An Autopsy of FIFA 20. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Dear EA,

I will say what I am going to say at the end straight off the bat.

Please surrender your licenses so someone else can have a go at making a proper football game. I am sure you guys have made enough money by literally robbing us financially but most importantly emotionally.

Now I am not going to take the thing to Kurt's level and get into Canadians and their football knowledge sort of argument. The reason why this game is terrible is not a nationality issue...

Let me break it down:


1- Game in General


The Good:
  • Great UX design
  • Great Content

The Bad:
  • Bad programming
  • Lack of understanding of Football in general
  • Greed. Most importantly greed and all the nonsense which comes with it...


2- GamePlay on the field


The Good:
  • Great artwork (Textures, models, attention to detail)

The Bad:
  • Terrible servers
  • Glitchy passing and shooting and player animations
  • Stats that are not true to output. 99 Pace players getting caught by 65 pace bronze players s an example...


3- GamePlay off the field


The Good:
  • Menu designs
  • SBC, Special Players and content in general

The Bad:
  • Market Place

Now I really want to elaborate on this one because it really explains the main reason why this game is in its current state.

EA why on earth would someone not be able to custom list their items as fast as they want without getting banned or at least temp banned?

I understand with the bidding to an extent because you are trying to stop bots auto bidding and all. still not a good enough excuse. It is a market place and one should be able to bid as rapid as they want as long as they are paying the coin.

BUT

When it comes to listing, relisting players

YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE A LEG TO STAND ON!!!

other than

YOU DON'T WANT US TO GET AHEAD OF THE GAME AND DEPEND ON BUYING YOUR PACKS

I know I said "without getting angry" in the title but to be honest I have been more HONEST than you guys

No, I don't want to auto list my rare gold player items at 650-10000. I bought 50 of the guy for 750 and I want to list him at 900-1000 and list one every 10-15 seconds so they don't all expire at the same time.

and you guys temp ban us for hours and make us to captcha's for this 10 times a day?

I hope you see my point. I am listing my players. They are MINE. and no I don't want to give them away for less than I bought!


MY VERDICT


EA has managed to create a toxic community (including my self at times).

The main driver behind this is financial.

They are trying to frustrate people who are overly invested in the game emotionally and financially which leads to more FIFA point sales.

It is really sad to see people who are just trying to have some fun turn into monsters playing online an online game

The Good:
  • Design work
  • Content

The Bad:
  • Everything else. Especially VOLDEMOR... shhhhh

The Ugly:
  • EA SPORTS


THE END


Please surrender your licenses
