    EA employs something like a Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment (or scripting) for online and even offline competition.

There's a solid chance that I'll lob a through ball at a striker (I don't need to see him) in the 45' or 90' and either tie or beat you. So listen here, you sad master of FIFA, as soon as you score a goal, I'll be given the power to dribble through your defense and score straight away... so don't bother. Just hold the controller, go back and forth with hulk smash through balls and pretend like you just DVR'd a WWE version of footy.

    On a more balanced note:
    This game could be great if it wasn't for EA's aggressive attempt at equalizing the competition and manufacturing unearned drama.

    Pros: Great control; GK is more dynamic; environment and graphics are captivating
    Cons: Scripting; Defense is an afterthought; more scripting.    … Expand

Ultimate team is a fun idea and working while not playing matches. EA likes to work with a sort of handicap system that makes players sometimes more unresponsive and slow than in other matches. Pushing the sprint won't work, I can't RUN! This happens especially when you are on the urge to promote. Complete nonsense. Maybe if I buy Ronaldo or a legend for a couple of million. Will it be better then? That's the question EA wants you to ask. It's all about the MONEY. And people playing with Walcott who is going faster than the speed of light, it's just unrealistic. It's defendable, but also complete nonsense. No EA, I'm having real trouble to trust in a good Fifa 16.… Expand

    The worst FIFA in the last 10 years. A complete failure of epic proportions in almost every aspect of the game’s playability. A slap in the face for the long-time Fifa’s users.

    DO NOT BUY, seriously DON'T, Ive been playing fifa since fifa 07 and I can say without a doubt this is the WORST fifa I have ever played, the word scripted doesn't even do it any justice, it's an absolute joke.

It is somewhat entertaining when the game is pulling for you, but when it's not it the most ridiculous, frustrating pile of garbage Ive ever played. The penalty system: Im not sure if you can call it a penalty system, granted the penalty system has always been a little iffy in FIFA games and they make so much money they don't care to fix it, but they just took it to a whole new level in this one, If I had a nickel for the number of times Ive been just destroyed in the box without the guy even being near the ball Id have a million dollars (otherwise know as almost enough to pack a good player in ultimate team). The handball system: It doesn't exist, not a joke, It literally doesn't, people can just swat the ball and get away with it. The stupid EA boosting system: you know the feeling of buying a 93 overall team of the season Diego Costa with pretty much 99 strength and then having him be outrun and pushed over like a lamp by a silver card?? I certainly do, when the game wants the other team to score the game just becomes completely unfun, your 90 passing fabregas will miss 19 4 foot passes in a row and the ball will go directly to the other team, your 90 overall ibra (with hunter) will miss every single shot he takes, even from 2 feet out, BUT WAIT that's not even the worst part, the worst part is how they boost the other team, have you ever seen tony kroos outrun jordi alba?? well I have! because it happens every game, when the game decides to do so, it just give the entire opposing team 99 pac 99 dribbling 99passing and 99 physical, it's really fun having IF walcott (99 pace with chemistry style) get chased down by john terry (like 40 pace or something terrible) and having him slide through both of your legs (without a penalty) have the ball stick to his foot, and he gets up before your guy, who is 2 feet away, can get the ball. The AI system: now this is very confusing to me, because they obviously know how to design AI's because the opposing team will always play the most amazing defense Ive ever seen in my entire life, no matter how good their players are, or how good yours are, BUT your defensive AI is best at staring at the ball ass it goes right by their feet or head and straight to the other team for an easy goal, how after 20 years of making this game your players still will never play defense unless your controlling them. The passing system: horrible....just horrible, it seems like they made it so that your guy automatically aims for the guy 70 yards away covered by 6 people instead of the 3 guys who are right in front of you wide open, it's the worst passing system of any fifa Ive ever played, ESPECIALLY when ea starts pulling for the other team, then your guys will literally just kick it to the opposite team. The Ultimate Team: let me sum it up for you quickly, Pace is the only stat that matters, and you need at least $200 if you want to pack anybody actually worth anything. I know there's more terrible things Im forgetting but you get the idea, its so super scripted and awful that everytime I play it ends with me screaming at my players because they can't complete a simple pass, or make a goal from 2 feet out, or the other team just fouls you every time you get the ball but get away with it because of the penalty system. I really can't stress how bad this game is, DO NOT BUY IT I'm saving you money and a lot of frustration, jus tog buy FIFA 14! It has a lot less problems AND you get the world cup add on FREE! Where you can actually get all of those player you wanted in regular ultimate team (ronaldo, messi, 90 ovr neymar, and plenty of other amazing players, plus it probably only costs like 10 bucks at this point which means you wont be giving as much money to a horrible bloated jackass of a company (EA) which makes us all happy.

