EA SPORTS FC 24

Playing the PS4 version of FC24 to see how it compares to the PS5 version gameplay-wise. First thing I notice, it has the match intros still. So a vast improvement.

Is it better? Yes. Obviously not to everyone's taste, as it's still Frostbite. But it feels less 'nonsense' than PS5, and I like the PS5 version. But all the 'bells and whistles' of the PS4 Fifa games are there. As well as the face scans seemingly being up-to-date as well. I mean, it even has the Playstyles thing in it. I'm very tempted to just go for the PS4 version of FC25 when it's released tbh

Whats the difference graphics wise? Ive still not actually played a PS5. Is it a big difference?

Marginally better. I'd argue that the PS5 version isn't worth the extra that it costs over the PS4 version.

I've attached some images to show the differences

I also got it in a sale a month or two ago and have played a few seasons in Career Mode now and it's... okay. A nice 6/10 change from the norm. Maybe 4 solid years of PES 2021 have whetted my appetite but it's nice to play a different football game.

I like it more out of the box than with any slider set I've tried so far.

I can already feel the wheels coming off though. And one of the annoying things is a weird addition to the game (don't remember it from my last FIFA, FIFA22, at least): quite often when you or the AI score, there's this short cut scene of the scorer rushing to retrieve the ball from the net to get the game restarted. The problem is that it never happens only when it should, i.e. only when the team that's scored is still losing and needs to hurry things along. It happens even if all you or the other team has done is equalise, regardless of the teams' relative strengths or need for 3 points etc.

And then there's the glimpse of a scoreboard in some stadia that says 'HOME 0 VISITOR 1'. Are there any European stadia that use that convention? Any League 2 grounds? Not as bad an immersion-breaking North Americanism as the likes of 'the Bolton Wanderers' from a few FIFAs ago, but still something that annoys me.

The sad thing is, the Xbox One version isn't actually half bad at all now it's had 9 months of patches. The Series X one though just loses the plot instantly for me.
 
If EA really wanted too (which they don't at present) they could make the Career mode a very deep and immersive experience. They have just released their Deep Dive for EA Colleage Football, the game is built around the offline career mode and have released an 80 page deep dive on how it will work, it sounds amazing:

EA does not want or need to create a football game with a good career mode and realistic gameplay. What is currently available sells well and brings them huge profits. Besides, soccer is not even in the top 5 most popular sports in America, which is why they are improving e.g. colleage football, not FC.

The sliding is less obvious but still not great, the animations just seem smoother and the players more responsive without looking inhumanly so.
 
Isn't it more "rigid" since Hypermotion or whatever isn't in last gen? I only use rigid because players body/legs wont do any and everything to reach the ball, really considering getting old gen next season for clubs.
 
Again, I feel like they killed all fun in this game towards the end of its life with updates... Not so fun as it was few updates ago. It wasn't perfect of course, but now it's even worse.

Same for me. I played 2 campaigns since the EURO dlc came out, but it was absolute crap. I don't know which update it was exactly but EA really screwed it up once again.
I did enjoy the game before with the OS sliders but now it is unplayable. Lightspeed, janky animations, the whole typical fifa stuff. I tried some sliders from a youtuber called Cookieclicker (or something like that) who was recommended in the OS forum. First half of the first match was not perfect but really likable, 0:0, slow pace, 0,2 vs 0,7 xG. Second half was a total shitfest, the game ended 4:4. There are simply no sliders that can save it..
 
I just downloaded eafc to try on the PlayStation store cuz it was on sale really cheap. I was editing some player ratings before starting a season but I was wondering if the was a site like pes has where you can see the players ratings projected forward, for example what a guy rated 75 would look like as an 80

When you're looking at players on sofifa.com, you can load their stats into the calculator page to see how their calculated overall values change when you make changes to the individual stats. It's the other way around, but it's better than nothing at least.

I think there is a tool on sofifa, its been a few years and I forgot about that site. THANKS!

Has anyone in this great community transferred football manager stats to eafc and did it make any difference to gameplay? I remember a guy doing it on pes 6 and the change in gameplay was crazy. So realistic.
 
Guys, today i play first time fc24. Why that game looks nice on YT gameplay but on my pc looks worse than Fifa 16?? I set everything on ultra , 1440p,but game looks blurry and lack of sharpen. Especially replays looks like in 720p . Second thing is bad stuterring and fps drops especially in cutscenes and replays

You seem to have accidentally manifested some new career mode features

They'll be some more constructive answers to your questions but essentially it's because EAFC24 is crap and FIFA 16 is a masterpiece.
 
Is there any patch that allows South American qualifiers and the original World Cup format in career mode?
 
In our FUMA Clubs Discord we've been doing 11v11 with every player using GK profile. This translates to about a 35 ovr for each player. Here are some goals from these matches:

@JUNELELE amazing goals, as always. I think this is the solution for FIFA, low ovr reduces skatiness and gives a better "tempo" with more real movements and game speed. Much better than playing with "super heroes". Keep it up mate :WORSHIP:

thanks!

the default gameplay max level is like 90 ovr. we tried 80 ish overalls but some people also didnt like that. so currently we're trying gk profiles for everyone

some guys upload full matches if you want to watch the full tempo of matches. here are a couple of randomly selected videos. 11v11: Full manual GKs vs full manual GKs

Ohhhh. I love Pro Clubs mode, but hate EAFC. I guess this is the solution I've been looking for. As the mode best replicates the teamwork and connection of real football, I find it more fun and satisfying. Had such fun being in a club almost daily from like FIFA 08-16/17.

yeah personally i barely touch 1v1 anymore, since fifa 16 basically. pro clubs is the saving grace of this game for me

dm me if you want a link to the discord. there's about 300 players on there, like 8 or so teams with 15ish person squads. the only requirement is that you must play on full manual controls
