    Disclaimer, I have played mostly on PC but If I'm being honest the difference between next gen and past gen aren't really that noticeable.

    Straight to the elephant in the room, If you're buying this without expecting scripting of any kind you best find another football game. Scripting still exists and yes its still unfair as ever and ruining the game. Yes, EA deny this but do
    Disclaimer, I have played mostly on PC but If I'm being honest the difference between next gen and past gen aren't really that noticeable.

    Straight to the elephant in the room, If you're buying this without expecting scripting of any kind you best find another football game. Scripting still exists and yes its still unfair as ever and ruining the game. Yes, EA deny this but do politicians lie? EA aren't transparent, they lie we all know this and this game is just riddled with this rubbish which ruins it. I want to take a moment to compare the scripting to SBMM, whilst I'm not entirely against SBMM because it is something which tries to match people on an equal skill level, the scripting of EA's Fifa nerfs players stats, nerfs the AI's ability upon holding position to give the opposition an easy attempt to score. This is basically ruining any notion of this game being competitive, the best don't always win because this game decides who it wants to have a big advantage. Like past Fifa's often you'll find its not your fault that you concede, whilst its not me saying I'm incapable of making a mistake it's just a good portion of the time the AI will decide what will happen.

    Another issue to point out is crossplay still not existing, those playing from Stadia, Xbox, Playstation and PC the overwhelming majority are using you guessed it a controller. There is no unfair advantage and there is no reason to not have a crossplay function to make the playerbase larger. For example, last time I bothered playing seasons it told me that only 88 people were online. That is laughably dead and that follows a trend with past Fifa's purchased on the PC.

    Gameplay wise Fifa this year does seem a little bit more open on the attack end, I'm finding myself scoring more freely. Making passes to attacking last quarter possible and 'tramp' goals exist. Yet, here is another disclaimer don't take any of this early review for granted because I suspect EA will update this game to the point of nerfing most of this and changing an early version of the game to something potentially frustrating.

    Graphically the game is as you'd expect, it's an old build so its nothing improved but i's still passable graphics don't make a good game. Music wise, it's the same old trash. Its main selling point is the arcade card gambling simulator in FUT which has ZERO accuracy on delivering a footballing experience.

    Career mode is the same as last year, star faces added in are at the usual bare minimum. Barely any attention to other leagues has been all but typically followed with no attention to smaller leagues and once again only attention to the big leagues. It's something which evidently does ruin the immersion and the lack of mod support to perhaps add faces in really is killing the experience.

    In summary, I would like to say that this game doesn't feel much more than a roster update whilst charging you $70, It's a very hard sell. If you're just looking to play a game which delivers a footballing sim I would avoid this game and stick to PES. The game delivers with nothing new and I don't think anything will ever change so long as FUT exists which is pretty much the same thing year in and out as well.

If you get a game, none of your passes go through, flair doesn't work, every single pass is a frustrating dead end. I'm a pretty good fifa player usually but this shower of crap is beyond belief. All exacerbated by not getting into games regularly enough. EA if your going to charge 70 pounds please make sure the game works or is fun. As it is I am on the brink of bringing a class action lawsuits against you for releasing a product not fit for purpose. To anyone thinking of buying this please I emplore you don't touch it with a bargepole.

    It has the usual child exploitation gambling system known as ultimate team. EA are disgusting their products are truly awful corporate nightmares. Trust me avoid at all costs.

    Once again, career mode (manager mode) players have been neglected. It's 95% the same as last year. Here's what's new:

    1. Some new hairstyles and a new beard to customize your manager with. (There's no new clothing though. Exactly the same options as last year).

    2. More realistic looking randomly generated players. In the past fake players looked waxy and weird to say the least. Some of them still do, but some of the fake players in the Youth Academy look like real people with improved skin and hair textures on PS5. This makes growing young players and integrating them into the First Team more enjoyable.

    3. Some new cutscenes during transfer negotiations. Also instead of having to "hold X to skip" dialogue, you can now just tap X (or A on Xbox) to skip most dialogue. This speeds up the transfer negotiation cutscenes. In settings you can also disable "Hold X to skip" entirely from the career mode so you can skip pre-match cutscenes with a button tap rather than a button hold.

