EA SPORTS FC™ Mobile Soccer 4+

FC Mobile, on paper, is by far the best mobile soccer/futbol game in the world. That being said, there are a few issues to take into consideration. Let’s start off with the most obvious flaw in not only FC Mobile, but the entire FIFA/EA FC across all consoles. It involves spending WAY too much money to climb up in the rankings. It is practically IMPOSSIBLE to achieve FC Champion, or Division 1, in FC 24, without spending a single PENNY. Literally you need to spend money just to be able to afford most packs. Want the Star Pass or other Mini Battlepasses? Yes, that’ll be $10. Now, $10 doesn’t sound like much, however, if you bought every season up until season 10, that is $100. And if you’ve been playing since FIFA Mobile first released, 2016, that would’ve added up to approximately $800 by the time FIFA Mobile 16 turns 8. One more topic I should discuss, if you’re new to FC Mobile, like, just joined new, you don’t stand a single chance if you plan to play FTP. All the teams now that TOTS and TOTY have come and gone are INSANE. You will be very lucky not to find at least ONE 97-99 TOTS in AMATEUR 2. So, yeah, if EA would actually listen to their fan base and made the game less p2w and more friendly for new users, then it would actually be good. Apart from that, no major issues that I could find.

Okay I have been playing for a decent bit. I started during the FIFA World Cup event. Don’t get me wrong it’s fun just pay to win and Grindy. When your playing the game though it is FUN. My main problem is the inflation and how you don’t have to work hard for a good team anymore. Remember when packing a 98 rated Messi card made you so happy. It used to cost so so so much but nowadays it’s so cheap. I don’t know a single person who does not have a team under 100. The game back then you had to work incredibly hard for a 101 card. Now they give them out for practically free. And don’t get me started on inflation. Remember when buying a 107 costed like 800 million now it’s only like 2 million. They give out cash so easy and I’m just ginna put it out there it oh to win. A minor issue for me is that you play terrible teams with terrible ai. I win 11 to zero against Extreme difficulty. Do not buy any transactions in the game it’s a rip off I have a completely free 123 over team at the time writing. Also the game could get a face lift, I play in my iPhone 11 mainly but when it dies I play on my old iPad Air from like 2016 t max everything 60 fps just fine. It wouldn’t kill preformed to make the game look nice. Overall four starts. Everything else is good. This is the best Football (Soccer) game on the mobile market. It has its flaws but it 9999x better than the next best option.

Overall I feel that this game is complete. It has almost anything a player could ask for, and is relatively easy to grind due to the constantly updating events. However, through playing the game I have discovered some slight bugs, and some off screen features. The main one is playing with the ai. When doing a match against the ai, all a player has to do is score once, pass back to their keeper, and then run across the field for the rest of the game. I have noticed that by doing this, the ai never tries to attack the player of the ball, and one can just sit their until the time runs out, winning 1-0 with little skill used. Secondly, when in a league tournament I had noticed that the forfeit button was off of the screen, but still accessible to click. This could be very bad for new players who have never been in a league, and are confused on what the button means, due to them not seeing the actual full button. Finally, I feel that the matchmaking is quite well done in division rivals, where each player is put up against a relatively even opponent. Overall it is a great game mode, and I am quite happy that it is in the game. Overall I give the game a 4/5 stars due to the minor bugs, and the game play being incredibly smooth.
