FIFA 23 Feedback & Reviews

I have played this game since the fut 13. I have never hated any fifa game this much. I always loved that we can counter attack and that was my style of play. This year the game sucks. No more precision passing. Conter attacking. Can't play fast. Skills could be slow. Overall gameplay seems like a drag...hurts my head honestly

Every year it got worse and worse…this is the last fifa and the worst

Bro, i work harder playing this game than when i’m at work…who the F wants a video game that you have to work so hard while playing. EA got so fixated on making a game that mimics real life and destroyed quality of play…everything is slow, every touch is a foul, and a yellow card

Worst game I’ve ever played, nothing works at all, the game just isn’t enjoyable anymore like it used to be, please don’t consider buying this game, it’s a waste of money

Slightly better than 22,do the ones that makes these fifa games actually play them before they are released, a woman referee in the mans game nooooo that doesn't happen maybe in 2025, player career mode your defense running away from the opposition when they are attacking there's not one year they have released a fifa game without any hiccups, seriously needs looking at in the updates if they work because they never worked in fifa 22.

I cannot find Goodison Park anywhere on fifa, if there was a way I could shorten down the results by selecting my team and searching that way. Can this be resolved as soon as possible thanks.

I ask this every year. Will you please make career mode enjoyable and worthwhile. I have just finished a season on Fifa 23 player career and the team that finished bottom was played 38 won 2 drawn 4 lost 32 yet the manager wasn't sacked. Why have you never added the feature where AI managers can get sacked. This ruins the game. Fifa 22 I played 15 seasons and all the managers were still at their clubs. Managers should age, retire and get sacked. Also add in generated mangers for people who do go 15 plus seasons. This would be a game changer. Also, what's going on with the player actions?? Request transfer or loan, that's it?? Seriously. Where is the option to request a contract negotiation, have a cutscene meeting with the manger to discuss this and other things like, discuss your importance, your happiness, request to be a captain, add this and you will have an excellent career mode because still even in Fifa 23 the career mode is terrible. Also, lack of cutscenes on PS4, the PS4 is more than capable of cutscenes. You did it 4 years ago with the journey. Another feature to add, in Manager career add the ability to watch the game rather than have to play it, and I mean in real time, not some dots on a radar and be able to shout instructions to players. You can do it, this will make the career mode the best ever on a console. 1 more thing, add the ability in player and manager career to speak with individual players/teammates, build bonds that kind of thing. And please for the love of asking, change the trophy celebrations, its always been the same and 1 player holding the trophy, pass it around the team, and Where's the manager in the celebrations. Jeez, hire me to your team, I'll make your career mode a game changer.

Worst game ever, can't even start it on PC, one week with anti cheat problems and now it doesn't want to start.

The game is fun so far for sure. However, gameplay can be a bit choppy when online playing another user in a match. For example once a shot is going to be blocked or missed, the gameplay stutters a bit and this happens a bit in other gameplay situations as well. This game has always been so good because the physics and reaction is usually smooth as silk so the choppy gameplay has definitely been disappointing!

This is the worst FIFA I've ever played, tell me why in penalties you have to wait for the circle thing to go green otherwise you will miss the penalty does that make sense to you? And the players take a few seconds to take a shot or to even pass the ball although the ball is literally on their feet

Games utterly broken just want a slow paced realistic feeling game not thus bs where a defender make runs from his their half to my goal and score the same near post goal everytime then you can't touch the ai for long spells you get the ball then they get it straight back of you then it takes you half a pitch length just to take it for 2 seconds then they have it back of when you clear have the ball and they give it a phantom kick legs don't move but then it's punted straight at their team mates and headers not touch anyone's heads but magical start going in the back of my goal and don't get me started on fut.

Stupid game , I’ve never seen like this before , nothing is working well , you can’t attack and you can’t defense even if you have the best players in the world , all the passes are wrong , all the throws are wrong , the goalkeeper for me is the worst and for the opponent is the best , I can’t imagine playing this game anymore , do something EA .