    4. A few new objectives like "reduce player wages by £150,000 a week" or "keep salary growth under 15%" and things similar. But as with previous FIFAs, some objectives are ridiculously hard or don't register such as "sign a veteran player" which is hit and miss.

    5. Players seem to be less complaintive. Henderson is an "Important" player, but I've barely played him. I completed a full first season without him complaining about his game time. I could be wrong - this is my first career save - but there seems to be less "boss I need to play more" emails, although you do get emails about other subjects like contracts etc.

    For Manager Career Mode specifically, that's about it. Everything else is the same. Same layout, same tiles and menus, just re-skinned. As for the gameplay (offline. I don't play FUT) - people are calling it more realistic and less arcade-y. I don't know what's realistic about finding it easier to score a banger from 25/30 yards than to get in the box.

    But yeah, the game is slower. The CPU is more difficult. I could score 5 - 10 goals easily on Legendary difficulty in FIFA 21. This game...usually 3 or less. There's less chances, shots and goals which is why a lot of early players have resorted to long range shooting to score. On average I'm getting about 4 or 5 clear cut chances a game, if that. And with the newly improved keepers I put maybe 2 or 3 away.

    To enjoy Career Mode on Legendary or Ultimate difficulty, you have to come to terms with FIFA no longer being a casual experience. Scoring is harder, defending is harder, holding possession is harder, penetrating defences...I could go on. If you can accept it as being more like real football where results are often marginal, then career mode will feel less like a chore and you may even start to like the unpredictability of a season.

    My biggest gripe with the gameplay is the player switching. A defender will be a yard away from the attacking player, I press L1 or flick RS to switch player, and it will jump to someone 10 yards away despite there being a defender literally right next to the attacker. Conceding last minute goals like that is beyond infuriating. I was seriously close to dashing the controller at my new OLED. So if you're reading this and you're at that stage, I feel you. And if you haven't got the game yet, you will get to that stage.

    But after 2 seasons and dozens of hours of getting to know the game (I've been playing non stop since last week), I'm now controlling scorelines more. I still just lost 3 - 1 to Spurs, got knocked out of the Carabao Cup and the Champions League, but I'm starting to like that. You can no longer just blitz the season beating everyone by 6 - 0 and winning the quadruple.

    Overall, aside from the atrotious player switching and the park-the-bus CPU (which I hope EA will patch, or I could just turn the difficulty down), the gameplay just about gets a thumbs up from me. For Career Mode specifically, it's a massive disappointment. You're spending £69.99 on updated kits, re-skinned menus and some new face scans.

Instead, in my company, they spend millions and millions on marketing department. People come and play, then they complain it's different from the ads. Guess what? Fifa is doing that!

    Every year they come up with great videos to tell you how the new AI is a gaming revolution, and you'll have an experience you have never had before. BS! That's the same game and the AI is just as stupid as the previous games. You'll be on rage, because you know what exactly your opponent will do and you still cannot avoid it! They do a long pass, you select your defender to follow, but they do not run, they freeze, they watch your opponent getting one-on-one with your goal keeper.

    My brother bought this again, and I am super pissed about it. This game will never change, this game will never be fun anymore, because they make too much money to risk a change. RIP Fifa.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I remembered the time when I was blown away by the technology and aesthetic of Fifa 97 followed by 98 with its World Cup edition. I rekindled my interest and went for their 2007, took a hiatus and returned for 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2021. I enjoyed 2016 and 2017 since the introduction of Pro Clubs. It got a tad jaded for me for 2018 but insist on getting 2019 - on sale - the following year. It was okay bit still lacking something i can't seem to fathom. That led me to skip 2020 but got 2021 on sale the following year on June 2021. We are here again at the pinnacle of the season where EA would usually releaseits next installment of Fifa only this tike I decided to get on Day One due to next gen console - my PS5. Read some reviews and O convinced myself - how bad can it really be? I mean hey, next gen! I got that usual excitement on its intro with Beckham doing a cameo alongside Cantona, Thierry Henry and even Lewis Hamilton in the VIP box. Fun fact. That's all there is for the excitemnet.
    Yup. Apart from the slightly clean finish of players texture and rendering, you're basiccally playing Fifa 2018 with more customizable avatars for Volta football, Career and Pro Clubs. And there instqnces where your players went missing after a celebration and EVERYTHING feels even more scripted than before! Your defenders refused to defend (as usual) and worse part? They make that abrupt stop after a standing tackle, allowing the opponent to recover the ball and all that beyond your control. Nuff said. I tried guys. I tried to believe and give another chance but this time it seems like EA has reach that milestone for releasing the worse Fifa

I also tried player career mode and found it boring, uninspiring and just as lifeless as it is every year, with very minimal changes, that only satisfy the very easily satisfied. As for pro clubs, I haven’t played it but I can imagine that it’s just the same, this series is made for one reason, to make money from EA’s twisted ultimate team mode.