    So to sum it all up DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, I don't care what the other reviews say (though im sure theyre mostly negative) it is not even worth 5 dollars, I have been playing FIFA games for almost 10 years and this game makes me want to switch to PES, and that's not something I thought I would ever say.    … Expand

    EA keeps advertising this as a football simulation, yet it's nothing like real life football, nor does it take any skill. They keep pushing Fully Assisted settings so that even the least intelligent, least skillful person on the planet can play it. Needless to say, this ruins competitivity. Also, the game's pace is absolutely ridiculous, which is not only a result of Assisted settings.

The graphics have been definitely downgraded, Goalkeepers are pretty much broken, defending was good before the patch if you played on Manual settings, now it's an assisted broken mess as the rest of the aspects of play like shooting and passing.

    As a result, even Online Seasons, which is the best mode for me, isn't rewarding to play, and someone like me who used to get a 4.0 win/loss ratio gets a 2.0 ratio, after 250 games. All because EA have gone down the path of ultra-arcade games, and refuse to make people learn to play a game, they simply make "pick-up-and-play" FIFA games since 13, and it's getting worse and worse.

    The reality of the FIFA Franchise is that in the course of the years it has simply shifted its focus on one goal; Profit Maximisation.

    In the course of the last editions of the Fifa franchise, the game developers realised that in order to maintain a competitive environment and subsequently a popular and profitable game they had to level out and balance the difference in experience between players. This phenomenon is mostly if not only relevant to FUT (Ultimate team), aka EA's cash machine.

    What the average dedicated Ultimate team player realises in the long-run is that at some point (if not at many) he will encounter something called Handicap (automated rigging) that decides to tamper with the game. The reason for which this (undeclared) system is implemented in the game revolves around two goals; The first being that the game becomes more "competitive" and it allows inexperienced players to have their say in the game to ultimately keep them hooked and entertained. On the other hand, their second goal, much in relation to the first one, is to milk out as much cash as possible from the players. The way that EA does this is by making players go on either winning or loosing streaks. In the circumstance of a loosing streak the average player will resort to buying packs in an attempt to increase its teams strength and redeem his/her losses. Now as you may know one single match will never provide you with enough money to buy loads of packs and win high rated players so essentially what happens is that many people resort to spending physical money in forms of Fifa coins (or online Fifa traders if smart) to increase their chance of getting a good team. Much like popular games in the past and present (Clash of Clans, Runescape etc), they as a company keep you hooked to maximise their profit.

    The most common examples of tampering are the following: Players missing easy tap-ins, decrease in pace, players falling and tripping, randomly assigned penalties, excessive hits on posts and bars, players getting injured on an attack, 85 Physical rated players getting knocked down by garden gnomes and of course ridiculously easy goals between specific time frames (1-5, 40-45, 85-90, 90+).

    Although everything above is the main reason why I have lost faith and interest in the Franchise there are another set of reasons why I think this game deserves a very low rating:

    - I feel that beyond a slight refurbishment in the GUI, Career mode is still the same dysfunctional and bugged game mode
    - The strategical environment of the game is flawed (Bad defence, excessive attack, etc.)
    - Tournament on Ultimate team get stuck permanently
    - Squads in Ultimate team get Stuck for days if not weeks
    - EA servers go down way too much
    - Over priced Fifa Coins
    - Unrealistic ratings of players
    - Fifa tax on FUT transfer market (Really?, a tax in a game?)

