absolute outstanding video, and as a avid fifa fan that gets fustrated and can never pin point the true reasons other than blame delay as to why i hate this game, i think this is up there if not the main reason.. watching my strikers just stand behind a defender for 90mins is infuriating, but i always blame delay.
I agree with you for the most part. However, all that can change once DDA kicks in. For instance you see how in the fifa 20 map everything is stagnant? The same way I if you are dominating someone and dda kicks in their favor, they can put down their controller and you'll see their players are very active in the map irregardless. They are man making, chasing players, even auto tackling. Essentially EA takes out normal behavior and play from the game and allows user to achieve them based on what's happening during the match. If you are dominating, the algorithm can pick up on it and change the team's behavior, which involves speed, football logic, runs into space, accuracy etc...If someone is losing they algorithm buff those stats and sliders for the user, to the point the person can put down their controller and you are inside their box and still can't get a shot.
You've been taking the words right out of my mouth in these past revealing videos. I cannot believe how this hasn't received more attention. Keep up the good work Stallion!! 🙌
I just don’t understand how Dani parejo can outpace ousmane dembele then run the whole distance to my box, get tackled 5 times but keeps possession, shoots gets saved then bangs in the rebound as the other keeper makes 35 saves
@C-L-k tbf they did a better job with the whole pace thing in FIFA 20. You can actually ran past opponents when you have the ball now. Don't get me wrong, it's still bad, but nowhere near as bad as the previous FIFA's when it comes to pace
I’m afraid we’ve lost ultimate team now lads, the new wave of kids jumping on ultimate team have grown up watching pack openings on UA-cam rather than actual football so their perceptions are skewed. As long as this pay2win environment stands the gameplay will continue to decline..
You know who you sound like ? Every single generation that came before you, continuing the tradition of finding something wrong with the following 'new wave'. These kids aren't the problem it's the game, other companies have made games that are great w Identical player bases.
Joseph Bennett the kids are the byproduct of UA-camrs who have been giving EA thousands of pounds for years. They think that it’s an acceptable thing to do. Until the youtubers follow the KSI route (Refusing to play the game)
I've always been saying FUT is pay2win... there's no point in getting Ronaldo when you can literally buy a totw chump with similar stats... its just the clout of having rare card and icons
Joseph Bennett I never said there’s anything wrong with the new wave of kids, they are simply a product of the unfortunate environment. The environment created by EA predominantly.. that’s the real problem
I'm surprised you think that way. It's pretty easy to defend in this and the point is given in the video. The AI in offence is stupid. They don't make any effort to free themselves up. Which is why I have a lot of 1-0 victories. This is much more evident in pro clubs. When a team scores, especially in the higher divisions, it's almost impossible to get a goal back. Shittiest FIFA by far.
Then it just means you are bad at defending. I defend pretty well against AI and against others. Can beat legendary without conceding. I have never conceded more than 3 goals in a match.
Defending in the game is more challenging but doable. I really enjoy it for the most part. There are some of the old defending problems as always but defending in FIFA 20 require skill and discipline which is a fun challenge to me
this guy just talks nothing but facts. how can fifa go backwards. my gameplay in fifa depends a lot on movement and thru balls etc. I wonder why I hate fifa 20
@@sabrosso1 the same until fifa 16 where using skills was not so necessary i was very good.. In that bullshit game one yes.. One no.. Two yes.. One no.. 3 yes.. 4 no.. Is a lottery every game also now that i have a god team never had since fifa 13.think in battles i will it top 100 but online is a real shit
Damn we all thought FIFA 17 was getting bad, now looking at that gameplay it looks like the greatest game ever compared to 20. EA's really messing this up
True lmao. When I was playing FIFA 17 I thought that was the worst football game I ever played. It still is, because I haven't played newer FIFAs. The best decision in my life.
Zack-Mavin fifa 13-16 was so boring you could do nothing just play some kickoff games there was no content just make a ai yourself or even writing an own game, fifa is complicated to make its not pac man
The scary part about this is that most people are already trapped into EA's trap....they will complain every year and every day about how much the game sucks and how better the previous FIFA is compared to the current FIFA....yet these people are also the ones who will keep spending their money on this game every year..
Actually most people i know like me while been playing since fifa world cup 98, all wait until it hits the EA access. I just started fifa 20 like 2 months ago. Still frustrated and I've maybe spent 14 bucks for a few starter packs. Which I normally do anyways. Highest value card I got was a Liverpool CL bench player that I don't even think Actually made the pool CL squad list. I'm not infuriated anymore on spending 60+ on a busted game. I'm infuriated now, because its practically insulting to anyone who played this game in real life. EA honestly might be on the brink of collapse if they don't fix their shit. From the looks of madden 21 a game they promised would address issues brought up by the fan base. Its not looking like they've made any effort to change. Madden 21 sounds beyond broken. Fifa 21 looks like its going to be the same. And if the game doesn't improve from its beta. Which was god awful. Then it's going to be interesting to see what happens. They lost PGA one of their staple franchises. They could easily lose fifa. People from madden are taking about a petition to break up EA and its control over NFL rights. With the following FIFA has it wouldn't shock me one bit if fans either boycott or petition as well.
Your analysis of the gameplay has literally blown me away. Me and my mates couldn’t work out what was broken with this soulless cash cow until now. You sir are a legend and the Morpheus of the Fifa community. 🙇♂️
Youre not really playing then if you rely on AI players. Check out my Messi solo goals and ill show you that theres more to do in fifa by being creative
Pako_ N9ne_Jukes Mate, your playing season matches against players, who can’t defend. Of course you don’t need attacking AI. Come back saying attacking AI should not be improved after playing a game of fut champs against drop back1 depth, where people actually will try to take the ball away from you...
Fifa stopped being fun because: Scripting/handicap/momentum Reduced skill gap Pay to win Removing game features that are useful for better players You can know run sprint and shoot, these 3 commands are enough to win in this game due to dda AI defensively better for weak players AI attacking runs are non existent Tackling doesn’t work When switching to a CB the game will either put you onto the other CB or the full back. 45 &90th min goals Kick off goals Slow servers Auto blocks What happened to cancel skill move What happened to custom set pieces What happened to simple tricks like drags and close control being useful What happened to holding r1+l1 for total control of your player when the ball was in the air or going out of play, fifa 19&20 it rarely works and your player just locks onto the ball. What happened to actually having to bring your own gk out if you feel a through ball is overhit instead the gk always runs out by himself if he can get the ball first (another example of reduced skill gap) What happened to pretend cut inside and go outside with wingers , getting into the box pass across the keeper , they made this so hard to do because poor fifa players fall for this trick every single time. So they make simple skills to change direction harder to work properly, they make defenders agility and deceleration in these scenarios so overpowered plus when you pass across goal you have to pray your opponents AI doesnt stick a leg out and auto clear the ball.
Ritesh Thapa what does this even mean ? Ive played fifa since 1997, and Ive never gave EA any money through fifa points and never will. I don’t play UT because I can see how and pay to win the game mode is and how EA manipulate the game for max profits.
popcorn yeah you are right , wasnt meant to be in order of importance. The slow servers make all the other issues 100% worse. When the gameplay is slow the skill gap is almost gone completely.
I agree with you completely. However, I don’t think next FIFA is going to change much, this type of gameplay where defensive AI is op and attacking is garbage makes the game a lot more pay to win which ultimately benefits EA.
OmarChobots Oh dont get me wrong none of this will change. As long as EA profit increases they dont give 2 craps about their game rating or how much the community hated them. For every person who gives up on Fifa theres another new 5 players spending money on Fifa points. Really anyone who has worked to be a good player like myself, first fifa in 1997 and now I can play at a very high level, you are now penalised for being so much better at the game than newer players, new players losing and getting smashed constantly isnt good for profits.
much more realistic, yes. is it more fun though? at least for me it isn't, but you sure need to get used to it first to be able to enjoy it. definitely a better game than fifa, no doubt, but there are pros and cons to both games, some parts of fifa are more fun or more interactive than pes and the other way around. also, remember that realism is not always a priority. for example gran turismo is a much better racing simulator than need for speed, however none of my friends want to play it because they don't have enough patience or enthusiasm to learn how to play it, at the same time all of them would play need for speed for at least half an hour.
Unfortunately the difference between what we have now and a well-designed game is the horde of defensive 14 year olds who: 1. Worship professional pack openers 2. Think that they'll become the next Tekks 3. Only know this current generation of shitty EA sports games (Madden has very similar issues) They don't have the patience to not buy the game in September when they know it will be broken, or not buy packs, and they're way too psychologically attached to the game to expect better from it
Yea but there kids? They don’t know that we have to boycott a game to see change, it shouldn’t come down to that in the first place. Ea are just complete money whores they don’t give a fuckkkkkk about the gameplay which is unique in comparison to other games. Obviously they have to make a profit but it shouldn’t mean that the community and gameplay is completely ignored
Hass 770 People are always going to complain, no matter what the game is like. In this case and in the case of most sports games, the complaining is warranted.
Fifa stopped being fun when it became a cashcow for EA, the fact someone can spend £1000 on packs in this game and not get a single player from the top 5 or 10 players in the game is mind blowing
@beto.BRK games i also have one in fifa but goddamit it was not fun to get it, just replace tge black balls with the fifa equivalent, and still, i can stress enought how boring it was to get it
I've been following FUT since it's inception. They spent all the time in the world trying to end the FUT coin buying market out of game, when they should've just allowed people to buy fifa coin in game. Not fifa points, fifa coin. I should be able to drop a 20 or a 40 to get a loot chest of coin. So I can go out and buy a ronaldo. either way they're still making money, only the consumer get some actual satisfaction.
@@khalidahmed5624 i know that's the bullshit in fifa now you need to look at agility strengt wf in older fifa you need pace and everybody could play the game and have fun
Mate you are absolutely right to everything. Let me add this...Actually, when dynamic difficulty is by your side your teammates create runs like crazy, when is by other side you are just trying to find out what is wrong (the opponent does party at that time of course). I wanna say that there is "result handling" by when the game decides who is going to be the winner triggers extra teammate runs. For people they don't believe just capture a game that you felt nice and watch the "no triggered behavior of your teammates", then capture a game that you feel that was not enjoyable and compare the attacking attitude of your teammates (everyone is standing and watching and the triggered run seems delayed). This is the first thing that they MUST change, 2nd is ... or remove packs or increase pack weight DRAMATICALLY, meaning give great players to gamers to enjoy team rotation style and be able to achieve EASILY the most "gameplay pleasurable" players of the game. For example, WE pay FULL price for this game so WHY, WHY, WHY you shouldn't be able to feel how is to OWN (let the draft case down) a Gullit or a Ronaldo or at least a Dalglish or Eusebio. Like so we can send the message to EA.
