How do people expect this series to change for the better if most of them continue to buy each game day 1 at full price along with a shit ton of micro transactions? There’s no reason for EA to rework this lousy yearly cycle if most of the playerbase continues to encourage it. As a longtime FIFA fan, it’s despairing to see what this series has come to. So glad I’ve been moved on to much better quality games, and I encourage others to follow suite
@@dantesamuels2209 Oh god no. Well I understand that most of the fifa player base is very casual, they just want to have easygoing fun by themselves or with the boys. If they want to keep buying and playing these new fifa games, then that’s their choice and more power to them. But I’ve seen a lot of player become unhappy and fatigued with FIFA/EAFC. If they’re genuinely fed up with these games and have the means to do so, then I highly encourage them to branch out to different and superior games. Now what kinds of better quality games than FIFA? Well it’s also personal preference cause obviously not everyone likes the same types of games as each other which is why I encourage these players to diversify. Story driven games like from God of War, Red Dead 2, and Half Life 2, action type games like Devil May cry and Doom, rpg games like cyberpunk and fallout, co-op experiences like Left 4 dead 2 and helldivers 2, and India games like cuphead, hollow knight, and hades. Obviously the games I listed I’m very biased towards since they’re very personal to me, but I’m basically just trying to say there’s a lot more out there than just fifa. If players are tired of ea’s yearly cycle of crappy, cash-grabbing, and low effort sports games, then go out and try other games.
You're applying hyper agency to the fanbase, I don't like what they are doing with the game however will buy it for the competitive aspect etc. However until theres a competitor nothing will change and its not like the whole fanbase can boycott a "monopoly" especially with no competition. When consumers are given a choice then it will be more on their end. Until then EAFC it is if you're buying a football game.
@@Justin-dl7hb You’re definitely right. EAFC desperately needs competition. It’s not the fanbase’s fault that this game is the only choice they have for a football game to play and I understand that. Although I genuinely do believe a lot of these players fed up with the series should just move on to other better deserving of their time. But until there is competition and the players start to spend their money and time elsewhere, this franchise is never going to change. Hopefully UFL and 2k’s football game can effectively provide this for the sake of the player base and market.
Fyi…. If you put the language to arabic you can’t substitute, change tactics or even search for a game and this has been a thing since FIFA TWENTY MOTHER FUCKING THREE
The rush mode same as volta it's not worth your sanity. Players just take the ball and go with it solo doing all sorts of shenanigans until they lose it and they can't be asked to defend. And the attacking same as always you have no support. If you counter from a corner no one runs to support, if you try to build the midfielders refuse to go past the middle line and wingers turn their backs on you. This issues are predominant for years now and no one seems to care.
honestly, i play mostly a CDM or CB and i sit behind focusing on sitting deep defending and playing long balls and i win most of the games. Sooner or later the teammates realize the role i play and they start to pass to me to play the ball
It's the worst "FIFA" game of all time, it's unacceptable that a company the worth of EA can't seem to make a decent football game, passes are either always intercepted or never go to where you aim the pass to go, the players are heavy, they can't control the ball properly, and when they do the AI defenders nip in and take it off them straight away, finesse shooting is terrible, goalkeeper will always parry the ball out instead of actually saving it, leaving the attacker with an open net to score !! I'm truly disappointed with it, thought FIFA 20 was bad, this one takes the cake, FIFA's 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18 & 19 were my favourites, every FIFA since then has been a disappointment
Fifa gameplay is ARCADE pinball circus fake bubble gum football without substance with many rugby scores 9-5 8-4 etc lol where you put Ronaldo as keeper and he keeps his same rating lol Walt Disney's football was ALWAYS shit lol
I just bought the game today and played it for like 4 straight hours. Every thing you said in your comment was what I was screaming throughout those 4 hours. You took the words out of my mouth. Your favourite FIFAs are simply the best FIFAS honestly. 20 and 21 was so shit that 22 felt like a breath of fresh air even though it wasn’t perfect either. 22, 23 & 24 were okay compared to the vomit of 20 & 21 but this fc25 is the legit worst of all time 🤮
@@egwuekwechima4463 There's a major patch update for gameplay that's apparently live right now for consoles, I'll play a few games tonight after the update and see how it goes, if it's still the same then it gets uninstalled
one of the biggest issues I have with the game is that they nerfed those ridiculous reverse passes which is fine but it still takes years for your player to turn when they receive the ball which ends up causing them to do a reverse pass and lose the ball
They nerfed a bit too hard in some edge cases. Passing first time behind you should be hard, yes, but not an obtuse angled pass where you're just opening up into a side foot as is standard in all professional level play. They need to implement taking into account the actual complexity of the pass and not just whether it was first time or past an arbitrary angle.
5 back and r1 speed boost and game's been out for a week , people jump on every opportunity to abuse mechanics for pack addiction bc they dont play anythin thats close to football . other then that i honestly think game has alot of potential
Why you hate 5 atb when it’s an actual formation and it’s a football formation. Go make a different excuse man ppl can play how they want it’s not up to you to decide what’s fun for them and what’s not.
@@Wraithynni feel like this is bait or youre that 0.1 % of ppl who play 5 back for reasons such as their club playin 5 back . most ppl play 5 back for its broken mechanic not to mention 5 back is frowned upon irl as well.
What a contradictory comment. The gameplay is all about abusing mechanics & EA's version of what they think football is, the game doesn't even obey the laws of physics.
@@palatialslumlord4938 brother have u played this game? you can actually cook football plays this year people are just incompetent and brain rotted they just wanna spam sprint button and score goals and be in the pack menu section. this year's game has issues but the core thing is so good (when the gameplay is good )
I loved the career mode aspect of picking icons.I can now win the champions league with titi henry.Honestly since i only play cereer mode im judging it based on its perspective
I played one rivals and one draft game.. had that onesided delay that i had since Fifa 18.. EA does not care to fix their netcode and servers. Even if this might be better than last game its unplayable for me and for many more. Clubs is better but there is not that addictive teambuildup aspect.. :/
Haven't you realized that the issues with both the servers and the netcode are not mistakes? I remember we had the same issues back in 2009. This was 15 years ago and EA has somehow managed to keep the people into believing that the inconsistent gameplay gets caused by their shtty servers and netcode. Just think about it logically. Compare the technology that was available back then to nowadays. Having the same exact problems for the past 15 years is completely impossible and we know it. Or have you ever heard of a game or experienced the same problem for yourself in another game? Never.
