 FIFA 21 review

This time of every year was like a holiday for football fans in the world who were electronic game players. Why not, as it is the time when sports video games are released in general. For me, I was desperately waiting for this time of year to the next just to get the new part of FIFA series and embark on an annual adventure full of enthusiasm and excitement as you used to.

The FIFA series, which reached its peak in 2008 on home platforms, dominated and still dominates football games, especially in the period between 2011 and 2016, until disaster struck the series. EA destroyed everything when it decided to use the Frostbite engine in its development, this engine In turn, it did not contribute to killing the enjoyment of the gameplay and details in FIFA only, but in all other EA Sports sports games. Add to that the fact that the game turned into Pay 2 Win, especially in the most famous Ultimate Team mode, and the lack of the principle of equal opportunities, and many other things that took the series to the abyss. .

This trend was helped by the rush of the gamer community to buy the game annually, despite its exaggerated pricing for an annual game that does not offer many real changes.

This time of year has turned from “Eid” to “Feast.” I mean that literally. I can’t wait anymore like before, especially since the FIFA 17 version. We have been getting an annual update in the form of a full game at the price of a full game as well. This year is no different. A lot, and it has gotten worse unfortunately. Let's get to know the details of that. This is our review of the game FIFA 21.

FIFA 21 gameplay

In annual games, I believe that the changes are minor, but at least there is a change. In FIFA 21, I cannot distinguish a significant difference between the playing style of the previous version and this version. This version is exaggeratedly close to last year’s version in terms of playing style. The speed of play is a little slower, and some new skills have been added as is usual every year.

In fact, everything EA has done in this year's version are just minor updates to the gameplay that can be changed in a free update or patch for the game and not the value of a full game. This is unbelievable and unacceptable. In addition, this year EA did not release A demo version of the game for the first time in the series' history, "almost".

If we talk more deeply about the style of play, not everything is bad here. The new Agile Dribbling system for players made me feel some lightness in the movement of the players and in delivering and receiving the ball, and it actually greatly improved the player’s response to your commands, but it is also not a change that can be said to be worth issuing. A full version is for him, but this could also have been modified in last year's version through updates.

Shots at the near post are still the “easiest” way to score in the net, or as the game community knows by the term “Near Post OP”, and the scoring methods also usually do not differ from previous versions. You will not find it difficult to score goals in the way you preferred in the previous part.

Passing is a little better than the previous part, especially the through passes and the longitudinal passes, as they create good opportunities and variety in your attacking style, especially since the defense in this year’s edition is a little more “difficult” than last year’s edition, which was also difficult, and thus the chances of attacking and scoring goals in this year. The portion is much larger, and this means that we will see most of the matches ending with big goals, so it is possible to say that the one who attacks better and masters the methods of attack will have better chances of winning than the one who masters the defense.

In general, the gameplay in FIFA 21 is very close to the previous part and exaggerated. The developer did not make any significant effort here to improve the problems that existed in the previous part or even develop them.

FIFA 21 modes and content, is there anything new?

Ultimate Team mode

I will start by talking about the largest and most famous mode in the game, which is the Ultimate Team mode, which always gets attention and the largest amount of changes, and apart from the mode officially turning into Pay 2 Win due to the digital microtransactions present in it in a “raw” manner, which I discussed in a previous article, But this year, the mode came with a feature that players had been waiting for and had in fact been asking for for a while, namely Co-Op seasons.

The cooperative seasons in Ultimate mode were the most fun thing that EA has added to the mode in years. You will have a lot of fun when you play with your friend against two as well and work to raise the skill rate together and rise to the higher ranks. Unfortunately, despite the fun of the mode, it did not It reaches the ceiling of my expectations, which is something I am used to from EA, as the company does not give out all the ideas at once to save them for next year's version.

I was hoping that there would be more customization for teams, where you could create a combined squad from your squad and your friend's squad and then enter the matches. Instead, the company made it that simple. Whoever sends the invitation will be the owner of the team that will participate, and therefore there is not a lot of customization. Here, you are forced to play with your friend's formation, but that's okay, that may change next year.