Yeah I gave up ultimate team when they started giving out special cards for everything like Madden. Plus the many defensive glitches just made online 1on1 modes a game of russian roulette where you're waiting for a defender's tackle to just phase through his opponent. I realized all I want from FIFA is an 06 era career mode but it'll never happen. I've been playing PES ever since.
FIFA 14 was my last game, I'd played every FIFA game until then. Will straight up never buy another EA game ever again. They put minimal effort into these games.
You are so terrible fifa can’t do anything right just look at the graphics compared to fifa 14 look at the content!!! Everybody had a shit gold rare team in fifa and yes maybe you remember all the good times but i bet you had a lot of rage moments in fifa 14 but you just forgot
@@rgikwak2252 its 100% more fun when people don't have god tier squads with 5 prime icon moments but, like fifa 17, with rare gold players (81-85 rated) who where very usable until march. im not saying they didn't got some good cards like informs or some icons, but not every team had gullit and ben yedder player of the month in their team
Rgi Kwak Cheap silvers and golds are the most fun thing ultimate team ever had. Making legends from names nobody has ever heard of and adding such a variety and skill gap to the game. You can’t compete with cheap fast players anymore, it’s all pay to win.
Oh shit Neal, the tactical genius behind the 5-2-1-2. I stopped playing this game a week ago because I got fed up. The Meta being pass the ball to the striker, turn and shoot every single game with a 5x WF. This game is toxic.
I’m sure Neals new daily meta tactics that are meta and have meta depth and meta width will fix this. Don’t forget Neal’s favorite and famous long ball meta tactic. The only meta thing on your channel is your style to click bait kids
I get always depressive when everything goes wrong on some matches like one match everything goes great and other match every pass goes to the opponent
You know why that was done, right? It condenses the skill gap, makes the game more simplistic to play. All they care about is making the game as casual as possible, to increase microtransactions sales. Forget about the franchise, it's only going one way, each new game will be more simplistic than the last.
What I don’t understand is that players that spend money on packs have a better chance to land better players. Make better players have better movements and you’re making it pay to play. Which is technically what they want
Simple as that. EA are pretty open on their stance in regard to consumer appreciation. They never have and never will give a shit about whether or not people enjoy the game. As long as they keep making profits then why bother fixing anything. Capitalism sucks ass.
Last Fifa I'm ever gonna buy , I'm impressed with Pes that how much they have developed in the career mode and here Fifa is same year making transfers and not respecting Career mode for the people who love to play it
@@julencalvo3451 I mean , gameplay is the most important thing , I'm not buying a football game to open packs , listen to the songs and scroll through the menus
So true!! Another thing I miss is crossing, and actually being able to score from headers, without the striker having to be completely unmarked in the box..
Yeaah! Finally! Somebody who said it. I love a good header in football. No matter if it's in FIFA or i.r.l., but in this game players with 99 heading accuracy who are not having any pressure on them, miss headers from 3m.. it's bullshit.
YES!! I used to always score headers in other fifas so I would cross the ball and get a goal 15 percent of the time but now it’s like 5 percent it’s impossible unless they are wide open
I'd LOVE to play with strikers like Cavani, Lewandowski, Higuain, Aduriz, Ibrahimović, Klose, Müller, etc. But nowadays you MUST have 95+ pace, agility, balance and 5☆ wf/sm. :S
I remember playing FIFA 17. I was 14 years old and had a really average team, but I was able to compete in Division 5/6 (back when we had seasons). Not excellent, I know, but I had fun even when losing, especially when I used Fut Birthday Adrian Ramos, whipping in crosses which he usually headed in. I really miss this. Since FIFA 19, I feel like the game and its community is pure toxicity. Really sad, actually.
Out of Nostalgia, I just went to look at some of the cards I used to love in FIFA 17 on Futhead, and looked at the comments. No toxicity and people complaining that "hE iS oNlY 3 StAr WeAk FoOt", but mainly positivity. I think we'll never have this kind of mentality amongst the community ever again tbh.
The stationary clip part is spot on. There’s too many times where I’m trying to attack or build one and I just have players standing still and walking so it’s so easy to defend and mark them.
that is fifa 20. i dont even think it is the PAY2WIN aspect anymore since its so easy to get good cards these days. but the fact that NO ONE makes runs. like they just stand there and forget they are on the field?!?! even the mbappes, neymar, ronaldo, messi. all SUCK because of this. also i miss the time where you could still use golds and silvers man, now it is nothing but TOTS, TOTY, and god knows what else.
Excellent video! You've just found the problems that I couldn't describe. I've played many hundreds of hours with 11, 13, 14, 16 from the 'more modern' games, and I think the biggest diffrence between a FIFA 16 and a FIFA 20 game is that I'm not at control anymore. As you said in the video, pressing was an art back in the day. Not just pressing, but defending itself as well. Also in FIFA 16 I was able to play out from the back even with a lower tier team, because there were a great amount of player movements and the pass went the way I wanted. Don't get me wrong, there were mistakes as well but those were literal mistakes, not AI generated 'mistakes'. If YOU made a mistake by waiting for a ball to come, or just chosing a wrong man for a pass, you were punished for YOUR mistake. Now the gameplay decides if your pass will be executed well or not. Also in terms of attacking in FIFA 16 I was able to use SOOO MANY tacticts that were efficient. For example I always played with Man City and I prefered the 4-3-3 line-ups. I could use the wider formation to make my CMs to exploit the halfspaces, or to make run-ups with my fullbacks with a more narrow 4-3-3 (4-3-2-1). But apart from these I could use a 4-1-4-1 or some kind of 4-2-3-1 with more or less the same result. The most important part of a winning team were you, who played the game. In FIFA 20 apart from the narrow 4-3-3 (4-3-2-1) almost all of the formations are worthless (for me at least). The players just won't make runs, you have no dynamic pass options. If you add the fact that there are a plenty of scripted scenarios when you are basically out of control, it's not surprising if the players are disappointed. Back in the day you could edit formations, there was a quite big amount of possibilities to form every position exactly as you wished. Now you have like three options to decide what mentality should the player follow. In my opinion this is also one more evidence that the control is taken out of the player's hand, and it is given to the game engine. And finally if I look at a gameplay from FIFA 18 onwards, the whole thing just doesn't look good. The players are sliding on the pitch, the ball movement is so unrealistic.This new game engine is just a completely wrong way. FIFA 16 (PC version) felt like heaven compared to the new ones. I mean there are some important improvements in FIFA 20 like in career mode the AI uses its strongest team if it can, or the more consistent AI teams during a league season, but the gameplay itself is such a big downgrade. It is so bad that I decided to put down the game and look for something else. Hopefully, one day they will do something about it.
After realizing that I was spending more than 10H a week playing this game with maybe 30 minutes total of pleasure. I understood that I was hooked. SBC, TOTS this shit is like a drug. What's the point when all people's do is pass the ball to Ben yedder in the box, turn around and shoot. I stopped playing a week ago and it's so much better.
i feel you man. Haven't bought Fifa20 because the same shit was happening on 19. Playing the game isn't fun anymore, it just makes mad and instead of being relaxed i feel stressed afterwads
vision is everything in football, fifa 20 has literally removed all sense of vision, i was wondering why i find it so shit, and this video made me understand exactly why
George Mocanu are you dumb? In real life, people dont stand up and wait for the ball. They are moving all game. They only stand still for half time and 90min whistle. They make runs all game, move into open spaces. Its not AI training wheels, its the damn sport of football!
Vision, Movement off the ball, playing the ball in to open space etc... is all the stuff I was taught when playing Soccer growing up. Seeing EA not even do that right, it kind of just sucks honestly. It’s sad
That's just the way I was telling my friend this game has changed so much. I remember playing FIFA 17, using offensive midfielders and the would get to the box and attack the available space. In this year's game, it's impossible or almost impossible to have a cm/cdm to attack the space and do a goal from just a surprise. The game is predictable, boring and frustrating. It's amazing how players like 96 immobile feels so much worse than an 87 Ben yedder, its shit. There is no passion, you don't have the excitement of trying different players, because if you don't stick to the meta you are getting hammered. I remember playing FIFA 16 been in Division 1 and winning it a lot of times due to the dynamic attack and defence you could have. Now, as you say the only way to press is with the fucking dynamic tactics, I could even say that even losing in old fifas, could be satisfactory in comparison to today's game loses. Because, you could see sometimes how amazing was to put under pressure your rival, and just enjoying the game having such an enthusiastic experience
David Alejandro Torrado Guzmán that line “if you don’t stick to the meta you’re getting hammered” is exactly why I don’t play UT anymore. I used to love trying all the cheap and high end tots and being able to enjoy them as much as each other. Don’t even get me started on silvers.. like does anyone know the point in silver teams anymore?
Mr Armour Same. I played UT with no money put in for about 5 years and didn’t play anything else but now.... now I just play seasons because it’s way more leveled and if you’re a more skilled player you have a better chance of winning
Space Windu ohh believe me bro season is totally different than ut... in seasons I’ve managed to hit div 2 with all this delay and slow server and slow gameplay without being relagated once.. In ut rivals.. Div 8 feels like div 4 and the amount of momentum and bs unfair chances my opponents gets just baffles me completely and made me questions ea’s bullshitness soo much.. Also don’t even get me started on how I face div 1-3 players with their expensive icons like Gullit, vieira in div 8..I mean my team is good but nowhere near to the quality of those teams
Space Windu EXACTLY. I couldn’t agree more. Literally stopped at div 5 on FUT. I tried seasons and what do you know, div 1 and never been relegated since.
@@arsenalatletigoldenera bruh EVERYONE has a god squad with meta players. i dont even mind playing good teams but EVERY GAME?!?! i was always in div 3 and wanted to see if it is really as bad as people make it out to be. i kid you not people in div 7/8/9/10 have better teams then in div 3 or 4. how in the sweet mother of god is that fair. also FIFA 20 is just boring man like with fifa 7 and before i always had fun playing the game and wanted to play the game. now? i just cant be asked anymore because it is THAT shit..
This is such an amazing piece of analysis, big up man. The general theme that people had all year was that defensive AI was what was being boosted every iteration. But the reality turns out to be that offensive AI has basically been removed to make it seem like there have been huge improvements in the game. It's almost like a half baked product that the coders were so crunched on time working on the 50-50 moments that they could not figure out the appropriate changes in defensive AI and so as a last resort to counter that and make it seem like a new product, they dumbed down offensive AI.
Bro, this is the best Fifa video i have seen, it exposes EA's laughable gameplay in Fifa20, and explains why there are soooo many custom tactics/formations videos uploaded every day! People are trying to figure out how to actually make the players move. I used to enjoy making videos on Fifa, now i have to force myself to play, its just not fun anymore. I would pay money to watch the development team to sit down watch this video and try and give explanations as to why the is such a massive difference in gameplay. Fifa20 - Zero skill gap - Boring as F***!
