After the (really deserved) Hochlobungen the slightly older FIFA games, we come now to the actual topic of this Rezensioon:
FIFA 14 ....
With this game, EA Sports has probably finally sold his regulars and deterred potential customers.
One of the most important and etscheidendsten properties of Fifa was the authenticity and closeness to reality that raised the pulse many footballers' hearts racing (mind you, compared to other sports simulations like PES or Football Generation etc. ... Of course Fifa was never like the real football games, as could it? But it was nevertheless a good substitute).
However, Fifa 14 is the exact opposite of everything that made its predecessors so special. It is in any game situation even remotely realistic or believable.
Previous speakers or Vorrezensenten have most if not all of the points already mentioned, so I will deal with only still on the main "mistake" in Fifa 14 below:
- AI:
The AI in Fifa 14, and it must be said simply times in no uncertain terms, is probably the most stupid, primitive and unrealistic ever owned a video game. I can only agree with the many reviews before me and say that the players "move" on the bursts like a crazed bunch of chickens.
Forward run constantly for no reason on the sidelines, or run so stupid in front of their players back and forth to block own shots while mostly still standing on the sidelines that possession to the opponent instead of a goal for the player. Eeigene defenders seem to have never learned their running paths and the offside rule and between goalkeeper and defenders prevails no agreement, so that they without any opponent is near to each other ramming and umrempeln and an opponent in complete privacy to run to the ball and this can slide into the goal.
Furthermore, the AI of the goalkeeper is so primitive that it can not distinguish whether on a long or unlucky ball of the opponent, a opponent the ball passes behind or not. In most cases, the goalkeeper does the exact opposite of that is exactly what would not even make in reality the goalkeeper a Kreisliga team:
If far and wide is no opponent in sight and he had all the time in the world, he sprints from his chest, as if behind him a pack of wolves lurking and clears the ball with all his might into touch. However, when the opposite is true, that when a striker also sprints for the ball, then you will be completely taken by surprise as a player, because often the goalkeeper is selected and you actually might have expected that the goalkeeper would clear the ball in this situation. The result: Most a very annoying goal for the opponents.
They were now only the grossest examples by no means realistic AI of this game.
- Diverse features such as "Precision Movement", "Team Intelligence" or "Absolute authenticity":
That EA Sports Fifa 14 in connection with wirlich used these terms is an absolute impudence!
The "Movement" of the players, beginning with the commencement of unrealistic ball carrier in comparison to the Defenders is the biggest joke of the century. Each player who has played just once for 5 minutes a real football game, know that even if one (n) has the ball at his feet, one lot, may be much faster still, as the defender. In Fifa 14 However, the reality seems to be different:
No matter which players are involved in the situation, the defender is both faster than the strikers and more (ie it can relegate it at will and take him the ball without challenge from the foot). In 95% of cases And of course, all goes well, if the striker Theo Walcott (fastest player of the game) and the defender Peer Mertesacker (34 of 100 possible points in attribute Sprint Speed -> one of the slowest center-back) is.
Exactly those things are just, make Fifa 14 at a very unrealistic and implausible game.
As mentioned above, these are only a few properties (things like heading ability of the striker, stupid comments of the commentators or various bugs and game errors I will not accurately describe in our common interest) of Fifa 14, which should actually be prohibitive for any player.
But in order not to lose now bears solely negative things about this game, here are 2-3 positive:
The menu (at least my opinion, have also been other opinions Read) is much better designed and clearer than in Fifa. 13
The ball physics, and this is probably the largest and only truly well-done point, has become a lot more realistic and you can finally achieve even a bit worse Wineln and positions doors.
Summary and Evaluation:
All in all, Fifa 14 the worst match of the FIFA series and I can each player of a sports simulation authenticity, close to reality and credibility, just by this game, advise!
Of course this is my opinion about this game, but there are still nearly 300 more 1-star reviews on Amazon.com, I believe that this review largely corresponds to the truth and can help you as readers hopefully in your decision.
For newcomers to the Fifa business I can only say:
Please take this game not as an indication or prime example of a Fifa game because it's not for sure.
Buy some preferring instead to Fifa 13, which is much better and much more life-like.