    As for the gameplay, where do I begin? Finesse shots were once overpowered, now they are underpowered, long shots however are a joke, be prepared to concede an insane amount of goals from 30 yard shots. Some of these critics must be living on another planet, or they’ve been given a completely polished version of the game to review. My career mode experience ruined the game completely for me, it’s bordering on criminal, if this game constitutes a 9/10 rating, then these critics are simply lost, corrupt, or both.

    EA are one of the most morally bankrupt, hideous game companies, this game is further proof and sadly with the way PES has gone, they no longer have competition to FIFA, stay clear from this rubbish game.

    First, as always, I am forced to comment on the stupid/hate score here. Fact: every year the game gets a little bit better. Even though the upgrades are probably not worth the price of the full game, it is impossible to rate this game below 5 imo, there is just too much quality & content here.

    First, as always, I am forced to comment on the stupid/hate score here. Fact: every year the game gets a little bit better. Even though the upgrades are probably not worth the price of the full game, it is impossible to rate this game below 5 imo, there is just too much quality & content here.

    Then, my honest review. This year, the new player's animations coupled with a revamped ball physics bring a lot more variety to the gameplay. The balance is also a lot better and I felt my central defenders - after trying the "step up" instructions - were at long last able to position themselves correctly.

    Unfortunately, it seems the opponent AI rarely use this tactic, defenders will just backpedal to cover any through pass and let you find an easy shooting position. For the record, I played career mode on legendary with Kaiserslautern and found the game a lot easier. I also chose the "strict" transfer option which proved to be a late game breaker. After 4 years, I managed to improved all my young players above 80, some wonderkids even reached 88. I won the bundesliga and reached the semi in the champion's league. So I finally got a lot money and was really looking forward to further improve my squad. But no, the game is basically over because the "strict" transfer option won't let me buy any player above 90. Sad, very sad.

    Finally, as a career mode player, i am a little bit disapointed as it is exactly the same as last year. On the plus side, it runs a lot better on ps5 with almost no loading time but there is still so much room for improvement. Interviews before game are so random, the strict transfer option does not really work, half of your academy player will have the bug "ridiculous thin arm + no number on shirt", player development is still OP for the 5 stars skills and wrong foot perks. And last but not least, every career playthrough will be identical. Don't expect any random events who might challenge your manager skills like, idk: press scandals that destroy one player moral, 2 of your own players fighting on the pitch because one slept with the wife of the other, young star partying too much before games and destroying his progression, racism inside some stadiums, referees scandals with corruption... Nope, nothing will ever happen.

    A wish for the future is less focus on ultimate, i know its money and cash for them but have been the problem with the game for so many years.
    Only bad thing this year is manager mode. Some love create your own club but its just unrealistic can already make my own team in ultimate. i dont need that.

    ELOGIOS:
    Na minha opinião, FIFA 22 é uma simulação que se esforça para o futebol da realidade. A jogabilidade achei muito boa com a nova tecnologia implementada, as movimentações de cada jogador agredindo espaços são muito boas, comunicação e expressão facial entre os jogadores nessa nova geração. A marcação, ao meu ver, está mais inteligente mesmo e até mais difícil de penetrar na mesma.

    Na minha opinião, FIFA 22 é uma simulação que se esforça para o futebol da realidade. A jogabilidade achei muito boa com a nova tecnologia implementada, as movimentações de cada jogador agredindo espaços são muito boas, comunicação e expressão facial entre os jogadores nessa nova geração. A marcação, ao meu ver, está mais inteligente mesmo e até mais difícil de penetrar na mesma. As linhas são bem compactuadas de acordo com a formação de qualquer equipe. Isso é bem visível você colocando na câmera "Co-op". Domínio de bola, condução da bola, as defesas dos goleiros, os fundamentos de passe e chute estão bons, na minha opinião. Uma jogabilidade muito boa e divertida. Tem algumas outras coisas positivas, mas não vou me prolongar tanto. O que posso dizer é que pra você jogar esse FIFA 22 você tem que ter agilidade na hora das decisões a serem tomadas e, as vezes, um pouco de ousadia mesmo tentando as jogadas individuais se estiver com dificuldades para infiltrar na área adversária. Passes rápidos e bolas longas são essenciais muitas vezes jogando mais pro lado coletivo, porque a marcação está melhor, na minha opinião.

