Alot ot cover today folks as we dive into some new gameplay mods, a different camera, and some pure filth from Rasmus! Let me know your thoughts as always and ill see you in the next episode! Anth James Gameplay Mod - www.patreon.com/anthjames_gameplayoverhaul
The reason why the gameplay at launch (version 1.0) often feels superior to later updates is because the original development team, who crafted the game from the ground up, is usually different from the smaller post-launch team responsible for patches and updates. As a result, the initial release often has more cohesive and polished gameplay, while later patches might introduce balancing issues or unintended changes.
That's interesting. And annoying. The game is always really enjoyable at release but gets more and more frustrating and broken. At least now I know why.
Please keep up this series on.. You are amazing and to be honest this EA FC 25 is not bad at all (when it comes to carrier mode,cannot say for ultimate team as I havent tried it yet). I was a huge fan of PES since 2006. and since this sh.t with E football started I really miss to play good football game. EA FC 25 will do for now.
The camera looks pretty nice for watchers. But I feel it inconvenient to play because of is't a kind of flat, so you don't have the proper prospect of width and distances. The second reason the geometry is changing in the final thirds compare to the middle of the pitch. Anyway nice one, Ricky.
Anth James mod is amazing and make Gameplay so more realistic I have also loaded FL25 and new Gameplay is pretty good as well so there will be a challenge for FC25 and FL25 career mode lol
Surprised you didn't clip that bicycle kick for your own collection in the EA editor. That was class. Just imagine if your players could get injured from celebrating too hard. 🤯 ➕ 😔 😂
Feel the console version is better after the update. Teams take more shots at goal instead of tying to dribble into the goal also they cross a bit more. Im sure future versions of the mods will improve things bit im staying with console at moment. The jerky animations are shocking in this day and age. Looking forward to some FL25 as well.
I don't think most of us came to this channel to watch Fifa tbh. Yea I do understand the situation with Efootball but I have tried watching this series and I definately can''t. TBH I'd take efootball my league series to EA series. Thats my opinion though. I have tried to love fifa but I cant. I also tried giving this series a try but seriosly I cant.. Am here rewatching that Derby county series. That was fun I wish you would have continued maybe for a season or two. But its cool you are trying something different though, you aint doing some of us justice same as efootball ain't doing us none😂
I mean I've played all football games lol so the crowd is always going to be mixed. But i know generally my audience is more suited to PES etc so totally understandable. FL 25 just came out so we'll get that rolling very soon. Appreciate any support at the end of the day :)
26:38 soooo frustrating from cpu. Clear touch n go on….decides to turn around n do nothing. The decision making is just off and unfortunately i dunno if mods can help.
Honestly i really want to be respectful to the moders cause i know he probably did work a lot on this ,but i kinda prefer the original gameplay more ,i will give him it slower game wich we most of us all want but it remain EAFC wich will always have arcade feel so you can’t fully deconstruct that just gotta deal whit it or don’t play that game cause it’s the core of EAFC ,now outside of gameplay yes mod are good to have license team like Milan clubs or other little additions wich or definitely a plus but in term of gameplay it’s been one of your episode i enjoyed the least!!
thing about fifa and the people who makes it doesnt really understand football and how to make it dynamic..football consists of so many things mainly things like flow, momentum how certain players affect tactics and the opposing teams tactics. problem with fifa you slow it down and the game just looks dead because there is no flow and inproper movement of AI etc..i dream of a brilliant football game i dont think we will ever get it..anyhow i downloaded football life 2025 but need like 400gig space to make it enjoyable haha...hoping to see your recommended mods for football life
I tried Anth’s gameplay mod, but couldn’t get into it due to the CPU’s attacking being limited and playing the exact same way no matter what team. I’m currently playing as Schalke in Bundlesliga 2 and the CPU would left stick dribble, and then hold L2, and then pass until they get into the box, where they smash it top bins. Definitely still looking out for future updates, but right now it’s a bit frustrating for me as it is
Hey man, as I've said everywhere - the mod hasn't yet TOUCHED cpu behaviour, positioning etc etc etc. There's a number of things to get to, but to do it properly it needs to be done in time. If I just go and randomly tinker with things without having spent any time on it, all I'm doing is creating more of a mess and then I'll never make progress as I'll be constantly figuring out what is my mess and what needs changing from EA. I'm working stage by stage. Give it time and you will see ;)
The problem with mods like this are they are a passion project, tailored towards it creator... Just using sliders means you can tailor the game how you think it's at its best, or more realistic. Also, most of it is placebo anyway.... Like the ball physics. EA don't choose to make the ball physics crap, it's a limitation of the games engine... A modder can't magically fix it. But they can break it because the game is designed with the ball physics as they are. Changing it means weird things happen, like the AI refusing to cross the ball, or just running back and forth like they were in this match. Or there being zero fouls.
Actually this is quite incorrect. I'm VERY aware of people's different opinions about what 'realistic' is. My FC25 is currently in it's very early stages and has not been fleshed out AT ALL yet. As I state very clearly in the files there are MANY MANY areas that I'm yet to touch as of now as I'm working things things stage by stage. My FC24 mod for example actually has over 180+ options and 20+ aio standalone versions allowing you to customise and refine the gameplay to your own liking. The elements you're speaking about regarding ball physics isn't accurate in this case either. If you take it to certain levels then it can lead to certain 'weird' behaviours but this is not the case here I can assure you. Everything I do is balanced more than you would think. Regarding CPU behaviour and fouls - that is ALL default as of now. Again, I've said this very clearly that my FC25 mod is still very much in its infancy. It would be insane to think I can come in and completely mod the game in about 3-4 weeks. I haven't touched positioning, fouls, CPU behaviour, player differentiation, errors - etc, etc, etc just yet. I'm working on positioning for the next release. This test V1 that Ricky is playing covers just what I state in the pdf - which is primarily movement, ball freedom and a few other areas. Much more to come - you will see.
Ugarte and Casemiro don’t move because your playing them out of position they are CDM’s not CM’s mate, I know it’s stupid but as soon as a player is out of position they do nothing 🤯
hey spl football life 2025 came out could u make another tutorial on how to download it or would it be the same on how to download spl football life 2024
FOOTBALL LIFE 2025 DROPPED!!! This is cool but the AI doesn't want to play actual football it's mostly just one on ones and dribbles. Let's get some real football back!! Love ya mate
I haven't touched fouls at all yet (amongst many other areas). I've said that my FC25 mod is still very much in its early stages. There's so many areas I'm yet to get to. It would be crazy to think I'd come in and completely rework the game in less than a month. I'm working stage by stage. Those who played my FC24 mod had plenty of fouls.
The latest update actually made it way more passive AI wise.. Ive cranked it up on Legendary on PS5, and not getting destroyed etc like i was before. So yeah, they've done something update wise..

