cheap fut 19 coins FIFA 18 is still only a few months old but we’ve spent long enough with it now to work out where it could do with some improvements. So while we love what EA have done with The Journey and playing games at Argentina’s El Monumental is still awesome we’ve drawn up a list of 19 things that would make sure FIFA 19 is the best FIFA yet.And if we tell EA now that means there’s plenty of time to get them all implemented before the next game comes out right?
1. More stadiums
All 20 Premier League grounds might appear in FIFA 18 but the rest of Europe is woefully under-represented. La Liga and Ligue 1 only have two stadiums each Serie A does slightly better with three and the Bundesliga has five but there are some seriously iconic theatres of football that are conspicuous by their absence. Come on EA isn’t it time grounds such as Napoli’s San Paolo Valencia’s Mestalla and Celtic Park made an appearance?
2. More crowd activity
Speaking of stadiums FIFA 18’s more lifelike crowds are only really visible in a small number of grounds which limits their impact somewhat. We’d like to see more activity in all arenas with crowds rising to their feet to appeal for penalties dispute yellow cards or chastise assistant referees for flagging offside. Fans could even leave early if their team is losing and for that extra slice of realism hospitality areas should stay empty for five minutes after the second half has kicked off while their occupants finish scoffing their prawn sandwiches.
3. More real faces
EA might have motion-captured Cristiano Ronaldo right down to his immaculately groomed hair but when some of Europe’s best players don’t even have full face scans there’s something wrong. Players such as Atletico Madrid’s Jan Oblak Napoli forward Dries Mertens and Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembélé still appear as generic players no more recognisable than some unknown left-back from the Transylvanian eighth division so imagine what it’s like if you want to play as Plymouth Argyle.
4. More lifelike players
Most players might look more recognisable than ever before but in FIFA 18 they still come across more like barely animated mannequins than real people. We’d like to see some life behind their eyes fifa 19 coins some proper expressions on their faces and maybe even the odd smile when they score. Not too much to ask is it?
5. Better defending
FIFA 18 is very much a game that favours attacking play and while that results in a lot of high-scoring matches it feels like a significant tactical part of the game is being neglected. Defenders need to track opposition runs more effectively while standing challenges could do with being less clumsy.
