    Game is normal, but EA dont use fresh details. Ultimate team is not adequately balance and very commercial way. I like this game, but i dont want more than 0, because EA need listen own buyers.

    A bad game, just like most other FIFA games these days.
    Year after years it's just a copy and paste game with a $60 price tag.

    The only thing EA puts their time towards is looking for a way to earn more and more money with FUT.
    All other game modes are left behind, with barely anything new added each year.

    Definitely not something that's worth a AAA game price tag.

    Hey guys, I just don't think it's fair that EA has exclusive rights to all things they use in FIFA games. If you agree, sign this: https://www.change.org/p/fifa-take-fifa-licenses-away-from-ea-sports/

    Easily the worst £60 pounds I’ve ever spent, I’m glad I didn’t but FIFA 21. Career mode (the only mode I enjoyed) was absolutely ruined with the simulation aspect of the game mode destroyed, I was unable to simulate a full season without getting sacked, play morale was a good idea but was executed with all the efficiency of a bike without wheels that has been buried 6 feet under.
    The gameplay was easily the worst I’ve ever experienced, the referees felt completely biased and unfair, I could tap an opposition player with a singular atom of my door and boom, red card but my player could get thrown to the ground and beaten with a shovel and the opposition would still get away with it.
    Ultimate Team was awful as always, with new cards being released constantly and EA being greedy and putting people in debt just so they could pack a card that would become worthless by September.
    Volta was one of the main reasons I bought this game, and it was awful. In FIFA street, I could skill out Ronaldo with De Gea but with Volta, you were unable to do any skills without a 5* skill move player, it didn’t feel nearly as authentic as FIFA street and it wasn’t nearly as good.
    Overall this game is awful and if I could reverse time and not purchase this game, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Career mode bugs not being fixed after the game being released for 9 months. Ultimate team had its good parts for sure, but marred by the removal of single player seasons (what?!) And the appaling executed "rivals" feature.
    Long story short, as long as you dum dums keep pumping hundreds of millions into Ultimate Team, only to discard that team and re buy the same game a year later, in order to pump more money into it, theyre gonna laugh on their way to the bank with your money, and not give a damn either way. Idiots.

    Its meh (pes is still better). Volta is okay but the voice actors get really annoying. Career mode is still really bad and it makes my Xbox sound like a jet plane. Everything else is basically the same as fifa 19. Buy pes or football manager instead.

    My opinion this has the worst career mode on in History.
    You cannot leave 1 player out of a game without them threatening to leave also your moral sky rockets down more then it will go up. You can’t sign average players if your a promoted team without then wanting first team football. Hopefully fifa 21 fixes these problems

    Worst FIFA game in... I don't know... for as long as I can remember. Defending is impossible, crossing into the box even more so, player speed seems to slow down while chasing... On the other hand, it probably levels the playing field between a division 1 (which I reached a few times in FIFA 19, I'm mostly a division 2 player) and a division 8 player, of that's what your goal is. Disgusting!

Negli ultimi anni sono stato attratto molto dalla modalità Ultimate Team, ma essendo un giocatore occasionale avevo sempre squadre modeste, pertanto i miei risultati erano scadenti e solo talvolta appena accettabili. Gli scorsi anni in weekend league raggiungevo oro 3 facilmente. Le sconfitte le imputavo alla forza dei miei avversari, che avevano carte costose e molto rare, anche se talvolta rocambolesche. Eppure non mi sono mai voluto nascondere dietro il momentum o altre dinamiche nascoste. Quest'anno ho avuto il gioco al day one, ho deciso di fare una squadra della madonna e ho iniziare a fare investimenti, trading. a metà ottobre avevo una squadra dal valore di 2mln (roba che gli anni addietro nemmeno a marzo riuscivo ad avere). Risultato? NESSUN CAMBIAMENTO!! ANZI!! nonostante avessi giocatori molto più forti della media ottenevo comunque risultati scadenti, peggiori anche degli anni precedenti (argento 1). Risultati ottenuti in modi rocamboleschi e folli. Dominavo le partite dall'inizio alla fine, più di 20 tiri in porta, e non riuscivo a segnare mai a causa di rimpalli, giocatori che schermavano la porta, portieri devastanti che parano tutto anche tirandogli da vicinissimo. Gli avversari invece riuscivano a vincere in modo rocambolesco con 1 tiro in porta, spesso decisivo. Questo non è bello, provoca frustrazione e non fa che allontanare noi giocatori dal mondo Ea FIFA. Ho anche pensato che fossi IO il problema, cioè che non fossi abbastanza bravo, che non fossi all'altezza. Ma quando domini l'avversario in tutti i modi e su piu fronti (numero tiri in porta, possesso palla, fisico ecc) non si può non pensare che questo sia un GIOCO COMPLETAMENTE PILOTATO.

