My Honest Review of EA FC 24 after Playing 250 Hours
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2023
- In today's video, we dive into the world of FIFA Career Mode. Is it still as enjoyable as it used to be, or have the bugs and issues taken over? We'll tackle all of these questions in detail.
First off, is FIFA Career Mode playable? Despite a few bugs, it's still enjoyable. Dynamic potential issues, menu glitches, and challenging board objectives can be frustrating, but they haven't ruined the overall experience, at least not in my shorter playthroughs.
But how does FIFA 24 stack up compared to its predecessors? The strengths and weaknesses remain largely unchanged. It's great for those who love developing young talents but not so much for those craving realistic AI behavior, especially in transfers. Clubs like Athletic Bilbao making unrealistic signings and rapid budget inflation in lower divisions are persistent issues.
Older players still decline rapidly, which should be tied to their professionalism or stamina stats. Unfortunately, there are no new leagues added, and several national teams have been removed, affecting the unlicensed World Cup mode.

My biggest problem with this game mode isn’t actually the game mode itself, it’s the gameplay. It doesn’t matter what tactical vision you have or what playstyles a player has…your midfielders don’t track back, you can’t tackle, the AI always catch up to you and the keeper animations are broken. Oh and every corner I concede results in a goal. Doesn’t matter how realistic you keep things off the pitch, on the pitch game mechanics will fuck you over inevitably.
Line length 30-40 thanks me later
It was the same on fifa 23, so it was not fun and unplayable for me
I don’t know what you guys do to the game. None of this is true and a regular occurrence.
@@floatinrocktubetalk3768 they probaly have shitty tactics
@@floatinrocktubetalk3768 I'd play fifa for years and before midfielders used to track back as they should (when the CAM is going in the box, the CDM is not following, for example.)
Also before, tackles were more effective! Now sometimes your defender miss the tackle (just don't touch the ball) when the opponent is just going to the defender...
One of the big things that piss me off for years is when you loan players out you can never tell how they're getting on with their stats unless they're loaned in the same league as you , otherwise they only get game time in the cups
The thing that I hate about career mode is the objectives. In one of my careers I picked arsenal and they want you to do the treble in the first season
Some of them are ridicules. I played as Bayern. Winning almost every game, but I was at risk of loosing my job because I didn't sign 3 African young players. How would this look like in real life? XD Yes, you won every single competition, but we don't care, you didn't sign young players, so you are fired.
@@Barni2212I started a road to glory as Dynamo Dresden and got sacked at the end of the 1st season for the same reason, even though I won the league
It’s absolutely insane that they don’t have the option to turn off manager sacking or at very least choose your objectives. I boycotted this year. Why am I gonna grind through a whole dam season just to get fired from my championship side because I couldn’t beat man city in the FA cup.
One of the main reasons I play on PC
I started carrier with Marseille and they want me to win Ligue 1 over a PSG first season :D
On my career save, Martinelli was top goal scoring in January. Then Arsenal sold him in January to bayer leverkusen Europa league team. Makes no sense!
It's very annoying that any team will sell any player as long as you ask nicely.
leverkusen is doin amazing currently, realistic game
I played every version of FIFA from 08 to 15, and career mode was always the main reason why I'd buy the game. In 2015, I sold my Xbox 360 and moved to another country. There were so many things happening in my life... I simply didn't have time to play video games anymore. But honestly, I always missed the fun and joy of playing it. It was only in 2020, COVID times, that I decided to go back to the game and believe me, I played thousands of hours since then. I'd get frustrated with the gameplay but would end up buying the next version nonetheless. Not this time though. It's about time for me to give up. The fun man, it's just not there anymore. It's all about UT, and I can't help but think that if the football gaming market wasn't so monopolized by EA, we would actually have a very good game to play. Just look at other genres of video games and how they evolved regarding the realism aspects that every game-developing company aims for nowadays. EA can make good graphics, yes, but to me, the gameplay is poor, with players that feel like they're floating on the pitch. TBH I've had more fun playing e-football than FIFA 23. I mean, we're talking e-football guys!!! xD much love y'all
Why they removed walk-in and pre match intros
Thank you for your life story
Efootball is better ur ryt bout gameplays
fifa 2015 was such a good game. I started losing interest in the gameplay after 2019. Rubber banding, and your team turning into morons if you had a 3 goal lead, ruined the game for me.
