We analyze FIFA 18, it is still the King of digital football

Every year we ask ourselves the same question ... Will PES finally catch up with FIFA? And the reality is that after testing both video games we can say that this time PES 2018 is closer than ever to FIFA 18. However, today we are going to analyze the best-selling football video game that is destined to continue ruling this year, the FIFA 18.

The gameplay and the quality of the graphics do not seem to have improved much, however, these are all some details that lovers of quality football wanted to contemplate little by little. FIFA 18 can continue to provide us with hours and hours of fun.

This installment has evolved slightly, but seeing these steps and coming to understand that we are not facing a simple FIFA 17.0 makes all the users of this type of video game quite happy, because this is how we better have a good time, playing football and challenging to our friends online to see not only who is capable of winning, but also capable of scoring the most beautiful goals. We go there with the analysis of FIFA 18, these have been our first impressions.

Few but enough gameplay improvements

FIFA 18 has wanted to hit where it hurts the gamers of error. He wanted to solve some of the characteristics that made scoring a goal quite easy. The first step has been in defensive terms, now it seems that the automatic defense system (R1) is not as effective as usual. We are many lovers of this teammate defense, since while the AI ​​attacked the rival, we focused on covering any possible pass line. Without a doubt, it will be a matter of getting used to it, it doesn't look like it's going to be too difficult.

But it is not the only change at the defensive level, the players in this position in general seem to have dropped in speed considerably, as in real football, the position on the field of a rough central defender is going to be more important than ever, that's why We must not go crazy with pressure. Once again, FIFA will reward those who they put the bus back, far from a pressure in the center that is becoming more popular in world football.

The road has now adopted a more complete story mode, we are no longer locked in the Premier League, we will be able to share the bench with Cristiano Ronaldo himself. But be careful, because Alex Hunter is no longer just any stranger.

The setting of the stadiums has also undergone a major retouch, now the banners are more personalized depending on the local team, the public does not seem like a repetitive cardboard, but we see how certain parts of the stands get excited and make it known. The reality is that now the elaboration of the plays will prevail a little more, wanting to eradicate that famous street runner that made sprinters very well-priced in Ultimate Team. So much so that passes to the hole (up or down) have declined significantly.

Ultimate Team as the great asset of always

You can now take advantage of the FIFA Ultimate Team WebApp To start assembling your team, if you are a user of the previous edition you will receive welcome envelopes, for example we had a couple of listed players who have allowed us to assemble an 82/100 team before the official launch of the game, despite It will be available on Tuesday for those who purchased the Icon edition among other more fortunate users.

Graphically little but enough

FIFA 18 continues to take full advantage of the Frostbite engine that EA uses for example in Battlefield 1. The reality is that now the grass has taken on a note of more realism, although in the PES faces it continues to be more efficient. On the other hand, the game's billboard adopts the league calls, as well as notable improvements in the public, the celebrations and also how time affects the players.

In short, although it is extremely familiar to us, FIFA 18 has changed enough to justify its acquisition, although we recommend EA not rest on its laurels, Konami is going strong with a PES 2018 that left us fantastic sensations. Remember that you can play with the Icon edition from Tuesday, September 26, for other mortals from September 29.

Be that as it may, FIFA 18 seems to continue to be the leader, especially on the issue of FIFA Ultimate Team and its FUT Champions that allows you to rub shoulders with the elite with almost no effort. The reality is that Electronic Arts is keeping well the scepter of leader of the simulation in football, and YouTube is already at the top of users who are having a great time with FIFA 18 ... are you going to be one of them? It's going to play and prove it.
