this tells me that they used sliding animations on purpose! they can remove all of them and the game will look completly different! such a shame :(

Yeah, just coming off the back of an hour's session on the TU4 Xbox SX version.

Ball physics seem much better and less "weirdly floaty" which was a big problem of mine...

...but I think that's just because the game speed has increased significantly (eliminating the slow-mo ball moments).

I play on "slow" with sprint speed turned down 20 points (same for pass speed, with acceleration down 1 point), and Jesus Christ on Rocket Skates it's fast. I can't imagine what "normal" speed must be like now.

Also, the AI on World Class now dribble around with the ball like Prime Brazil, it's insane. I've played EPL games against Nottingham Forest and Brighton, and their legs were moving at double-speed as they shuffled the ball around. There's less midfield than ever.

Oh, and keepers still dive alongside/away from the ball (and on 65 marking, defenders just watch):

A few have said there are now way more "ghost ball" instances than before, and I think that's right:



But the worst thing about this update IMO is that dribbling seems to have this "frameskipping" feel to it.

It's really hard to describe, and I don't think you'll be able to see it in this clip either, but it looks/feels like animations now just skip from one part to the next without blending between the two - like some kind of faster-than-light dribbling.

This is me just wobbling the left stick around - no button modifiers or anything (the AI now coasts around doing this from start to finish):

Jesus Christ almighty - how on earth this is acceptable?? And its on slow speed with added sliders??
Seriously - everyone who is involved in this game should be ashamed of themselves. This is beyond ridiculous.

Edit: I was hoping for more sliders, broken acceleration/stamina slider fix, fake sponsors on created team kits, offline separate gameplay, but I think I'll settle now for two additional options

Game Speed:
Normal/Slow/Very Slow/Very very Fucking Slow

That's on slow, with two "average" teams, with sprint speed on 30 and acceleration on 48. The AI's passes are so fast I think they're just spamming "driven passes" all the time now - either that or the slider is having no effect...

The frameskipping has been there since FIFA 21 though, it's nothing new, it's there to make the game feel more responsive to input, especially when online in expense of the rightful consequence of considering your player's inertia when dribbling.

It's really sad because like most fundamentals of football, it should be hard because the point of anything competitive worth competing in, is the risk reward factor with every decision especially little ones such as what direction you commit to when dribbling.

What's bullshit is that inertia affects defenders more than attackers on this game for some reason, which makes an already frustrating defending system because of the lack of AI assistance with team mates pressing and tracking back sensibly utterly disgustingly rage inducing.

Yes I have made four games.
On exibition mode, it feels like game speed was increase. There are more passes on the ground and not many air battle. I have made City vs Liverpool and

On career, it's the opposite. The game speed doesn't move and I saw more transitions between each animation.
On Quick match, like Chris, some animations are skipping. Hard to explain or show it on a clip but you clearly notice it.

I play career with Marseille so it's ok. I have made two nice matches versus Aston Villa on C3 and a really animated game versus Lyon, winning 1-0!

I need more games to make a better analyse of this patch.
 
Nah. Nah nah nah nah nah.

Goalkeeper passes the ball direct to the opponent, the ball is hit really hard so it's "miscontrolled", and the player "stretches" to get the "loose ball"...

Even Michael Jackson couldn't do that without falling on his face.



It's a mad game. Entirely messed up.

Anyone who's sick of the negativity, I'm back out again now, don't worry - see you for TU5...

EDIT: Offline players so desperately need to be able to opt out of the "live team's" updates. They significantly change the game and if you manage to get yourself a slider set you're enjoying, why should your game be ruined because the FUT whales want more laser-guidance and moonwalking? It's so unfair.

I actually gave this a whirl on the trial yesterday and admittedly really enjoyed it

BUT - I learned my lesson last year. Not a chance I’m dropping money on it while they have a live team constantly catering to the FUT weapons. It’s a different game every 5 mins….and not for the better.

YIKES

The issue i have with this mainy, and i dont play competitively online at all, is that imagine being one of these people spending their real money on a top defender to be cheated out of a goal by an average attacker because the ball can pass through their feet allowing space. Its criminal and it happens all the time

Its weird for me, in my career mode the gameplay is nice and slow with Saturators sliders, but in the world cup mode the gameplay is rapid, its the same when you play with the womens teams.

ive only played world cup and premier league exhibitions to be fair since update so ill try that. I cant get passed the ball travelling through body parts though it stands out a mile now and i saw it time and time again in my last premier league match
 
Sooo..... November.
Same as Fifa22. November was when it started to become unplayable. Must be Christmas, or something, when Live Tuning team just goes ballistic and destroys last good bits of the game.
So 70quid for 2 months worth of play (not that it played great at the start either). Thats how long it takes for average Evo gamer to get sick of it.
Every year now since F20.

How they are allowed to do that, how they are allowed to change the game so drastically and not get called out by it, is beyond me. They are basically selling product, that by November is not the product people bought at all. Its criminal.

People say that 1v1 is the worst thing that happened to Fifa. Id argue that its the Live Tuning Updates. You literally cant trust them that the product you are buying will not be completely different in a month time.
This is why I will not spend a cent for any Fifa ever again, until the gameplay is separate online and offline and/or until we are able to pick the version of the game we want to play offline (same as other EA games have).

thats why i stopped buying fifa after fifa 15. The first patch is always destroying the gameplay, which is really good, when they release the game. they do this for years. this and this momentum function, which exists in both games, killed my desire to play any new football games

Yes exactly. The speed on career mode is ok but in WC and Quick match the game speed is insane. I don't know why. Again another strange bug.

Without a "sim/offline gameplay producer" and a "fun/online gameplay producer", I don't see how I'll ever enjoy a football game again. And let's face it, there's more chance of Konami making a PES5 remake than that ever happening.

Through no fault of the players themselves, the people EA are going after (not just with FIFA but with every game they make) want something that is genuinely - without sarcasm - closer to Mario Strikers Charged than PES5.

There's crazy boosts (offline too, just look at the totally stupid "boost defending for 10 minutes" etc. Player Career boosts), braindead AI for that oh-so-important 1v1 "skill gap", skill-moves up and down the field, non-stop goals...

...and the "live team" just turn this up to MAX.

I can't help but imagine EAFC will go even further down this path. I will be so happy if I'm wrong, but they've given realistic-football fans less-than-nothing (in gameplay terms) for a very long time. Why change it now?

Reset your sliders. Speed problem gone with default settings. But I did not have time to try my slider settings. So i can't confirm speed problem still continues with re adjusted sliders.

Fifa 23 is the beginning of the end. EAFC is the end.
 
These are the FIFA "Gamechangers", or as they're called now, the Content Creators I think?

These are the guys EA listen to... "We have to stay positive to keep our views up". And nothing ever changes...

It makes me wonder if in some part they're leaving the gameplay alone for career mode players? Who am I kidding
