EA Sports has only made one significant change to the on-field play in FC 24

Which brings us to FC 24. This year's entry in the franchise doesn't have as many bells and whistles as its predecessor,but still makes an impressive attempt to keep things feeling fresh and new. EA FC 24 Coins Is that enough to entice FC 24 owners or casual soccer fans into a repeat purchase? Read on to find out.

Fundamentally, EA Sports has only made one significant change to the on-field play in FC 24 with its introduction of realistic 'first touch' physics. No longer does the ball lock on to a player's foot regardless of skill, but instead will awkwardly bounce forward as a "real" rolling soccer ball would do. A triple-A star like Lionel Messi will have far greater success trapping the ball and pushing up field whilst in a mild sprint, but less-skilled players will usually tap the ball a few steps forward before collecting it.

This does (arguably) create for a more realistic soccer experience, but it might also detract some from players' enjoyment of the game. It's when EA Sports combines the first touch mechanic with last year's pro player intelligence that things get real squirrely. Since those AI players are less about risk now, they'll usually contain their opponent and wait for that first touch mechanic to kick in, and then move in to take the ball away.

It forces the player to be more cautious but it also forces gamers away from virtual soccer - into EA Sports FC 's version of it. Rather than an aggressive series of through balls and breakaways, the game features far more gradual, cautious advances into the opposing fourth of the field. Is it more realistic? Yes. Does it also make the game less fun? Also yes. It's not a complete deal breaker, but the first touch is surely going to need some refinement going forward. Aside from that the game is as crisp as ever, and player faces look the best they ever have.

Nearly all of the collision problems in FC 24 have been squashed,FC 24 Coins and even the tactical defending has been given some much-needed attention. In addition, shooting, passing, dribbling, etc. are all marginally better versions of what was featured in FC 24. Nagging problems like the persistence of "bending" shots is gone, but inconsistencies between player intent and the game's interpretation of that intent are still there. Needless to say, veteran EA Sports FC players will find that the gameplay is much sharper and more refined than FC 24's, and that alone makes it worth checking out.