I used to be a FIFA creator, like 2 years ago...I was known for really attacking and creative play, high pressure quick reaction football that was pretty nice to watch (online and career mode). I posted a video saying id come back for FIFA 20....1 month in i realized unless i want to create the most boring and repetitive game play footage possible ii need to revert my decision.... needless to say i have not uploaded any content on FIFA 20. i mean as amazingly easy on the eye dragback,dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, ball roll near post goals are, i figured after 10,000 of those my audience may get a tad bored....
I agree with you, I only watch a pro hungarian player & streamer, how can show to the community a nice gameplay, with 5* skill moves, otherwise is so boring the gameplay, the WL is horrible with no skill meta kids, 5*wf, far corner shots, glitching etc.
Nailed it. This the most insightful and knowledgeable Fifa content out there. You have managed to show in detail with clear examples what I have only managed to express with anger with the direction the game has decided to go in. Fifa 17 is so organic the improvement to offensive a.i. also allows the defensive a.i. to be more reactive, the whole game flows better than the clunky predictable gameplay we have seen in recent editions. Fighting against the game is not a skill gap I enjoy, much rather players have freedom and be judged on a more reactive skill set.
it s not about being fun , it s about being real , no arcadey feeling, no assisting, and the feeling of joy when dribbling passing or scoring, whithout any fckin moves, combos or rigged gameplay , that s what real fun is
Very put together as usual, great job Stallion. I think adding the dynamic tactics was the reason for offensive AI being this bad. Edit: In fifa 17 when you lose to a good player you can feel how good he is due to his skill in marking the runs your players making and how he beat your defenders In 20 you don't know if the guy who beat you is a good player or bad player because everyone play the same game(drop back, 1 depth, team press, counter attack, punt the ball forward and pray the deflictions go your way)
I remember my struggles in fifa 17 was to time my passes accurately because everyone was making amazing runs...in fifa 20 simple 1-2 passing doesn't exist I have to back to the cdms to waste time to beg someone to make one run... pathetic!
This is a really good video pointing out the garbage offense AI. Another thing I wanna point out that ruins the game was the heading nerf. Now, don’t get me wrong, I actually love it. Fifa 19 heading was broken and I prefer it this way BUT, headers were a direct counter to drop back. If the opponent is too hard to break down, then crossing is an option. Since it’s no longer a reliable option, drop back is rampant. I think they should keep the heading the way it is EXCEPT when the opponent turns on a drop back tactic, you should get a heading boost to combat that.
Bashz25 A1 i think messi’s agility being viable is more fit for a video game because crossing is hold x and hold b, goal. dribbling to a position to score actually takes ability. but that’s just my opinion on it.
jaylonw_ you should still be able to cross it though, bear in mind that this is a FOOTBALL game, having virtually no viable heading mechanism is absurd
Jamie L well yea, fifa 20 is far over the edge. but the crossing should be less assisted, and if a striker gets his head on the ball it should be more accurate.
Nerfed heading was one of the dumbest ideas ever. Of course it shouldn't be as OP as it was in FIFA 14 or 19 but God dammit headers should go in if they're well executed. At least you should be able to hit it on target
That’s actually amazing you’re saying this cuz I’ve been telling my friends for months that fifa 17 was by far the best fifa in terms of pure gameplay and how it felt yet I couldn’t explain exactly why. The precision dribbling and the ground shots I thought were awesome and I wish they brought them back as well. Being able to collect the ball while approaching 2 defending closing in on you fast from some kind of team press and using an extremely tight dribble to squeeze through them quickly just felt awesome and deserved. Ground shots were always a reasonable go to when AI’s were blocking too many shots. The ground shot more often then not fit your shots underneath and past opposing players outstretched legs and torsos allowing you to actually feel like you’re being rewarded for adjusting to the opposing teams defense.
i didn't, it's all on my cchannel already :D Like I mentioned though, I wanted to focus purely on gameplay, and this aspect of gameplay is not necessarily the most important in terms of competitiveness, but i think it is in terms of fun. Impossible to have fun with dead team mates who don't move, and in a game where the best way to press is to let the CPU do it.
The game looks so goofy when you play from kick off or something and the only players that move out of their starting formation are the passer and the receiver, all the others literally stood like a statue
when i play the game with my friends, i often complain " damn, they dont move, i dribble and the rest just watching, no support, no movement and at the end get tackled"... Especially LM - RM positions... even i select "come short & cut inside" they just stop by the line... I thought my tactics was the problem... now i get it. Thanks for the video !
The ACTUAL downfall of fifa is the slight time delay on movement between analog and player. FIFA 13 was the last game before it changed. Go play it, then play 14 and tell me I’m wrong.
ive been saying this since fifa 18! the past three years of fifa had no creativity and the gamplay has been tragic! talk about the shooting next, i hit the post at least 5 times a game...its a joke. Its completely rigged
True bro i was thinking why i was soo good in fifa 18 and i was a division 1 player in fifa 18, i skipped fifa 19 and i started fifa 20 but in fifa 20 when i started the game i couldn't do anything.. i noticed so many errors made by my defenders, rebounds 45 minute and 90 minute goals ruined it for me.. i was the type of player to see a run made by my players and get the ball to them no matter what.. but i noticed the ai stopped doing that in fifa 20.. rip me I'm now a division 8 player :'(
@@DicemanYT btw, doesn't matter ehat division rank do you have nowadays, they ruined this also, with icon swaps, and lot of hard objectives, and people go in lower divisons to complete than grinding back....this is awful
The Problem is the way of scoring goals. Combinations, passes, dribblings which lead to an 1vs1 vs the goalie should be the situations where you have an 80%chance to score a goal. Instead we have stupid, non skill based drag bag/turnaround in front of goal and shoot from every angle with meta players to have a high chance of scoring.
I've been saying this for months but a part of me always had that whisper of a doubt that it was just me and i was making excuses for not being good enough...very nice to see this video, albeit after i have already stopped playing the game. but its great to have such clear examples of the shit I've been boring my friends with for months with my rants
It's funny because they call it a skill gap but the only people who benefit from this are the low IQ players. They game is constantly cheating in their favor and their egos refuse to allow them to believe that it isn't them that's doing good. This is actually prevalent in many games nowadays. It creates mental stagnation due to people never having to get better to see positive results. In my opinion it's a microcosm of the modern world we live in. Convice dumb people they are already smart and skilled so that they never actually improve.
hey man, i would like to put some subtitles on , i´m from Brazil and your video it´s exactly what i was thinking a couple weeks ago and Brazil has a huge community of FIFA, so i would to everyone to see it
I guess that the most dynamic movement that FIFA has ever gotten was around FIFA 13/14 with Borussia Dortmund. I remember playing with them and having an option to pass the ball ALL the time back in those days.
Did fifa drinking game in 2016 with my friend with Vodka. Every goal, foul, corner, free throw, free kick you got punished by one shot. Goal outside 16m was like 3 shots, freekick 5, my friend scored freekick from 40 meters and i have to drink 20 shots. I was 0-2 down half time (7min halves) and i lost my vision. I could only see green screen in tv, nothing else. Next time we changed Vodka to beer😂
Mine say “Ref, why isn’t anyone making runs, wtf was that, and BS/bullshit.” You’d be dead of alcohol poisoning before halftime. Don’t try that drinking game
Ik nobody is gonna read this but i was bored of warzone and had decided to play fifa for the first time in months. Honestly, i tried my absolute hardest to avoid FUT but I couldn't since every other mode in this game is disgraceful and unplayable. I hope on FUT and long story short, every team i played against is at least a 190 and despite me being better skill wise than all of the, i managed to get relegated from division 4 to nearly division 9. Basically, if ur not gonna invest neither all your time or money into this game, you are unable to play. Simple.
That’s just me i bought the game cause it’s now like €10 again because I lost my disc, and literally every player I played against in div 5 was so shit but all the tots with 95+ stats on everything is just mad. It was just better when we all had a shit silver/gold team in fifa 13/14
Bro I been feeling same exact way Fifa 20 is like a movie I watched 1000times and its so stactic and imo least fun football game is history along with 19 . 17 and 18 to me was amazing for fluidid games and I liked to say the Football mind felt at home more . Now I'm playing same player over and over no learning and team press is a joke
I knew something was off when I first played 20 but I never could pin down what it was. It just felt so slow and boring. BUT NOW YOU'VE SOLVED IT. Thanks for your work on this
This is a crazy good video. I remember playing all the fifas and i stopped enjoying it at fifa 18 and i thought i just out grew the game since i was omw to college. But this video made me realize why i dont enjoy it. I remember when fullbacks used to make big overlapping runs for big lobbed through balls across the pitch, but now in fifa 20 theres loads of space to run into and they dont do anything
Hey Italian Stallian. Love the Video! The thing that you are looking for that was removed was speed, both in buildup and in the final third. When Dynamic Tactics (which removed the skill gap for tactics) was removed. They emphasized, with over speed. and speed became generalized. Fast Build Up has your fullbacks into locked positions (when not on stay back) they don't do anything until you manually trigger a run. I know you said that this style of FIFA gives way for possession hoarders... But the truth is, the real players that try to emulate possession such as myself, were actually impaired and shadow possession players were created. The 4-3-3 was meant to counter to 4-4-2 and its 4-2-3-1 variant, yet 4-2-3-1 is the most dominant in this football simulation. I ran a 3-4-3 formation in FIFA 17 (FUT Seasons and (Non-Fut) Online Seasons with 55 and 65% posesssion respectively.) 4231 People can rack up to 60% possession against me with ease in FIFA 20, all because of the stuff you mentioned. Oddly enough I was playing FIFA 08 on my PC ( I am a fan of classics) and there was feature that I think needs to be brought back into FIFA... Man Marking. Where you know who is marking who, and simply add a feature on how tight you would like that person to be marked. FIFA needs to get better. Guardiolas Barcelona crunched the middle like tomorrow with a tactic like overload ball side and team press for 4 years. I run it in FIFA and my players are tired by half? How come speed was taken out of the users hands when it comes to build up? How can 1 formation be so dominant? Irrespective of Rating and Level? Cant tactics have a lite version like the one we have now but bring back an advanced version for the hardcore players and when I mean an advanced version. I mean like FIFA 13/14. I can choose the run patterns, the workrates, Freeform in Attack, and Build Up, etc... Lastly, Lets call a spade a spade. How can so many goals comes from the 45th and 90th? An abnormal amount. I am not even talking against me anymore. The amount of times I sigh a sigh of relief when I ave possession of the ball and look to see that the clock is 44:01 or 89:01. I know I am going to get at the minimum a shot on target, a high chance of a rebound, and 6 or 7 times out of 10. A goal, and sometimes two! FIFA needs to be better. Enough is Enough. If we carry this nonsense into the next gen such as PS5, it would be insane. The simulation gamers want to play simulation football. This arcade stuff, This lack of skill gap stuff, This tactics for dummies stuff, leave it for FIFA Street or VOLTA.
