And we got another Year of horrible Gameplay, Serverlags and Pay to Win. EA Sports is all bad together in the Gaming Industry. They just care about Money and not about the People.

Anouther Average Fifa Affair

Warning: Spoilers
Not the worst Fifa tbh I think it's better then the two previous ones. I was having a 10hr free trial playing with my team Tottenham. I scored a goal and had 7 attempts at that point with the other team with 4 attempts I had an Expected Goals of 0.98 they had theres at 1.05 WTF??? EA. They had half charnces and I was 1v1 I only had the Keeper to beat but I have a less Expected Goals it doesn't make any sence. The game is also very laggy which can be a pain considering I'm sometimes off line. The Referee's are so bad. Some of the Red Cards and blatant red Cards aren't given I have no idea why. Although if I'm to be completely honest with you I like how they've added in extras like how much passes you've made Exc Exc. Not the worst Fifa and you may or may not enjoy it. The goalkeepers are also overpowered so no more of this near post nonsense. This Review Helps people.
Finally a good one

Same momentum rubbish
factordan13 January 2022
As usual if you go a couple of goals up against your opponent momentum scripting will kick in and turn your players into bricks who won't do anything and your opponent can easily draw level and even win the game.
And as usual it's all about EA squeezing money out of players with FIFA points.

I have played fifa since 2005 and in my opinion this is the 3rd best fifa, the last 3 fifa's (fifa 21, fifa 20 and fifa 19) made me cry, but this fifa made me happy, gameplay is good, soundtracks are amazing, career mode is great and ultimate team is legendary.
Not just the worst football game ever made
davidmagill-7514419 November 2021
If there's 1 thing EA are good at. It's churning out some of the worst games ever made year upon year. It's actually baffling how little changes every year. Its clear to me that EA are a company that has always placed more value on profit rather than gameplay. FIFA 22 is genuinely laughable at times and is not just one of the worst football games ever made. I'd place it on my list of the worst games in general. Horrific.
Keepers ARE the defence
delaricardo10 May 2022
Keepers are like something out of Marvel and can now save most shots with any limb of their body. Whilst this keeps the FIFA 21 Cricket scores down to now just NBA scores, unfortunately the defenders are still smoking some herbal substances.
Non selected players do not tackle and in fact run away from the player attacking, pace is still everything and is the classic FIFA goal coined ? Down the byline and cut it back to 3/4 players with no defence. EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR.
This was a free game on PS Plus this month. Can see why Deleted.

Its not football
fallendrom9 June 2022
It is lazy cashgrab with gameplay worse that pes 2010 (fun thing that new pes is trash too)
Phisics of this game is just terrible. I wonder if devs played football even once in their life or even watched it on the TV screen
Shots are pathetic, ball is flying so slowly after player hits it that goalkeepers take almost every shot. You will never score from outside the box, dont waste your time trying to shoot from distance. "More than 20 meters from the goal is too big of a distance to score" this devs might think. Looks like there are so little scripts/variants about how the shot will go and how the keeper will react so almost every shot and save or goal looks the same.
I never scored a single goal or even dangerous shot from corner kick, even the top players like Harry Cane cant win the air after corner kick.
Penalty shots are such a pain in the ..., if you play vs player 2 he either see where you are going to strike cause for some idiotic reason fifa has a literal aim for this shots or neither you and your opponent can see where you are going to hit and you easyly miss the goal cause stupid system needs you to literally aim and it is a bit hard if you cant see where is your aim at the moment. Me and my friend played a few series of penalty shots being unable to score and the one who scored even one penalty won the series. Its just embarassing.
But the worst thing is described HERE: THE DAMN AUTOBALANCE or what can i call it. The situation when your team is turning to a brick and you can tell right from the start of the game that you are not winning this. Becasue your players are not moving, not opening, not going to attack no matter what options you change, even if you are using the most offensive options you can - your players just stand and not playing the game. And ofc your passes accuracy suddenly decreases like twice and defenders cant hit the ball or cover players. And that is the way you lose 0:3 to a guy that you have beaten 5 times in a row with 3-0, 4-2, 4-0, 4-2, 6-0 scores. Its just the game that is playing against you when some stupid script is deciding it will. Terrible experiece, bad game.

EA Sports should be ashamed !!!
yhosam-9967012 October 2022
I'm playing fifa since 2012 and believe me this is the WORST FIFA ever. Worst Gameplay ever !! If i can give it 0 Stars that would be perfect. Wish i never paid for that garbage. First of all after you play a lot of games you will notice that this game is slightly scripted. Sometimes when you try to tackle and get the ball you feel like it's automatically changing it's direction and after that exact action you conceed a goal !!! This game is so scripted it makes me wanna kill myself sometimes. And what's up with that defence ? Huh ! Defenders only watch u getting battered and humiliated. I'm not buying FIFA ever again and please give me back my money.
It would be higher if seasons was better
markberry26920 January 2022
Career mode is decent apart from seasons for me is what makes this fifa the worst football game ever it's like they purposely want you to lose to your opponent, players are way to slow so you can't catch up and once you have the ball the catch you up almost instantly which is just unfair I would have scored it a lot higher as I thoroughly enjoyed it until I played season then it just made me hate the game they make the high rated players who have a lot of pace run slower than my grandma which is just depressing I hope fifa 23 is a lot better than this!
The game it self is spectacular
ggdwcyfb16 December 2022
But I don't really know why we should pay 60-70 dollars every year for the same game (almost)
-------------------------------------------------
Ok there little changes but does it worth 60-70 dollars ( maybe 80in some countries )
Of course not.
------------------------------------------------- In older fifa games (2021 -2019-2020...etc ) Iw as saying that the soundtrack is good at least But this game even the soundtrack is bad ------------------------------------------------- This is the last fifa game I'll buy I ain't buying 23 or whatever the number was
May be after 2-3 years I'll buy one to get better graphics ------------------------------------------------- I am quitting ultimate team and I'll play fifa only for fun with friends and family and stop being pro player
Thank you for reading.

