Much to like, much to regret
There is much to like about this game... but also much to regret. This review is limited to the offline play as I have no interest in the online multi-player part of the game.Besides the "campaign" component of the game, called the Journey, FIFA 18 offers two offline modes, including an arcade-like instant Kick Off mode, and a Squad Battle as part of the Ultimate Team (offline) mode, which allows you to manage a team and move them through various matches and tournaments. In both modes, the spectacle of the game is amazing--the ambiance of the sportscasters, the graphics, and the uniforms/kits make it almost like watching the real thing--except you get to control some of the game. However, despite there being many recorded responses, after playing the game for about 10 hours, you can easily predict and voice the running commentary at the same time as the announcers ("Well, his teammates aren't too happy." "It's bound to prey on his mind for the rest of the match." "That's flown over the crossbar!") At that point, it stops enhancing the game and instead reinforces the canned nature of the commentary.I do not agree that the gameplay completely fails to mirror actual football/soccer games. There are a lot of problems, however--even when you have switched your control to a specific player. There are moments when you cannot use even the limited set of operations (e.g., slide tackle) despite the fact that you are supposedly controlling the player. Since the game doesn't normally allow players to run into each other (but does allow unpenalized fouls on the goal keeper), the moment the AI takes over even while you supposedly are controlling the player has the comical effect of making the player run literal rings around another player--not getting close enough to interfere with their attack.Also, while corner kicks--in real-life gameplay--create big risks/opportunity for scoring, only one time in a hundred has anyone scored in a corner-kick situation. It's easy to block out the opponent, while the opponent easily blocks out most attempts to exploit the situation.The AI is far from perfect and your own team is, by necessity, partly run by the AI. When switching players manually, the AI does not even attempt to understand why you moved players in one direction. When your attention moves to another player, they run right back in whatever direction they originally were running. The effect on the opponent team is even worse since it is 100% run by the AI. The AI performance often gives the appearance that the ability of the opponent changes dramatically when you do better. The only way to fix this is to change the many game settings offered, such as speed and acceleration, goalkeeper ability, shot error (but with the significant exception of AI defense abilities, which never seem to fail).There are two areas that do not match real-life football. One of these is the vertical angle at which shots are made, which seems to vary from 5 degrees to 60 degrees, whereas the typical goal shot in real life will be 0 to 30 degrees. This aspect of the game gives the impression that US-Americans programmed the game for gridiron field goals, with an elevation of 10 to 30 feet in the air. The result is that more shots than not will go flying completely over the goal. I can't wrap my head around why this bug has not been fixed yet.The second bug has to with how often the AI will allow your own players as well as the totally AI-controlled players to be offside. This happens at least three times as much as it ever does in normal play on a field/pitch by any set of players over the age of 10.My attempts to correct for the strange effects of the AI, by using game settings, works for the instant match Kick-Off mode. Unfortunately, you cannot adjust the relevant game settings for the Squad Battle. So, you're stuck with all the problems of the AI for Squad Battles. I haven't decided whether it is worth starting any more squad battles given how unplayable those are. I am teetering on giving up on FIFA for that reason and changing over to its well-known competitor.Good arcade game, interesting story gameplay for The Journey. Irritating AI that can be corrected for in the arcade mode, but makes for an unplayable offline Ultimate Team game mode. If you are looking for an arcade-style game, wait for the price to get under $20. If you think you'll like The Journey too, $30 might not be too much. I would only pay over $30 if I were going to be playing online matches every weekend.