Thank you for presenting what I've thought about Fifa 20 since it came out. At first I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but you hit the nail on the head. I'm someone who relies on quick intelligent movement to break teams down with quick passing, and Fifa 20 has nearly finished off that style of play. There's so many matches where I just find the movement to be so uncoordinated and basic that I lose interest in playing, and you just come up against someone that is happy to sit back and counter with pacy wingers knowing you can't break them down and they rack up a scoreline that you know doesn't reflect the true skill gap
@Italian Stallion, I've discovered too in FIFA 19 too... It got me on my nerves to see that. Other thing I've notice is the attackers are most of the time too late while you just hold the ball (not running), they're not trying to run... If you give them a pass through they're late... If you try to move and give the pass, the ball will be like something that has been accelerated itself (even if it the button was not pressed hard) and the ball goes right to the keeper or other defender...
The whole FIFA I experienced this, but I couldn't lay a finger on it. After seeing this, I can't play any game of FIFA anymore. This weekend I finished Silver 1, because the gameplay was SOOO boring and annoying. Squad Battles is the only game mode that is a little bit of fun. I really wanted that Gueye objective, but I can't manage myself to do it (even when I have red 93 Neymar). I just can't attack.
@@josuevelasquez24 I know. It's just disgusting. Only facing the same, boring, meta squads 24/7.. Back in FIFA 15 or something, I had a Turkish League squad. Muslera 83, Koybasi 73 (a ** silver card who was my best defender), Skrtel 81, Chedjou 82, Gönul 79, Hutchinson 80, Özyakup 81, N'Doye 77, Podolski 81, Eto'o 83/Van Persie 83 and Sow 78/Quaresma 83. The whole year I played with this team (and with upgrades like if Quaresma, Sow, etc). I really enjoyed it. I can remember I named my attack Eto'SowDolski (like MSN & MFS). But now you just HAVE TO USE players with 5☆ weak foot and skills, because otherwise you're too predictable. And that's only because the attacking AI movements is so terrible. Hoping it will become better one year, but I don't expect that to happen.. unfortunaly..
@@rubenboullart8340 Same man, i was hoping to get Elite for the first time this fifa as i was getting gold 1 consistently last fifa but somehow it seems i have got worse :(. If it isnt for connectivity issues or 45min-90min or extra time goals i most definately could have reached elite by now but im just sat in gold 3.
Man I've been feeling like this for years now, I grew up playing football and football games with my brothers and we start feeling weird about fifa a few years ago at the point of no playing it anymore. We agree that something had changed and the game suck, but I could never put it into words and explain it like you just did, EXCELLENT work man. I hope they fix it someday and we could get back to enjoy FIFA, it's bad feeling when you can't enjoy anymore a game that you basically grew up with. EA pls give us back our childhood
End of the story is that they should copy the script file from Fifa 17 to 20 and we would be playing a way better game. I mean castro would still scream opening 35k packs for a million fifa points and wouldn't even notice that the game is different.
I swear i was just thinking of this yesterday while playing fifa , i got so discouraged from being down 2-1 and no one was making runs i had to put fast build up and that did nothing cuz the AI is so dead it literally opens up one player that immediately gets covered while everyone else looks , so limited and not fun to play
The comparison is MADNESS, downloading Fifa 17 right now :) Fifa 20 is really boring, always the same and really no movement. Great video! Hope a lot of people see this!!!
@@lolsucks3599 What was the last good fifa? I played since before 2000 and i cant tell. I know that i started hating it in 18, then 19 was worse and now 20 is maybe not as buggy as 19 but soooooooooooo boring.
I knew there was no offensive movement in fifa 20, everyone just stands and watches the ball unless specifically triggered to move. Takes all the fun out of fifa, making the game very slow, unexciting and just shitty.
Great video. I believe the reason behind all these changes is that FIFA20 is trying to encourage people to open packs, especially those who spends more (likely with lower FIFA skills so they can only pay to win). Skill gap or competitiveness is just a bait, more money gives u more win. If EA wants to cater the gameplay for a specific group of people, they would 100% prioritize those who spend the most. With the current state of FIFA20, the gameplay is so linear that with a pacier team, EVERYBODY wins more often regardless of their FIFA skills. Money ==> pace ==> win. Ez game! FIFA has retained those who really don't understand football/FIFA to be competitive, but are willing to pay to win.
Can't pretend I have much to add. Thank you for pointing this out, I wonder what their thought process was when they changed this. Also, I know your thing is passing and movement, but has anyone in the community taken a look at how the nerfing of skill moves (against the AI defenders specifically) has impacted the game? I know it's niche, I'm just personally interested.
Fifa 17 was my last fifa.(i had so much fun with it, it was perfect) I ve got fifa 20 for free and it was shit, they have to pay me to play the last ones. I love your video, very accurate.
@@MB-jy7nz if it means I win the game I will, you can enjoy playing "beautiful" "attractive" football and getting smoked 8 - 0 ontop of 50 game losing streak.
There are some really great points here. FIFA is in a pretty bad place... The only thing that keeps me playing is making a series around Pulisic for my channel.
0:51 bro, my friend made me play FIFA 20 and 21 and for some reason everything felt off I always kept complaining and I thought maybe I've become rusty since I only played older titles but your videos shed more light on why over the recent years FIFA becomes less fun
I still love playing fifa, recently I started the 10th season with bayern munich on legendary. But I miss the old times, like Fifa 08 when you had challenges to unlock achievements, like different regions in the world where you must choose a team and the computer gives you a challenge like "achieve 80% passing with player xy" or "score 2 goals in the first half". There were 10 or 11 different levels of challenges with about 10 single challenges each. Nowadays you have achievements like "score a goal by a free kick with a distance of over 28 meter" how ridiculos that is!
Great vid, bro. If I'm allowed to give you my 2 cents, I wanna say that you are going to be really really disappointed in the future because that offensive AI is not coming back for sure. How do I know ??? Now hear me out for a moment, that offensive AI made two formations not regularly used IRL became two of the strongest and most meta formations in FIFA 17 which were 41212 Narrow and 4321. The combination of one of those two formation with the offensive AI enabled people to play a run 'n gun play style, which was very fast and not realistic. In short, that offensive AI was so great that few people makes OP things out of it and it was too fast and too furious for a lot of casuals since the skill gap was just too wide. This is not what EA wants, that only a few people being able to compete with the Gorillas and the Dossarys. EA wants to make FIFA an e-sport that appeals to more people so these people decide to be a FIFA pro player. Large player pool means longevity to the franchise as an e-sport and more variety as an entertainment. So the run 'n gun play style has to go in order for the Gorillas and the Dossarys to be nerfed and the casuals to be buffed. OP things need to go in order for FIFA to be "balanced" and e-sport-worthy. The fact that they even choose to make the gameplay even slower and passing more RNG this year, is the ultimate telltale sign why we won't see it coming back, like ever. They want to make it more realistic and with more error, they can't achieve that by having intelligent player runs, actively making themselves available for a pass, at your disposal........
I hardly played fifa 19 because of how shocking it was & only played fifa 20 till January because the gameplay is embarrassing beyond belief. If fifa 21 isn’t a big improvement think I’ll be done with it forever.
What a fantastic video. I’ve jus come across it and it brilliantly describes my frustration with 20 and 21. I thought I was going mad not understanding why players were static. This makes it obvious. It’s not fun if no one moves other than when you make them.
I am absolutely MIND blown by the support. Thank you all for liking, commenting, and sharing.
absolute outstanding video, and as a avid fifa fan that gets fustrated and can never pin point the true reasons other than blame delay as to why i hate this game, i think this is up there if not the main reason.. watching my strikers just stand behind a defender for 90mins is infuriating, but i always blame delay.
Was that Perzian helping you out? Shout out to him as well!
Hey man do you think fifa 18 has all the AI movement you can see on fifa 17? was it present in that fifa?
I agree with you for the most part. However, all that can change once DDA kicks in. For instance you see how in the fifa 20 map everything is stagnant? The same way I if you are dominating someone and dda kicks in their favor, they can put down their controller and you'll see their players are very active in the map irregardless. They are man making, chasing players, even auto tackling. Essentially EA takes out normal behavior and play from the game and allows user to achieve them based on what's happening during the match. If you are dominating, the algorithm can pick up on it and change the team's behavior, which involves speed, football logic, runs into space, accuracy etc...If someone is losing they algorithm buff those stats and sliders for the user, to the point the person can put down their controller and you are inside their box and still can't get a shot.
You've been taking the words right out of my mouth in these past revealing videos. I cannot believe how this hasn't received more attention. Keep up the good work Stallion!! 🙌
Analogy:
FIFA 17 movement = Arsenal '04
FIFA 20 movement = Arsenal '20
Adam Geiger Jr Ahaha fair assessment
FACTTSSS
As an arsenal fan this is so true.
ironically arsenal is damn hard to beat in fifa20.
I felt so old understading it
I just don’t understand how Dani parejo can outpace ousmane dembele then run the whole distance to my box, get tackled 5 times but keeps possession, shoots gets saved then bangs in the rebound as the other keeper makes 35 saves
frustration is crazy
RT
The rebounds and blocks of shots is maddening.
@C-L-k I still don't understand why they fix it
@C-L-k tbf they did a better job with the whole pace thing in FIFA 20. You can actually ran past opponents when you have the ball now. Don't get me wrong, it's still bad, but nowhere near as bad as the previous FIFA's when it comes to pace
I’m afraid we’ve lost ultimate team now lads, the new wave of kids jumping on ultimate team have grown up watching pack openings on UA-cam rather than actual football so their perceptions are skewed. As long as this pay2win environment stands the gameplay will continue to decline..
You know who you sound like ? Every single generation that came before you, continuing the tradition of finding something wrong with the following 'new wave'. These kids aren't the problem it's the game, other companies have made games that are great w Identical player bases.
Joseph Bennett the kids are the byproduct of UA-camrs who have been giving EA thousands of pounds for years. They think that it’s an acceptable thing to do. Until the youtubers follow the KSI route (Refusing to play the game)
Guys idk if I am part of the NEW generation bcs im 13 but i have played since 2013
I've always been saying FUT is pay2win... there's no point in getting Ronaldo when you can literally buy a totw chump with similar stats... its just the clout of having rare card and icons
Joseph Bennett I never said there’s anything wrong with the new wave of kids, they are simply a product of the unfortunate environment. The environment created by EA predominantly.. that’s the real problem
fifa 20 is like fifa for kids anyone can go score keeping a clean sheet in the most impressive thing to me lol
facts
Defending impossible sometimes. Might as well concede, get the ball back, then go and score yourself.
