The name
itself creates an adrenaline rush right through your veins. For all the FIFA
fans out there like me, this blog’s for you guys.
EA
Sports’ FIFA 14, as we all know is a sports association football simulation
video game. Released in November 2013 in all gaming consoles and PC, it paved
its way to an amazing demand in the market. As usual, I got the game form a
friend of mine for my PC and am still playing my career mode.
Lionel
Messi returns as the main cover star for all regions on the global cover,
having been on the cover for FIFA 13 and FIFA Street.
The name
FIFA is a craze among boys of our age (though not for some boys). Many even
pre-order the game before its release. I didn’t get the original game so downloaded
the crack from skidrow and started playing. I faced and am still facing
problems in the gameplay due to the crack. Those who have played FIFA 14 using
skidrow crack will understand what problems I’m talking about.
Well
here are some problems that I faced:
- .After playing around “two” or “two and a half” games, the whole screen starts shaking as if the camera is moving to and fro every second.
- In career mode, there’s no yellow card. Even if you just try to contain the ball from your opponent, you might get a red card rather than just a foul or a yellow card.
- The online gaming option isn’t there, but I guess it’s fair because if it was there, then why would someone spend so much money in buying the game when he could have all that just downloading the crack.
The FIFA graphics took a vast leap from “FIFA 10” to “FIFA 11”, then again a bit improve in ’12 and ’13. Having played all the versions, I can say that ’13 was much better in aspects like:
1.
Graphics
(as I played it in an “Alienware” laptop in 3D)
2.
Ball
control (quite realistic)
3.
Improved
celebrations (as the concept of celebrations started in ’11 only so it took
time for improvement)
4.
Practice
Arena ( as this was completely new in FIFA)
5.
Career
mode (more realistic)
The
above mentioned aspects were all continued in ’14. With Neymar Jr. in Barcelona
,Gareth Bale in Real Madrid and Mesut Ozil in Arsenal, the game couldn’t have
been any better.
The game
starts with a really inspiring video giveing you goosebumps and a spirit to
play football- “The game we love, the game we live for”. (quoting a line from
that video)
The most
excitement in FIFA among us is the multiplayer option. Playing tournaments with
friends in the multiplayer option connecting 4 gamepads, even a one-on-one
match against a friend is really hilarious. From the kick-off whistle to the 90
min whistle the excitement in you is simply amazing and this can only be felt
by a true FIFA gamer. Am telling you guys, the feeling when you score either a
90 min or a 120 min goal against a friend which gets you the lead is something
like you never imagined.
The game
contains over sixty stadiums, including thirty-two real-world venues. New
additions include La Bombonera in Buenos Aires, Goodison Park, England's first
purpose-built football stadium and the Donbass Arena in the Ukraine, home of Shaktar
Donetsk. Barcelona's Camp Nou, which was removed from FIFA 13 due to
licensing reasons, has been included.
The
music in the background (soundtrack) while you are on the menu is a great
feature by the developers. The FIFA commentators:
1.
“Clive
Tyldesley” and “Andy Townsend”
2.
“Martin
Tyler” and “Alan Smith”
These four add a wonderful
excitement in the game by their commentating. I’ve noticed a wonderful thing
about this commentating last December which I would like to share. I opened the
game on 25th of December and started playing kick-off when the commentators
were like, “Hello and welcome to this exciting match on the day of Christmas”.
Not just that, it happened again when I opened the kick-off on 1st
of January when they were like, “A very Happy New Year to all of you”. In both
these times I actually paused the game and the word springing in my mind
constantly was “How???”. Later I realized that the game is synced with the date
on your computer once you save. That’s a really good thing about FIFA 14.
This was for the FIFA fans and I guess
even the non-FIFA fans will also start kicking-off once they read this.
Hope you guys enjoyed reading this
post. Feel free to point out any mistakes and wait for my next post.
