What’s the single player career mode like and general gameplay compared to last years?

Got fifa20 on EA play but was thinking about getting this while on sale but unsure if it’s worth it.

It's on sale? Where?
Cheapest I've seen is about £28 (XBOX), but that's not a big enough discount to tempt me. Are there better prices?

Seen the Beckham edition for £26.99 on cd keys for xbox, but I might just wait till it hits gamepass later next year.

4-0 and think I'm going to leave it, servers are beyond playable one game I had 90ms ping no idea how I won.

11-4 today which im happy with.
Cr7 still tearing it up as usual. Just need to improve on defense. I've been avoiding varane for as long as i can but him and gomez i think are the next step up for me.
VVD didnt impress when i had him.

Varane is elite level. Gomez is decent but not elite, VVD is very good.

Varane and Konate are such a beast pairing.

chroniclard · 27 Nov 2020 at 23:47

I sold VVD and went back to Gomez as he didnt seem worth that much coin, VVD does make some insane auto blocks/tackles though.

10-3. Terrible, terrible start and then I won 5 on the bounce. Been messing around with my team and now have varane and Ramos at the back.

Think I've used all my pack luck with Messi (more than fair) put all my reds into upgrade and got 86 digne. Packed nothing in lightening sbc's.

Jony27 · 28 Nov 2020 at 22:24

Ive just rage bought varane abd base Campbell.
If you cant beat em, join them

After a promising start im sitting at 14-7. The 15th-20th games are always the most challenging i find.

8-1 and then I quit about 12 games in a row, I just do not have the patience to play against tryhards on this game, it's awful and gets worse with every patch. Shame.

Quinnaay · 28 Nov 2020 at 22:45

Yeah I took 2 dcs (my Internet went down) early then I blitzed my way to 14 and quit loads when losing. Sold up think I'm going to use untradables play to 14 each week and wait for TOTY. Maybe make a few investments with the coins.

Andybtsn · 28 Nov 2020 at 22:59

7-2, get to 14 tomorrow

If I lose 3 in a row I would tend to get paired against the blind for 2 games, maybe DC doesnt help? Just put the pad down

Yeah that does appear to be the case, if you quit it doesn't adjust your matchmaking, but I just can't be bothered tbh.

Yeah, a lot of games I play against uber good players I can be 4-0 down after 15 mins, annoying as its a waste of time just putting pad down.

Quinnaay · 28 Nov 2020 at 23:44

Quitting certainly doesn't alter match making I quit a lot today and the game after was easily same or better than previous opponent.

Well you guys all seem to be enjoying yourselves...

Also have you seen this Spencer FC video, what do you guys think?

I respect it and agree and back his decisions and thought process.

FUT has always been corrupt in the way it's very pay to win.

It will never change and seems to get worse as each year goes by and now there is more rewards to play for each year it drives more reason to buy points.

Imagine playing COD and them releasing a gun that was the best gun on the game but cost money to unlock there would be uproar.

GoogalyMoogaly · 29 Nov 2020 at 00:59

Did one of the Battlefront games do that? Had a gun that was really good but hard to unlock unless you spent money on it? And like you say I think there was uproar.