I'm surprised you think that way. It's pretty easy to defend in this and the point is given in the video. The AI in offence is stupid. They don't make any effort to free themselves up. Which is why I have a lot of 1-0 victories. This is much more evident in pro clubs. When a team scores, especially in the higher divisions, it's almost impossible to get a goal back. Shittiest FIFA by far.
Then it just means you are bad at defending. I defend pretty well against AI and against others. Can beat legendary without conceding. I have never conceded more than 3 goals in a match.
Defending in the game is more challenging but doable. I really enjoy it for the most part. There are some of the old defending problems as always but defending in FIFA 20 require skill and discipline which is a fun challenge to me
this guy just talks nothing but facts. how can fifa go backwards. my gameplay in fifa depends a lot on movement and thru balls etc. I wonder why I hate fifa 20
Same here bro.I relay on IA movement since I'm a noob doing skill moves and tricks. When they're not moving matches are hard
@@sabrosso1 the same until fifa 16 where using skills was not so necessary i was very good.. In that bullshit game one yes.. One no.. Two yes.. One no.. 3 yes.. 4 no..

Me too
Damn we all thought FIFA 17 was getting bad, now looking at that gameplay it looks like the greatest game ever compared to 20. EA's really messing this up
My favorite is fifa 15
Fifa 17 was a great game, the last good Fifa
True lmao. When I was playing FIFA 17 I thought that was the worst football game I ever played. It still is, because I haven't played newer FIFAs. The best decision in my life.
True FIFA fan's will say FIFA 13 is the best FIFA ever
Zack-Mavin fifa 13-16 was so boring you could do nothing just play some kickoff games there was no content just make a ai yourself or even writing an own game, fifa is complicated to make its not pac man
The scary part about this is that most people are already trapped into EA's trap....they will complain every year and every day about how much the game sucks and how better the previous FIFA is compared to the current FIFA....yet these people are also the ones who will keep spending their money on this game every year..
He did buy the fifa he's complaining about
Actually most people i know like me while been playing since fifa world cup 98, all wait until it hits the EA access. I just started fifa 20 like 2 months ago. Still frustrated and I've maybe spent 14 bucks for a few starter packs. Which I normally do anyways. Highest value card I got was a Liverpool CL bench player that I don't even think Actually made the pool CL squad list. I'm not infuriated anymore on spending 60+ on a busted game. I'm infuriated now, because its practically insulting to anyone who played this game in real life. EA honestly might be on the brink of collapse if they don't fix their shit. From the looks of madden 21 a game they promised would address issues brought up by the fan base. Its not looking like they've made any effort to change. Madden 21 sounds beyond broken. Fifa 21 looks like its going to be the same. And if the game doesn't improve from its beta. Which was god awful. Then it's going to be interesting to see what happens. They lost PGA one of their staple franchises. They could easily lose fifa. People from madden are taking about a petition to break up EA and its control over NFL rights. With the following FIFA has it wouldn't shock me one bit if fans either boycott or petition as well.
Nah, never again, if I play FIFA I do it because of Ultimate Pass on Xbox and even then I can't bear to have it installed for more than a game
Your analysis of the gameplay has literally blown me away. Me and my mates couldn’t work out what was broken with this soulless cash cow until now. You sir are a legend and the Morpheus of the Fifa community. 🙇♂️
Youre not really playing then if you rely on AI players. Check out my Messi solo goals and ill show you that theres more to do in fifa by being creative
Pako_ N9ne_Jukes Mate, your playing season matches against players, who can’t defend. Of course you don’t need attacking AI.

Fifa stopped being fun because:
Scripting/handicap/momentum
Reduced skill gap
Pay to win
Removing game features that are useful for better players
You can know run sprint and shoot, these 3 commands are enough to win in this game due to dda
AI defensively better for weak players
AI attacking runs are non existent
Tackling doesn’t work
When switching to a CB the game will either put you onto the other CB or the full back.
45 &90th min goals
Kick off goals
Slow servers
Auto blocks
What happened to cancel skill move
What happened to custom set pieces
What happened to simple tricks like drags and close control being useful
What happened to holding r1+l1 for total control of your player when the ball was in the air or going out of play, fifa 19&20 it rarely works and your player just locks onto the ball.
What happened to actually having to bring your own gk out if you feel a through ball is overhit instead the gk always runs out by himself if he can get the ball first (another example of reduced skill gap)
What happened to pretend cut inside and go outside with wingers , getting into the box pass across the keeper , they made this so hard to do because poor fifa players fall for this trick every single time.
So they make simple skills to change direction harder to work properly, they make defenders agility and deceleration in these scenarios so overpowered plus when you pass across goal you have to pray your opponents AI doesnt stick a leg out and auto clear the ball.
Ritesh Thapa what does this even mean ? Ive played fifa since 1997, and Ive never gave EA any money through fifa points and never will.
I don’t play UT because I can see how and pay to win the game mode is and how EA manipulate the game for max profits.
Heading
popcorn yeah you are right , wasnt meant to be in order of importance.
The slow servers make all the other issues 100% worse.
When the gameplay is slow the skill gap is almost gone completely.
I agree with you completely. However, I don’t think next FIFA is going to change much, this type of gameplay where defensive AI is op and attacking is garbage makes the game a lot more pay to win which ultimately benefits EA.
OmarChobots Oh dont get me wrong none of this will change.
As long as EA profit increases they dont give 2 craps about their game rating or how much the community hated them.
For every person who gives up on Fifa theres another new 5 players spending money on Fifa points.
Really anyone who has worked to be a good player like myself, first fifa in 1997 and now I can play at a very high level, you are now penalised for being so much better at the game than newer players, new players losing and getting smashed constantly isnt good for profits.
EA fifa 20 is just depressing to play.

Bored FIFA gamer: ''I want a football simulator that is realistic''
PES: ''Hey''
Bored FIFA gamer: ''No''
PES: ''I'm literally that guy''
just started playing pes this year gona be streaming it on twitch .. love it so far
Antonio Gil Pes 2020 is absolute dogshit
Pes is fun offline , online modes in Pes are so boring my club is a joke if Pes creates a similar mode to UT FIFA crashes
much more realistic, yes. is it more fun though? at least for me it isn't, but you sure need to get used to it first to be able to enjoy it. definitely a better game than fifa, no doubt, but there are pros and cons to both games, some parts of fifa are more fun or more interactive than pes and the other way around.
also, remember that realism is not always a priority. for example gran turismo is a much better racing simulator than need for speed, however none of my friends want to play it because they don't have enough patience or enthusiasm to learn how to play it, at the same time all of them would play need for speed for at least half an hour.
PES has so many problems when it comes to online play, that I stopped trying for that reason alone.
Unfortunately the difference between what we have now and a well-designed game is the horde of defensive 14 year olds who:
1. Worship professional pack openers
2. Think that they'll become the next Tekks
3. Only know this current generation of shitty EA sports games (Madden has very similar issues)
They don't have the patience to not buy the game in September when they know it will be broken, or not buy packs, and they're way too psychologically attached to the game to expect better from it
Yea but there kids? They don’t know that we have to boycott a game to see change, it shouldn’t come down to that in the first place. Ea are just complete money whores they don’t give a fuckkkkkk about the gameplay which is unique in comparison to other games. Obviously they have to make a profit but it shouldn’t mean that the community and gameplay is completely ignored

Mate you are absolutely right to everything. Let me add this...Actually, when dynamic difficulty is by your side your teammates create runs like crazy, when is by other side you are just trying to find out what is wrong (the opponent does party at that time of course). I wanna say that there is "result handling" by when the game decides who is going to be the winner triggers extra teammate runs. For people they don't believe just capture a game
that you felt nice and watch the "no triggered behavior of your teammates", then capture a game that you feel that was not enjoyable and compare the attacking
attitude of your teammates (everyone is standing and watching and the triggered run seems delayed). This is the first thing that they MUST change, 2nd is ... or remove packs or increase pack weight DRAMATICALLY, meaning give great players to gamers to enjoy team rotation style and be able to achieve EASILY the most "gameplay pleasurable" players of the game. For example, WE pay FULL price for this game so WHY, WHY, WHY you shouldn't be able to feel how is to OWN (let the draft case down) a Gullit or a Ronaldo or at least a Dalglish or Eusebio. Like so we can send the message to EA.
I stop playing fut when I realized how toxic it was , At this moment i feel better and I dont get mad easily
that, my friend, is the best decision every player has ever made
me too
Ultimate Team just pisses me off.
Yeah I gave up ultimate team when they started giving out special cards for everything like Madden. Plus the many defensive glitches just made online 1on1 modes a game of russian roulette where you're waiting for a defender's tackle to just phase through his opponent. I realized all I want from FIFA is an 06 era career mode but it'll never happen. I've been playing PES ever since.
I've literally broken my Fifa19 disc and from that moment me and my pad enjoy playing on console again. This game became toxic.
100% with you. Didn't qualify for fut champs and spend an amazing weekend with gf 😅
FIFA 14 was my last game, I'd played every FIFA game until then. Will straight up never buy another EA game ever again. They put minimal effort into these games.
TCPH are you my brother’s burner account? Exact same in our household
You are so terrible fifa can’t do anything right just look at the graphics compared to fifa 14 look at the content!!! Everybody had a shit gold rare team in fifa and yes maybe you remember all the good times but i bet you had a lot of rage moments in fifa 14 but you just forgot
@@rgikwak2252 its 100% more fun when people don't have god tier squads with 5 prime icon moments but, like fifa 17, with rare gold players (81-85 rated) who where very usable until march. im not saying they didn't got some good cards like informs or some icons, but not every team had gullit and ben yedder player of the month in their team
Rgi Kwak Cheap silvers and golds are the most fun thing ultimate team ever had. Making legends from names nobody has ever heard of and adding such a variety and skill gap to the game. You can’t compete with cheap fast players anymore, it’s all pay to win.

This is true the most underrated channel on youtube, thanks for this bro, top top video
Oh shit Neal, the tactical genius behind the 5-2-1-2. I stopped playing this game a week ago because I got fed up. The Meta being pass the ball to the striker, turn and shoot every single game with a 5x WF. This game is toxic.
