adios 686 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Demo now available for FIFA 18, going to take a while to download (8GB). Looking forward to playing it. I'm downloading it while playing PES 2018. I'd advise people to at least give the demo of PES a go. It's the best version of football sim I've ever played and just pipped FIFA last season to the purists choice. Option file on PS4 takes care of the lack of licenses. Still, FIFA demo could still see it crowned champion this year. Link to post Share on other sites
Ant 345 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 I'd access to the closed fifa18 demo and didn't really play it much tbh Pace is king again it seems like back in 15/16, sheilding has been toned down so messi can hold off lukaku as well as he did...but not enough defending with the ai has been made less effective but controling defenders is still ropey R2 and no touch dribbling is dead Link to post Share on other sites
Ayatollah Hermione 3,983 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 It's certainly realistic; David Luiz was all over the fucking shop for me. Link to post Share on other sites
adios 686 Posted September 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) Played the demo a bit. Not as free-flowing or satisfying as PES 2018 for me. Does FIFA just reward you the more you put into it? I played it for years (while it was clearly superior) but didn't put a lot of time into it, so maybe PES is better for casuals. Tried myClub for the first time last night, which is fucking addictive. Edited September 16, 2017 by adios Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,322 Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) The GKs are are clearly broken. Desperately needs a patch. If a player heads a slow shot directly at the keeper he lies down and it bobbles over him. Already happened to me twice in 3 games Edited September 30, 2017 by Kid Dynamite Link to post Share on other sites
Ant 345 Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 it is that bad, i played my first game in it last night and scored 3 "chip shots" like that lifting it over the keeper, just same as the clip he rushes out and as soon as they get within a few yards start to lay down lol Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew 912 Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I've used up my ten hour EA access trial, I'll probably buy it at some point but not soon Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 3,312 Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'm off work Ill & that's the only thing tempting me as I'm dependant on the Doc signing me off and at the moment that's not likely. I will play it but the game is ALWAYS flawed in some respect or other. The journey is kind of worth doing....but mostly I'd just play seasons online. Link to post Share on other sites
adios 686 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Give PES a go FFS! My problem right now is it's too "easy" to put in perfect crosses and through balls but going totally manual is too far in the other direction. They've even got rid of the manual through ball option which I liked and used a lot. I can also turn the level up to where the computer hammers me, so it's not easy in that sense. Am very tempted to just join @Rayvin on Rocket League. Link to post Share on other sites

Its cross compatible anyway though. Link to post Share on other sites

adios 686 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't buy many games anyway, so it's not like I'll be devastated if it doesn't work out. I've already got more play out of PES and BF1 than I have for many years of console gaming before this. Link to post Share on other sites