    passando ad un'analisi tecnica del gameplay, questo "gioco" non rappresenta nulla del calcio. Non riesce ad essere una vera simulazione calcistica, nè per tempi di gioco (flipper continuo) nè per fisica del pallone (l'hanno modificata rispetto al 19 rendendo la sfera un super santos impazzito). la palla rimbalza sul terreno di gioco e schizza in aria in modo anomalo, non ha un peso realistico. Per quanto riguarda Fut, è completamente pilotato. Puoi avere una squadra da 20k o da 1mln, il gioco comunque deciderà il tuo piazzamento facendo accadere robe allucinanti: papere dei portieri, 1000 occasioni sbagliate davanti al portiere avversario. Gol al 90esimo SICURO. Ci sono dinamiche e tempistiche in cui ero sicuro che avrei fatto gol o lo avrei subito perchè era il momento GIUSTO per il gioco. Vieni costantemente manipolato. Rispetto al 19, che era un gioco ben fatto, SUPER ARCADE, ma ben fatto, l'hanno solo reso meno fluido e bizzoso, con una palla matta dalla fisica inesatta. Rivenduto a gamestop a Novembre.
    e' un gioco pensato male, realizzato male, mal giocabile, non coerente con la realtà, pilotato, manovrato, in cui il giocatore non è artefice del risultato della partita, con dinamiche oscure e strane. E' inutile che la EA neghi ciò che è palese a tutti solo perchè non si vede. E' come negare che il sole emani anche calore solo perchè vediamo luce da esso, mica calore.

    EA really showed contempt for it's fans this year and proved that they are only interested in you buying coins to play FUT.

    EA, where is the love for football? Where's the passion? Where have you shown any love for the fans of the series? You must've forgotten how serious Pro Evolution Soccer is as competition.

I got sacked after 38 games with the team in 6th because I did not meet some of the objectives. One was to finish with a £9m profit for the year. If i sold every single player, I would not make £9m. The objectives can be impossible, and now that you actually face repercussions for failing them, it’s a glaring problem. (This is a game breaker).
    - Headers are utterly pointless. I’ve played over 75 games and not scored a single corner. I have tried EVERY possible way to approach these. Do search this online, other people agree that the direction and height is completely random, with next to no success.
    - With default settings on the second hardest difficulty, I played 8 matches in a row where the score was 2-1 to either team. Across 25 matches there was never a score other than 2-1, 1-1 or 1-0. Is that really realistic? - Your players make ZERO forward runs. Everyone is incredibly static. If you want to show some urgency so change team instructions, everyone is out of stamina by 60 minutes! - There are never fouls by the AI. New Free Kick mechanics are in there somewhere, but I’ve had about 1 Free Kick every 30 matches so I have no idea if they’re an improvement. - Blocked shots - the AI has an incredible block shot ratio. - Rebound goals - so many goals conceded from knocking it into an empty net after an initial save. - Winning a tackle but not the ball...unbelievable how often you can win your challenge but the ball still fall to the AI players. Do yourself a favour and don’t bother buying it. EA have had almost a month since early access to try and patch these issues but instead they have done nothing. They are showing utter contempt for loyal customers and I hope it hits them in the pocket.

    FIFA 19 v2, this is an absolute disgrace to gaming. Why is there a football mini-game in my gambling simulator? EA has forgotten that they are a game company. Career mode is a buggy mess and volta is a poor man's fifa street. I will not support EA anymore.

    Lets address the negatives first. Yes, career mode was broken but they're working on it. I'm not sure how all the things wrong with it weren't addressed in testing but regardless, they're working on it. Gameplay wise, the only thing wrong right now is switching player, which - even when using the right analog stick - seems to not change to who you are trying to select.

Apart from that, the gameplay is great! They changed defending so that you can't just rely on your AI players to tackle for you, YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO DEFEND YOURSELF NOW, which I love because I've always been a big fan of defending manually. Because the scrubs can't defend manually, they abuse the 'Drop Back' custom tactic, which allows me, a possession based player, to have so much room around the edge of their box, play my way through and score. I haven't lost a single game on Online Seasons yet because the game is rewarding positive play instead of just having pacey players and spamming through ball, and I LOVE IT. Expand

    Been playing career mode for well over 10 years now on past FIFAs. FIFA 20 promised so much for career mode but it’s so broken it’s not playable. There are millions of people that only want to play offline and EA **** on them every year. We pay for the game, it’s a lot of money to loose if we all jump to PES.

Teams playing youth players constantly. Being fired for giving contract extensions. No trophy for celebrations. The list is now reaching 30 major bugs and glitches.

I ended up getting the standard edition pre-order for my birthday as a gift which was around $90 and I was excited for all the new features they'd promised like dynamic potential and morale and everything else. Then, just a day before the game officially came out, my pre-order was cancelled for no reason. There was no explanation and I wasnt even told if I'd gotten a refund. The person who gave me the gift said they would buy it for me again. So basically, almost $200 was spent on this game (if the original pre-order wasn't refunded, which i'm still unsure about).

    This is by far the most disappointing game I've every played. Not the most disappointing FIFA game. Career mode, the main reason that I got the game for my birthday and was so excited for it, is completely broken. I won't describe the glitches in it since its been so heavily publicised but it makes the game almost unplayable and I don't have faith that EA will patch most of them any time soon.

    Don't buy this game whatsoever, at least not until patches come out for it. Waste of money

    For all the scathing comments about FUT's predatory and disgusting practices, it cannot be denied that FIFA 20 is still a great game. If micro-transactions are a concern then, avoid them - it is pretty easy to do with the sheer number of available options, which are next to none in this genre, with Volta and House Rules being incredibly fun additions to FIFA's on-going repertoire of modes. The subtle evolution of player skill moves might be inaccessible to the casual player, but the experts that can take advantage of these changes will definitely be able to test their skills. FIFA 20 is an evolution to the series, which has surprised with its diversity of options, and should only continue to grow as the decade goes on.