The frustrating thing is that the competitor, PES, implements something similar to this in the My Club mode, where when you enter with your friend in cooperative seasons, a formation is created that combines the best elements in your team with the best elements in your friend’s team, which is actually something I hope to implement in the future with this mode.

Modifying and customizing your “playing field” was a wonderful addition to this part, and gave a kind of variety. The most notable thing is that there is also a progression system and rewards for that, as you do not start with the best tools and settings to customize the playing field, but there is a system for unlocking those elements and starting to use them, with time and progress. In playing and raising the level, you will be able to develop the stadium greatly, starting from setting songs and chants for the fans, the music that plays when goals are scored, as well as fireworks behind the goal, and even controlling the colors of the field lines and nets and choosing, of course, a name for the stadium.

Other than that, there are no major changes to the game. As of the time of the appearance of this review, the FUT Champions competitions have not yet begun, and therefore we cannot judge it in advance, even if I know that it has not received any changes. The Rivals mode has not received radical changes either, except In the number of matches, as there are now a certain number of matches that you can play and are counted in the points of the week, after that you will be able to play naturally but without an increase in your Skill points until the start of the competitions of the following week (i.e. after the weekly prizes), which is an advantage. I found it to be a good attempt to bring levels closer between players and not create such a large gap.

"Acceptable" changes to Career Mode!

As for Career Mode, it has received some changes related to developing players, training, and changing their positions through developing training plans. This means that finally you can control changing players’ positions in the mode through their training features, although this is not a big advantage in reality. Indeed, you can play with any player in any position in the career mode because there is no “chemistry.” Therefore, if you see that Ronaldo can play as a defender and you put him as such, you will not have a problem.

But the idea here in this new system is to apply that “realistically” in the game, meaning that if you really want Ronaldo to be a defender, you will train him on this basis. It will take a long time to be honest, but in the end Ronaldo will increase in defense statistics, which will... It makes him a defender, a quality that may be more effective than the young players you sign from the academy.

The transfer and player purchasing system has also been modified to make it more realistic, and a clause and the right to purchase after loan have also been added, which is one of the things I personally liked.

Also, personally, I am one of those who spend a lot of time in the Career mode. I noticed that the problem that existed the previous year has also been solved, which is the “difficulty” problem, where the artificial intelligence of the AI is superior on the “Ultiamte” difficulty, while the game is much easier on the “Ultiamte” difficulty. “Legendary” is the least straightforward, and it is a problem that actually kills the fun of the mode, even if it has an “external” solution by adjusting the sliders for the AI power to the ultimate difficulty.

In this part, the AI is more daring on the Legendary difficulty and is no longer as easy as before, as you will find that they use skills against you, especially in the attacking third, which I liked.

The latest addition to the mode is the ability for a Sim to play the match, watch it, then enter the middle of it to execute a free kick, attack, or penalty kick, and then return again to the viewing seat, which is a wonderful feature, even if it lacks a bit of realism.

Volta mode is getting what it should have gotten since its launch!

The Volta mode got what it should have gotten since its launch the previous year, but the developer’s policy, as I mentioned, is that you will not get everything the first time. Finally, you can enter and compete with your friends in the mode via the network.

But unfortunately, it seems that the mode will be neglected again this year. The popularity of the mode last year was very low. I do not remember entering and playing in the mode at all except at the beginning of the game, and then abandoning it forever. This matter will continue, I believe, in this year’s version because the mode is boring. Something in the style of play and also in the goal in the end.

There is nothing new in the Pro Clubs mode.

As for the Pro Clubs mode, it did not get anything new, and you will laugh if you know that the only difference is just an additional “Facial Hair”, which is a heavy “chin” that was not present in the previous version. There is not much reality in the Customize settings for your player. Or your team, they remain things that have been around since FIFA 17 with the sterile Skill Point system for player development and the kit making system that lacks creativity.

