Gaming EA FC 24

FIFA 25 by Naughty Dog. Lead designer @Pexbo.

Fair scoring - if you or the opposition score then the other team will also receive a point, to maintain inclusivity.

Wokevision - everything will look woke.

Lib lobs - all passes, crosses, and shots that are lobbed will now be called Libs from now on.

Agendas - Naughty Dog will automatically set up your agenda at the start of every season/chapter. Should you dare to go against this agenda you will be cancelled.
WOKE
 
@Mr Pigeon I'd take a football game by Naughty Dog over the monetized trash FC that numbnuts like myself pour(ed) countless hours and energy into with no deep satisfaction other than a momentary dopamine buzz and then guilt for wasting my time on garbage.

Wrap my wokesack in bacon and tickle my minds bunghole with a same sex enema any day of the week over another EA football sacrilege.
 
The cover is hilarious. They seemingly spent all the budget on Zidane and Beckham and hastily generated the others.
 
Looks shite. I didn’t buy FIFA this year and I can’t see myself being tempted back in for 24. We’ll see when the gameplay and features are announced, i suppose.
 
Is this just a rebadging then? i.e using the same buggy FIFA code?

Or have they started from scratch with this?
 
All I need to know is whether it would work on steamdeck or not? I am astonished neither EA or Konami have released a version that works on steamdeck yet. They could just rework an old game to work on steamdeck and it would sell crazy.

It would take them ages to start from scratch. Even when they have switched to a ‘new’ engine over the years they generally ending up reusing a lot of what they already had.

It’s going to be the same old unfortunately.

Think 25 is meant to be a new engine I seem to recall from somewhere

Feck sake. Waste of time so.

FIFA is a cash cow in its current form, the only hope of having an actual enjoyable football game with any realism is them splitting Ultimate Team from the main game, which is never going to happen. As FUT caters to a different audience and is far more profitable, it will always drive this franchise in the same direction.
 
Fair to say I'll never play this.

UT destroyed the game, these faces are cherry on top.
 
I haven’t bought a FIFA or Pro Evo since the times when Ferguson was manager, but feck me this looks awful

Ronaldinho looks more like Kanu. It looks like an early PS3 game.
 
Which developer is making 'Fifa' then?

Lots of noise a bit ago that TakeTwo Interactive were looking at picking up that license and the higher ups distanced themselves whilst still managing to be very complimentary at the same time, I think if EA FC starts slowly then they might strike.

Will there be a Fifa game this year?

FIFA initially made noises about there being an official FIFA game, but without any sort of studio attached to the licence, it seems increasingly unlikely that we'll be seeing a football game with FIFA branding for the upcoming season. However, EA FC 24 will be pretty much exactly what FIFA 24 would have been had EA kept the licence.

From memory, literally the only reason EA dropped the licence was because FIFA were asking an obscene amount for what was essentially the right to call the game "FIFA" and call their global international cup "FIFA World Cup". I can't see why anyone else would be interested in paying an obscene amount for that licence when they'd still need to negotiate all of the other cup/league/team/player licences, that EA still have, on top, as well as, you know, actually create the game from scratch.

If EA FC sells similarly to FIFAs of previous years, I'd say the licence is dead, unless FIFA lower their demands.

Whilst it makes sense what EA have done, economically, it's still a bit annoying to think that they'll just make even more profit from this whole thing.
 
Well that was a fecking waste of time.

Wank, wank, self wanking, wank, HYPERMOTION, self wanking, Haaland wanking, wank, Ultimate Team, wank, end.
You were able to wank to that? I was as flaccid as as.... as something very flaccid!
 
So the only real change is they'll have live updates of adding some random animations which don't change much, and licensing for some women's football league's. And women players being mixed in with men's for ultimate team. Pack fillers for the popular players about to go through the roof.
 
Same shit different year. They can shove that motion bollocks up their ass. I bet it would still take 5 mins to shoot and pass. And the AI defenders letting them run right past them. Feck off
 
They’re still just incapable of promoting something without using buzzwords and shit 10 year olds would think looks cool.

10-year-olds have been their main audience since UT came out.
 
I'll be happy if EA just focus on that ultimate team gambling simulator nonsense, and another studio makes an actual proper football sim. Used to be Konami with PES but they've shit the bed lately, so hopefully FIFA licenses someone decent.
 
I'd be surprised if Fifa licenses anything more than a free to play mobile game with a shit ton of microtransactions.

I really enjoyed the 1 second of gameplay in a 2 minute gameplay trailer.

I think it was mostly in-game footage misleadingly labelled as game-play.

It looks terrible, doesn’t show off the game at all and if anything emphasises the lack of realism on the actual football side of things. The way the ball moves in some of those little clips was just bizarre, felt like it was being pulled by a magnet most of the time.

Haalands goal near the end by any chance? :lol:

Bang on. EA already had all the league licensees, FIFA we’re charging a stupid amount of money for using the name FIFA…with really nothing in return.

Throwing away money for no real reason. I don’t think they’ll be another studio that decides to make FIFA with what they charge.