Dangg it! You get back in here and do 3 bicycle goals and I might let u stay on my glorious fulham club
The biggest issue I have with career mode in Fifa is that it's always been far away from EA's main focus. Of course, everybody knows that Fifa's "main" gamemode has always been Ultimate Team (since it was first introduced). The worst thing is that career mode was legit better in Fifa 2013 and has just been going downhill ever since.
I'd like career mode to be more like a lite version FM but with playable matches, basically exactly how EA did it with FIFA Manager back in the day
I don't think they go too technical because a lot of kids play the game and they want to keep it simple but if they had a manager + mode that was like that it would be amazing
250 hours. 65k subscribers! Many videos helping people have fun with this game since it's release. I appreciate the dedication and I hope you had fun in those hours.
It seems like you guys want something similar to what's 2k has? But better 😂 cause 2k screws there playerbase too😂
250 hours is crazy. Go outside bro 😭😭😭😭
I mean technically this is his job, he create content from playing the game making money. But 250 hrs is still insane 😂
Why they removed walk-in and pre match intros
@@bilalkhichi6554 idk man
@@ang6016lmfaaaoo facts
It may be for weeks
It's wild how much realism, and perhaps a rework of the youth academy could do to the game mode.
This is really high quality video m8! You're super objective with your veredict. I havent played it but I agree sometimes people complain a lot about bugs that arent too significant. Fifa is fifa, it's about what you'd expect every year really 🤷♂️🤷♂️ great video, cheers!!
250 hours is crazy that's ten and a half days already please go live
No. FC is live.
Being honest the problem with career mode is the gameplay, huge gap between world class and legendary/ultimate, ai is impossible to play against and will always score a stupid goal no matter how well you play, defending never works can magically have a gap appear just walk through tackles, goalkeepers are useless its nowhere near a fun experience. Don't mind being harder to play against but when game mechanics don't work then theres no point at all.
Agreed - the step up from WC to Legendary is insane. I went from beating Man City 5-1 to losing by the same scoreline to Wolves after changing the level. Every opposition player becomes as good technically as Messi and their every shot flies into the goal.
Been pissing about with sliders on legendary to find the right balance because default legendary is just ridiculous. still end up running away with it every game. Feel lost.
i havent even played my 10 hour trial yet and you've got 250 hours😭
I have 2 hours left 😭😭
i have 9 hours and 10 minutes left🤪@@Lilpeteythegoat
To be honest I have started playing PES 16 masterleague instead of FC 24. I just wanted something totally different from fifa 22 and 23
Been playing career mode on fc 24 and the only thing I dislike is the lack of walkouts for me on PC. I really enjoyed hearing the champions league music while they all stood in the line and now I can't get that anymore. Plus the music sometimes just doesn't play and just plays the wierd new intro music rather than CL music.
i switched from ea fc24 aka fifa 24 to football manager 23, and i'll buy fm24 next month. sure, you can't control the players in fm23 like you can in fifa, but the complexity and the amount of things you can do is a lot better than what fifa ever offered.
I don't see myself switching back to fifa, or now called ea sports fc.