I have actually been enjoying the game, playing mostly career mode so far but I have one big issue: I play keeper I’m career and it’s near impossible to complete a game unless you keep a clean sheet. I have played with the sliders so the opposition actually makes runs and takes shots on goal, but the player rating system doesn’t adequately reflect performance. Make a save, maybe a 0.1-.2 boost, but a goal? Minus .6 or more. So even if I’ve made 3-4 saves earlier in the game if the opposition scores I’m back to square one, and to avoid substitution the game requires you to hit 7.0. My recommendation would be to remove the ability to have the keeper subbed by the A.I manager, or reconfigure the player ratings to reflect performance more accurately. But of course this is EA, this problem has existed for at least 4 years now, so I’m sure nothing will be done and I’ll be left having to sim to complete games

Only play career mode on legendary and above- defending in this game is the worst I’ve ever seen it the AI scores the same goal every single game , not one player I select does what there either R1 to press or try to switch players it’s the slowest I’ve ever seen it literally without fail I conceded the exact same goal it’s so boring and repetitive, the passing as well Jesus Christ it’s the worst I’ve seen in 6 years , needs a serious update to this game!

Every year you somehow manage to make this game more arcade like. I mean just give us a realistic slow paced option, how real football is played. Sliders aren't enough to fix this. I get that fut players might like more fast paced games but come on a large number of fifa players simply stick to offline like me. Its just how we enjoy it. The players move around and the ai plays like the world's gonna end in 5 minutes and they must go crazy and run around in an unnatural manner. I swear if there was any other half decent option I'd shift from fifa. The only reason I buy is not because I like your games, I like football too much.

Every single day i am having trouble with connecting to the servers. Leaves midgame and just constant problems with EA generally..

Seems a good game, however, on career mode, still only allowed 3 subs?

I have to load the game twice everytime ai want to play, as it glitches out and crashes as soon as the updates and hospitality settings are pulled through. Every single time! This is one Xbox one. Please fix

Lol I almost bought that game. Reading the comments made me give up. I can't believe these guys keep ruining the game... I am fan of Career Mode and the only feedback about it here is negative feedback ... fk fifa not gonna waste money on that trash.

on ultimate team when swapping 2 players round it says no more substitutions allowed

This game give no advantage to players on the attack. AT ALL. When you receive the ball you literally CANNOT move. The amount of times I’ve been tackled through the back try to pass the ball is ridiculous. Also, passing is broken as well. Driven passes go nowhere near your player and double tap through balls fly past all your players. I understand the game just came out but this is outrageous. The amount of games I’ve lost to unrealistic tackles and goals is annoying. And for the love of Pete NERF CUTBACKS

GamePad setting.....why for God sake if I change the button function for attacks it also change the button function for the defence???????

It possibly the worst fifa to date. I play ultimate team and this year you can not pass properly my players seem they are like stuck in the mud through ball is broken never goes where I put it to. The game is a actual joke and is designed for pro and YouTube players never for casual. We need some sort of update to make these changes.

FIFA 23 is the worst I ever played !

1 - I am playing Manager mode and the defense is a F*cking joke. When the AI team do a counter attack, I am selecting on Central Defender to block him and the other CD is just running to random directions. So if I miss the block, there is no more player to stop the attack and it is always happening. Conceding easy goals because the goalkeeper is just doing nothing to catch the ball.

2 - Most of time all players are very close to each others, so it is very hard to build an attack. When the AI is pressing, it is often impossible to dribble or do fast short passes to keep the possession because of input lags.

3 - It is almost impossible to win the ball when AI team is in danger area (illlogical passes and dribbles)

4 - Animation bugs in cutscenes (Ball always rotating in players hand, players glitching horribly,...)

5 - Impossible to edit game with Cheat Engine to give players better face, haircut, body type, potential,...

6 - Impossible to run the game with Reshade to get better visual

It's like EA decided to ruin everything. This game need a QUICK and QUALITY UPDATE !

DEAR EA AND FIFA DEVS.
this was your only chance to keep your fanbase after the FIFA contract expires and you did not only do badly but you somehow managed to make your game even worse so you have stuttering problems, input lag, and you ruined dribbling and defending so why would we trust you to make a quilty game when the last quilty one was FIFA 14 and you know what FIFA 22 wasn’t bad either but you managed to make the WORST FIFA game ever

this game is horrible EA's devs are so bad that they can't even recreate the same game. the game has stuttering problems despite me exceeding the requirements in-game. there is a 5-15 second delay on input and with the game already stuttering it makes it even worse I tried all the fixes I could find but nothing worked my game is running perfectly well on 90fps but still the game stutters like hell, Oh you thought I was done? LMAO they ruined the excellent dribbling system and somehow SOMEHOW managed to FUCK UP defending, even more, I hope that FIFA ends this shity as partnership and makes its own game so I can leave this dumpster fire of a game so I can make FIFA 23 in 24h easily and a whole ass company like EA can't make the same game in a year and make a game that is still the same game from FIFA 14 and not only that if I were working from FIFA 14 as a checkpoint I wouldn't even need a whole ass day to make this shity game I would strongly urge you to not buy this game it is an absolute dumpster fire and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy to be forced to play this shitty ass game now for my rating 1/10 *IF I PLAYED A GAME CALLED SHIT IT WOULD PROBABLY BE BETTER*