I've given up supporting this game
rohanumpleby-3405711 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Super scripted. Some people even calling this one of the best, don't be fooled buy what they say. There Goalkeepers can save anything, and mine can't. They can make a 5 yard pass, mine can't. My Gk concedes every shot he faces. I tried changing the sliders to how my team plays and it just doesn't work. The defense is non-existent if I played the whole match I'd probably loose like 6-0. Minimal effort went into this game again. If you think this is the best Fifa then clearly you haven't played the likes of Fifa 08, Fifa 13 & 14. A far superior 15, 16,17. The only Fifa that this one tops is Fifa 19, that's not saying much as anything could top that game. Perhaps even Fortnite smh...Garbage like every year yet again!!!. The only good thing about this game is it let's you see the expected goals which is a new feature. One of the worst Fifa games
1.5/10 TRASH.

The worst soccer game in history
mmsnake2310 June 2023
The worst soccer game in history, I am very envious of computer AI team who can always score one goal with one shot, two goals with two shots, three goals with three shots, and more organized than Barcelona.
Players team always weaken and become mentally handicapped when own team is ahead. When player team lead, the AI team must be able to tie in the next attack.
Also, The computer AI team dribbling is always stronger than Messi, passing accuracy than Xavi.
It is absolutely the most unrealistic and awful soccer game. I hope that EA will never launch a new soccer game to torment with players.

A spectacular soccer game but not a realistic one
AvionPrince1624 March 2022
The game is incredible in his content on what he propose. They have a lot of game modes. That can sound incredibely good but what is the biggest problem as always for me it was the gameplay. Even if i found the game need to be more play in pass and to think in the construction to make the game i found it very awful. The players are sliding on the pitch abd feel very weird. But what i hate the most: its the way that the player with big. Speed are better to play with in the game. Sometimes people play and just make the run and dribble all the players and i feel that awful because no player can do this in real life. That s a shame to have some big content like this but not a good gameplay.
Not Abysmal But The Same Every Year.

For me FIFA 22 isn't necessarily a bad game, but it's bogged down a lot but the fact it hasn't changed in years.
FIFA 22's football can be called more arcade at point but with sliders and the match presentation it is easily passable. I wouldn't say it is the most realistic sports game let alone game in general, but i looks fine and isn't as bad as people claim it to be. I'm someone who plays FIFA on the hardest difficulty (Ultimate). This isn't my attempt to show off but rather me stating i am decent at the game. I have been playing FIFA a very long time (since around FIFA 08) so i feel i have a decent grasp on the game. That being said i am not a part of the community at all. I say all this as i feel the game is so very unchanged when it comes to gameplay. This would be fine if the gameplay didn't need changing, however it can always be improved in the case of FIFA. 22 feels like 21 that feels like 20 and so on. If you have FIFA 21 and you don't care much about the updated kits and stuff then you might as well keep FIFA 21 and not buy this. Although if you pay online that may be hard. This is because people obviously move games when a new one comes out, like a new Call of Duty for example.
The Career Mode is mostly (if not completely) unchanged. The Online modes like Ultimate Team (which is the biggest mode) and Pro-Clubs are mostly unchanged as well. The are also very confusing parts such as in Ultimate Team they have a pretty in-depth stadium builder yet in Career Mode when given the option to create your stadium it's got far less features and is kinda poor. They could have copied and pasted the one from the online mode tot the offline mode i'm sure, strange.
The games visuals are pretty nice if you're looking for a "realistic" match-day experience. That being said it is also pretty much unchanged (for the most part) from last years and the year before game.
To sum up FIFA 22 is that it has many things people take issue with in other games. The same way certain people feel about Call of Duty and i feel about Hitman 3. By this i mean that although it isn't a very bad game or anything, it is unchanged (or at the very least not changed enough) and doesn't deserve a full game price tag.
Overall FIFA 22 is a fine for a Football/Soccer game but it's simply unchanged the past few years if not longer, 3/10.

FIFA22 what can I say? Much like previous fifa games except I am now playing this one on the new generation console PlayStation 5. Graphics are great although still a little cartoony and certain players in the premiership look nothing like who they are supposed to be. I wouldn't have gone out my way to buy this as there isn't enough improvement from year to year. However I got it as part of PlayStation plus. I am currently hearing this may well be the last fifa and I can't say I'd be overly sad to see it go. I mainly play this game online, unfortunately even here it has issue caused by the game developers. Everyone has clocked on to the fact that PSG stats are far superior to any other team. So now practically everyone plays as Paris Saint Germain. Sorry but Mbappe isn't that good you got it wrong by a long shot. Just because he is advertising the game doesn't make him that much better than all the other players. So now annoying to make it to division one on season most find themselves playing as PSG rather than the team they actually support.
Career mode is pretty much the same with pointless cut scenes of managers which seem time wasters. I preferred the older fifa where you didn't have to see the negotiations although there is an option to skip this. Gameplay wise it still seems to move from one end of the pitch to their other way to quick. Maybe it's time to just pay for a pitch to update the teams each year. FIFA seems to have reached its limit for the time being and needs its much needed rest to develop something new.