Amazing series Ricky. Fc 25 is something fresh in your channel because football life is very old and repetitive..
The reason why the gameplay at launch (version 1.0) often feels superior to later updates is because the original development team, who crafted the game from the ground up, is usually different from the smaller post-launch team responsible for patches and updates. As a result, the initial release often has more cohesive and polished gameplay, while later patches might introduce balancing issues or unintended changes.
That's interesting. And annoying.
The game is always really enjoyable at release but gets more and more frustrating and broken.
At least now I know why.
People need to accept that this game is better than efootball
Just waiting for the efootball cope now. 😂 👇
😂 the player still moves like a cartoon instead of a human, Efootball is better, more realistic
Stop the cap @@Skull7727
It's not perfect nor will it be but efootball gameplay is way better imo
I hate efootball (well most of it) but the gameplay is still more fun imo. Everything else, fifa wipes the floor with them.
Please keep up this series on.. You are amazing and to be honest this EA FC 25 is not bad at all (when it comes to carrier mode,cannot say for ultimate team as I havent tried it yet). I was a huge fan of PES since 2006. and since this sh.t with E football started I really miss to play good football game. EA FC 25 will do for now.
The series are really nice
That's the same camera I use. Great job, Ricky!
Please stay with this playthrough
Series has been great. Keep it up! 👏
Yeah good game , qual goal mate keep it going 👏
As always amazing video. Keep it up. You should aim for top 4 and Fa cup.
Added to best Goals collection, just amazing.
The camera looks pretty nice for watchers. But I feel it inconvenient to play because of is't a kind of flat, so you don't have the proper prospect of width and distances. The second reason the geometry is changing in the final thirds compare to the middle of the pitch. Anyway nice one, Ricky.
Amazing work man
Yes finally episode 10 Ricky i have been waiting very long time now atlast man.
Think Højlund saw Garnachos bicycle kick last season and thought lemme have some of that! 😂
This episodes are good I am really enjoying it I like the fast uploade of the episodes thanks keep it up🎉❤
wow today we actually saw the full back do a overlapping run. Really good mod
Wow!! What a finish by Rasmus!
Anth James mod is amazing and make Gameplay so more realistic I have also loaded FL25 and new Gameplay is pretty good as well so there will be a challenge for FC25 and FL25 career mode lol
That was an amazing goal what the hell
Ikr like where the hell did Hojlund pull THAT from?? 😂
Surprised you didn't clip that bicycle kick for your own collection in the EA editor. That was class. Just imagine if your players could get injured from celebrating too hard. 🤯 ➕ 😔 😂
What a goal v Porto..🎉
nice goal bro
AI behaviour you can up the crossing slider to 75. AI CPU crosses a lot more in wide areas.
FOOTBALL LIFE 25 IS OUT RICKY🎉
For be a fifa game, is not that bad. Seem enjoyable
Feel the console version is better after the update. Teams take more shots at goal instead of tying to dribble into the goal also they cross a bit more. Im sure future versions of the mods will improve things bit im staying with console at moment. The jerky animations are shocking in this day and age. Looking forward to some FL25 as well.
what a goal
Are you gonna do an installation tutorial on Football Life 25 like how you did on Football Life 24? Heard there are few new features
Yeah just saw it out and about!! So ill try and get something done this week for sure
I don't think most of us came to this channel to watch Fifa tbh. Yea I do understand the situation with Efootball but I have tried watching this series and I definately can''t.