@merchant5508 Tinfoil hat🤣 Are you that stupid!? Tell me what dda is. Describe to me what it does and then explain to me how the inconsistent gameplay affects your games...
@@Meddemmmmmmm the guys had bad internet for 6 years and won't get an upgrade... I have great internet and almost never experience lag... mind blowing I know
im playing on east EU and the input delay is absolutely insane. Feels like an eternity until my player does what i want him to do even though i get 30 ms on the menu before the game. Haven't bought the game thankfully, only played the 10 hour trial and overall it was tragic. The trivelas, kick off glitches, stuttering menus....
Also from eastern europe and I found out the input delay to be horrendus (1 to 3 seconds). I didn't even play online, it was a kick off against AI. I don't think it's the servers
Go to settings and change the graphics to favor resolution that should help, I had the same issue, you have to do this from the main menu not FUT menu btw
For me when I’m selecting dialogue choices in contract negotiations or press conferences there’s sometimes a weird lag and my selections aren’t registered for like 10 seconds. Kind of petty but still real annoying. Almost as annoying as having to click over FOUR TIMES to get to the full calendar every time I check to see if my next match is in two or three or more days. Is it so hard to just put a seven day calendar in the home tab?
Does it still have the broken "expiring contracts" system? It's infuriating how players on expiring contracts join in January when they sign the contract in December. This is definitely the reason why you don't have the "expiring contract" filter in player search.
I have had it for a week, and have ZERO incentive to play anything other than rush. The 45 points on rivals has completely made it obselete to play, as well as the 3/5 for champs when I had trouble winning 4/10 has made that gmae mode impossible for a casual player. And Rush is soo much quicker than anything else on this game, hence it appeals to me the most as the 6 minute games is perfect. My worry/delight is now I might not play Fifa (EAFC, I just threw up) after I get tired of Rush. It might be a blessing in disguise as I have not had the itch to play Rivals for the last 10 days. Rush might be what I've needed to phase out my Fifa addiction and finally stop playing.
real, yeah, keep doing this, glad to see a noticeable improvement in this year's game despite the lag issues, hopefully they will stick the landing in terms of game updates for this year and continue improving on from this year's game in terms of changes for the better in future years while finally addressing the actual issues plaguing the game soon enough,, plus actually give a care to rush and expand it on too, a surprisingly good overhaul for volta lol
mate, this is the perfect video you have made addressing every single problem that has bugged me about this game. It was literally watching my thoughts being visualized here.
Honestly haven't watched the vid but from how I've played over the past week this game is miles better than fc 24 and while it ain't perfect I find it better to play over a period of time. And I actually like career mode this year
It's terrible. The gameplay is dreadful. U can have the best players in the world but u can't hit a pass past the first man every time. The defenders turn slower than milk. U get easily shrugged off the ball
They had the audacity to have an in game intro with Zidane talking tactics but then absolutely gut the tactics system. And yet people on reddit are singing it's praises because it looks kinda like football manager lmao
This is the worst "Fifa" gameplay wise. All players feel like tanks, everything is with lag input and the only way to score goals is to pass the ball 100 times. That's not realism, that's bullshit. Every real life football game is much faster and versatile than this "simulation" game.
as a career mode player, it's enjoyable to have some more realism to the feel of the players - that youre describing as 'tanks' dw after a few weeks of crying to EA they'll update it to the overpowered, speed beast, end to end ping pong game that doesnt even vaguely resemble real football that you guys crave
@@TheASMRMedicthat’s what so annoying ab this, although EA is v annoying they actually made a good game this year. I can’t lie the input delay/lag def needs to be fixed, but the community complains about EVERYTHING and then lies and claims it isn’t nostalgia. As if every single FIFA hasn’t been people abusing mechanics to get the win on others. Most of the issue is with the ppl playing the game, though I admit EA has some work to do with this one frrl.
I'm Mr ananymous, a former programmer at EA. During my time there, I saw how the company prioritized profit over the quality and enjoyment of the games, often turning them into gambling machines with microtransactions. I strongly advise players to quit supporting and playing games that exploit their time and money. There's no value in supporting a system that treats players as a source of revenue. As programmers, we strongly recommend quitting this unhealthy, addictive Zionist game immediately These are our hidden secrets of the FC 25 game "The term 'you' refers to us as programmers." 1. Invisible AI Buffs Hidden Difficulty Scaling: You could secretly adjust the difficulty of the AI in a way that isn’t obvious to the player. For example, the AI could be given minor handicaps (lower accuracy, slower response times, less efficient decision-making) without the player noticing. This would give players the feeling of overcoming difficult challenges, but the game is actually making it slightly easier for them. AI Mistakes or Blind Spots: Subtly increase the chances that AI-controlled players will make mistakes in certain situations, like missing shots, passing poorly, or losing track of the player’s actions. You could also give AI opponents blind spots or tactical gaps that the player can exploit-without it being too obvious or game-breaking. 2. Dynamic “Assist” Mechanics Hidden Gameplay Assists: Introduce hidden gameplay assists that kick in when players are struggling. For example: If the player’s team starts losing or is significantly outmatched, you could secretly tweak things like stamina, accuracy, or control responsiveness to give them a bit of an edge. Auto-Correction: If a player makes a major mistake, like failing to block a goal or missing a critical pass, you could have an invisible system that automatically adjusts certain game elements to make the mistake less impactful (e.g., slightly correcting a shot angle, or automatically slowing down an opponent’s movement for a split second). Adaptive AI: As the player plays and makes mistakes, the AI could slowly adjust its tactics to give the player more opportunities to succeed-for example, by reducing the AI’s pressure during key moments or making the AI miss more often in tense situations. This would be hard for the player to notice but would ensure they don’t feel like the game is punishing them too much. 3. Hidden Resource Management Unseen Stat Boosts: Give the player hidden stat boosts to their team that they don’t see in the UI (like extra stamina, skill, or speed). For example, their players might have a slightly higher reaction time or accuracy than displayed on the stat sheet, making them more efficient in the game. Stamina Buffs or Reduced Fatigue: You could subtly reduce player fatigue or increase recovery rates after certain actions, allowing players to maintain peak performance longer than they would expect. This could go unnoticed if the player doesn’t see exact stamina numbers or feel the difference until it’s too late for the AI to capitalize on its own fatigue. 