I expected FIFA20 to be another trash FIFA like it has been from 17 onwards but FIFA20 actually has a skill-gap, there's a few issues in the game with player switching being a bit off, & dribbling not being responsive enough but overall it's a decent game.

If anyone is up for some CO-OP on Xbox One i'm so up for it. B)

    E.A better not change the defending and make it assisted again to cater to the noobs.


    I see some people saying dribbling is good but for me it's not, players turn so slow, Yes Messi, Neymer etc are decent at dribbling but other players in general with left stick dribbling needs to be more responsive with people still using CONTAIN which should be REMOVED from the game as it mirrors your dribbling.

    Player switching at times is delayed I think that needs tweaking & the rebounds off the goalkeeper are a bit annoying but other than that I like the game.

    Yeah i love the defending. I don't rely on dribblind that much anyway so it doesn't bother be its more of an advantage for me.

    Switching though. It just doesn't work as advertised, no matter which option you pick it feels kinda random an yes definitely weird in terms of delay.

    Rebounds also havent been a problem for me surprisingly

    Fair enough if you just pass it about finding gaps in your opponents defence however dribbling is still too clunky for me just stick dribbling in general I wish it was better but we'll see if E.A do anything.

    I don't have many issues withthe game like I said just a few, player switching is the biggest one though & I have noticed a slight delay when shooting before also.

    i actually like using contain combined with the left analog stick to "steer" my player's body positioning the right way. if i push my left analog in the wrong direction while containing my opponent can blow by me almost every time. it still takes a form of skill to contain properly. for instance, when a player is on the right, outside the box on offense, and im using contain on defense, if they try to cut inside and im pushing my left analog toward the end line, they do so with ease. however, if im pushing my left analog away from the end line, i prevent them from cutting in and they have no choice but to cross it in or pass it back up the field. im sure you know all of this about contain defense, but im just trying to explain to you how "i" use it.

    Fair play for using contain well but my issue with it is with holding contain sometimes it can mirror your opponents dribbling and turning and be very passive with it, It doesn't belong in FIFA but least E.A reduced the contain button massively this is why I want dribbling to be more responsive, (players turn quicker in general) to counteract the people who just abuse contain players like Neymar, Hazard, Messi etc should be able to get by players more often i've even heard Pro players mention this also on stream with stick dribbling! but it is what it is I guess there's much bigger issues than this though!.

    The player switching thing is a bigger issue & i've noticed delay whilst playing Online Seasons at times and funnily enough i've turned off my Timed Finishing (another dumb feature) by E.A and i'm scoring goals without it easily how it should be really, the skill is breaking down your opponents defence not pressing a button twice.

    It's nice that fast players like M'bappe don't randomly get caught up from slower defenders like Chiellini for example! finally pace is how it should be.

    I do like this game it does have big potential, even with the few issues with the game I still like it overall.. just gotta hope E.A don't undo it with a gameplay update soon.

    FIFA20 is a decent FIFA? It's miles better than 19 which was the worst FIFA ever nothing good about the gameplay.

    Have you played much of FIFA20?

    It's not perfect but I find it decent, hopefully with an update they don't change the defending, and dribbling, player switching are improved.

    as soon as fifa 21 is almost finished, an update will destroy fifa20 to make you pay for this horrible game. I`m sick of their way of developing this game. So... you pay it and play it... I`m done throwing money on the window

    The logic behind your sentence is highly questionable but hey, you do you.

    I only play CO-OP, Online Seasons & Pro Clubs wouldn't put a money into FUT.. there's always going to be a degree of P2W involved.. if you don't put your own money into it then you put yourself at a disadvantage to other players, I play Online Seasons because i'd rather play with real life teams & not with players with 99 pace & hunter cards applied for them etc.

    Yes, for you it can be questionable.... but other players know what I`m talking about.

    i noticed so far that the passing seems to be really off. ill aim directly at one player and many times they pass to a different player.

    Yeah I've noticed this too, Your player is standing 3 yards a way.. a simple pass to him and it will get intercepted by the AI I swear, I know defending is more manual in general but I'm still seeing far too many Auto blocks now or Auto interceptions, I still like this FIFA compared with the past 3 FIFA'S even though FIFA20 still has some issues but Passing does seem off at times it also doesn't go the direction you pass it will go wayward at times.

    E.A do take far too long to fix stuff I agree but what I would say is FIFA20 for me is miles better than the **** show which was FIFA19, I hated 18 & 17 too games weren't good but 20 even with the issues has potential, we'll see what happens with the next couple of updates.

    FIFA 20 actually has a "decent" skill gap, theres not much exploits to abuse yet, AI defending got nerfed and with that smart build up like playing originally football is rewarded since many years ago, pace is back but not as OP like it was in fifa 18 which is very good and ofc finishing finally seems working good...

    But another year and same ❤️❤️❤️❤️... xscriptingx xmomentumx that ❤️❤️❤️❤️ that can make a game where ur leading 3-0 owning ur opponent bc ur clearly better than him and all of sudden is 3-3 with absolutely ridiculous goals making u run back for that win at 70th min lol

    The game is playable and enjoyable yes, but im almost sure patches will come and will reduce skill gap to none, at the moment noobs ( which always are about 80% of playerbase ) are finding hard to win like headless chickens in previous fifas and that will depresse them into not giving money for fifa points

    Enjoy while it last, my 2 cents

    20 is the best FIFA since 16.. I hated the gameplay from 17 onwards but like you say there is a skill-gap with 20 as defending is more manual however, if it was me I would still make it even more manual there's still auto-blocks & interceptions etc but with passing being harder this year it requires skill, you get punished for aimlessly passing.

    I hope the future patches don't ruin the game, I hope they don't touch defending, i've been playing Online Seasons and I do notice input delay at times even when passing, and when you shoot sometimes they do this stupid run-up to the ball animation.. I feel like the game needs to be more responsive & obviously dribbling with the left stick needs to feel quicker but overall I like the game but there are a few issues with it, least goalkeeper rebounds are getting fixed though.

    @TacticalTugTeam : I just played 20... sorry mate but passing wherever AI wants it`s another trick developed by EA to replace the magical "momentum" and that think that we are not allowed to speak off, but we all know it exists. Balancing a game with this kind of tricks is what make FIFA unplayable ... I like most of the EA games, but this game seems to be developed by some Neymar, Ronaldo and.... newly Liverpool lovers. The Demo is enough for me. I wont buy it till I see that they respect players. When you are better than the opponent... you win. Simple as that. When the opponent has 8 games played and you were in Div1 on each edition and his players are running like they are on drugs... and you barely keep the pace... this is not what I call fair.
    Sorry, I`ll try PES

    There's an update coming mate.. FIFA20 is not perfect it has issues with player switching, & yeah passing is inconsistent & AI is still there but hopefully this patch improves the game!

    It could be that the update will temporary solve the passing issue. But as I already feel in 19 ... when the end of one version is near.... the way they force you to get rid of the game... is pathetic. As usually FIFA developers are.
