    Spend over €50 and get €10 off. I got about 4 of them in the post a few weeks ago and this one was due to expiry on Sunday.

    Ahh, nice one. Are they Tesco specific? Or do they still accept the ones from Dunnes?

    Jesus pal I couldn’t tell you at all. I only got them in the post a few weeks ago and I usually wouldn’t spend €50 in Tesco in one go. I just gave mine to the woman at the customer service desk as that where I was paying and they had the games lined up there on display and she took it no problem so happy days .

    Anyone else having an issue with scoring.. I played a game whereby I'd 21 shots yet won one nil. No matter how many one on one's I had they'd send them wide or over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,916 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    Quite the opposite with goals. Finding they are flying in. Had a few games online. one ended 7-5, another 9-6... Plenty of games with over ten goals in it. It's a joke how easy they go in.

    Don't be too dismayed, it seems so far to be a carbon copy of last years iteration.

    Mine was delivered to parcel motel and I collected it, still showing as delayed, not delivered, on amazon website.

    I actually need to sell it as I don't need it anymore lol...

    You send yours to NI?

    I can't be bothered with Amazon any more if they aren't going to bother trying to hit launch dates for Irish customers!

    I normally get it quicker through NI. It didn't bother me but got another copy elsewhere.

    You can't expect to receive it on time from UK. Let's be realistic.

    Use Irish resellers if you need it on time.

    I'll prob use PM then for Friday deliveries from now on. I'll end up with it on Saturday :)

    Well, I was expecting the timeline to be more: Ship Thursday, An Post get it Friday/Saturday, they deliver it to me on Monday. But it only dispatched this morning, meaning I won't see it until Wednesday at the earliest. I just think it's a bit of a long wait.

    I'll pre-ordered lots of stuff from Amazon, with a Friday release date. I've never ever gotten them on the Friday, so wasn't expecting it this time either :)

    I took a quick look for you and CEX are only offering €45 cash for Fifa, you might find better luck elsewhere :D

    Two mega teams playing each other.

    Pogba, Dé Bruyne Salah etc and moaning about Van Dijk. Who he probably has in his team, too...

    OK.

    What's the gameplay like is there much of a difference from 20? Thinking about picking up but not going near the puzzle section. I just want to play a football game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Same game imo.

    It is all about having the right names in the right club.

    Being fair even ea cant introduce too many new features.

    What would you do? It's a football game in the end.

    Very little change this year. I know people say that every year but this is the first time I’ve thought it.

    Surprise surprise, reskinned and shipped out. Keep Ea'ing it EA, never change.

    It's the worst reskin ever for a FIFA.

    I didn't play 14 on the PS4 but 13 on that console was vastly different than 14.
    I'm assuming the PS4 version was similar with a new engine?
    Even if not they already said the next gen wasnt a different game so it was a money grab.
    At least NBA had a different team working on the next gen.

    Shame they had to remake the worst FIFA as well.
    It's been sliding badly since FIFA 13 imo when they move to 14 and changed the engine.

    I've played less and less every year since then and didn't buy 21 at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,845 ✭✭✭py2006


    I can't imagine there been much of a graphics update with the PS5 version either.

    I've resisted the urge myself, I would buy it straight away if it was any good but I'm hearing the same complaints. Might have to actually play another game now lol

    With regards training drills I'm assuming what's drill you use doesn't seem to make a difference as it just improves sharpness?. I.E no difference between a defender doing a defending drill Vs shooting ?