4. Invisible Tactical Help Invisible Tactical Guidance: Without revealing it, you could implement a form of AI-guided tactical suggestions that improve a player’s strategy. For instance: If the player is consistently failing at a certain tactical decision (e.g., attacking too much or being too passive), the game could subtly adjust the AI's reaction to make it easier for the player to execute successful strategies. For example, if the player tries to use a specific formation or strategy but is getting overwhelmed, the AI could "react in a way that supports the player's tactics" by slowing down or avoiding counter-strategies. It makes the player feel like they’re winning on their own, but the AI is subtly adjusting to make them succeed. 5. Event-Driven Player Buffs “Luck” Factors: Introduce a hidden “luck” factor that affects the game’s outcomes. This could include things like: Critical Event Boosts: Random events, like last-minute saves, post-hit rebounds, or missed penalties from the AI, could happen more often for the player. These would seem like “lucky breaks” that the player gets, but they’re actually part of a hidden system designed to increase the player’s win rate. Random Power-ups: After certain in-game actions (like consecutive goals or perfect plays), the game could secretly boost the player’s next few shots or passes without them realizing it, making their plays seem more effective and increasing the chances of success. 6. Invisible Influence on AI Behavior AI Adjustment to Player Performance: The AI could be secretly adjusting its tactics based on the player's perceived skill level. For example: If the player is struggling, the game could make the AI team less aggressive or less coordinated, creating easier opportunities for the player. If the player is performing exceptionally well, the AI might adjust by sacrificing defense for a brief moment or making strategic errors, giving the player a slight upper hand. AI "Behavioral Loops": Sometimes, AI could unknowingly fall into certain patterns that the player can easily predict or exploit. You could adjust the AI's decision-making to favor the player’s typical moves, making it feel like the player is outsmarting the AI even though the AI is giving them small, hidden advantages. 7. Secret AI Vulnerabilities AI Weaknesses at Key Moments: Create hidden vulnerabilities for the AI that kick in at critical moments (e.g., late in the game or when the player is about to lose). These could include things like: AI Fatigue: When the player is close to losing or the game is nearing a critical point, the AI could subtly become slower or more error-prone without being obvious. AI Overconfidence: If the AI is dominating, it could become overconfident and make mistakes in key moments, giving the player an unexpected advantage in clutch situations. 8. Player Guidance via UI Feedback Subtle UI Feedback: Without telling the player directly, you could provide subtle feedback in the UI to help them succeed. For example: Highlighting areas on the field or showing subtle directional cues when the player is about to make a key mistake. Showing temporary stat boosts on the UI after certain actions (e.g., “+10% Accuracy” after completing a perfect pass), without explicitly telling the player how or why it happened. Giving the player hidden hints (like slight camera zooms or visual indicators) that guide them toward high-probability winning plays, but without overtly changing the gameplay. Final Thoughts: Conclude by discussing any future updates, expansions, or goals you have for FC 25. This shows that you’re not just done with the project but are always looking to improve it.
The gameplay feels exactly like the last four years. The defending is atrocious. Teammate AI is non-existent. Just sick of EA Sports, and their cut and paste nonsense.
Remember when you gotnpoints for playing l, even just career mode and you could click R3 and a side menu would pop up and you could purchase things like retro kits, boots, financial boosts etc? Yeah, the moment they got rid of that, was the moment they stopped actually caring for the players and wanting to encourage them to play ANY game mode. This game is pure dung.
I pre-ordered the game but still haven't played it because playstation won't let me download it, it has a lock on it and the support is useless and they won't refund me because i played the 10 hour trial -_-
Every year you lot complain about the gamespeed until EA makes it ping pong footy again. You'll get your wish for ADHD footy again, just be patient lol. Let the football fans enjoy the game for a while first.
when fc 24 came out i was genuinly exited(that was my biggest mistake ever because there ware so many bugs and glitches) but when fc 25 came out(and i bought it because i fall for the trap every year) but i was not exited because it couldtn get any worse right?(my game just cant open the store 1 trirth of the time and j am forced to shutdown the game) But Yea I Think it will be even worse than fc 24... Edit: Rush Is Amazing(exept if you have a afk teammate what is 99 procent of the time) i still thin it will not be good but atleast better than fc 24.
Has anyone noticed the R1 bug when you hold R1 to second man press, the player your controlling just decides to freeze or to keep walking the same direction you initially made him go towards. I’m sure I can’t be the only one experiencing this bug and btw it happens every match you play…
Honestly always think the best thing to look at is CM. And this year it seems alot better. It'd just be miles better if they kinda loopholed licensing for national & club teams that ain't in. And also just added literally most things that the online player hub all has for some reason, but the manager career doesn't.
As someone who was pretty annoyed by the lack of new features in the game in previous years, I actually believe that this year they actually developed something new that's worth playing. I only play ultimate and career mode and especially career mode has improved a lot with new features...
Rush saved the game for me, I wouldn't have considered 25 if it wasn't for that. I spent almost all of my time with the demo playing Rush and then got EA Pro so I could keep playing it. I think it's a much healthier framework for a competitive online mode. Let the rest of the game be the casual simulation experience it always used to be before FUT. Also as long as the server side delays that you mentioned exist, I can't possible take EAFC seriously as a competitive game, no matter how good everything else may get. Rush seems to be far less affected by those as well, if at all. I don't think Rush will be neglected either, because I think people can see how much potential it has. Hopefully content creators like you will also keep the spotlight on it. One thing to note is how good Pro Clubs Rush really is. If you like Rush there is no reason not to (also) play it in Pro Clubs IMO, even as a solo drop in. FUT Rush has no competitive aspect (which is nice when you just want to chill), but in Pro Clubs Rush you get a proper ranking system and also player progression. I never tried Pro Clubs before so I almost would have missed it, but it's fantastic. I think it's easy to forget that there is a lot more to FIFA than the modern skinner box that is FUT.
The early release for the game was very good, but the when the game got released for everyone else the problem started coming to the game, EA I’ve done not too much in SBC not much tradable park which is bad and the gameplay at times has just been well rubbish and not too much objectives come out not that happy with it but still early days let’s see if anything better comes out just to tell you qualifying for the weekend week is going to be so hard. I don’t know why they tell you to win 3 games out of five, there’s a lot of people cannot do that. They are just trying to make the game hard for some people the better come up for some more ideas for weekend league because it’s just too hard even I am saying that🤔
I feel extreme pressure by just listening to you! As if I get 100 complicated work assignments at the same moment. Let alone paying 90 bucks and start playing it.
