No matter what, I’ll be there

Something feels off.

That is to say,EA Sports FC25is a bit likeFC24.

Heres something cheery, though: PC performance is a lot better from the off this year.

A player kicks a football towards a goal, as a goalie attempts to save it.

But its not FC 25s fault if mcfc_haaland420 isnt interested in making use of the systems it’s added.

FC 25 formalises that, giving you more of a say over how and where those AI tendencies trigger.

Its handy and it’ll help you win more matches.

A regular view of football taking place on pitch.

But it does rather undermine the whole endeavour, doesnt it?

Once again, not FC25s fault.

Lets touch on Rush mode too, because FC25s obviously rather proud of it.

A look at some Ultimate Team player cards.

Heres whats nice about it: you feel the differences between players much more in a five-a-side setting.

Itll make some players happy.

This is housekeeping, really.

Feeding Osimhen a consumable from an Ultimate Team card interface.

A quick sweep and polish round UTs endless menus.

The experience is largely unchanged, except for the effects of the new tactics and Rush modes cameos.

Its the fact that the games playedslower.

A player raises their hands in disbelief.

That effect is lessened in FC25.

Or build up the play patiently, waiting for a midfielder to make the right run.

Its a bit like Serie A in that way then, is FC25.

A VAR decision plays out, as the goal is highlighted in blue, a goalie slides, and a player attempts to defend the ball.