    CRÍTICAS:
    Eu joguei o FIFA 18 e 20. Pra mim, alguns erros antigos permanecem nesse jogo. Exemplo: a sua intenção de passe é para o jogador X, porém o jogador acaba executando o passe para o jogador Y. Isso não pode acontecer, porque pode acabar sendo um lance crucial pro seu adversário pegar uma defesa desprevenida e marcar um gol. Outro erro que notei, em algumas ocasiões, é a forma como o goleiro se joga na bola. Eu já fiz um gol em um oponente que era totalmente defensável, mas o goleiro do cara aceitou o meu chute e venci o jogo por 3x0, sendo que poderia ter sido muito bem um 2x0. Com certeza existem outros, mas a EA precisa resolver esses dois que, pra mim, são erros que não devem se repetir, e ainda acho que são simples de resolver.

    Portanto, no geral, é um jogo bom e acho que a EA estava de uma certa forma correta sobre a nova tecnologia. Realmente existem mudanças nesse jogo, mas tem erros que ainda precisam ser corrigidos pra, quem sabe, tornar o FIFA como muitos jogadores realmente queiram como seja, de fato.

    Hypermotion biggest joke in game history xDDDDDD the only thing this means that your player takes 1-2 seconds to react to your commands.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ea **** company. I've been playing inernational soccer since I was 93. I've bought a lot of your games like FIFA, NHL, NBA, etc. My children are playing now. You have been receiving donations from Russia for many years, and now you have subjected all your fans to these political repressions. I don't respect you, I will never buy your games again. EA you are corrupt scum. Expand

    An actual refreshingly decent fifa for once.

    FIFA has been stale and copy + paste for pretty much the past 10 years..... now this fifa is more slow paces and actually decent. The bad reviews are from those crying children who cannot abuse pace anymore.

    I normally buy FIFA mostly to play the career mode, but it is literally unplayable. The game crashes almost every time the player scores. I can't do anything besides simulate my matches, if I want to win them.
    EA, fix your mess!
    Some side-notes: Please give career mode more attention. It is super buggy; The game is switching around my players position on the field when i'm changing

    Some side-notes: Please give career mode more attention. It is super buggy; The game is switching around my players position on the field when i'm changing tactics (And when I try to save and overwrite every single tactic, but the system forgets about my changes...)., the AI freezes when having ball possesion, the "hidden" difficulty-adjustingsystem is still a thing (it feels like a script - some games become almost impossible to win), etc. So sad!
    In addition to the bugs, you are making some strange choices for the games' direction. Nobody cares about attending live press conferences, transfernegotiations or playing the the trainingpass every god damn week. It's niche and boring AF after the first time. Such a shame you seem to focus more on making chores rather than making fun gameplay. Maybe your developers should try playing the game while creating it - you know, just to get a feeling of which parts of the game is fun to play and which parts seems to be unneccesary features that nobody wants or ask for.

    0/10 - unplayable. Better luck next year...

    FIFA 22 shows its wasted potential every step of the way. When everything works as it should, it’s the best FIFA in years. The problem is that while sometimes the new HyperMotion technology works great and really makes a noticeable difference, the game often picks wrong animations from its mind-boggling array of 8 million. Let’s hope EA Sports builds on these promising foundations, fixes what needs to be fixed and delivers a truly great experience next year. [12/2021, p.36]

    FIFA 22 has improved the feel and smoothness of actions, but there are almost no changes in the game mode and gameplay. The reduction of stand-alone content makes it not very suitable as the first FIFA entry for newcomers.

    FIFA 22 looks amazing on next-gen hardware which was to be expected. What was not to be expected is the brilliant gameplay. It still isn’t a full-blown simulation, of course, but it’s way more tactical and fun than before, including the (in)famous Ultimate Team. The only thing that truly suffers is the neglected Career Mode.