Stake well done (a heresy to The Gods of Meat) > Americans > Weirdoes. Yeah, that's about right since FIFA is an EA Montreal Product (from the pinnacle of football, or is it soccer, known as Canada).
How sick would it be if they added all time teams to seasons. If you play NBA 2k you know that you can play with the any teams roster of today. But you can also go back and play with the bulls with pippen and Jordan. How cool would it be if you could pick arsenals roster today, or pick the arsenal roster of old with van Persie. Maybe the old Liverpool with Suarez. It would expand the game so much more
Slower game play is nice as it makes it more realistic. The gameplay is too inconsistent though. The menus are slow, the acceleration boost is cheesy, bad attacking AI and you need to player lock all the time. Honestly the last good fifa was 17ish. Honestly I just play clubs now as ultimate team is so freaking sweaty. People just spamming broken game mechanics…it gets old.
This game,like ea fc 24 has a short lifespan.Besides rush and career mode,there isnt anything to do other than fut,and fut is going to probably be worse then last year because fifa has messed up players ratings(ps trossard has high dribbling and low shooting, so when he gets a promo card or a special card he can have regular lw stats)
12:35 it’s just scripting so that you lose the ball. The whole thing is so messed up and rigged you can literally feel in the controller how lagged everything is from the vert start and you just know the game is going to be against you and there’s nothing you can do about it. Genuinely infuriating
It's scripted, you become nervous, disappointed with your team and feel compelled to buy packages with players, hoping for better results with footballers bought with real money.
In fc24 I noticed when you start your match and see your team, as you advance the last milisecond you’ll maybe see a change in team chemistry. With my end team from 33 chem Ive seen it go to 5, I lost massively
CM has some good additions in terms of features this year. The attacking AI from what you've shown here is a big yikes, and so is the 1v1 shots. I wonder if there will be a mod to fix these issues tho.
I hated FC24, but this is worse it makes me feel sorry for every slagging FC24 off. Everything feels clunky and slow, trying to turn on someone is just slow as hell, button delays are crazy its just not fun or enjoyable to play even career mode isnt fun.
i mainly play squad battles on legend and upwards and I liked to play 32 games just some footy and chill but with the reduced matches i have nothing to do bc 14 is a bit to little and I cant be bothered to play anything except squad battles clubs draft and the career mode
In FIFA Online (MMO PC game) 3 or 4 people can control one of the 11 players of the same team. Wish we have that in newer games. One's controlling GK, one controlling the defense, and so on..
Ngl this is the first fifa /fc I've played and I've had hella fun so far(I also haven't touched ut yet) but idk that might change but as for now imma have my fun
I tried to do a skill move 3 days ago, I'm still waiting for the input to register. Is there a hotline or some website where I have to register a skill move request in advance?
Pretty much agree with everything you said in this video. I believe this year like most years have potential to be great but stuff needs to be changed/patched in order for it to be a great game. Knowing EA they’ll never fix their exploits for example, (Speed boost glitch) and the game will die off because of this. Only thing I don’t agree with is the medium steak disrespect 😂
I tried the game on PS5 before the standard edition came out and the menus were so laggy it was a nightmare. You had to press a button 2 or 3 times to make it register. It was horrible. Inside matches it was not like this but completing SBCa was a PITA
Rush is really fun if you are at least a group of three but there's no really reason to play it with those seasonal awards. I tried that mode, played some hours with friends and got the 70k points needed this season. And even doing evos in there is probably taking longer than sitting in squad battles
You are me in Rush, such a fun and infuriating game mode, is so fun when you have a couple of teammates that can actually play, but most of the time they look down and do the worst impression possible of Messi trying to dribble the whole opposite team, and yeah nobody defends lol
For us who've played older Fifa games (fifa98-fifa23) players are intelligent enough to attack space and get into places to receive one twos, something that the game lacks and one of the reasons I still play Fifa 14.
@davidbeatus4243 you gotta force them to make runs with LB, too many times, I've thrown my controller up screaming "Why he stopped?!?!?!?!?!" Especially fifa 14
@@ramonmartinez7775LB shouldn’t be the only time a player makes runs, that’s just silly. Plus the fact that when you press LB, the player runs way past the offside line, it looks ridiculous and is a waste of stamina. Whole games a mess lol
It’ll be fine once we can use controllers on PC without disabling inputs and external software. A glitch that bad that early on is a concern, a big one
The interaction with Zidane in the start when he talks about tactics is being overlooked because everyone just skips it But man It gave me the chills it's wonderfully done which is rare by EA
i also tried the 10 hours and i tried a few UT modes and the most of the time offline modes, i enjoyed the carrere mode and rush to get the game, now with a few days after the release Ultimate team is horrible the IA is really bad, the defense is really bad and the GK are a joke, not only the IA dont attack or help you, this is the first time i regret get the game, should have gotten it with discount, i will play it without any care about if i win or lose, when the UT finish i will still have a good football offline game
This is the best review ive seen on the game so far. As someone on the fence since hearing the mixed reviews, you saying that the gameplay is STILL slow and kinda inconsistent turns me away yet again:/
Dude EAFC 24 was so bad that the skill level of people who would normally be in Divisions 5-8 were killing it in the top divisions by just using pacey teams and booting the ball down the field and praying. The f’d up thing is that people used to absolutely cry f’n lakes and rivers about lobbed through balls back in the FIFA 12-13 days… or as I call them THE LAST DAYS OF SKILL IN THE FIFA SERIES… yet you hardly hear a peep about it now. Even worse is back in the older days you could easily actually shut this tactic down and I mean EASILY.
The problem is the Ultimate Team players trash the game because they basically did nothing. Its a really good game CM has improved and its amazing. Everyone just plays Ultimate Team and trashes the game as they dont know how to play anything else. FC IQ is genuinely amazing and has improved CM so much and i think its a main stay. Overall FC 25 is great for CM players and trash for UT players who cant play any other mode.
CM still has it's own massive amount of problems, though. Like how they're honestly managing the Youth Academies is just weird and I'd almost say they need to make it seperate tab. + The many things online gamemodes has accessories & features-wise that aren't even thought to be implemented into CM or Player Career. Being unable to toggle the settings mid-save is also absolutely the biggest downside of the entire game. And I wish EA would just stop being weird with it.
