Still no new patch impressions? Come on guys...!
Only played a few games, but since the gameplay update it is now harder to defend as the computer does this weird thing kind of like blocking on FIFA 17 where they just waltz through your defence and pass it to a spare man for an easy tap in.
Have not noticed at all the difference in passing it is still incredibly scripted and I still feel I have very little control where my pass is going to go.. No matter how long you hold the button it just passes wherever, and the game still can't do the simplest of passing over 3/4 yards.
Player movement is still terrible, midfielders don't really make forward runs and stand like statues most of the time.. Full backs despite being on always overlap stop running when you want to pass to them and stroll back to a defensive position.
They still haven't fixed long range finesse shots, they still fly into the top corner on nearly every attempt.
I also noticed since the patch that the CPU now follows the man, so you can now run through the team and score.
For an example of this see Clyne goal @10.20 - I have now scored this goal 5 times in 3 matches.
I am very tempted to go back now to either FIFA 17 or FIFA 16, I am just not finding FIFA 18 any fun, there are way too many issues - Mainly with the defending and the inability of players to make 4/5 yard passes - I play on Semi, as don't like full auto as you can just ping pong your way to score and takes any sort of challenge out the game.
Football Manager is also out now, so FIFA could be benched completely this year.
P.S.
I wouldn't take my review too seriously, as I am just someone who doesn't enjoy the game this year, so might want to wait till someone who has some positives to say, give their opinion.
Plus yesterday I had 1Gbit internet installed so need to spend some time playing with that, I'm sure you understand
