Note: Obligatory "this is just my opinion" disclaimer. FIFA 18 is not my admired FIFA. I just ambition to allotment this with you.

#1 A Big Connectivity Improvement

When we started FIFA 18, it seemed like the servers were assuming the aforementioned as 17 during a adequate period.

But it was harder to say because at the barrage of a game, EA were adequate affairs out all the stops to ensure a bland acquaintance for so abounding players at once.

November and December were not abundant months for us in agreement of connectivity, but things massively afflicted in January.

It's cryptic what in actuality changed. Did added servers get added? Was there a server ancillary amend for something? Perhaps one of the patches bigger the netcode? Who knows!? But aback then, the bold has been waaaay smoother and it performs bigger than FIFA 17.

That's not to say that adjournment is in actuality gone, you'll still acquire instances breadth you ambition to cull your hair out FIFA 18 Coins. But we've apparent a massive footfall in the adapted administration I and achievement it continues.

Note - I can abandoned allege about servers in Toronto.

#2 The Afterlife Of Crabwalking

L2R2 dribbling was badly important in FIFA 17. The accomplished akin of the bold was played by consistently spamming L2R2, and cat-and-mouse for an adversary to accomplish a arresting error.

It got banausic and players would coast aloft the angle in aggressive unrealistic ways.

Thankfully, L2R2 dribbling has been massively nerfed in FIFA 18. The artisan in actuality has its uses depending on the situation, but artlessly spamming it all bold will not do annihilation for you.

You can use it to analysis your runs, affected out opponents, and sometimes accomplish askew or crabbed movements, but you no best acquire the adeptness of the backtalk gods.

#3 Abutting Ascendancy Dribbling

The accession of abutting ascendancy dribbling has accidental and hardcore players alike.

With just 1 button and the analog stick, a amateur with abundant dribbling attributes can do a nice little about-face or actualize an added inch of amplitude that's bare for a abundant chance.

At the aforementioned time, School akin FIFA players can use this artisan to analysis their clip or cull of even added capricious feats.

It'll be absorbing to see how the artisan itself is counterbalanced traveling forward, but it's in actuality been a abundant accession in its admission year.

#4 Abounding Aback AI

FIFA abounding backs acquire consistently been academician dead. If you advanced them forward, they never defend. If you accrue them on balanced, they go up and don't appear back.

So for years now, we've had to accrue abounding backs on the break aback amateur instruction.

But FIFA 18 assuredly anchored this! In this game, you can in actuality use your abounding backs in advance and aegis at the aforementioned time, they're abundant bigger at transitioning amid modes of play.

Of course, this has led to accelerated fullbacks assertive meta, but that's one of those things that makes sense. Which top bank aggregation plays with a apathetic FB/WB in absolute life? That's not in actuality adequate for a lot of clubs and leagues, and there are abandoned a few exceptions.

What do you think? What did FIFA 18 get adapted in you opinion?

Btw, column is from my FUTBIN commodity so a few of you adeptness acquire apparent it already, just capital to accomplish abiding I get everyone's take. Cheers!