In terms of tactics, don't pay much attention to the heat map. It's not accurate, but once you figure out what tactics work for you, they're very consistent
I don't think I've played a FULL 90 minute match in rivals or champs. As soon as someone is 2 goals up either I leave or my opponent leaves, because all the goals were utter bullshit and can't be fucking arsed.
Only problem i have with the game is that sometimes it randomly closes itselfs when i press either R1 or L3 making it very tedious to play. Im playing on Pc connected with a controller.

@Angelol_G cold statement by the way.
Fyi…. If you put the language to arabic you can’t substitute, change tactics or even search for a game and this has been a thing since FIFA TWENTY MOTHER FUCKING THREE
Wait, fr?

Haha 😂 sucker
Lol that's crazy. Ea can't even be bothered because they're too busy swimming in cash.
The rush mode same as volta it's not worth your sanity. Players just take the ball and go with it solo doing all sorts of shenanigans until they lose it and they can't be asked to defend. And the attacking same as always you have no support. If you counter from a corner no one runs to support, if you try to build the midfielders refuse to go past the middle line and wingers turn their backs on you. This issues are predominant for years now and no one seems to care.
As repetetive as the game is this seems to be more like a community issue.
Pro Tip: Play Rush Mode in Clubs only where ppl are actually co-op oriented ;)
Pro clubs rush is actually good
honestly, i play mostly a CDM or CB and i sit behind focusing on sitting deep defending and playing long balls and i win most of the games. Sooner or later the teammates realize the role i play and they start to pass to me to play the ball
Play with friends
It's the worst "FIFA" game of all time, it's unacceptable that a company the worth of EA can't seem to make a decent football game, passes are either always intercepted or never go to where you aim the pass to go, the players are heavy, they can't control the ball properly, and when they do the AI defenders nip in and take it off them straight away, finesse shooting is terrible, goalkeeper will always parry the ball out instead of actually saving it, leaving the attacker with an open net to score !!
I'm truly disappointed with it, thought FIFA 20 was bad, this one takes the cake, FIFA's 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18 & 19 were my favourites, every FIFA since then has been a disappointment
Totally agree so disappointed keep coming back to it but it's absolutely garbage
Fifa gameplay is ARCADE pinball circus fake bubble gum football without substance with many rugby scores 9-5 8-4 etc lol where you put Ronaldo as keeper and he keeps his same rating lol Walt Disney's football was ALWAYS shit lol
I just bought the game today and played it for like 4 straight hours. Every thing you said in your comment was what I was screaming throughout those 4 hours. You took the words out of my mouth. Your favourite FIFAs are simply the best FIFAS honestly. 20 and 21 was so shit that 22 felt like a breath of fresh air even though it wasn’t perfect either. 22, 23 & 24 were okay compared to the vomit of 20 & 21 but this fc25 is the legit worst of all time 🤮
@@egwuekwechima4463 There's a major patch update for gameplay that's apparently live right now for consoles, I'll play a few games tonight after the update and see how it goes, if it's still the same then it gets uninstalled
dont support them anymore, they deserve bankrupcy, absolutely criminal what they are doing.
one of the biggest issues I have with the game is that they nerfed those ridiculous reverse passes which is fine but it still takes years for your player to turn when they receive the ball which ends up causing them to do a reverse pass and lose the ball
Have you used players that have first touch play style? That helps a ton
Also, hold L2 to make a 180 pass
They nerfed a bit too hard in some edge cases. Passing first time behind you should be hard, yes, but not an obtuse angled pass where you're just opening up into a side foot as is standard in all professional level play. They need to implement taking into account the actual complexity of the pass and not just whether it was first time or past an arbitrary angle.

I played one rivals and one draft game.. had that onesided delay that i had since Fifa 18.. EA does not care to fix their netcode and servers. Even if this might be better than last game its unplayable for me and for many more. Clubs is better but there is not that addictive teambuildup aspect.. :/
Haven't you realized that the issues with both the servers and the netcode are not mistakes? I remember we had the same issues back in 2009. This was 15 years ago and EA has somehow managed to keep the people into believing that the inconsistent gameplay gets caused by their shtty servers and netcode. Just think about it logically. Compare the technology that was available back then to nowadays. Having the same exact problems for the past 15 years is completely impossible and we know it. Or have you ever heard of a game or experienced the same problem for yourself in another game? Never.
Indeed ''EA does not care'' because even though you're aware of this issue since fifa 18, you still gave them your 100$ this year.

im playing on east EU and the input delay is absolutely insane. Feels like an eternity until my player does what i want him to do even though i get 30 ms on the menu before the game. Haven't bought the game thankfully, only played the 10 hour trial and overall it was tragic. The trivelas, kick off glitches, stuttering menus....
Also from eastern europe and I found out the input delay to be horrendus (1 to 3 seconds). I didn't even play online, it was a kick off against AI. I don't think it's the servers
for me the buttons don't work 50% of the time in the menus
Go to settings and change the graphics to favor resolution that should help, I had the same issue, you have to do this from the main menu not FUT menu btw
@@zedgenius9347it's not the servers, it's a whole different game feeling wise on PC.

Hell yeah. Even player career is great. The european competitions add to it as well. Even the menus are actually pleasant to look at.
Turn off auto updates or they will ruine it
@@Kitcho771 mine is lready ruined
For me when I’m selecting dialogue choices in contract negotiations or press conferences there’s sometimes a weird lag and my selections aren’t registered for like 10 seconds. Kind of petty but still real annoying. Almost as annoying as having to click over FOUR TIMES to get to the full calendar every time I check to see if my next match is in two or three or more days. Is it so hard to just put a seven day calendar in the home tab?
Does it still have the broken "expiring contracts" system? It's infuriating how players on expiring contracts join in January when they sign the contract in December. This is definitely the reason why you don't have the "expiring contract" filter in player search.

2:33 people without subscription play squad battles
I have had it for a week, and have ZERO incentive to play anything other than rush. The 45 points on rivals has completely made it obselete to play, as well as the 3/5 for champs when I had trouble winning 4/10 has made that gmae mode impossible for a casual player. And Rush is soo much quicker than anything else on this game, hence it appeals to me the most as the 6 minute games is perfect. My worry/delight is now I might not play Fifa (EAFC, I just threw up) after I get tired of Rush. It might be a blessing in disguise as I have not had the itch to play Rivals for the last 10 days. Rush might be what I've needed to phase out my Fifa addiction and finally stop playing.