Thumbs up done
26:38 soooo frustrating from cpu. Clear touch n go on….decides to turn around n do nothing. The decision making is just off and unfortunately i dunno if mods can help.
Ikr it was like the CPU figured out how to go so far and then just... stopped. Like the script didn't know how to complete itself properly.
This version of my mod hasn't yet touched cpu behaviour, positioning etc. This is all to come. You will see how much can be changed soon!
Honestly i really want to be respectful to the moders cause i know he probably did work a lot on this ,but i kinda prefer the original gameplay more ,i will give him it slower game wich we most of us all want but it remain EAFC wich will always have arcade feel so you can’t fully deconstruct that just gotta deal whit it or don’t play that game cause it’s the core of EAFC ,now outside of gameplay yes mod are good to have license team like Milan clubs or other little additions wich or definitely a plus but in term of gameplay it’s been one of your episode i enjoyed the least!!
I disagree with my friend we need modes to eafc without gameplay modes the game is complete trash
thing about fifa and the people who makes it doesnt really understand football and how to make it dynamic..football consists of so many things mainly things like flow, momentum how certain players affect tactics and the opposing teams tactics. problem with fifa you slow it down and the game just looks dead because there is no flow and inproper movement of AI etc..i dream of a brilliant football game i dont think we will ever get it..anyhow i downloaded football life 2025 but need like 400gig space to make it enjoyable haha...hoping to see your recommended mods for football life
FL 25 is out man. Waiting for Ur tutorial and review
My boy Ricky Martin
37:47 🤣🤣
Bro this game has that limited possession script …. You could only hold the ball for while and then the script gets you like I hope people know this 🥴
We do enjoy the game mate. Even with the brand new FL25 master league will stay the same boring stuff that we played for years
Did you go for the standalone version of the mod? Or added any options?
Just standalone for now. Regular
Rasmus been watching CR7 highlights.
if your gonna play counter the wingers should stay high imo
I tried Anth’s gameplay mod, but couldn’t get into it due to the CPU’s attacking being limited and playing the exact same way no matter what team.

Give Anth some feedback on that if you can. The more people that can. I'm sure he'll appreciate how different people find it plays

Do you have some kind of condition? The faces you make with every sentence are... fascinating.
Haha called being a twat 😎

I'll keep that in mind. But honestly they should still move around lol.. Otherwise you're really limited on who can play where..
And that's bs from EA. Its career mode not football manager. They need to move regardless
@@TheTrueBritsAgree! V2 will be my first changes to positioning. Big improvements coming :)
mod makes it better but pes 2021 still better gameplay
Reduce gk ability for u and ai to 45
hey spl football life 2025 came out could u make another tutorial on how to download it or would it be the same on how to download spl football life 2024
FOOTBALL LIFE 2025 DROPPED!!! This is cool but the AI doesn't want to play actual football it's mostly just one on ones and dribbles. Let's get some real football back!! Love ya mate
Yep just seen that 🙌
@@TheTrueBrits please play fl25 miss that
What did you think of the gameplay mod?
Will you please play football life 25
Rasmus aint doing that in real life lmaoo
He’ll get injured just trying to attempt it!
Are you thinking of trying SP Football Life 25? It's still better than this game.
Size 55feet indeed
Hate the player models that ea chooses
🤟😉🤙
Your mods aren't working like eSim you have to apply them again or something
eSim im only using the camera mod. Turf was getting hate lol
@@TheTrueBrits Whaat i loved it! Either way fire series man
what the hell is a Mod?
Ricky it is time to download Football Life 25
lol already downloaded, just to get it all setup and away we go!
@@TheTrueBrits Can't wait to see you get started 😃 maybe for a change you can start with a 3 stars team.
No fouls the whole game, thats not realistic.
Yeah fouls have always been a Mehh topic
I haven't touched fouls at all yet (amongst many other areas). I've said that my FC25 mod is still very much in its early stages. There's so many areas I'm yet to get to. It would be crazy to think I'd come in and completely rework the game in less than a month. I'm working stage by stage. Those who played my FC24 mod had plenty of fouls.
Please do both press conference 😂😂😂😂
Enjoying the series but let me be the 1st to say that gameplay mod sucked. It actually seems worse.
Have you used the mod yet?
If not use it then b4 u judge
The latest update actually made it way more passive AI wise.. Ive cranked it up on Legendary on PS5, and not getting destroyed etc like i was before. So yeah, they've done something update wise..
TheTrueBrits stop playing this weak game. and talk about Efootball, maybe konami will listen and im sure they watch your channel
