EA got SO CLOSE - EA FC 25 Review

EA FC 25 has everything it needs to be a great football game. It has the best licensing, great menu content and finally a really fun variation of different game modes. But, it still has familiar issues, with a frustrating gameplay experience holding it back from being the game we all deserve.

If you've played 3 times with early access, a closed beta and now, how can you not realise that the players play with their knees under the ground and ice skate all around the pitch ?

I can't believe these content creators man, talk and praise all the features, the game has this, the game has that, the shirt is moving and the players have shadows, lol who cares ? Give me a game where the players, especially the AI actually move and dribble.

Game is a complete joke, cash grab child friendly casino

PES 5 & 6 still remain unrivalled for pure enjoyment & gameplay. Can't believe how far football games have fallen over the last 20 years.

[ezitobezito]

the gameplay is still gliding and skating, who dribbles and turns like that in real life. Go play PES 2021 or Efootball 2025.

Seen guys already saying they regretted getting the game after day 1 lol. I warned people this was going to happen when they were releasing the trailers but they didn’t wanna listen. Happens literally every year but people are always hooked to a new game like it’s a shiny toy. Problem is, the game rarely changes but minor variables that everyone’s sick of in a week. It’s October and there are SO many rant videos already it’s a joke and I bet they’ll be stacked this year. It’s going to be another year of rage and risk of health problems (that’s if you can control your anger and many people can’t as the game is broken and you will lose it at some point) Going to keep saying it, EA will have no choice but to do needed open heart surgery on their game when people STOP BUYING IT but that’s never going to happen. Glad I didn’t succumb to getting this garbage especially after the shambles that was fc24 because that is my last ever FIFA I’m purchasing unless I see massive changes. Been buying FIFA games since FIFA 11 only ever missed buying FIFA 21. Was a good run by enough is enough

This monopoly on sports games sucks man.

They didn’t get close the new game is fecking shite! FIFA23 was so damn fun and this plays awful, passing, skill, defending it is EAFC24 in a different skin!

Gameplay is the most important part and it feels terrible. Players move horribly when you’re controlling them.

1st 15 seconds of vid - “bad gameplay and frustrating experience. . . “ Same year, same issues, more marketing.

Literally a complete copy and paste of the last game. No personality with the players you are using or movement off the ball. Meta is still dominated by gay deep lines and 5 at the back. Rebounds are worse than ever and there no creativity due to one passing lane being open if ur lucky. Don’t waste ur money or time these year boys it’s the laziest fifa ive ever seen.

[thanosforever]

We’re so used to hating on fifa, but I’m surprised by how smooth and nice it plays. It’s really nice.
Rush is amazing too. I honestly love this, and I haven’t loved fifa since FIFA 16.

[roundlawyer]

The only reason I’m buying the game is for career mode and the updated squads lmao

[NELC]

Who gives a crap about all this tactic stuff people just want to play the damn game and battle on the field

Started my ps5, there is a review from you on the news panel where you quote "THE BEST GAME EA HAS RELEASED IN YEARS" on FC25.

[TScope_ezekiel]

it's funny how everyone cried for a fifa street styled game mode since 2016, got it when Volta arrived and then cried that no one wanted it. Good that it's gone, but this community is weird

[megaplexXxHD]

After receiving the last 3 games as gift i gave the game another chance and bought it this year myself. It is an utter joke and once again a perfect example that ea doesnt care about anything other than FUT.
The youth academy player faces look absolutely horrible and unhuman. You cant tell me ea didnt notice that! This basically makes all the new youth features unnecessary because who tf wants to train players that look like they had 10 failed plastic surgeries.
Walkout anthems in premier league seem to bug out also making the cutscenes look weird.
Pausing in youth academy matches makes the menu music play together with the ingame music you so have 2 tracks beeing played over each other.
The news board basically turned into an absolute joke. You get the same news 3 times in a row with the same picture and only the coach on the picture changes.
The press conference also is just terrible, same questions everytime, sames answers everytime. Basically just a waste of time with zero realism or immersion factor.
Theres so much more that bothers me but unfortunately its the only game around if you want to play career mode :/ i hate EA so much for treating this franchise they way they do

[tnductai]

playstyle+ is the biggest cash grab feature, they dumb down the stats and give players massive boosts with these playstyle+, rare cards get 1, totw get 3, toty get 4 playstyle+... how obvious p2w that is

[BatteryBee]

If the FC25 has the same issues as FC24, but with a few cosmetic additions, then how is it rated a 4/5???

Why have a review scale if you aren't going to use it?

[D.Vizante]

Yup, exactly my thoughts. A lot of things were "fixed"

fuck animations, we want fun gameplay