I'll have you know back when I used to play the game, I would often play squad battles🤣. Mostly cause I sucked at pvp lmao
real, yeah, keep doing this, glad to see a noticeable improvement in this year's game despite the lag issues, hopefully they will stick the landing in terms of game updates for this year and continue improving on from this year's game in terms of changes for the better in future years while finally addressing the actual issues plaguing the game soon enough,, plus actually give a care to rush and expand it on too, a surprisingly good overhaul for volta lol
Been waiting 4 ur review
mate, this is the perfect video you have made addressing every single problem that has bugged me about this game. It was literally watching my thoughts being visualized here.
Honestly haven't watched the vid but from how I've played over the past week this game is miles better than fc 24 and while it ain't perfect I find it better to play over a period of time. And I actually like career mode this year

Great vid, i was waiting for your review to see if i'd buy or not.
This is the worst "Fifa" gameplay wise. All players feel like tanks, everything is with lag input and the only way to score goals is to pass the ball 100 times. That's not realism, that's bullshit. Every real life football game is much faster and versatile than this "simulation" game.
I felt lag input more in fifa 23
"Long pass" and... goal, lol, no creativity at all to score
as a career mode player, it's enjoyable to have some more realism to the feel of the players - that youre describing as 'tanks'
dw after a few weeks of crying to EA they'll update it to the overpowered, speed beast, end to end ping pong game that doesnt even vaguely resemble real football that you guys crave
@@TheASMRMedicthat’s what so annoying ab this, although EA is v annoying they actually made a good game this year. I can’t lie the input delay/lag def needs to be fixed, but the community complains about EVERYTHING and then lies and claims it isn’t nostalgia. As if every single FIFA hasn’t been people abusing mechanics to get the win on others. Most of the issue is with the ppl playing the game, though I admit EA has some work to do with this one frrl.
I'm Mr ananymous, a former programmer at EA. During my time there, I saw how the company prioritized profit over the quality and enjoyment of the games, often turning them into gambling machines with microtransactions. I strongly advise players to quit supporting and playing games that exploit their time and money. There's no value in supporting a system that treats players as a source of revenue.
As programmers, we strongly recommend quitting this unhealthy, addictive Zionist game immediately
These are our hidden secrets of the FC 25 game
"The term 'you' refers to us as programmers."
1. Invisible AI Buffs
Hidden Difficulty Scaling: You could secretly adjust the difficulty of the AI in a way that isn’t obvious to the player. For example, the AI could be given minor handicaps (lower accuracy, slower response times, less efficient decision-making) without the player noticing. This would give players the feeling of overcoming difficult challenges, but the game is actually making it slightly easier for them.
AI Mistakes or Blind Spots: Subtly increase the chances that AI-controlled players will make mistakes in certain situations, like missing shots, passing poorly, or losing track of the player’s actions. You could also give AI opponents blind spots or tactical gaps that the player can exploit-without it being too obvious or game-breaking.
2. Dynamic “Assist” Mechanics
Hidden Gameplay Assists: Introduce hidden gameplay assists that kick in when players are struggling. For example:
If the player’s team starts losing or is significantly outmatched, you could secretly tweak things like stamina, accuracy, or control responsiveness to give them a bit of an edge.
Auto-Correction: If a player makes a major mistake, like failing to block a goal or missing a critical pass, you could have an invisible system that automatically adjusts certain game elements to make the mistake less impactful (e.g., slightly correcting a shot angle, or automatically slowing down an opponent’s movement for a split second).
Adaptive AI: As the player plays and makes mistakes, the AI could slowly adjust its tactics to give the player more opportunities to succeed-for example, by reducing the AI’s pressure during key moments or making the AI miss more often in tense situations. This would be hard for the player to notice but would ensure they don’t feel like the game is punishing them too much.
3. Hidden Resource Management
Unseen Stat Boosts: Give the player hidden stat boosts to their team that they don’t see in the UI (like extra stamina, skill, or speed). For example, their players might have a slightly higher reaction time or accuracy than displayed on the stat sheet, making them more efficient in the game.
Stamina Buffs or Reduced Fatigue: You could subtly reduce player fatigue or increase recovery rates after certain actions, allowing players to maintain peak performance longer than they would expect. This could go unnoticed if the player doesn’t see exact stamina numbers or feel the difference until it’s too late for the AI to capitalize on its own fatigue.
4. Invisible Tactical Help
Invisible Tactical Guidance: Without revealing it, you could implement a form of AI-guided tactical suggestions that improve a player’s strategy. For instance:
If the player is consistently failing at a certain tactical decision (e.g., attacking too much or being too passive), the game could subtly adjust the AI's reaction to make it easier for the player to execute successful strategies.
For example, if the player tries to use a specific formation or strategy but is getting overwhelmed, the AI could "react in a way that supports the player's tactics" by slowing down or avoiding counter-strategies. It makes the player feel like they’re winning on their own, but the AI is subtly adjusting to make them succeed.
5. Event-Driven Player Buffs
“Luck” Factors: Introduce a hidden “luck” factor that affects the game’s outcomes. This could include things like:
Critical Event Boosts: Random events, like last-minute saves, post-hit rebounds, or missed penalties from the AI, could happen more often for the player. These would seem like “lucky breaks” that the player gets, but they’re actually part of a hidden system designed to increase the player’s win rate.
Random Power-ups: After certain in-game actions (like consecutive goals or perfect plays), the game could secretly boost the player’s next few shots or passes without them realizing it, making their plays seem more effective and increasing the chances of success.
6. Invisible Influence on AI Behavior
AI Adjustment to Player Performance: The AI could be secretly adjusting its tactics based on the player's perceived skill level. For example:
If the player is struggling, the game could make the AI team less aggressive or less coordinated, creating easier opportunities for the player.
If the player is performing exceptionally well, the AI might adjust by sacrificing defense for a brief moment or making strategic errors, giving the player a slight upper hand.
AI "Behavioral Loops": Sometimes, AI could unknowingly fall into certain patterns that the player can easily predict or exploit. You could adjust the AI's decision-making to favor the player’s typical moves, making it feel like the player is outsmarting the AI even though the AI is giving them small, hidden advantages.