Estoy en la misma situación. Luego de probar football mánager no puedo jugar más al FIFA, aunque así lo quisiera me terminó aburriendo por la falta de realismo
Same winning the fa cup and league double on FM with Bristol city was way better than any career mode I’ve ever done, I lost a Champions league final to Real Madrid and was devastated 😭😭
Yo tengo poca experiencia con FM , el primero que jugué fue el 22 y lo utilicé para aprender, ahora con algo más de experiencia compré el 24 y estoy probando al Milán en la beta, nada que ver con FIFA todo es más realista e inmersivo y no es para nada fácil ganar, hay que prepararse para los partidos, tomar decisiones es excelente! Saludos desde argentina
Aparte la cantidad de jugadores, etc es otro mundo
yep football manager is milestone ahead fifa in terms in managing football club
My biggest problem is that lower league teams make no to few signings every season they use the same players and lineups.
the biggest change that isnt revolutionaly (i think) is the ai manager actually putting their best players in squad (as u said real madrid is buying mbappe and haaland and still ancelotti is going to put joselu in striker) i think it kills whole game. teams that are actually huge and spend huge amounts of money (which i dont really mind cause inflation in fifa career mode was always craaaazy and doesnt really do that much maybe kills a bit realism) but i think thats the biggest problem of manager career
This was the first EA sports game I didn't buy since FIFA17. I basically only get it for the career mode, and I had really hoped that losing their FIFA naming rights would have shocked them into making a really polished and innovative product to launch the EAFC franchise. Unfortunately they have just become lazy and are still pumping out unfinished games which lack core features, innovative mechanics, and are often either slower, more glitchy, and lack some of the features of their predecessors. It's not that they don't have the money, talent, or community feedback to invest in a great department to put together a proper career mode. They are just lazy and know that the cash cow is UT. I don't want a game as in-depth as FM, but I want optional features that allow you to go really in-depth into the manager experience. Things like specific coaching roles, club management regarding stadiums and training facilities, youth academies, scouting, contracts, tactics, interactions with players, agents, fans, and the media. There are so many things that could be overhauled or made more in-depth that a proper, well-funded gaming developer could put together in a year. At the moment these games are just reskins which aren't even supported properly. I currently play FIFA23 and the career mode is still littered with minor bugs which will never be ironed out because EA just don't care - such a terrible game developer.
nah it should be in depth as fm that should be standard for career mode
“I don’t want something like FM”
Asks for everything you do in FM 😂
I can only admire your dedication to this game
Made the Beneliga in CM this season. Put the Top 10 Dutch and top 8 Belgian teams into the top league in France and put the remaining dutch and belgian teams into the french 2nd division. I had to keep 4 french 2nd division teams, so picked the ones closest to the Belgian boarder. I then split the french teams equally across the Belgian and Dutch leagues, so that you still get the top french teams in the European competitions. This is working well so far, done a season and a half.
I think it’s better than recent years, I’ve started making content and I’m trying to be more creative. I wish they had more leagues in the game so I could do a RTG or something but it is what it is
EA just dont care enough about career mode. I think its because they cant make that much money out of career mode. This game should not have this many bugs. Its ridiculous how many bugs there are every year.
You should be able to have more than 7 players on the bench
I believe that they actually going with marketing tactics. That they trying to move career mode people to ultimate team by making it boring with career. It serves a lot of birds with one stone. In fact I would say to fifa 08- 12 prior ultimate team ( I didn’t realise that it was before ultimate team until I thought about it 😂) was much more fun than now although it was of course with less graphics.
some of my best memories of career mode are playing in random leagues. chile, colombia, japan
The biggest question I always ask myself is that why did EA remove the aggressive pressing it was so good in FIFA19
I missed out on critical objectives without being fired because I delivered league&cup trophies.
Only reason I ever got fired was for offerring a player a wage x3 larger than my top earner. As a workaround if I want to sign a legend on a free transfer in their last 6 mths, I offer a player I intend to sell a wage x3 of my top earner. Then I can offer the super star x3 of the new top earner (or x9 of the initial one). After that I just sell the middle man so I don't have to pay him an unnecessary wage. Depending on the age of a superstar, I can play them or sell them(if they are older than 32, they can lose 4-5 overall pts/year and their price plummets).
I used to play FIFA, but super long time ago. I have just started again and thanks for mentioning Czech Republic 🤗🤗🤗😄
I was dissopointed by not having option for playing Czech FORTUNA league. Luckily I could choose Slavia, Sparta or Plzen to play for and also put these three teams to PL. So I did and I enjoy it.