    The reality is that EA is playing us for fools and have effectively been able to destroy something that old and young generations have craved as a culture. In true honesty my verdict on this game is a 2.

    The only real solution to make EA come to terms with what being an ethical company is about is by not buying this game anymore. Next year its PES for me. Its about time that some sane competition puts EA back on track.    … Expand

Passes are just placed where ever it 'the game' feels like kicking the ball, the game is riddled with glitches such as on kick off you can sprint at the opponent team and your players can't tackle him.

    Another shocking instalment of a once loved franchise that seems to get worse every year, I remember buying FIFA 13 and thinking what have they done but that seems like a masterpiece compared to this regurgitated, still broken ****

    Every year they add more and more pointless features while the core gameplay is fundamentally broken with their 'physics engine' still a complete mess. On    Another shocking instalment of a once loved franchise that seems to get worse every year, I remember buying FIFA 13 and thinking what have they done but that seems like a masterpiece compared to this regurgitated, still broken ****

    Every year they add more and more pointless features while the core gameplay is fundamentally broken with their 'physics engine' still a complete mess. On this years roster of inane things they have added to try and mask that they have't actually done anything; little animations and cut scenes for absolutely every event. I don't want to see two terribly animated players pretend to square up over a clear cut foul, I don't want 30 seconds of my player picking up the ball, placing it, and then lining up the free-kick when the half only lasts 6 minutes. I don't want 15 seconds of a player arbitrarily moving his mouth in front of the ref in complaint when he slid through my attacker from the back in the penalty area while last man and only being booked for it.
    Players muscles now show through theirs shirt although again this could have been in FIFA 14, while they still stick to players like a second skin, how hard is it to animate shirts, I see games do it all the time.

    Lets talk about gameplay. Admittedly it has been a little to easy to score on previous FIFAs, especially on FUT, so the addition of new low IQ demi-god super keepers has been implemented to try and even it up a little. They will pull off incredible reaction stops and ridiculous double and triple saves only to come for a corner or cross they clearly can't get or maybe leave their near post ridiculously open without your input leaving the opponent with an essentially empty net. The keepers in this game feel very schizophrenic, while playing with the same keeper as my opponent, and the latter pulling off save after match winning save mine is beaten by his first shot, usually a scuff straight at him

    Defending it worse than ever, fullbacks drop playing attackers onside regularly. The AI will sometimes randomly pull a defender, usually your best centre back, from your well organised back line, leaving a gaping hole for one of the plethora of fast, strong black players your opponent is no doubt using to run in on goal unopposed and score near post. The defending AI is generally awful. Pace seemingly gets worse to defend each year, by the time you've managed to switch to the nearest player and you have broken from the glue that holds you to the pitch whenever you switch to a new player, Victor Ibarbo will have already passed you. It is possible to defend against pace but you need a perfect connection to the wonderful, venerable EA servers, anything less and your players simply won't react in time and if this is identified by your opponent they will get through to your goal at will. There is an exploit at kick-off when in two strides any attacker will have a free run at the defence, by passing the midfield who run aimlessly in the opposite direction. If you do manage to tackle a sprinting oncoming opposing player, don't be surprised if his momentum just wins him the ball back, or for your player to crumple to the deck leaving his standing and one less obstacle in his way.

    The physics engine causes FIFA 15 to play to a different rule book compared to the real game. Anything off the ball isn't a foul, and if you can master the off the ball foul you can stop a lot of would be chances. You will find yourself being fouled on the ball and decision going the other way, you will round the keeper and be scythed down will ball a few yards ahead only to find your ref is Sun Kwan Cho and his eyes don't open enough to see the incident.

