aimantée à leurs pieds... bref ils ont pas sorti de démo, on comprend mieux pourquoi. J'ai très peu d'espoir pour la version next gen, dev un nouveau moteur de jeu prend du temps (minimum 2 ans).
    Testez-le en EA access (c'est 4€ versus 50€), 10h c'est amplement suffisant pour se rendre compte de la nullité de cet opus.

Somehow the most important aspect of their game remains just as broken as it was when i played FIFA 19.

Consistently awful connection despite getting between 20-60 ping, clueless AI and absurd animations, and even a glitch that forced me to forfeit a game and lose my match bonus. This is all aside from the fact that EA is a ruthless, greedy company with no desire to make good video games. For a game that used to be so popular, even among people who didn't care about the pro leagues, there's literally no hype around it anymore. This game is made for little kids that have never played any other video game, anyone else would have high enough expectations to know this game isn't worth touching.

    CM finally got a decent upgrade, but it's still so far off from being a solid mode. Two thirds of the additions over the last decade have been horrible, so each year half the game is just fixing the broken stuff introduced in the game from a previous year.

    FUT is a toxic and exploitative game mode that is only rewarding if either you have boat loads of time to trade in the market or if you're willing to spend money on packs. And the game modes aren't even that much fun.

Defending is awful, it's RNG, you tackle someone, but you either win the battle or you lose it. I had Inaki Williams who has 90+ pace, but somehow Alderweireld with 60 pace caught up with him, pushed him off the ball, and lobbed a 50 yard pass over the top to Bale who smashes it in with his right foot from the edge of the box (Bale has 2 star weak foot).

    The only positive from this game is Career Mode. Many good changes which makes career mode enjoyable, from training your players separately, Simulating matches which allows you to watch without having to play, official licenses for the Champions League and Europa League. However, I don't think Career Mode is enough to spend a minimum of £60 on the game.

    Overall, don't buy this game. EA do the same every year. They will make one patch in a week or so, make the game even worse, then kill it off by introducing insane microtransactions and promote gambling non stop.    … Expand

    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.

    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.

Questo gioco è la palese e più recente dimostrazione di quanto la EA sia il male dei videogiochi, una casa che produce una spazzature di gioco come FIFA 21 (identico al 20, ma non c'erano dubbi a riguardo). Hanno sbagliato su tutta la linea: sempre proposto una demo prima dell'uscita annuale, questo anno- magicamente- non viene proposta ma anzi se si vuole provare questa schifezza di "copy&paste" è necessario pagare un'ignominiosa tassa di 4 euro. La vergogna maggiore però sta nel gameplay sul quale mi limiterò a portare un semplice, ma efficace dato personale: da FIFA 15 (anno in cui ho iniziato a giocare, malauguratamente, al FUT) non mi era mai capitato prima di avere un rateo W/L di 14/50, mai in vita mia. Hanno provato ad abbindolare la gente proponendo una personalizzazione infantile e ridicola degli stadi, dimenticandosi però che il gioco è nel campo, non sugli spalti. Onestamente, per concludere, credo che le aziende interpellate nel valutare questo schifo, aborto mancato, prodotto dalla EA, abbiano ricevuto qualche compenso o altrimenti abbiano giocato ad un'altra versione di questo gioco, non ancora disponibile al pubblico, rimarrò col beneficio del dubbio anche se in cuor mio conosco già la risposta. Se negli ultimi anni FIFA arrancava ed era più simile ad una creatura moribonda che un gioco divertente, posso concludere in estrema sicurezza che FIFA 21 sia la definitiva pietra tombale su un gioco ormai morto da tempo e una ulteriore conferma della incapacità lavorativa della EA, che IMHO faceva schifo da ben prima. Spero vivamente che un'azienda così ottusa e criminale (il pay-to-win a mio avviso è un sistema al pari del gioco d'azzardo e per tale motivo proibito) trovi presto un epilogo rapido. Quando quel momento arriverà solo allora i videogiocatori potranno sperare in un videogame fatto da gente che capisca non solo di videogame, ma anche e soprattutto di calcio. La mia misura è colma e se potessi richiedere il rimborso per un contenuto digitale del genere, giuro che lo farei.… Expand

It feels like in this company works artists and no any developers. They paint new decorations, badges, card designs, pack designs and totally forgot about adequate game mechanics.
    The main reason of my 3 times burned butt is the ea logic: for example you have mainstream game mode fut, so you have to do every single part of it that gamers want to play it more and more. But what we have here? They merged weekend champions league with division rivals games. So we have to choose what to do play 30 games of dr and 30 games of wl in 3 days because it is the only option to take all benefits from these mods or choose between these modes which one will use 30 point profit games. Seriously? I’ve just started
    What the football team is? 11 players that participate in the derby? Nah it’s just 10. There is no goalkeeper in there. These dumbasses forgot to take him hands and any quite reason to play normally. THIS POSITION SUCKS EA! Did you see how funny these **** is trying to save any post shots or ... f&ck they can’t save anything.
    Let’s move on
    These players have stats. Another applauses to artists. These digits means nothing, literally. You can see how 99 long shot addicted player hit the 4th post in the game and meanwhile some broken bastard with 50 shooting lay down the ball from 20m right in your cheek. Or when slow player overrun your brand new pacey player. Riiiight.
    Also take this **** burger of digits, combine it with dumb ai sauce and you will feel that you have never ever eat this **** till your hears. Ai is so dumb that when the ball slightly walked near the player... he passed this player. No any reaction attempts, it does nothing, no matter 94 player or 77, dumb as f0ck.

    Special cards - is like buff to any current card but it is not an option for defenders, a little bit less for midfielders and in priority for strikers. Why? Because of ea logic again? What strikers makes the greatest? Score a goal. And that logic ends here. To be the greatest defender in this game and get inform player must score in real game? No matter how awesome he performs in defence, nope, no 2 goals - no cards. Jeez, it is like if strikers get inform for how much it saves in the square    … Expand

    I don’t have the game but I agree. Don’t know what to put to get to 75 characters but have a nice day.

    This game would be fine if it were exactly the same as FIFA 20 with continued access to roster updates and new players.

    Somehow, EA has made the gameplay much worse. Defense is useless and positioning/technique doesn't matter. Goaltending is even worse and goalies will not make simple stops. Offsides and foul calls are clearly missed in every single game.

    Worst of all, online play is extremely laggy. Even with a fast connection, expect lag spikes and players to jump around the field. I've simply gone back to playing FIFA 20 until they get the kinks worked out on 21. Don't bother trying to play it in itscurrent state.    … Expand

    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]

If you already own FIFA 20 and are not addicted to Ultimate Team, you can sit this one out. [12/2020, p.44]
