    Keita from the seasons megapack reward. I like the pack animation when you get an 83+.

    Played for a few hours tonight and that'll be it until next Friday.

    The menu stuff (while slow to navigate) is great and the possibilities could conjure up some cracking stuff. The gameplay however on first impressions is a bit shit. It's slow, forward runs are worse than ever and the ball bouncing back to your opponent when you tackle them is still widerife. I know it's only a beta and as I haven't experienced one before I don't know how significantly these things normally change, but it looks like they've taken FIFA19, slapped it about a bit, then served it up.

    Well, I enjoyed the placing games and went 3-1-1, the loss being the DC when I was winning. Game feels just as quick to me, @Yevrah, but only since getting an entirely 80+ team with chem styles - I always think the new ones are sluggish stepping down from a 195 end game team in the previous edition, so I’d suggest it might be that?

    I’ve gone 1-3 in Rivals, and it’s fucking horrible. Congested middle of the park, and constantly being robbed of the ball miliseconds after I make the tackle. The former seems no worse a scenario than in ‘19, but obviously I’d need to learn how to break it again, the latter seems worse, which is saying something. It genuinely feels like there’s little point winning the ball at times as they rob it back in a better position- it’s no surprise these cunts don’t bother tackling and simple cut passing lanes when they’re defending.

    Still not sold on keeping up with Fifa this year, I think it might be my year out.

    Fair point, it could well be.

    Seem to be running into errors every few minutes today.

    Packs, transfer market, SBCs, Objectives etc. etc.

    Finally got an 83+ (Payet) and the animation really is sweet.

    Hopefully I'll be able to see a walkout soon.

    They have detailed stats with those shit friendly game modes though.

    Tells me how many goals scored vs opponents, the breakdown of those goals (short range, long range, free kicks, penalties), shot conversion, goal times, where I scored the goal (I favour both the bottom corners based on 1 match), the attacking lanes you use, ground passing success rate, crossing, dribbling, standing tackles, sliding tackles, interceptions, blocked shots and discipline.

    Why they couldn't do that on regular UT and player stats I have no idea.

    That king of the hill mode is kind of dumb. Hold the ball in a box to get a multiplier than then score before it expires. Lad I was playing quit at 10-0 after 30 mins.

    There wasn't one for Chiellini or Saul for me (89 and 85 respectively and amongst top for their positions in their divisions) so I'm wondering if it's disabled for the Beta

    Currently rocking:
    GK Sirigu 82
    LB Gaya 79
    CB Chiellini 89
    CB Rugani 82
    RB Roberto 84
    LM Guedes 82
    CM Saul 85
    CM Partey 82
    RM Dembele 83
    SC Toko Embele 80
    SC Rodrigo 84

    The few hours on this have pretty much put the final nail in the coffin of 19 for me. I tried to load it up to do some objectives but lasted about 30 seconds

    Packed Umtiti which is by far my best pull on the beta thus far.

    That closed beta pack has ruined the pack only element of what I was doing somewhat, but will be useful to see what the game plays like with properly good players.

    Logged in to find 180k waiting for me. Not sure I'm a fan of that pack animation though.

    Also, if I had opened my pack I imagine it would look something like this one.




    Wink wink.

    It's horrific and somehow worse than it was in FIFA19. Tackling is just a complete crapshoot.

    I found myself disagreeing most times when Nep would complain but in this version it's mental.

    I also just went up for a header with an opponent from a goal kick and the ball came back as if it hit an invisible wall. FIFA PHYSICS!

    He'll be bang average as well.

    Seriously, if some of these 'icons' aren't far more affordable this year there really is no point.

    That's good news on Essien. If he isnt retired yet, then that gives hope that other old players like Zlatan, De Rossi, Iniesta, etc could all get icon cards

    I would like to see them make the lowest icons less rated and the prime/moments much better. Have they confirmed anything about moments yet?

    Moments haven't been confirmed but it looks likely:



    The only other thing it could be is a special milestones/objective card lower than the baby but I doubt it.

    They better not drop the moment's cards out of nowhere and we better get them as SBCs.

    I don't like how each version of a card, look the same when they are actually playing. Every version of Ian Wright will probably be bald or have hair. Which is annoying.

    It's hard to tell.

    I'd just recommend getting as many high level league silvers as you can early doors.

    Prem is going to be Sheff Utd. I dont think Norwich and Villa will be that profitable. Just need to eye them up once the squads are out.

    2. Teams with a low amount of defenders

    Volta seems ok. It's exactly the same as FIFA Street really.

    Always find the demos a bit weird as they play quite a lot differently to the full game.
