FIFA Will Never Be Good Until This Is Fixed

[@RickPatNB]

I wish this video would be watched by millions. Nothing but straight up facts being covered. I love how you criticize your own passes. Something which over 90% of the community isn't able to do. They either blame the game or the player.

[@fuzzykeuh]

That's why i feel FIFA has become a game not about football, but about who knows what exploits work best. As a defensive player i really miss those interceptions and reward for good positioning the most. Also the 'loading up' of tackles makes no sense to me. Should just be hard tackle at the press of a button. In reality it doesn't take a full second to think about your tackle either. Just a broken scripted mess where the AI decides everything for you based on playercard stats.

People really need to WAKE UP, The game is completely scripted to make you lose on purpose against an opponent who is completely shit but ends up wining....you lose so you sell your team, spend money on fifa points then buy packs with EA clever weekly promotion marketing gimmick. THE GAME IS A SCAM, EA have even admitted to dynamic difficulty (scripting) and have a patent for it, stopped playing this year after a month.

Great video, and the answer isn’t “manual passing” either as it still feels somewhat assisted and makes no sense sometimes. Diagonal passes to the winger from center midfield always get intercepted no matter who is marking. Never goes the proper direction or weight.

[@mshuffle7024]

I have noticed all that on FIFA19 which was the only FIFA I ever bought and probably the last one if they continue to rewrap the same sh*t year after year. The way I see it is - they have enough buyers to not care about quality. If there was a third company (except EA and Konami) to work on football games and if they develop a game without licences but with good and real mehanics, I think they could compete on the market.

[@Faranhype]

Through passes are not like they used to be. That 17 flashback had me in nostalgic tears 😢

[@claauudiuu]

For me the most frustrating part is the interception part where I perfectly run and cut for so many times the passing lanes of my opponent but he easily continues passing and my cdm s with 437 interception stat and 931 defensive awareness just admire how the ball come and go. The passing are broke aswell but the ones who understand and saw in the last 15 years a full 90 minutes of a match and are trying to keep it as real as they can, not a ball roll and drag back fest, absurd passes and so on, don t even think to try a pass like in the example. But people are enough stupid to abuse the mechanics and then shushing you for that kind of a goal. And that destroys the game completely and make people destroy controllers and get out the worst of them. Excellent video!

[@donmono66]

Isn't that the main problem , those idiots abusing the mechanics, getting to a certain spot and doing the same shitty shots with the same meta player they know this broken game lets you score?! There should be a variety of different play styles but it feels like you are playing against the same idiot over and over again. after figuring out what works they use it relentlessly, if you could score a goal just by hitting x 3 times they would use it.So what are they playing this game for, just meaningless wins ? Obviously people who don't have much else going for them in their lives. unfortunately there are too many of them out there, buying packs and wasting oxygen.

When you play squad battles, and can immediately review your replays it becomes even more glaringly obvious how terrible the passing is. Awful pass selection, ground passes being played through, through passes being played behind the target. Trash game.

[@Gipfegrantler]

Yeah scritping exists and has effects on certian settings in the EA Fifas but mate - @ Stallion - if you use assisted passing or even semi- assisted then it is clear why passes and also shots do result in this way - I have abandoned assisted or semi assisted settings since Fifa 13 or so and once adjusted to the bit less arcady - more pes- simulationy controls - at least for fifa 18 or 20 ( skipped 19) it was quite accurate and reasonable how the passing and shots are being dealt with -- and AI -well #20 added quite a difficulty leap which longterm - career players like me ( and a considerable amout of youtubers ) really like. I honestly found some long awaited AI playstyle alternations after the patch from about 2 months ago. Its not all bad - is what I wanted to add )) keep the spirit!

Good video dude. I lose 3 weekend league games a week, when i cut out a pass and the ball rolls thru my defenders legs and my opponent shoots middle of net for goal.

Not to mention ai defending of center backs just walking around like they are walking a dog in the park while the ball is in my box and players making runs. I think the scripting scews up every aspect of the game. Makes passes go thru players legs, countless games i conceide a goal middle if net goalie just wont move or ball goes thru his fingers.

[@guitarfreak888]

I loathe 20's passing system, if it's still the same in 21 then I'm going to skip it. Not trying to defend EA here but I think they've actually done a pretty decent job fixing what deemed to be "broken" in previous iteration, at least there is willingness from them to fix what's "broken". For example, in 18 you can use driven pass as a through ball, problem was it's not supposed to be that way AND it turned out it's OP. So they fixed that and other stuffs, but yes, so many things are still "broken". And it seems that everytime they fix something, it creates another problem of its own. Like that thing of being unable to pass our way out of our box when attacked, I think 20's passing system is a byproduct of that logic. EA obviously tried so hard to change our way of playing the game, one of them is our behavior to use pass button instead of shoot or cross button to clear the ball. They don't want us to be able to pass comfortably from the back, so they make the passing system like that, they want it to be more random and force us to consider clearing with shoot and cross button. Problem is, it also affects passing in the final third as the passing script/coding is global in nature and should be the same anywhere on the pitch, hence it becomes non-sensical in the final third. Same thing happened with goal kick, they obviously don't want us to restart play quickly so they slowed it down. All these are done to force our behavior to change but the result is a frankenstein of a game…….

[@xErenYegerx]

Dionyssus Adhie spot on bro spot on!

[@fuzzykeuh]

I think you haven't been playing FIFA very long if thats how you feel tbh. I played since FIFA12 and they have a long history of removing perfectly working mechanics in a new years version and then "fixing it" the next year. While in reality they just bring back how it used to be to begin with. I don't call that fixing. That's why i was expecting them to "fix" defending this year, because it has been broken for 2 years, but they now made it 3 years and didn't fix anything, the only thing really new is the ball physics. FIFA17 was in essence a very good football game, but they removed the majority of player control and changed it with automated animation and AI deciding things for you instead of rewarding your brain. Players change direction like a truck now, even if you press the L2 that is supposed to give defender more strafecontrol. The manual movement button is removed so you cannot get out of automated AI runs anymore. If the AI decided your player locks onto the ball, you cannot back out anymore to position yourself better for the next ball, and thus leaving more space for the attacker. Even if you still manage to position yourself perfectly, the defender doesn't even stick his foot out anymore, even if the ball is rolling 1mm from his feet. 90+ Shooting? Instead of making better shots, just makes the goalkeepers react later/slower to the shot. 90+ Passing? Instead of making more accurate passes, just makes the defenders less able to intercept them, as shown in this video, the AI sometimes even passes it around the defender, totally disregarding where you were actually aiming by even 45°. 90+ Dribbling? instead of having closer control so you can change direction faster to try fool the defender, you can now basicly just run passed him because the dribbling stat of the attacker make him not react to the ball as long as you have it. Also when you do a skillmove to the right, the AI will decide the defender fell for it, and move the defender to the right, even if you have been pressing left all along because you predicted what he was going to do. This is the least rewarding football game for anyone who has football IQ.

All you can say about FIFA20 passing is that it is inconsistent. If you are passing from defense even if it is overhead clearance that pass will have bonus accuracy and will go directly to your player. Passing in final third are usually trash and passing in midfield are aslo bad/inconsistent speacialy if gameplay is slow witch it is 90% of time for me at least. We talk about all kind of FIFA20 shit but for me one is above all other. GAMEPLAY! Players in Germany, Sweeden, Holland will always have huge advantage in gameplay/speed, player reaction time and even passing will be better/quicker for them.