Really disappointed so far with Fifa 23 I mainly play career mode and have done for the last 8-10 years and usually always enjoy it there’s so really good things about this years Fifa However last 2/3 years I’ve been playing on Ultimate and This year I struggle on Legendary , I am happy that it’s challenging however certain things like the way the Ai can just easily score goals within 3 passes is ridiculous and theres no way to defend against it no matter what I try they always find a way to score on majority of attacks another point is trying to play in behind the Centre Backs catch up with too much ease no matter the pace of the players or how good the run is they always can’t up and block the shots and another point is some reason it seems scripted that the Ai score just before half time every game , these all seem like simple things to fix and make a terrible game very good

Sadly this is the worst Fifa ever.
I don’t know what on earth has happened because I took part in the Beta and the final stages was absolutely spot on gameplay. However, now it is released, it is a completely different game.
Defending is frustrating. Players run faster with the ball than without. Most of my results are scores like 8-3. Poor, extremely frustrating game

Fifa 23 is literally the worst one you've made

Hello good night EA.
I come to give my feed back according to the 10 hour trial, and I was very disappointed to know that the pro clubs mode does not have crossplay, I only play fifa because I can play together with 11 friends in pro clubs. I hope you pay attention to this situation, otherwise it will be one less player in the fifa community unfortunately.

It would be so much better if you were able to transfer your ea account from your Xbox to your PlayStation and keep your coins, team etc. Because I have logged in on my new PlayStation with my ea account and I need to start over and build a whole new team. It’s very boring because I will need to do everything that I have already done and it will cost me a lot of time. Please fix this.

Games a joke 4 -1 up crusing in career mode WBA Vs Sheffield Wednesday, 84 minutes final score 4-5 it's ridiculous glad football manager is comming to PS5 as EA have ruined this with there desire to have unrealistic amounts.of goals.

I feel there is many fun/interesting players who has been removed from the game because the club they play in aren’t in the game anymore. Or players who have made transfers to teams/leagues outside FIFAs rosters get removed.

For example Olympiacos have fun players like James Rodriguez and Marcelo.
Other examples are Arturo Vidal, Kostas Manolas, Dani Alves, Andres Iniesta etc. (The list is long)

Why don’t you put these kind of player as FREE AGENTS at least so we still can use them in career mode for example? it would be fun if you could sign experienced and famous players to your career mode even if their real team is not in the game.

I think it’s an easy thing to add because these players have already been in previous FIFA games. More players to choose from is better than less!

Hey fifa 23. I have early access, and Marco Reus, image is completely wrong, it’s embarrassing. It looks like a create player it’s awful. I do my career mode with BvB and that’s pitful. He’s been one of the most prominent players for years and formerly on a cover!!

Hey Guys,

I have 2 questions for the new FIFA 23 game based on what my experience is for FIFA 22 currently (using Career Manager mode):

1. Will there be a FIFA Club World Cup competition in place like what is seen in real life football? All other competitions are there which coincides with the current FIFA club formats (e.g. UEFA Champions League, Super Cup, FA Cup etc) but not seeing that particular competition which makes the game somewhat outdated. Updates have not been successful in this demand either

2. Will there be real life visual simulation format instead of the ping-pong version seen for the games played in simulation vs. actual? The option is there to play the game especially in Manager mode but not in simulation as its restricted to just the ping pong version (which is an upgrade from previous versions but more can be done to actually see the players in live motion).

If you are unable to answer or assist, it would be appreciated to kindly pass on the message to the EA Sports team for them to review and implement changes where needed.

Thanks!

Now that Ted Lasso's fictional team is in FIFA 23, could Esperion from the manga/anime Aoashi get included also?

Only thing I have to say about fifa 23 is god am I glad this is the last title with ea sports. ea sports is the absolute worst gaming company in the entire industry. I have been playing this game since fifa 10 and it has gotten worse and worse and worse every single year. fifa 22 is a literal joke of a game. And just like the past like 7 titles or so, I am sure the new fifa 23 is going to be another copy and paste. Except even they can't get copy and pastes right. The new game is always somehow worse. Terrible input lag, horrible match making, FUT is just a joke with the amount of OP cards they just hand out, passes 90 percent of the time go to places you werent intending. Don't even get me started on the abundance of rules that ea sports fail to understand. Calling players offside when the ball isnt even deliberately played to them, calling advantage play then giving a red card, calling offsides when the ball is played from your own half, calling halftime when there is a clear goal scoring opportunity, the maximum extra time seems like its 1 minute(even then it feels more like 10 seconds), ea sports is just an absolute joke. Do not waste money, just wait till fifa 24 when people who ACTUALLY know the game of football make the game. just look at how battlefield 2042 turned out. just a joke. I highly doubt they will even read these feedback comments. Here's some feedback, put some freaking effort into the game, you cheap invertebrate vermin.

