One also has to be careful in 1v1 situations as they are now near impossible with nimble attackers who are seemingly untouchable this year.įinishing is also harder, with the Finesse Shots making a comeback as well. Standing tackles are more complicated due to the improved ball control and pace boosts, and although the overall shape of your defense will be maintained, attackers will still find and attack the gaps left open ruthlessly and relentlessly. Speaking of defensive lines, defending is a lot harder in FIFA 22. While EA hasn’t killed all the creativity, as long passes have made a comeback, chipped-through balls seem to be the go-to option when trying to get behind an opponent’s defensive line. This has forced players to be more cautious this year, effectively slowing down build-up play. Although there has been a re-introduction of ping pong passing, Grounded-through balls and midfield splitting passes between the lines are now less easy to execute. It has, however, generally been made more balanced this year, thereby encouraging players to experiment with a lot more players that are available in FIFA 22 as opposed to just the usual quick ones. Although it can still come in handy, while pouncing on a loose ball, for example, or during a breakaway. However, with every bad comes the good, as despite my pessimistic point of view the gameplay has still been made enjoyable for current-gen players, making FIFA 22 a justifiable purchase and enabling EA to mask their mediocrity for yet another year.ĮA’s new installment has been slowed down this year, as previous overly important attributes like pace have been made near redundant.
FIFA 22 NEXT GENERATION PLAYERS UPDATE
Unfortunately, this exclusivity has taken a whole chunk of the new release’s value for current-gen gamers, making the game feel somewhat like a winter update for FIFA 21. These all add to the experience of the new game engine, which has been made exclusive to the next-gen consoles. These take the form of short cut scenes like Steve Bruce proving that age truly is just a number by outpacing the entire Newcastle side while celebrating a mediocre last-minute winning goal from fan-favorite Miguel Almiron, or Jurgen brandishing his trademark fist bumps after a win at Anfield. A better cinematic experience is offered to the next-gen gamers as well. The next-gen version is made a lot smoother, more immersive, and a lot more realistic as over 4,000 new animations have been added from real-life matches. Not only do they have to deal with the jealousy of those with the PS5, but they now also miss out on the optimal FIFA 22 experience. This year, the question has been mainly targeted towards players still stuck in the current generation. Whether or not to be excited for the next installment remains the ultimate question for a FIFA fan. I’ve played every installment of the game since FIFA 12 along with my brother who I have to thank for helping out with this overly detailed review. I’d like to start this by admitting that I’m a closeted fan of the FIFA series.