    When the connection is good I can overlook most of the heinous design flaws and enjoy the game but as we know with EA this is rarely the case. One game my players are responsive with crisp passing and touches, the next they seem as if they have never played football, the passes either being under-hit or over-hit, having the turning circle of a heavy goods vehicle, constantly being offside, de-locking from the ball, standing behind opposing players, running to where the ball has been and gone, running into each other etc. I only accept games with green latency and my internet is very fast so I know its not on my end and 60% of games are fine but the other 40% make me want to pull my hair out. And in the end after one of these horrible laggy games where I have a scraped a draw to stay in my current division and my poorly animated PS2 graphics players celebrate their survival on the **** green carpet and Martin Tyler speaks of how he will see me again next season in the same division and I watch the first half of the highlight reel without being able to skip, a message pops up; 'disconnected from Ultimate Team'. I check my laptop, my internet is still on, I immediately reconnect to EA servers, 'it seems you disconnected from your last match, this will affect your DNF'. Relegated. **** you EA.    … Expand

    I have been trying to enjoy this game since it came out, but every time I make an effort I swear to never play the game again.

I believe I am an above average FIFA player    I have been trying to enjoy this game since it came out, but every time I make an effort I swear to never play the game again.

    First of all, I have been an avid FIFA player ever since FIFA 10 came out. I have seen the game change over the years and have experienced the positive nuances and obvious setbacks that each release has had to offer. I believe I am an above average FIFA player and I have learned the series enough over the years to be able to provide great insight to the more technical and subtle aspects of the game. With that said, I have to say that FIFA 15 is a pretty significant step backwards in the FIFA series.

    The Good:
    The game looks fantastic. Some of the visuals of the game are absolutely stunning (the players walking out of the tunnel, the supporting fans reacting to their team's goal, etc.). The player animations are smooth and flow perfectly, and ball mechanics feel and look realistic. Career mode has also added smaller features that improve game play outside of actually playing a match.

    The Bad:
    Not much in terms of innovation from the last game. There are new animations and the mechanics of the game have changed slightly but EA hasn't made any significant changes with the game that would compel me to buy it if it weren't for the roster updates (and the fact that online for an old FIFA game dies once a new game comes out). And of course, the EA servers (enough said).

    The Ugly:
    Defending is absolutely impossible. In past recent FIFA's, I had put effort into improving my defense by learning to jockey (LT), anticipating passes, learning when to call for a second defender, etc., but this year trying to win the ball back is a chore. Quick players with high dribbling stats can easily sprint past the best defenders in the game with ease. Over-the-top threw balls aren't quite as over powered as last year but still can still be extremely difficult to deal with. Goalies can vary from game to game, one game they are a wall, the next they couldn't stop a beach ball.

    Every time I try to play I tell myself that I can succeed playing the game without exploiting the flawed mechanics, i.e. pace abuse, constant over the top threw balls; (which I have been able to do in previous FIFA games; you would never see me do the "kick off glitch" last year haha) but I fall short to the rage that this game induces and I end up giving up.

    If you buy FIFA every year, than I would suggest to buy this game. It is satisfactory enough and maybe the game fits your play style better. If you are new to the series, I would either suggest buying an older FIFA (13 was a favorite of mine although that game also had its flaws) for cheaper or trying this game out.

    Disclaimer: The score of 4 is in relation to experience I've had with previous FIFA's. It would be hard to give the game a concrete score without comparing the game to past titles in the series.    … Expand

    The game has literally only approved on the graphics side, the rest is just utter **** there is so many glitches and buggy its not normal you cant get in a game and then when you do it kicks you out straight away and counts as a loss and your players loose contacts and fitness for no reason , every time you buy a player also it kicks you of the server basically what every you do ea willThe game has literally only approved on the graphics side, the rest is just utter **** there is so many glitches and buggy its not normal you cant get in a game and then when you do it kicks you out straight away and counts as a loss and your players loose contacts and fitness for no reason , every time you buy a player also it kicks you of the server basically what every you do ea will find a way to wreck your fifa experience and your day, This year this is one of the worst games in the terms of the bugs and glitches but it terms of graphics and gameplay when it running smooth its great, so if they sort out all the bugs and glitches the gameplay and smooth it will get a 9 or 10 but I carnt give that because the game is so buggy.… Expand

    Totally horrible game honestly,

    They clearly only tried to improve graphics, EVERY single aspect of the game play is inconsistent, buggy and **** laughable

    Disgusting game that will make you fume with rage, the developers should lose their jobs honestly, it's that bad

    Don't buy this

    It's a poor game, EA are just take us all for a ride. There are so many flaws in this version (the last good one being Fifa 10), it’s a wonder there's no standard system to check games before they are released.