There are few things I would change, but anyway, I enjoy the game. Especially when winning. 😄😄
Subscribing just because of your extreme dedication to this broken game.
The main problem with career mode isn’t actually to do with career mode, it’s to do with gameplay. The AI are dumb, have terrible positioning and the players have to stick in a formation defensively. Meaning the AI players can’t press you to get the ball back, as there would be a gap. It means the gameplay is slow, sluggish and unresponsive. For once, I’d love to see the opposition DM track my LW running on the inside and make a last-ditch tackle to prevent a shot. That’d be fun and competitive.
I’m very slowly moving fully away from FIFA/FC and playing more and more FM. And I think when FM24 releases, the excitement is going to lead to me probably not playing FC24 for a good few months. FM is everything FC isn’t. Fun. Responsive AI. Whilst the graphics are worse, the gameplay is much more realistic. If a defender pushes up to challenge an attacker, the full-backs and remaining CB will shift to close any gaps left.
Overall, Career Mode this year is probably the best since FIFA 21. However with FM on a very gradual, but rapid rise, I can see myself (by FC25/26) not buying the game. EA don’t care about the game and the game is falling behind it’s competitors.
Look at the other comments in this comment section. I’m not the only one saying this…
Yea fm23 took some time getting used to the point i remember uninstalling the game but i was so infatuated with the attention to detail and how realistic it is i re installed it and forced myself to learn it. Football manager is a great game, but if your expecting fifa u will be dumbfounded, fifa and football manager cannot be compared as fifa is more arcadey and FM is actual REALISM, it took me almost 6 months to fully understand what i was doing lol. But that game is fucking insane
When doing youth scout setup I put physically strong or any and ask specifically for strikers but I’ll still get CMs or wingers anyway any thoughts or tips?
i'm just waiting for the option for an unsackable game mode so i dont have to worry about board objectives aswell cuz i always end up in the red even if i have a great season if i just sim the season
I just want Veikkausliiga (Finnish Premiership). I remember when you were able to create your own teams or download them - so people me included created every single team, player and so on from Finland and you could replace Allsvenskan (Sweden) teams with them and play the career mode with them.
Creation Centre, ngl that was legendary.
7:20 Did they fix it though? I recall they had simply disabled the ability to fire coaches.
Why remove the 2 quick save spots, how does that improve the experience? Go back to any year since they added the global transfer network you can find career mode regressing, they may add on small additions that quickly feel meaningless. Since they have been able to monetise pro clubs you see better developments. I'm convinced eventually they will remove career mode so they can focus on other modes, as its not generating them any revenue.
I have a feeling they might remove it next year and just put up updates to ea 24 and tell everyone if you wana play career mode, just patch and play fc 24
The biggest problem for me is the Lack of Win allocation after matches. You have to win the entire trophy cabinet
Im 14, i´ve been playing career mode since fifa 18 when i was 8, and since then things have gone dull. For the first time in my life, after having 2000+ hours on every fifa i have played combined, i moved to football manager and didn´t buy this years game. BASICALLY MOVE TO FOOTBALL MANAGER, it´s everything the career mode community has ever wanted.
I play both, started with FIFA in like 2006 and started with FM in 2015. FM is way more interesting imo but I can understand some people just want to play the games and not watch it.. (I like FM more)
The only reason why I won't buy FM 2024 is that you can't insert face logo and kit logo on PS5
It sounds like what most people want are just the Football Manager games.
Brilliant career mode review, thank you, i take it there is still no stadium editor in the career mode?
I have noticed that if you’re managing a club that does NOT have a real life stadium in the game, you can “upgrade” your stadium to one of the generic stadiums at the end of the season.
It would be more fun and realistic if based off finances you could add a new stand to the existing stadium and update it gradually as clubs actually do.