7. Secret AI Vulnerabilities
AI Weaknesses at Key Moments: Create hidden vulnerabilities for the AI that kick in at critical moments (e.g., late in the game or when the player is about to lose). These could include things like:
AI Fatigue: When the player is close to losing or the game is nearing a critical point, the AI could subtly become slower or more error-prone without being obvious.
AI Overconfidence: If the AI is dominating, it could become overconfident and make mistakes in key moments, giving the player an unexpected advantage in clutch situations.
8. Player Guidance via UI Feedback
Subtle UI Feedback: Without telling the player directly, you could provide subtle feedback in the UI to help them succeed. For example:
Highlighting areas on the field or showing subtle directional cues when the player is about to make a key mistake.
Showing temporary stat boosts on the UI after certain actions (e.g., “+10% Accuracy” after completing a perfect pass), without explicitly telling the player how or why it happened.
Giving the player hidden hints (like slight camera zooms or visual indicators) that guide them toward high-probability winning plays, but without overtly changing the gameplay.
Final Thoughts:
Conclude by discussing any future updates, expansions, or goals you have for FC 25. This shows that you’re not just done with the project but are always looking to improve it.
I got the trail too and I like career mode this year, I’m not touching online.
The gameplay feels exactly like the last four years. The defending is atrocious. Teammate AI is non-existent. Just sick of EA Sports, and their cut and paste nonsense.
Remember when you gotnpoints for playing l, even just career mode and you could click R3 and a side menu would pop up and you could purchase things like retro kits, boots, financial boosts etc? Yeah, the moment they got rid of that, was the moment they stopped actually caring for the players and wanting to encourage them to play ANY game mode. This game is pure dung.
Agreed. They want this game to be online only and want to kill all joy involved in offline gameplay, it’s a shame.
I pre-ordered the game but still haven't played it because playstation won't let me download it, it has a lock on it and the support is useless and they won't refund me because i played the 10 hour trial -_-
Deserved for giving ea money imo.

Honestly always think the best thing to look at is CM. And this year it seems alot better. It'd just be miles better if they kinda loopholed licensing for national & club teams that ain't in.

Great vid buddy had me chuckling 😂
Rush saved the game for me, I wouldn't have considered 25 if it wasn't for that. I spent almost all of my time with the demo playing Rush and then got EA Pro so I could keep playing it. I think it's a much healthier framework for a competitive online mode. Let the rest of the game be the casual simulation experience it always used to be before FUT. Also as long as the server side delays that you mentioned exist, I can't possible take EAFC seriously as a competitive game, no matter how good everything else may get. Rush seems to be far less affected by those as well, if at all.
I don't think Rush will be neglected either, because I think people can see how much potential it has. Hopefully content creators like you will also keep the spotlight on it. One thing to note is how good Pro Clubs Rush really is. If you like Rush there is no reason not to (also) play it in Pro Clubs IMO, even as a solo drop in. FUT Rush has no competitive aspect (which is nice when you just want to chill), but in Pro Clubs Rush you get a proper ranking system and also player progression. I never tried Pro Clubs before so I almost would have missed it, but it's fantastic. I think it's easy to forget that there is a lot more to FIFA than the modern skinner box that is FUT.
Very honest and very good review, sir !
I have been waiting for bro to make this vid😂😂
The early release for the game was very good, but the when the game got released for everyone else the problem started coming to the game, EA I’ve done not too much in SBC not much tradable park which is bad and the gameplay at times has just been well rubbish and not too much objectives come out not that happy with it but still early days let’s see if anything better comes out just to tell you qualifying for the weekend week is going to be so hard. I don’t know why they tell you to win 3 games out of five, there’s a lot of people cannot do that. They are just trying to make the game hard for some people the better come up for some more ideas for weekend league because it’s just too hard even I am saying that🤔
Also we can’t edit composure stats in create a player which is a problem
I feel extreme pressure by just listening to you! As if I get 100 complicated work assignments at the same moment. Let alone paying 90 bucks and start playing it.
Stake well done (a heresy to The Gods of Meat) > Americans > Weirdoes. Yeah, that's about right since FIFA is an EA Montreal Product (from the pinnacle of football, or is it soccer, known as Canada).
How sick would it be if they added all time teams to seasons. If you play NBA 2k you know that you can play with the any teams roster of today. But you can also go back and play with the bulls with pippen and Jordan. How cool would it be if you could pick arsenals roster today, or pick the arsenal roster of old with van Persie. Maybe the old Liverpool with Suarez. It would expand the game so much more
Slower game play is nice as it makes it more realistic. The gameplay is too inconsistent though. The menus are slow, the acceleration boost is cheesy, bad attacking AI and you need to player lock all the time. Honestly the last good fifa was 17ish. Honestly I just play clubs now as ultimate team is so freaking sweaty. People just spamming broken game mechanics…it gets old.
This game,like ea fc 24 has a short lifespan.Besides rush and career mode,there isnt anything to do other than fut,and fut is going to probably be worse then last year because fifa has messed up players ratings(ps trossard has high dribbling and low shooting, so when he gets a promo card or a special card he can have regular lw stats)
12:35 it’s just scripting so that you lose the ball. The whole thing is so messed up and rigged you can literally feel in the controller how lagged everything is from the vert start and you just know the game is going to be against you and there’s nothing you can do about it. Genuinely infuriating
It's scripted, you become nervous, disappointed with your team and feel compelled to buy packages with players, hoping for better results with footballers bought with real money.
😂🤣 I’m weak asf bro you ether are good or ass plain an simple taking about scripted how online 1v1 scripted? u sound like a loser
In fc24 I noticed when you start your match and see your team, as you advance the last milisecond you’ll maybe see a change in team chemistry. With my end team from 33 chem Ive seen it go to 5, I lost massively
CM has some good additions in terms of features this year. The attacking AI from what you've shown here is a big yikes, and so is the 1v1 shots. I wonder if there will be a mod to fix these issues tho.
I hated FC24, but this is worse it makes me feel sorry for every slagging FC24 off. Everything feels clunky and slow, trying to turn on someone is just slow as hell, button delays are crazy its just not fun or enjoyable to play even career mode isnt fun.
Fifa need to make FUT as a free standalone game for people not interested in the other modes.
i mainly play squad battles on legend and upwards and I liked to play 32 games just some footy and chill but with the reduced matches i have nothing to do bc 14 is a bit to little and I cant be bothered to play anything except squad battles clubs draft and the career mode
so if you got beaten its not gonna be by me bc i will stay offline i do not want to sweat against a meta team with a 5 man chain
In FIFA Online (MMO PC game) 3 or 4 people can control one of the 11 players of the same team. Wish we have that in newer games. One's controlling GK, one controlling the defense, and so on..