It is a shame that EA neglected this promising mode for years and years, despite the non-stop demands of fans of the mode. The mode also lacks the cinematic clips that distinguish the game in other modes. Even the celebrations after scoring goals do not contain those clips, as the overhead camera remains at the forefront of the scene throughout. The events of the match are actually boring.

[quote “The FIFA game is always famous for the rights to clubs and leagues, which is a feature that greatly surpasses the PES game, but this year is one of the few seasons in which the company was not able to obtain more rights, and even lost some rights, such as the rights of the Roma Club, for example.” For example, you will not find a licensed game in the game, like Juventus also, which lost its rights last year to Konami. On the other hand, the game still maintains a fair number of licensed leagues and tournaments, but it seems that this version is poor in new changes in everything, even in terms of rights and licensing of leagues. And new stadiums"]

Graphics in FIFA 21 and the problem with the Frostbite engine!

In terms of graphics, there is “literally” no change in marketing matters for the new generation versions of the game, which will be released later on PS5 and Xbox Series 1% effort in giving any touch on fees this year.

Even in some versions that were similar in graphics, the developer was working on giving the version a “color” as a filter to show the game in a new way. This did not happen here. You cannot differentiate last year’s version from the 21st version in any way.

I have a lot of problems with the Frostbite game engine that has been used since the 2017 version. I do not find that this engine is suitable for a sports game, especially a football game. There is a lot of “heaviness” when compared to the Ignite engine used in versions of FIFA 15 and FIFA 16.

I do not think that the players’ bodies appear in the “realistic” or optimal way that they should appear. The models used in the engine, I think, were designed more for war games and seem inappropriate for a sports game. If you want to understand my meaning more clearly, see the sizes of the players in the Volta mode. Which looks “bigger” than it is supposed to be.

The engine also does not deal “intelligently” when there is a struggle over the ball. You may find the player in some neighborhoods stumbling upon a player in front of him instead of trying to avoid him. This problem has been clear since the engine began being used in the game. In fact, I do not know what the company’s insistence on the engine is, even with The new generation that will come with the same engine!

The game still suffers from the problem of most sports games, which is that there is a clear disparity between the graphics of the game during play, and the graphics in the clips and scenes when the camera gets close to the players, which are much better.

FIFA Price FIFA 21 - Conclusion

The FIFA 21 game is the most identical version in terms of everything from its predecessor in the history of the series. All the changes that occurred in this version (if it is correct to call them changes in fact) could have been added in a free update or patch for the previous version. It is a shame that this game is released “annually” at a price of $60 with this amount of paid digital transactions in the Ultimate Team mode, which turned the mode into “pay to win,” from which the company reaps more profits than the profits of the game itself.

It was disappointing not to get a new engine, even with the new generation versions that will be released later, which I do not expect will differ much from the current version. Perhaps the frame rate will increase only with some minor graphical improvements that you will most likely not notice, which are originally available in versions. The personal computer has been around for years, and it was also a bad idea to include the PC versions this year as an old generation version.

I do not blame the company here as much as I blame the player community for continuing to push the game forward by purchasing the game on an annual basis and at this price, which I do not think it is worth at all. If you want an opinion, convert the game to a game that is released every three years with a seasonal update for kits, licenses, and all that. Things at $20 would be much better for the future of the series, in order to focus on gameplay problems and try to solve them through monthly or seasonal updates like other games that have succeeded in this way do.

The good aspect of this year's version, in addition to the very "minor" gameplay improvements, is the cooperative mode in Ultimate Team, which many have requested to be added for years. It finally exists, even if it lacks creativity in creating plans and formations, as well as customizing your own "field" with a progression system that rewards you as much as possible. Wonderful, in addition to the modifications made to the Career mode that will satisfy fans of the mode.

In the end, it cannot be denied that the game is successful in what it offers, especially since there is no competitor and that it is on paper the best football simulation experience currently available. The success of FIFA 21 will also be inevitable given the state of addiction that the game causes for its fans and sports fans in general.