250 hours 😭🙏 You need to have some human interaction
250 hours already 😂😂❤
You should share some of the saves you are doing like a series
Fifa career mode has been dull for some time and the answer to make it playable is live editor or mods. But EA add anticheat program that read mods as cheat. Anticheat has become a killjoy for me.
i wish they let us add playstyles to our players we created to use during the manager career mode
The biggest problem is game ruining bugs ie not being able to stay with your current club in player career at the end of the season and not being able to sack a coach and hire a better one in your manager career because it’ll force your game to crash. Game testing wasn’t done properly, clearly. Or, worse still, they knew about the bugs but put the game out as is anyway.
So which fifa has the ,,best'' career mode :) I wanna try it. I have FIFA 18, 20 and 22 on PS are anybof these titles great for career mode?
The worse thing is more and more teams/leagues are being removed each year!!! I’m a type of guy which likes doing realistic saves with real managers but they’re so much less options they’ve even went and deleted all MLS managers
Really wish we could scout Caribbean players and also they need to bring back man marking like it was back in the day
Great video, the question is, is it worth 48 bucks if I'm only going to play career mode? I don't like the ultimate team it's very toxic
All I know is I buy the games FOR career mode & can’t play mine because of a bug that doesn’t let me resign anybody. Nice to know I have more bugs ahead of me :)
They should have added the Brazilian league
I feel the changes in Manager career are mostly pointless. I like the tactical vision and the coaches aspect is okay and pretty confusing. The player training plans is poorly done, glitchy and last years way of it was miles better.
Theres also a bug where when you do a career mode with created players their lips get changed to the default lips no matter what lips you put on them
Tried playing with youth squad and I lose the lockeroom every time and get fired after a season
Does it bug when doing Manager career mode on PS4? Like the menu frozes? Because on mine if i simulate quite a bit, the game frozes
I don't understand the complaint about AI transfer. Just like the player's team has players in low form or injured so do the CPU teams. Hence why star players might be off sometimes.
My problem with Career mode is that every team feels the same. Finances are pretty pointless when im always going to get more money and finding youth players and scouting are stupid easy. All League 2 teams feel the same all Ligue 1 teams feel the same apart from the massively rich ones. And playing the game is pointless because even Legendary feels easy. Nothing really distinguishes a team in the same league like FM does and it makes it a massive bore.
How do you not get bored of the gameplay? Every year i try to get into Career Mode, but ever since i started playing FIFA online, i just can't enjoy it, even with sliders..
I was doing a career mode on my self and joined man united and got number 7 but mason mount also had it so my player and mason mount has the number 7
I miss most objectives and dont get fired, as long as you complete 1 critical then you’ll keep your job
I played about 20 trial games in kick off/tournament to try and adjust the sliders and finally found sliders that work so there’s no high scoring matches but still the game just isn’t fun
It’s the same thing as last year, last year I tried playing with new teams trying new objectives and styles and towards the end of the year it just died out.. hopefully EA can stop focusing on FUT and for one year put the focus back into career mode
They never will. They’ll take career mode out of the game before they do that. Our only hope is Konami putting out a master league for efootball because they don’t make nearly as much money if ultimate team style stuff.
I’m so tired of the “You recently negotiated a contract with this player” glitch. Hadn’t been able to adjust my 19 year old striker’s contract in about a season and a half. Randomly, another team met his $108,000,000 release clause, and there was nothing I could do about it since I couldn’t renegotiate with him 😅
Took me long enough (4 game edition, and hundreds of hours) to finally understand that the gameplay is just fine, at least compared to the rest of available football games. And the problem for me is probably the lack of depth in the offline game modes
Do you play football manager? Or have you tried it at all
Was loving my career mode was 4 seasons, objective was sign 3 North American players which I did then got sacked because I didn’t complete the objective and not played it since just ruined the fun completely
There shouldn’t even be manager sacking if they don’t care to do it right. Why is something like that even an objective. EA is trash.
Anyone have any good sliders for legendary? or maybe some good ones that make world class harder?
Can you edit potential in the game at all yet?