I only have issues with the passes fr why change a game entirely?
Im not an online multi-player so i like it career got a lot of attention this year. The new ui takes some getting used to
Ngl this is the first fifa /fc I've played and I've had hella fun so far(I also haven't touched ut yet) but idk that might change but as for now imma have my fun
waited 3 days for you mate and you don't even disapoint
I tried to do a skill move 3 days ago, I'm still waiting for the input to register. Is there a hotline or some website where I have to register a skill move request in advance?
Pretty much agree with everything you said in this video. I believe this year like most years have potential to be great but stuff needs to be changed/patched in order for it to be a great game. Knowing EA they’ll never fix their exploits for example, (Speed boost glitch) and the game will die off because of this. Only thing I don’t agree with is the medium steak disrespect 😂
PS5 gamer here. Sometimes Rush will just be a black screen, and also anytime I try to play online friendlies on custom squads, the game crashes.
Hahah I tried my friend, I tried 😂 great video !
Rush is just Rocket League but with real soccer, kinda cool
In rocket league players actually defend tho.
@@darkdestroyy clearly you never played rl lmao, anything below plat is just ball chasing
For me the fact the menu is so lagged ruins EVERYTHING
I play squad battles and eat my steak well done what's your problem?
8:00 Me right here🙋🏻♂
I tried the game on PS5 before the standard edition came out and the menus were so laggy it was a nightmare. You had to press a button 2 or 3 times to make it register. It was horrible. Inside matches it was not like this but completing SBCa was a PITA
Rush is really fun if you are at least a group of three but there's no really reason to play it with those seasonal awards. I tried that mode, played some hours with friends and got the 70k points needed this season. And even doing evos in there is probably taking longer than sitting in squad battles
You are me in Rush, such a fun and infuriating game mode, is so fun when you have a couple of teammates that can actually play, but most of the time they look down and do the worst impression possible of Messi trying to dribble the whole opposite team, and yeah nobody defends lol
11:54 isn't that what L1 or Left Button is for? So they make runs, the player would've made the run if LB was pressed
Man shut up🤦🏽♂️.
🤓
For us who've played older Fifa games (fifa98-fifa23) players are intelligent enough to attack space and get into places to receive one twos, something that the game lacks and one of the reasons I still play Fifa 14.
@davidbeatus4243 you gotta force them to make runs with LB, too many times, I've thrown my controller up screaming "Why he stopped?!?!?!?!?!" Especially fifa 14
@@ramonmartinez7775LB shouldn’t be the only time a player makes runs, that’s just silly.
Plus the fact that when you press LB, the player runs way past the offside line, it looks ridiculous and is a waste of stamina. Whole games a mess lol
It’ll be fine once we can use controllers on PC without disabling inputs and external software. A glitch that bad that early on is a concern, a big one
Rush is actually the first time I could actually see this being a legit esports gamemode within FIFA/FC
First time I have never purchased this game on lunch day Chelsea fan here it’s hard to watch this with that Arsenal banner smh
The interaction with Zidane in the start when he talks about tactics is being overlooked because everyone just skips it
But man
It gave me the chills it's wonderfully done which is rare by EA
i also tried the 10 hours and i tried a few UT modes and the most of the time offline modes, i enjoyed the carrere mode and rush to get the game, now with a few days after the release Ultimate team is horrible the IA is really bad, the defense is really bad and the GK are a joke, not only the IA dont attack or help you, this is the first time i regret get the game, should have gotten it with discount, i will play it without any care about if i win or lose, when the UT finish i will still have a good football offline game
I've been playing fifa since the snes days & it's just another fifa, I'm enjoying it like I've enjoyed every other fifa that has ever existed 👍
I was starting to crumble in terms of giving in to the FIFA withdrawals NGL 😅 This video came just in time
block the eafc category on twitch if you go there often. Thank me later
Was literally here for the gameplay section. Glad to hear its as inconsistent as always Oh well guess i'll try again next year
This is the best review ive seen on the game so far. As someone on the fence since hearing the mixed reviews, you saying that the gameplay is STILL slow and kinda inconsistent turns me away yet again:/
Dude EAFC 24 was so bad that the skill level of people who would normally be in Divisions 5-8 were killing it in the top divisions by just using pacey teams and booting the ball down the field and praying.
The f’d up thing is that people used to absolutely cry f’n lakes and rivers about lobbed through balls back in the FIFA 12-13 days… or as I call them THE LAST DAYS OF SKILL IN THE FIFA SERIES… yet you hardly hear a peep about it now. Even worse is back in the older days you could easily actually shut this tactic down and I mean EASILY.
The problem is the Ultimate Team players trash the game because they basically did nothing. Its a really good game CM has improved and its amazing. Everyone just plays Ultimate Team and trashes the game as they dont know how to play anything else. FC IQ is genuinely amazing and has improved CM so much and i think its a main stay. Overall FC 25 is great for CM players and trash for UT players who cant play any other mode.
So people don’t play pro clubs? Talking out of your ass
CM still has it's own massive amount of problems, though. Like how they're honestly managing the Youth Academies is just weird and I'd almost say they need to make it seperate tab. + The many things online gamemodes has accessories & features-wise that aren't even thought to be implemented into CM or Player Career. Being unable to toggle the settings mid-save is also absolutely the biggest downside of the entire game. And I wish EA would just stop being weird with it.
In terms of tactics, don't pay much attention to the heat map. It's not accurate, but once you figure out what tactics work for you, they're very consistent
It still needs tons of improvement but it’s better than some past games.
My rush teammates might be the dumbest players ever
I don't think I've played a FULL 90 minute match in rivals or champs. As soon as someone is 2 goals up either I leave or my opponent leaves, because all the goals were utter bullshit and can't be fucking arsed.
Just so your research make the game realistic and continue to tweak until it’s perfect, I got a pes like game play and I’m still fine tuning
Tbh, the review I was waiting for
Sometimes I play squad battles for the rewards so glad I dont have to do 32 games for something good as I never was able to get 32 done
Only problem i have with the game is that sometimes it randomly closes itselfs when i press either R1 or L3 making it very tedious to play. Im playing on Pc connected with a controller.
