Thing is with ea is that they have realism and arcadiness in the opposite parts of the game. The meta should be more realistic based on passing and movement rewarding the player for their vision and ability to build up and it should be arcade in things like dribbling/defending. If I tackle properly or time my skill move right, while it may not be realistic, I should always win the ball/beat my man.

[@luthergnade7246]

Maybe with worse cards there’s a smaller window of opportunity to make the correct tackle or dribble but if I time it right with mbappe or a 47 rated bronze it should work

FC24 with assisted controls is 0% realistic. It's a football version of ping-pong, in which you get rewarded for finding a hole in a defence and sending a through-pass. There is no middle game. Movement feels robotic. Gameplay is so fast that only a hyperactive 6 y.o. could enjoy it. For me, there is no fun in it. I also don't care about FC being an e-sport game. It's supposed to be a football sim game and I would like the gameplay to resemble actual football match. This thing is only playable with fully manual controls.

[@zedgenius9347]

Fifa would massively benefit if it was 2 seperate games. One focusing on online and esports and the other centered around career mode with the more realistic feel. What they have been doing is mixing those 2 up, so you end up with a game that doesn't reward good play against other people but is also totally unrealistic when you try to take a team and manage it. Constant flicks, stupid looking skill moves and all the fut nonsense do not belong in CM, while randomness and not rewarding good play does not belong in a mode where you have Sam Kerr and Pele linking up to score for a team with Lyon's badge and Marseille's kit named Cockfc69 for the sake of "realism".

[@Ma1q444]

There’s nothing wrong with realism. FIFA is not realistic at all i have never seen in real life defenders literally run away from the ball and refuse to mark attackers. The game has some underlying fun features but the core gameplay makes it unplayable, I just had a game where it was 1-1 and nothing happened in 20 minutes then guess what happens in the 93rd minute with +1 time given, I tackle the ai the ball ricochets off my player and exactly to the ai leading to a through ball and of course my defenders not reacting and a goal.

[@DagnalDiagonal]

It's more about rewarding good plays. Those high scoring games typically have finesse/trivelas, not 6 or 7 1v1 opportunities. Manual controls would be a bit better

[@elimun10]

It’s all for the money at this point. Players who are new to the game will see nothing wrong with it and drool over the Hypermotion technology and all that. I’ve been playing since FIFA 12 and I don’t think I’ve raged over matches as much as I have in the past 3 years. There’s a difference between losing to a good opponent who’s simply better, and losing because my defenders turn into 2nd graders any time Mbappe has the ball or any time my opponent decides to full press with Madrid or PSG

[@merdt23]

Tbh I would enjoy those random moments instead of hardcoded to score trivela shots

[@DagnalDiagonal]

Either one is bad tbh

[@jaredmasinton234]

Been watching clips from fut 17/18 and it’s amazing how much more fun those games were. Graphics and animations were less realistic but they were so fast paced, snappy, end to end with so much space on the pitch. It’s crazy how year on year we’ve gotten less fun games and you’re right, I really think it’s due to the emphasis on realism.

[@achrafmarouane9773]

I’d take a more realistic game except that’s absolutely not the case for FC 24, it is arguably getting less realistic for two reasons: 1. Animations: EA seems to believe that adding more animations equates to increased realism. However, the reality is that these additional animations often lead to bizarre scenarios where three of your players inexplicably collide with each other, giving your opponent an easy goal. This situation occurs far too frequently, not to mention the issues with overpowered playstyles. 2. AI: that was one of fifa’s major assets, but Instead of improving on it, it is getting worse with each release, and it impacts the gameplay experience. EA is trying to place the burden of controlling all 11 players w with their movement on and off the ball on a single gamer. So “realistically” you’re expected to replicate what 11 players would normally do on a football pitch using one controller.

[@elitristan3601]

True. More animation also means if you press a button the outcome will get inconsistent or less predictable. It just doesn't feel good. I think they made a big mistake with the Playstyles. At first I liked the idea but if you see how it really works it's just not good. Defenders without a specific Playstyle won't do a certain animation anymore. They are just bad. Even with good stats.

Sounds like you're making it sound more complicated than it really is.

[@LordCarmesimXXVII]

What has been killing FIFA in recent years is the lack of realism, the speed of the game is too fast, players have too much pace, pinball passing, too much dribbling and "skill" moves. FIFAs 10 to 16 were so good because they were more realistic, better gameplay.

[@hmontalvo90]

"Realistic" in pretty sure de bruyne doesn't get his pass intercepted when his teammates are wide open and 5 yards away

[@jamminb177]

The ability to successfully complete any action in any given scenario in fifa, should relate directly to that players attributes and physical stats. This is the realism that the game needs. A center back should miss a 1 v 1 5/10 times even when you the player do everything right not because he’s a center back and that’s realistic, but because he doesn’t have the in game attributes and or physical stats to make the most of the situation. Otherwise what’s the point of the finishing and attacking positioning stats?

[@mightymo6167]

Id argue they dont watch football to know what realism is. For real tho, playing this game, quite clear to see the devs dont watch footy. No patterns of play, just run down the wing. Or use 71 depth and have auto press all game without any effect to stamina? Realism where every finesse or trivela goes in? If u watch real footy, you will know that Ea dont. Id be happy if my players could just run without being stuck in the mud. Dont even get me started on the refs

[@superninjaboyx]

It’s not anything close to realistic. Players in real life don’t just stand still and let defenders mark them without any effort lol. Attacking AI is completely rubbish.