EAFC has become strictly online for me
If i want to play career i go back to fifa 23 with realistic sliders and were good
There’s something wrong with the AI gameplay it’s not real
I agree with all you said, but I would also like the women's league playable in career modeive been enjoying player career mode more than manager career mode in fc24
Fifas biggest issue in career mode is the fact all the good teams just get worse with time. Wolves for some reason always end up top of the prem for me. All the top teams have an average squad age of 35 and then they never buy any young players. So i will spank man city 6 nil but cant be some random european team cos they have loads of wonderkids
i switched to FM years ago never looked back
Back to playing FIFA 22 for the second time in a row
3.5/5 is looking at the game in isolation which i guess is fine but at this point we can't do that anymore. Looking at the game as a series it has to be given 0/5 cause it's another copy paste for the 10th or so year in a row. Even the menus they bragged about when they said they had updated them, yet it is only the main menu that had this treatment. in Player career mode for instance, i can't be made captain of my team even though i'm 90 overall playing with 68 overalls, so i can't change my teams tactics on the pitch, yet that was a feature more than 10 years ago when we had the playing manager option as a career path. They should never get credit for any work that is a copy paste and even if they added in the old stuff, that would simply just be the least they could do so they need to do that and innovate before we can ever give them credit again.
Worst defending in the past few years in the game and I get a game breaking bug on XSX where if I press the main menu button during the CM cutscenes the game completely freezes and its impossible to exit unless I close the game
The game that adds the Brazilian league back will win me forever
We really need competition for EA. EA is just slacking off
Going from beating teams on Ultimate 4 nil in 23 to struggling to score on Legendary in 24.
What I want to know is the game worth 30 pound or am I gunna play it for a couple of days then get bored.
Is it still possible to get fired because of a wage increase for your players?
I have a bug where board objectives make no progression and I don't know how to solve that...
Going through seasons without getting any injuries, AI never makes sliding tackles or getting red cards. Also near impossible to get a penalty 🙃
I think you need to make an update to the first question.. Apparently people can’t start a new career mode.
People complaining that he have 250 hours of Gameplay in fc
me having 372 hours: 💀
that's crazy
Should I buy this game on PC if I’ve never had a fifa before?
overall i just dont think i'll consider it a game until january
i think sth people don’t talk about enough is the repeated faces of generated players. i’m sure making the players have more random hairstyles and skin tones can’t be the hardest thing in the world!
how is there no coppa america ffs or something like it. im managing arsenal and argentina but and theres only friendly games for the south american nations
The lack of pregame walkouts is terrible for me, what an awful decision.
Bro never touches grass for the sake of us. Respect.
Imagine football manager ui and features with fifas graphics and gameplay
The problem with fifa on frostbite engine is that , they all skating and the ball is unrealistic.Fifa FC with the hypermotion tech , is unplaybale because there are to many animations , and you have no control of players at all.
I hate FUT, and FIFA career mode is what I invest my time in if I touch this game. As much as I love that mode, it has went downhill and it is disappointing, EA is getting their money from FUT so they don't give a shit about this mode, won't be surprised if it is removed in the future considering how buggy it already is.
Morale is absolutely broken and noone is talking about it, my star players riot when i put them on the bench once while my backups are crying about not getting enough gametime, then i end up getting sacked because the squad atmosphere is bad and it hurts the clubimage. had that happen three times in a row now, not once in 23
I play career mode where i’m watching from the touchline.. and i’m not allowed to win anything.. i’ve played big clubs, mid clubs and small clubs.. and every single time i find out the game forces even win-draw-lose stats.
Every single season i get 5-5-5 or 10-10-10 (W-D-L)
and win 0 trophies and i’ve tried every tactic with every team and buying decent players yet the scripting just kiiilllss any dreams and if you’re choosing a mid team, you’ll finish mid no matter what. No glory-story or shock relegation battle, just win 1-0 against city and then lose 0-3 to luton.. no win streaks no title charges nothing just mid and boring.
And the sliders only help with goal amount per game.
Problem is you could have a superteam and lose to a team in league 2
Happens in real life to.
How is there not a world cup in the career mode when in years prior before the licensing they had it but it was just called something else??
If I go on my team sheet in career mode, it crashes
Why the hell do they keep lowering the amount of save slots we have😡