I’m sure Neals new daily meta tactics that are meta and have meta depth and meta width will fix this. Don’t forget Neal’s favorite and famous long ball meta tactic. The only meta thing on your channel is your style to click bait kids
I get always depressive when everything goes wrong on some matches like one match everything goes great and other match every pass goes to the opponent
Imma sell my fifa games I eBay 😂😂
You know why that was done, right? It condenses the skill gap, makes the game more simplistic to play. All they care about is making the game as casual as possible, to increase microtransactions sales. Forget about the franchise, it's only going one way, each new game will be more simplistic than the last.
preach
Absolutely. Also pushes players to use meta cards which become more expensive and thus injects more $$$ into the game.
@@lucaslonghurst so boring to see the same teams again and again. The chemistry system compounds it.
What I don’t understand is that players that spend money on packs have a better chance to land better players. Make better players have better movements and you’re making it pay to play. Which is technically what they want
Simple as that. EA are pretty open on their stance in regard to consumer appreciation. They never have and never will give a shit about whether or not people enjoy the game. As long as they keep making profits then why bother fixing anything. Capitalism sucks ass.
Last Fifa I'm ever gonna buy , I'm impressed with Pes that how much they have developed in the career mode and here Fifa is same year making transfers and not respecting Career mode for the people who love to play it
The problem with Pes is that the only good thing is the Gameplay🤷♂️

So true!! Another thing I miss is crossing, and actually being able to score from headers, without the striker having to be completely unmarked in the box..
Yeaah! Finally! Somebody who said it. I love a good header in football. No matter if it's in FIFA or i.r.l., but in this game players with 99 heading accuracy who are not having any pressure on them, miss headers from 3m.. it's bullshit.
YES!! I used to always score headers in other fifas so I would cross the ball and get a goal 15 percent of the time but now it’s like 5 percent it’s impossible unless they are wide open
I'd LOVE to play with strikers like Cavani, Lewandowski, Higuain, Aduriz, Ibrahimović, Klose, Müller, etc. But nowadays you MUST have 95+ pace, agility, balance and 5☆ wf/sm. :S
I remember playing FIFA 17. I was 14 years old and had a really average team, but I was able to compete in Division 5/6 (back when we had seasons). Not excellent, I know, but I had fun even when losing, especially when I used Fut Birthday Adrian Ramos, whipping in crosses which he usually headed in. I really miss this.
Since FIFA 19, I feel like the game and its community is pure toxicity. Really sad, actually.
Out of Nostalgia, I just went to look at some of the cards I used to love in FIFA 17 on Futhead, and looked at the comments. No toxicity and people complaining that "hE iS oNlY 3 StAr WeAk FoOt", but mainly positivity. I think we'll never have this kind of mentality amongst the community ever again tbh.
when will fifa players realise their game is a joke
The stationary clip part is spot on. There’s too many times where I’m trying to attack or build one and I just have players standing still and walking so it’s so easy to defend and mark them.
that is fifa 20. i dont even think it is the PAY2WIN aspect anymore since its so easy to get good cards these days. but the fact that NO ONE makes runs. like they just stand there and forget they are on the field?!?! even the mbappes, neymar, ronaldo, messi. all SUCK because of this.
also i miss the time where you could still use golds and silvers man, now it is nothing but TOTS, TOTY, and god knows what else.
Excellent video! You've just found the problems that I couldn't describe. I've played many hundreds of hours with 11, 13, 14, 16 from the 'more modern' games, and I think the biggest diffrence between a FIFA 16 and a FIFA 20 game is that I'm not at control anymore.
As you said in the video, pressing was an art back in the day. Not just pressing, but defending itself as well. Also in FIFA 16 I was able to play out from the back even with a lower tier team, because there were a great amount of player movements and the pass went the way I wanted. Don't get me wrong, there were mistakes as well but those were literal mistakes, not AI generated 'mistakes'. If YOU made a mistake by waiting for a ball to come, or just chosing a wrong man for a pass, you were punished for YOUR mistake. Now the gameplay decides if your pass will be executed well or not.
Also in terms of attacking in FIFA 16 I was able to use SOOO MANY tacticts that were efficient. For example I always played with Man City and I prefered the 4-3-3 line-ups. I could use the wider formation to make my CMs to exploit the halfspaces, or to make run-ups with my fullbacks with a more narrow 4-3-3 (4-3-2-1). But apart from these I could use a 4-1-4-1 or some kind of 4-2-3-1 with more or less the same result. The most important part of a winning team were you, who played the game. In FIFA 20 apart from the narrow 4-3-3 (4-3-2-1) almost all of the formations are worthless (for me at least). The players just won't make runs, you have no dynamic pass options. If you add the fact that there are a plenty of scripted scenarios when you are basically out of control, it's not surprising if the players are disappointed.
Back in the day you could edit formations, there was a quite big amount of possibilities to form every position exactly as you wished. Now you have like three options to decide what mentality should the player follow. In my opinion this is also one more evidence that the control is taken out of the player's hand, and it is given to the game engine.
And finally if I look at a gameplay from FIFA 18 onwards, the whole thing just doesn't look good. The players are sliding on the pitch, the ball movement is so unrealistic.This new game engine is just a completely wrong way. FIFA 16 (PC version) felt like heaven compared to the new ones. I mean there are some important improvements in FIFA 20 like in career mode the AI uses its strongest team if it can, or the more consistent AI teams during a league season, but the gameplay itself is such a big downgrade.
It is so bad that I decided to put down the game and look for something else. Hopefully, one day they will do something about it.
After realizing that I was spending more than 10H a week playing this game with maybe 30 minutes total of pleasure. I understood that I was hooked. SBC, TOTS this shit is like a drug.
What's the point when all people's do is pass the ball to Ben yedder in the box, turn around and shoot.
I stopped playing a week ago and it's so much better.
i feel you man. Haven't bought Fifa20 because the same shit was happening on 19. Playing the game isn't fun anymore, it just makes mad and instead of being relaxed i feel stressed afterwads
Frederic Vasconcelos truss me bro even in fifa 20 against shit players that u know u should win its like a grind
I feel you. I've literally had to set a limit for how many times I play FIFA a day. The game is TOXIC 😭
Bro you are 1000% right
i stopped playing months ago i used to play fifa all the time but i can’t deal with this garbage
This is the exact video that needed to be seen, good job man. How FIFA’s gone 10 steps backwards is mind blowing.
vision is everything in football, fifa 20 has literally removed all sense of vision, i was wondering why i find it so shit, and this video made me understand exactly why
AI making runs for you the whole game is not vision. Its trainig wheels.
George Mocanu that’s whole point. Vision comes into play and you make an intent pass
George Mocanu are you dumb? In real life, people dont stand up and wait for the ball. They are moving all game. They only stand still for half time and 90min whistle. They make runs all game, move into open spaces. Its not AI training wheels, its the damn sport of football!
Vision, Movement off the ball, playing the ball in to open space etc... is all the stuff I was taught when playing Soccer growing up. Seeing EA not even do that right, it kind of just sucks honestly. It’s sad
You say exactly what I am thinking
From FIFA 10 to FIFA 15, This was the best era for FIFA
I think FIFA 18 is good too but idk
That's just the way I was telling my friend this game has changed so much. I remember playing FIFA 17, using offensive midfielders and the would get to the box and attack the available space.
In this year's game, it's impossible or almost impossible to have a cm/cdm to attack the space and do a goal from just a surprise.
The game is predictable, boring and frustrating. It's amazing how players like 96 immobile feels so much worse than an 87 Ben yedder, its shit. There is no passion, you don't have the excitement of trying different players, because if you don't stick to the meta you are getting hammered.
I remember playing FIFA 16 been in Division 1 and winning it a lot of times due to the dynamic attack and defence you could have. Now, as you say the only way to press is with the fucking dynamic tactics, I could even say that even losing in old fifas, could be satisfactory in comparison to today's game loses. Because, you could see sometimes how amazing was to put under pressure your rival, and just enjoying the game having such an enthusiastic experience
David Alejandro Torrado Guzmán that line “if you don’t stick to the meta you’re getting hammered” is exactly why I don’t play UT anymore. I used to love trying all the cheap and high end tots and being able to enjoy them as much as each other. Don’t even get me started on silvers.. like does anyone know the point in silver teams anymore?
Mr Armour Same. I played UT with no money put in for about 5 years and didn’t play anything else but now.... now I just play seasons because it’s way more leveled and if you’re a more skilled player you have a better chance of winning
Space Windu ohh believe me bro season is totally different than ut... in seasons I’ve managed to hit div 2 with all this delay and slow server and slow gameplay without being relagated once.. In ut rivals.. Div 8 feels like div 4 and the amount of momentum and bs unfair chances my opponents gets just baffles me completely and made me questions ea’s bullshitness soo much.. Also don’t even get me started on how I face div 1-3 players with their expensive icons like Gullit, vieira in div 8..I mean my team is good but nowhere near to the quality of those teams
Space Windu EXACTLY. I couldn’t agree more. Literally stopped at div 5 on FUT. I tried seasons and what do you know, div 1 and never been relegated since.
@@arsenalatletigoldenera bruh EVERYONE has a god squad with meta players. i dont even mind playing good teams but EVERY GAME?!?! i was always in div 3 and wanted to see if it is really as bad as people make it out to be. i kid you not people in div 7/8/9/10 have better teams then in div 3 or 4. how in the sweet mother of god is that fair.
also FIFA 20 is just boring man like with fifa 7 and before i always had fun playing the game and wanted to play the game. now? i just cant be asked anymore because it is THAT shit..
This is such an amazing piece of analysis, big up man. The general theme that people had all year was that defensive AI was what was being boosted every iteration. But the reality turns out to be that offensive AI has basically been removed to make it seem like there have been huge improvements in the game. It's almost like a half baked product that the coders were so crunched on time working on the 50-50 moments that they could not figure out the appropriate changes in defensive AI and so as a last resort to counter that and make it seem like a new product, they dumbed down offensive AI.
Thanks man
Bro, this is the best Fifa video i have seen, it exposes EA's laughable gameplay in Fifa20, and explains why there are soooo many custom tactics/formations videos uploaded every day!
People are trying to figure out how to actually make the players move. I used to enjoy making videos on Fifa, now i have to force myself to play, its just not fun anymore.
I would pay money to watch the development team to sit down watch this video and try and give explanations as to why the is such a massive difference in gameplay.
Fifa20 - Zero skill gap - Boring as F***!
PES 2020 does not get old to me, love every match, its fun.
I used to be a FIFA creator, like 2 years ago...I was known for really attacking and creative play, high pressure quick reaction football that was pretty nice to watch (online and career mode). I posted a video saying id come back for FIFA 20....1 month in i realized unless i want to create the most boring and repetitive game play footage possible ii need to revert my decision....
needless to say i have not uploaded any content on FIFA 20.
i mean as amazingly easy on the eye dragback,dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, dragback, ball roll near post goals are, i figured after 10,000 of those my audience may get a tad bored....
