EA SPORTS FC 25

Yesterday and today i played 3 EFL Championship games and simulation mode is working again for me, game pace was even slower than pes 21.

Pes21 Is actually a lot frantic, despite don't have 1vs1, auto tackling, be extremly unnaturaly heavy, not responsive, with players that can barely dribble and do a decent first touch...
I can play a lot more direct, because midfield doesn't cover passing lanes and every ball lost is a dangerous counterattack.
Fc25 is way more demanding at build up, passing without think where to pass means losing ball. It is just way more demanding at defending (too much), and have some weird dribbling animations (l2+r2), It has a simplified first touch, but overall,as a SIM, it's on a totally different league. It do a lot things better than pes21 (build up, shooting, dribbling, players individuality,team playing style, collision/physicsal duel, numbers of animation, variety on the pitch...), that i can stay with its flaws...
 
I don't have a PS5, but it seems that EA FC 25 will be PS5 Pro Enhanced. So there's differences in grahics between PS5 and PC? I didn't know.

Please anyone help to fix this.
My xbox controller on pc has the directional (plus button) not working but the joy sticks and other buttons are working. Any fix for the directional buttons to work because am not use to using joy stick to move players.

Iss, pes player since 97.. have to say I agree with most of what you have said. And I am usually a massive massive FIFA hater in fact I am knowing to hate FIFA amongst my friends. However I am enjoying this new game and everything is quite fresh to me as this is the first FIFA I have bought in over 20 years

Don’t hate! Life is much more enjoyable when you just dislike! 😉

How did you like the real thing? I had it running on the side… while doing kitchen cleaning. Some nice situations from Barca. Lewa blossoming under Flick… 👌

I have some pretty busy weeks ahead of me so I’ll just wait a little with the FC25 purchase. But as I already deinstalled 24, I’m sure I’ll get one day this year. This also means mods will have advanced by the time I get going with 25.

It was a top performance both teams also were entertaining in the week too.. During the day worked the Brighton game, so that was also entertaining apart from the wolves games. Nice to see the Amex on fc25 in all it's glory 😂..

I'm on console so no mods for me but the standard game is good for me.

I am a Pes guy too,and my favorites football games are still Winning Eleven 10 liveware Evolution and Pes5. I switched to fifa from 09 to 17,i appreciated them, but no one of them reach the fun i have on PS2 Pes.
I hate fifa/FC since 1vs1 introduction, i bought fifa 23 and regret immediatly. I bought fc24 at 15 Euros and i hated it.
Fc25, with sim sliders, is a very good game. At first try i didn't appreciate It ,because i was not used at defending..once i get used, defending Is very satisfying,build up too.
To me is one of the,if not the best FIFA/FC ever.

I play tournaments Offline like champions league mode and Manager career mode and game pace in some games is slower sometimes and other times is faster. I dont think though that faster games are due to night time of the game cause i have significant fast games on day too while some other on night are slow.It must be random or its sthing related with some stadiums? i dont know , i havent figure this out, why its happening.Maybe there sthing about the "mechanics" of the game. In the past when it felt so fast to me i decrease player sprint speed by 1-2 but then again in the next games where felt like too slow i had to increase this again, so i came to the conclusion to leave the slider as is and just accept the fact that some games might be with some "extra speed" . I agree with others that is one of the best fifa's (if you combine unmatched graphics, great sound ,ultimate presentation & really improved gameplay) .
There are some negatives but you cant have a perfect game. I hope they will fix some bugs like quick tacticks not working in random mathes in tournament modes, single player camera refers to multiplayer camera in tournament modes ,things like that
 
In my opinion this year we should give up with custom sliders and stuck with sim mode.
Even if custom sliders allow us to make the game slower,this doesn't mean its better.
 
It’s interesting that even the FUT crowd are finding the shiny new roles restrictive and illogical. Players will start making a penetrative run but then stop because their role profile doesn’t allow them to as it’s outside of the role remit. It’s definitely another backwards step in offensive AI.

They should have kept the previous system and just added half winger and false back to central midfielder and full back individual instructions. Every other formation that FC IQ brings was already possible with the previous system.

Let's hope more and more are annoyed by this terrible feature. It's by far the worst part of FC25, and truly handicaps all the good that is done in the improved gameplay, custom sliders, custom/preset CPU behaviors.

Like @Anth James said earlier, there's no proof that Simulation mode is different than the same values in Custom. I would have much preferred they didn't even show the slider values once you switched to Simulation mode so it wouldn't be a question.
 
Saw EA are offering a gameplay survey to players to offer feedback on Twitter.

As usual, most of the replies are from FUT Streamers who have no idea what they're talking about. They want defending nerfed (the AI stand off and run away from you already because of 1v1) they want the passing from FC24 back (which was horrible, floaty and totally unreliable) oh and of course they want the game to be faster.

Just please make a separate bullshit game for the online crowd. This is the best game since the move to current gen and I can already forsee that they're gonna patch the game into unrecognisable oblivion compared to the launch version.
 
I have taken the plunge and bought fc 25 (via epic store with 2 hour refund option!)

I will report back soon and add to others very helpful feedback here. As someone on the fence, hopefully it will help those who remain on it too.

I'll particularly look to see how I feel about sim mode. Sometimes playing a game through updates can be mind bending as you think something has changed, only to realise after a few hours play that it had never changed at all. Hopefully the time away will give me a true insight, from my perspective at least, into how the game plays in sim mode after updates.

It would be great to see video vanilla EA FC 25 vs EA FC 25 after update so everyone can judge themselves.

There's some tests I've done in the gameplay files that make it pretty conclusive to me that the slider values they say are changed, are actually being changed in Simulation mode and it's not just 'representative' of something bigger. That doesn't mean there definitively mean there isn't something else happening, but as you, I remain highly skeptical that there is.