[@Dark47Killer]

I honestly thing that game just needs more settings, Look at it this way, if the game added settings for SINGLEPLAYER only to make it more realistic that would be awesome. Leave the competitive game to be competitive, just like controller settings you have the competitive settings you are forced to use. Do the same ingame options that the game has preset settings for Multiplayer gamemodes set as competitive and let the people who play singleplayer tweak there game to make it more realistic. Like some have said, PES does this really well with how there game is and making you be able to set all your controls to fully manual and such, give the people more freedom to make the game feel better for singleplayer and watch the player count grow.

The realism that Fifa needs to add is no precise first-time passes/shots when your back is facing the targeted player/area. Also the rng of tackles and skill moves needs to be adapted somehow, because you should 100% get rewarded every time you properly read and tackle someone or when you time your skill move or just your movement with the LS perfectly. You should get rewarded, but in fifa, only rng decides if you are getting rewarded or not.

That is not how a game should be. Imagine, mastering the moves in God of War, and then then the big boss kills you with something random every time. How annoying would that be? Or in GTA, an enemy attacks you with a random weapon you have never seen before. It is that annoying. If I make the effort to get that one on one, reward me, and punish the opponent for that.

Very interesting video and thanks for explaining people why ultra realism can be bad for those games. From someone mainly playing racing games, yes, in this domain, more realism (if the game aims to be a sim) is what we want, but for other sports, no. I'd say FIFA should take the example of NBA 2K about that rewarding stuff you said. In 2K despite ultra realism, you're rewarded if you do everything perfect. A bad shooter can score a three pointer if you manage to hit green. Also from my point of view, when I ask for realism, I mean everything that goes around the actual gameplay. Like the scoreboard, the crowd, the stadiums, etc. To me, realism in sports game should be about the immersion in the environment rather than the physics itself.

My take on finishing: Inside the box, finishing is garbage. It shouldn't be 100% goal, but it should be buffed a little. First time shots, tap ins, are HORRIBLE, they need to be buffed greatly. Out side of the box, shots are way too OP. But they are meant to be OP, to counter passive, park the bus defending. As for the realism, it should not be realism simulator. If it were, no one would be playing, after having an opponent who would be passing around the back for half an hour.

I actually like realistic games when they're souls like, lore games where the intent is to be as hard as humanly possible and challenge the players in a beautiful open world. But not in Fifa, yes I do love the realism too it but not too realistic. I am glad someone else still calls it Fifa, I tried calling it FC24 it felt wrong so I just call it Fifa 24 and one of my mates didn't like it, he can eat...

[@thewhitekirby3973]

To add to the point about "souls like" games. It actually HELPS against the argument. Souls likes like Cuphead or Hollowknight are hard by design, but the reason why people play them is the reward factor for mastering a game and beating the obstacle in front of you. Imagine if at the end of a boss fight in those games there was a "random chance" that the boss would respawn or regain health or the final blow would "miss". That's what's in happening in FIFA right now, it doesn't reward you for knowing the game.

Player movement (ice skating), breaking laws of physics, ball moving weightless - that's what not realistic in FC24. Player missing chance or referee giving wrong decision is not what we mean when we say we want realistic game.

This game is an absolute pile of garbage. It has become a more AI-defensive game.

[@brunitr0661]

There's no way to be realistic with players sliding on the field

[@markokolega133]

Ive lost sooo many games when i desserved to win by 3 or more goal diference its just disgusting

[@tobymarx-dunn2332]

You only deserve to win games that you win. That’s how sports works. Nothing is given everything is earned. Your weak mentality is showing

[@markokolega133]

@@tobymarx-dunn2332 its my weak mentality when my gk makes a mistake or when the ref gives a non existent pen? Sure. Eafc is a well known balanced game. I didnt play videogames for 15 years btw so i probably dont know whT i am talking about. Nice observation you brainwashed

[@Jefstito]

Oh, yes, the realistic game of FIFA, where you can spend an entire year doing Tornado crosses into bycicle kicks... insane

[@captacao528]

When the last man n your team plays your opponent 30 yards inside instead of hold the line .

What EA has done and probably the term we're looking to use is "selective realism". The game is trying to be "realistic" with all the animations while at the same time there are unrealistic parts/features of the game such as GK movement. I like my football video game to be arcadey hence "unrealistic" but if we're about to add more "unrealism" into them, I think we need to agree that "unrealism" like GK movement is stupid and is not acceptable at all. On the other spectrum, some realistic features are stupid and are not acceptable also. These are constant pressure, pressuring up high and gegenpressing (press after possession loss). I know it's trying to keep it up to date with real modern football and it's realistic but it can be abused and make the whole experience worse. Realistic or unrealistic, all the game mechanics/features that are stupid and make the whole experience worse must not be in the game. Things like missing an open goal, dropping back AI defending, double four low block, GK movement, constant pressure, clunky movement, unable to make a simple 5-yard pass, two-tackle tax, iso-play, ultra defensive formations being OP etc etc, we have to agree that all these must be kicked out from the game. We all have to agree that "selective realism" is bad.