I agree with you, I only watch a pro hungarian player & streamer, how can show to the community a nice gameplay, with 5* skill moves, otherwise is so boring the gameplay, the WL is horrible with no skill meta kids, 5*wf, far corner shots, glitching etc.
Nailed it. This the most insightful and knowledgeable Fifa content out there. You have managed to show in detail with clear examples what I have only managed to express with anger with the direction the game has decided to go in.
Fifa 17 is so organic the improvement to offensive a.i. also allows the defensive a.i. to be more reactive, the whole game flows better than the clunky predictable gameplay we have seen in recent editions. Fighting against the game is not a skill gap I enjoy, much rather players have freedom and be judged on a more reactive skill set.
appreciate the kind words man
I just quick sold all my players in my squad never felt better
it s not about being fun , it s about being real , no arcadey feeling, no assisting, and the feeling of joy when dribbling passing or scoring, whithout any fckin moves, combos or rigged gameplay , that s what real fun is
Very put together as usual, great job Stallion.
I think adding the dynamic tactics was the reason for offensive AI being this bad.
Edit: In fifa 17 when you lose to a good player you can feel how good he is due to his skill in marking the runs your players making and how he beat your defenders
In 20 you don't know if the guy who beat you is a good player or bad player because everyone play the same game(drop back, 1 depth, team press, counter attack, punt the ball forward and pray the deflictions go your way)
I remember my struggles in fifa 17 was to time my passes accurately because everyone was making amazing runs...in fifa 20 simple 1-2 passing doesn't exist I have to back to the cdms to waste time to beg someone to make one run... pathetic!
Wow great video!!
Eeeh Passieeuuh
This is a really good video pointing out the garbage offense AI. Another thing I wanna point out that ruins the game was the heading nerf. Now, don’t get me wrong, I actually love it. Fifa 19 heading was broken and I prefer it this way BUT, headers were a direct counter to drop back. If the opponent is too hard to break down, then crossing is an option. Since it’s no longer a reliable option, drop back is rampant. I think they should keep the heading the way it is EXCEPT when the opponent turns on a drop back tactic, you should get a heading boost to combat that.
Heading is necessary. I rather enjoy drogba's heading ability than use Messi agility my opinion. Is not fair on tall players in fifa 20
Bashz25 A1 i think messi’s agility being viable is more fit for a video game because crossing is hold x and hold b, goal. dribbling to a position to score actually takes ability. but that’s just my opinion on it.
jaylonw_ you should still be able to cross it though, bear in mind that this is a FOOTBALL game, having virtually no viable heading mechanism is absurd
Jamie L well yea, fifa 20 is far over the edge. but the crossing should be less assisted, and if a striker gets his head on the ball it should be more accurate.
Nerfed heading was one of the dumbest ideas ever. Of course it shouldn't be as OP as it was in FIFA 14 or 19 but God dammit headers should go in if they're well executed. At least you should be able to hit it on target
That’s actually amazing you’re saying this cuz I’ve been telling my friends for months that fifa 17 was by far the best fifa in terms of pure gameplay and how it felt yet I couldn’t explain exactly why.
The precision dribbling and the ground shots I thought were awesome and I wish they brought them back as well. Being able to collect the ball while approaching 2 defending closing in on you fast from some kind of team press and using an extremely tight dribble to squeeze through them quickly just felt awesome and deserved.
Ground shots were always a reasonable go to when AI’s were blocking too many shots. The ground shot more often then not fit your shots underneath and past opposing players outstretched legs and torsos allowing you to actually feel like you’re being rewarded for adjusting to the opposing teams defense.
Delay, passing, the aiming arrow & pay2win
Probably missed more like ruining the other game modes
i didn't, it's all on my cchannel already :D Like I mentioned though, I wanted to focus purely on gameplay, and this aspect of gameplay is not necessarily the most important in terms of competitiveness, but i think it is in terms of fun. Impossible to have fun with dead team mates who don't move, and in a game where the best way to press is to let the CPU do it.
Italian Stallion I’m not saying ur wrong, it’s just what came into my head before watching
@@Yusuf-yo1tp my bad, read it wrong, cheers !
Fifa should not be fun, but reward the players for their skills and tactical approach; if I want to have fun I'll play Mario Strikers. Great video.
The game looks so goofy when you play from kick off or something and the only players that move out of their starting formation are the passer and the receiver, all the others literally stood like a statue
Exactly this. I don't even know what to do once I kicked off. Can only play on my own half until the opponent decides to put pressure. It's ridiculous
when i play the game with my friends, i often complain " damn, they dont move, i dribble and the rest just watching, no support, no movement and at the end get tackled"... Especially LM - RM positions... even i select "come short & cut inside" they just stop by the line... I thought my tactics was the problem... now i get it. Thanks for the video !
the finishing and AI movement in those older clips was just gorgeous
The ACTUAL downfall of fifa is the slight time delay on movement between analog and player. FIFA 13 was the last game before it changed. Go play it, then play 14 and tell me I’m wrong.
ive been saying this since fifa 18! the past three years of fifa had no creativity and the gamplay has been tragic! talk about the shooting next, i hit the post at least 5 times a game...its a joke. Its completely rigged
True bro i was thinking why i was soo good in fifa 18 and i was a division 1 player in fifa 18, i skipped fifa 19 and i started fifa 20 but in fifa 20 when i started the game i couldn't do anything.. i noticed so many errors made by my defenders, rebounds 45 minute and 90 minute goals ruined it for me.. i was the type of player to see a run made by my players and get the ball to them no matter what.. but i noticed the ai stopped doing that in fifa 20.. rip me I'm now a division 8 player :'(
@@DicemanYT btw, doesn't matter ehat division rank do you have nowadays, they ruined this also, with icon swaps, and lot of hard objectives, and people go in lower divisons to complete than grinding back....this is awful
@@markambrus4614 yeah, icon swaps has ruined divisions, would rather have it how it was before icon swaps
The Problem is the way of scoring goals. Combinations, passes, dribblings which lead to an 1vs1 vs the goalie should be the situations where you have an 80%chance to score a goal. Instead we have stupid, non skill based drag bag/turnaround in front of goal and shoot from every angle with meta players to have a high chance of scoring.
I've been saying this for months but a part of me always had that whisper of a doubt that it was just me and i was making excuses for not being good enough...very nice to see this video, albeit after i have already stopped playing the game. but its great to have such clear examples of the shit I've been boring my friends with for months with my rants
It's funny because they call it a skill gap but the only people who benefit from this are the low IQ players. They game is constantly cheating in their favor and their egos refuse to allow them to believe that it isn't them that's doing good. This is actually prevalent in many games nowadays. It creates mental stagnation due to people never having to get better to see positive results. In my opinion it's a microcosm of the modern world we live in. Convice dumb people they are already smart and skilled so that they never actually improve.
I actually could never put my finger on why fifa felt so different when I played it , but this was a great video and I finally understand why 🙌
Stallion being waiting for a video from you on FC24 on next gen words can not describe how bad it is
This is why I tell every one FIFA 20 is trash, I hardly enjoy playing it
Always feel frustrated after every game. Even when I win, it's more relief than happiness like thank fuck I haven't been shafted again
Damn i only got fifa just for volta i might get it next year cuz of the graphics on next gen.
James Wickett that is exactly how I feel when playing
This content is surreal brother. You’ve earned a new sub from me today. Keep it up! Make FIFA Great Again
hey man, i would like to put some subtitles on , i´m from Brazil and your video it´s exactly what i was thinking a couple weeks ago and Brazil has a huge community of FIFA, so i would to everyone to see it
portuguese ones have recently been added
I guess that the most dynamic movement that FIFA has ever gotten was around FIFA 13/14 with Borussia Dortmund. I remember playing with them and having an option to pass the ball ALL the time back in those days.
fifa drinking game - when palying fifa with friends down a shot everytime somebody says the word ''Bullshit''
Did this last week with a friend, ended up in hospital with alcohol poisoning 😉
Or better, take a shot for every drag back
Did fifa drinking game in 2016 with my friend with Vodka. Every goal, foul, corner, free throw, free kick you got punished by one shot. Goal outside 16m was like 3 shots, freekick 5, my friend scored freekick from 40 meters and i have to drink 20 shots. I was 0-2 down half time (7min halves) and i lost my vision. I could only see green screen in tv, nothing else. Next time we changed Vodka to beer😂
Mine say “Ref, why isn’t anyone making runs, wtf was that, and BS/bullshit.”
You’d be dead of alcohol poisoning before halftime. Don’t try that drinking game
Kebab Master at least you didn’t die 😱
I want this to go viral so bad. Way more people need to see this
Ik nobody is gonna read this but i was bored of warzone and had decided to play fifa for the first time in months. Honestly, i tried my absolute hardest to avoid FUT but I couldn't since every other mode in this game is disgraceful and unplayable. I hope on FUT and long story short, every team i played against is at least a 190 and despite me being better skill wise than all of the, i managed to get relegated from division 4 to nearly division 9. Basically, if ur not gonna invest neither all your time or money into this game, you are unable to play. Simple.
That’s just me i bought the game cause it’s now like €10 again because I lost my disc, and literally every player I played against in div 5 was so shit but all the tots with 95+ stats on everything is just mad. It was just better when we all had a shit silver/gold team in fifa 13/14
This is one of the best videos on UA-cam. I’ve been hating and playing this game for months and the way you explained its issues resonated so much
Bro I been feeling same exact way Fifa 20 is like a movie I watched 1000times and its so stactic and imo least fun football game is history along with 19 .
17 and 18 to me was amazing for fluidid games and I liked to say the Football mind felt at home more .
Now I'm playing same player over and over no learning and team press is a joke
I knew something was off when I first played 20 but I never could pin down what it was. It just felt so slow and boring. BUT NOW YOU'VE SOLVED IT. Thanks for your work on this
I switched to PES and I can't be happier.
This is a crazy good video. I remember playing all the fifas and i stopped enjoying it at fifa 18 and i thought i just out grew the game since i was omw to college. But this video made me realize why i dont enjoy it. I remember when fullbacks used to make big overlapping runs for big lobbed through balls across the pitch, but now in fifa 20 theres loads of space to run into and they dont do anything
This is insane. Thanks for uploading this one
Hey Italian Stallian. Love the Video! The thing that you are looking for that was removed was speed, both in buildup and in the final third.
When Dynamic Tactics (which removed the skill gap for tactics) was removed. They emphasized, with over speed. and speed became generalized.
Fast Build Up has your fullbacks into locked positions (when not on stay back) they don't do anything until you manually trigger a run.