Overall the game has improved, l love playing career mode. Ronaldo and other fast players used to run with the ball through defense , and they have improved the way they defenders run and the defense line. Free kicks are more realistic, and goalkeepers positioning needs a bit improvement.

FIFA22 the worst of the worst I have been buying this game for the past 8yrs but this is my last purchase, the game is bad I mean everything is bad, pass goes to a wrong direction, defending is just worst controlling the ball worst nothing about the game is worth any penny if you are reading this don’t waste your money buying 23 is all bull they will never upgrade the game rubbish

The cost of a player should not only be influenced by their rating and contract term, but also the selling clubs financial situation. For instance Frankie de Jong would have sold for around £56m in real life this summer, yet in game he’s worth over £120m….it would add a bit more realism to the transfer market, and make managing the budget actually important. If the club is low on funds and has a star player to sell, they might accept a considerably lower offer than their market value.

Also as this is the last FIFA ever, you could keep career mode fresh by allowing custom kits for all teams in the second season and beyond.

Goalkeepers positioning need fixing

Career mode is great only things that should be added is club World Cup as well as more fan chants, especially louder fans because I’m one of those people who like the atmosphere, I have the commentary off and I have the crowd sound blazing on

Are you guys serious? Messi had 11 goals and 14 assits last season Ronaldo had 24 goals and 4 assists. Messi ghosted almost the whole season and his downgrade is lower then Ronaldo’s? Are you sick In the head or what? When will FIFA stop meat riding Messi? Literally Ronaldo deserves to stay 91 and Messi 90 or 89 HES FINISHED ACCEPT IT AND ADMIT IT!!! Smh‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️HE CAN’T EVEN MAKE THE BALLON D’OR LIST AT 34! 34!!!!!!!

There is still a fundamental failure with FUT and the game at large that I cannot believe has not been fixed. The camera angle which you chose to play the game at should not in ANY way be effected by the stadium that you play in. It is a huge disadvantage to play away games in stadiums (often with bad lighting/shadows) and a different camera angle because the specific stadium does not have the same angle as your home stadium. All competitive FUT games should be played at FUT stadium, or if you make all stadiums camera angles match.

If this is not fixed for FIFA 23 (it is not fixed in the BETA) then there is absolutely no way I will continue to play this game. All video games are about angles and point of view - changing this for a player over something as simple as a different stadium is such a huge flaw in the design of the game. Many videos games have thousands of levels, arenas, stadia etc - but the camera angles do not change.

Please fix this most basic part of the game.

Ultimate team is solid with them giving me good players but when play division rivals, there no skill based match making, you go against people who sweaty there life out but you recently start playing fifa and are annoyed, I wish had skilled based match making, so people be the same level and when they get better and they harder opponents when you are a higher division and that for this will make people happy to ultimate team and keep spending without being frustrated about pro fifa player I hope you look at this feedback

Sincerely

Alfie

I feel there should be more help with free kicks because i find it very difficult to score them compared to fifa 22. Training is a bit laggy. Passing and shooting feels a lot harder too. Those power shots are ridiculous because you’ll end up kicking it for a throw in.

Career mode needs a few more animations and voices would be amazing. And maybe some better goals keeper kits for create a club.

Looks good, plays good but a bit frustrating.
Don't get me wrong i don't expect to score for fun but so many shots(from good players) either blaze wide,over or straight at keeper.
Can't decide whether keepers are too good or it just needs balancing .
And when playing crosses into box ur player rarely ever wins it.
Headers are ridiculously underpowered as well.

Good beta it’s the little details that make the difference it would be good if you could here the manager shout out instructions through the ps5 controller speaker especially when changing formation

The beta version of the game was so good I mean it. If u keep the balance until the end this fifa would be perfect.

Fix the infinite depth problem ASAP, plz. The backline should be way front, not coz of some guy running infinitely forward

Sometimes it fails to show the additional minutes given to extend the match and it will just be blank

when i hold triangle for the keeper to come out he always ends up booting the ball instead of controlling it. why is that?