    I accept that much like every scenario, when you’re winning “what a great game!! I love it” then when it goes wrong “OH!! That’s a load of b&^%$#*t!!”. But playing the game just gives me a feeling that it’s a count down until EA catches up with me and starts fixing my results.
    I'm sure everyone on here knows the problems, there’s no need for me to recap them. However, I think there’s one flaw that stands out, there’s no consistency in the game. The teams I play with, whether its on Seasons or FUT, differ from game to game. This is a key basic fault in the way the game has been made.
    I have two accounts, my first, main account, is cursed. I can't win for love or money. My record stands FUT 58-26-66, Seasons 24-8-20. I swapped everything, seeing as I had no resources in the other account, to that account. My current record stands at FUT 37-11-24 (but EA have caught up with me now, yesterday I beat a team with Rodriguez, Messi and Bale up front, not to mention the rest of the team, 5-1. Then, somehow, today I was destroyed 9-0 against a team, well, you should see the goals they scored, i.e. ricochets off my goalkeeper, off one defender, who then kicks it onto another defender, off my keeper again and falls nicely in front of my opponents striker..MAGIC. After 4-0, I set my players to ‘park the bus’ and left it, I return to see I lost 9-0..haha..dodgy game), Seasons 31-7-20. You tell me, do you see anything strange in that!?    … Expand

    The fact that this game has a rating above 4 is a joke. The game is fun, but not very good and that's only if it works.

There are so many known problems with the game and EA has said NOTHING about it.

Its frustrating to play and it doesn't like any problems will be resolved until a few FIFAs down the line.… Expand

    Awful, simply awful. How can EA get away with publishing half finished games? And scripting is back bigger bad badder than ever before plus the main exploit..."the hoof" is the most effective weapon. A footy game this isn't, more like a turgid mess of AFL and NFL combined.

    It gets one because it exists - but only barely. Without the small and ultimately forgettable aesthetic tweaks you have basically bought yourself FIFA14. The terrible defenders and woeful, tragically contrived goalkeepers do afford some comic value, but ultimately the mad goalie rushes and blatant unresponsiveness of the defenders is a laborious chore which makes FIFA 15 the leastIt gets one because it exists - but only barely. Without the small and ultimately forgettable aesthetic tweaks you have basically bought yourself FIFA14. The terrible defenders and woeful, tragically contrived goalkeepers do afford some comic value, but ultimately the mad goalie rushes and blatant unresponsiveness of the defenders is a laborious chore which makes FIFA 15 the least immersive game currently available.

    The main assault, however, is the blatant disregard of the career mode in favour of the profit pulling FUT. Playing with friends across a season online just isn't possible and this is frustrating considering the fun I've had on connected franchise in Madden. Frankly its a game I no longer own, EA has made football, the most social of things, a very lonely grind. I'm kind surprised that they haven't started charging you coins for scoring goals...    … Expand

    Gameplay sucks big time, FIFA 14 was better. The only thing good about this game is the graphics.

    I'm a long time fan of FIFA, but this game has been the biggest dissapointment to date. I'm happy I got the game for free, because it's not worth anything. Stick with FIFA 14 and hope that FIFA 16 will be better.

    This year’s second FIFA offers very little that is new, but overall it’s still one of the best sports games around. [Nov 2014]

    FIFA 15 delivers what you would expect from it. Which is a massive plus point for EA Sports this year. In fact it’s the first EA game I’ve played this year that was actually feature complete at launch.

    FIFA 15 it’s a football experience clearly built for new generation platforms but it’s not without problems or sufficiently demarcated from previous games.