I know you said that this style of FIFA gives way for possession hoarders... But the truth is, the real players that try to emulate possession such as myself, were actually impaired and shadow possession players were created. The 4-3-3 was meant to counter to 4-4-2 and its 4-2-3-1 variant, yet 4-2-3-1 is the most dominant in this football simulation. I ran a 3-4-3 formation in FIFA 17 (FUT Seasons and (Non-Fut) Online Seasons with 55 and 65% posesssion respectively.) 4231 People can rack up to 60% possession against me with ease in FIFA 20, all because of the stuff you mentioned.
Oddly enough I was playing FIFA 08 on my PC ( I am a fan of classics) and there was feature that I think needs to be brought back into FIFA... Man Marking. Where you know who is marking who, and simply add a feature on how tight you would like that person to be marked.
FIFA needs to get better. Guardiolas Barcelona crunched the middle like tomorrow with a tactic like overload ball side and team press for 4 years. I run it in FIFA and my players are tired by half?
How come speed was taken out of the users hands when it comes to build up? How can 1 formation be so dominant? Irrespective of Rating and Level? Cant tactics have a lite version like the one we have now but bring back an advanced version for the hardcore players and when I mean an advanced version. I mean like FIFA 13/14. I can choose the run patterns, the workrates, Freeform in Attack, and Build Up, etc...
Lastly, Lets call a spade a spade. How can so many goals comes from the 45th and 90th? An abnormal amount. I am not even talking against me anymore. The amount of times I sigh a sigh of relief when I ave possession of the ball and look to see that the clock is 44:01 or 89:01. I know I am going to get at the minimum a shot on target, a high chance of a rebound, and 6 or 7 times out of 10. A goal, and sometimes two!
FIFA needs to be better. Enough is Enough. If we carry this nonsense into the next gen such as PS5, it would be insane. The simulation gamers want to play simulation football. This arcade stuff, This lack of skill gap stuff, This tactics for dummies stuff, leave it for FIFA Street or VOLTA.
I remember the days of wayback when Fifa was fun and you can play hours upon hours without getting bored
Indeed
Thank you for presenting what I've thought about Fifa 20 since it came out. At first I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but you hit the nail on the head. I'm someone who relies on quick intelligent movement to break teams down with quick passing, and Fifa 20 has nearly finished off that style of play. There's so many matches where I just find the movement to be so uncoordinated and basic that I lose interest in playing, and you just come up against someone that is happy to sit back and counter with pacy wingers knowing you can't break them down and they rack up a scoreline that you know doesn't reflect the true skill gap
10:58 when i ask my crush out
Hahahahahha , you made my day
hats off #F
@Italian Stallion, I've discovered too in FIFA 19 too... It got me on my nerves to see that. Other thing I've notice is the attackers are most of the time too late while you just hold the ball (not running), they're not trying to run... If you give them a pass through they're late... If you try to move and give the pass, the ball will be like something that has been accelerated itself (even if it the button was not pressed hard) and the ball goes right to the keeper or other defender...
The whole FIFA I experienced this, but I couldn't lay a finger on it. After seeing this, I can't play any game of FIFA anymore. This weekend I finished Silver 1, because the gameplay was SOOO boring and annoying. Squad Battles is the only game mode that is a little bit of fun. I really wanted that Gueye objective, but I can't manage myself to do it (even when I have red 93 Neymar). I just can't attack.
Yea even if u grind to a more higher rank the odds of a good reward are shit so dont waste ur time
@@josuevelasquez24 I know. It's just disgusting. Only facing the same, boring, meta squads 24/7.. Back in FIFA 15 or something, I had a Turkish League squad. Muslera 83, Koybasi 73 (a ** silver card who was my best defender), Skrtel 81, Chedjou 82, Gönul 79, Hutchinson 80, Özyakup 81, N'Doye 77, Podolski 81, Eto'o 83/Van Persie 83 and Sow 78/Quaresma 83. The whole year I played with this team (and with upgrades like if Quaresma, Sow, etc). I really enjoyed it. I can remember I named my attack Eto'SowDolski (like MSN & MFS). But now you just HAVE TO USE players with 5☆ weak foot and skills, because otherwise you're too predictable. And that's only because the attacking AI movements is so terrible. Hoping it will become better one year, but I don't expect that to happen.. unfortunaly..
@@rubenboullart8340 Same man, i was hoping to get Elite for the first time this fifa as i was getting gold 1 consistently last fifa but somehow it seems i have got worse :(. If it isnt for connectivity issues or 45min-90min or extra time goals i most definately could have reached elite by now but im just sat in gold 3.
Man I've been feeling like this for years now, I grew up playing football and football games with my brothers and we start feeling weird about fifa a few years ago at the point of no playing it anymore.
We agree that something had changed and the game suck, but I could never put it into words and explain it like you just did, EXCELLENT work man.
I hope they fix it someday and we could get back to enjoy FIFA, it's bad feeling when you can't enjoy anymore a game that you basically grew up with.
EA pls give us back our childhood
Sorry for my English I'm not used to write this long lol, I've learned mostly from hearing, apologies
End of the story is that they should copy the script file from Fifa 17 to 20 and we would be playing a way better game. I mean castro would still scream opening 35k packs for a million fifa points and wouldn't even notice that the game is different.
I swear i was just thinking of this yesterday while playing fifa , i got so discouraged from being down 2-1 and no one was making runs i had to put fast build up and that did nothing cuz the AI is so dead it literally opens up one player that immediately gets covered while everyone else looks , so limited and not fun to play
The comparison is MADNESS, downloading Fifa 17 right now :)
Fifa 20 is really boring, always the same and really no movement. Great video! Hope a lot of people see this!!!
Can you still play online?
@@davidstewart5447 Yea mate, you still can.
Fifa 17 was shit. Defensive AI does everything and Triangle Passes dont work cause the player makes wrong pass.
@@lolsucks3599 is actually is, R1 doesn't work eiter
@@lolsucks3599 What was the last good fifa? I played since before 2000 and i cant tell. I know that i started hating it in 18, then 19 was worse and now 20 is maybe not as buggy as 19 but soooooooooooo boring.
That Walcott card at 4:14 was so deadly 😩 same with the Alexis card. FIFA 17 was so fun man
I knew there was no offensive movement in fifa 20, everyone just stands and watches the ball unless specifically triggered to move. Takes all the fun out of fifa, making the game very slow, unexciting and just shitty.
Great video. I believe the reason behind all these changes is that FIFA20 is trying to encourage people to open packs, especially those who spends more (likely with lower FIFA skills so they can only pay to win). Skill gap or competitiveness is just a bait, more money gives u more win. If EA wants to cater the gameplay for a specific group of people, they would 100% prioritize those who spend the most.
With the current state of FIFA20, the gameplay is so linear that with a pacier team, EVERYBODY wins more often regardless of their FIFA skills. Money ==> pace ==> win. Ez game! FIFA has retained those who really don't understand football/FIFA to be competitive, but are willing to pay to win.
Can't pretend I have much to add. Thank you for pointing this out, I wonder what their thought process was when they changed this.
Also, I know your thing is passing and movement, but has anyone in the community taken a look at how the nerfing of skill moves (against the AI defenders specifically) has impacted the game? I know it's niche, I'm just personally interested.
Fifa 17 was my last fifa.(i had so much fun with it, it was perfect)
I ve got fifa 20 for free and it was shit, they have to pay me to play the last ones.
I love your video, very accurate.
Yeah don't even remind of their soundtrack as well.Shelter was a banger in Fifa 17
The main problem with fifa for me is people are playing to win the game rather than playing football
Cause the goal of a football match is to win.
You are that one Football manager that only let’s the team play possesion all training
Kwabz if you’re defending people playing drop back 4231 dribbling backwards half the game then passing it round the back the other half you do that
@@MB-jy7nz if it means I win the game I will, you can enjoy playing "beautiful" "attractive" football and getting smoked 8 - 0 ontop of 50 game losing streak.
@@KwabzModding the goal of a video game is to have fun
This video deserved a sub. Keep it up bro
Thank you for this. I'm tired of people telling you to "fix your shooting" or "learn how to play the game" 😒
Dude. YES. I couldn't put my finger on why FIFA stopped being fun for me and you're just explained it perfectly. Thank you!
There are some really great points here. FIFA is in a pretty bad place...
The only thing that keeps me playing is making a series around Pulisic for my channel.
0:51 bro, my friend made me play FIFA 20 and 21 and for some reason everything felt off I always kept complaining and I thought maybe I've become rusty since I only played older titles but your videos shed more light on why over the recent years FIFA becomes less fun
I used to be a press master. Since fifa 20 I can't do anything.
I still love playing fifa, recently I started the 10th season with bayern munich on legendary. But I miss the old times, like Fifa 08 when you had challenges to unlock achievements, like different regions in the world where you must choose a team and the computer gives you a challenge like "achieve 80% passing with player xy" or "score 2 goals in the first half". There were 10 or 11 different levels of challenges with about 10 single challenges each. Nowadays you have achievements like "score a goal by a free kick with a distance of over 28 meter" how ridiculos that is!
the fifa 17 movement looked like a tom and jerry movement
What's positioning stat for if you need to command them every time you need to attack?
Great vid, bro. If I'm allowed to give you my 2 cents, I wanna say that you are going to be really really disappointed in the future because that offensive AI is not coming back for sure. How do I know ??? Now hear me out for a moment, that offensive AI made two formations not regularly used IRL became two of the strongest and most meta formations in FIFA 17 which were 41212 Narrow and 4321. The combination of one of those two formation with the offensive AI enabled people to play a run 'n gun play style, which was very fast and not realistic.
In short, that offensive AI was so great that few people makes OP things out of it and it was too fast and too furious for a lot of casuals since the skill gap was just too wide. This is not what EA wants, that only a few people being able to compete with the Gorillas and the Dossarys. EA wants to make FIFA an e-sport that appeals to more people so these people decide to be a FIFA pro player. Large player pool means longevity to the franchise as an e-sport and more variety as an entertainment. So the run 'n gun play style has to go in order for the Gorillas and the Dossarys to be nerfed and the casuals to be buffed. OP things need to go in order for FIFA to be "balanced" and e-sport-worthy. The fact that they even choose to make the gameplay even slower and passing more RNG this year, is the ultimate telltale sign why we won't see it coming back, like ever. They want to make it more realistic and with more error, they can't achieve that by having intelligent player runs, actively making themselves available for a pass, at your disposal........
I hardly played fifa 19 because of how shocking it was & only played fifa 20 till January because the gameplay is embarrassing beyond belief. If fifa 21 isn’t a big improvement think I’ll be done with it forever.
let’s all start playing fifa 17 and make it a trend lol
What a fantastic video. I’ve jus come across it and it brilliantly describes my frustration with 20 and 21. I thought I was going mad not understanding why players were static. This makes it obvious. It’s not fun if no one moves other than when you make them.
