FIFA 22: The Most Significant Gameplay Improvements & Changes

Today we're diving deep into some of the most significant gameplay improvements and changes on FIFA 22. I will discuss with you the exclusive features of Next-gen consoles and stadia besides the ones of current-gen consoles and pc.

HyperMotion Gameplay Technology

The new HyperMotion Gameplay Technology elevates every match in every more only on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and stadia. It combines two recent and machine learning. This allows us to enjoy a new different authenticity.

Advanced 11v11 Match Capture Technology

You will enjoy a Full-Team Motion with 22 professional footballers playing at a high-intensity level via the new xsens technology. We will have real human motion in new levels of detail within a match situation with over 4000 new football-informed animations added to the game.

Machine Learning

A new advanced 11V11 mocap with the power of the new consoles and machine learning has improved how players approach the ball on the pitch. You will enjoy over 8.7 million new frames of advanced match capture. That creates organic football realism across a variety of interactions on the pitch.

ML-Flow

ML-Flow is designed to help increase the fluidity and authenticity of ball approaches. ML-Flow's neural network algorithm is giving us a new ball approach animations in real-time, including stride adjustments, running cadence, pose matching, and transitions.

Full Team Authentic Motion / Animation Refresh

The 4000 new animations help improve immersion by adding variety to the gameplay experience, including set pieces, shooting, skill moves, passes, and more. Many animations were captured with the new advanced 11V11 match capture, and thus are exclusive to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and stadia.

Tactical AI

In attacking: with the new tactical AI, attacking players can make up to 6 times more decisions per second, better showcasing their nuanced player personality. This allows you to be more aware of your surroundings, perform smarter runs in build-up play, exploit spaces in the defense, and generally be in the right place at the right time.

In defending: your defenders can operate more as a unit with the new tactical AI, maintain the shape of the formation when moving across the pitch. That covers vacant spaces, mark each defending zone accordingly and bring more authenticity to their overall defensive shape.

With tactical ai, players have more personality in FIFA 22 than FIFA 21: 

Defensive work rates and fatigue have a significant impact on the defensive positioning of players.

Placing any player that is not a centre back in a centre back position will negatively impact their defensive positioning.

Competitive Settings / Master Switch

Here are the mandatory competitive settings that changed by the competitive master switch:

EA expanded the FIFA 22 competitive settings. While mandatory in some modes, the competitive settings are available for all players in every mode of FIFA if they wish to play with them.

Modes where competitive settings are always active: FUT rivals, FUT champions, online seasons, Co-op seasons & pro clubs.

Deeper Match Analysis

A new match facts screen with new visuals will help you campare performance between you and your opponent in the revamped summary screen. You can also get a more detailed breakdown of key aspects of play including possession, shooting, passing, and defending. The all-new player performance screen lets you know how each player has contributed to the team in the summary screen. As well as providing a detailed breakdown of their own overall performance in the possession, shooting, passing, defending and goalkeeping screens.

Kinetic Air Battles

All kinetic air battle animations were captureed together, with footballers performing those motions in real life. That's impressive. EA will synchronize player animations that work together, providing cleaner outcomes, improving the sensation of physicality, and maintaining responsiveness for each situation.

Explosive Sprint

Explosive sprint rewards timing and your intelligence on the ball, giving players a more noticeable acceleration when sprint (R2/RT) is pressed during the correct context. This mechanic changes the dynamic of 1 on 1 situation, allowing dribblers to explode forward and leave markers behind, or empowering defenders to catch up tp breakaway attacker. You could read more details about the new explosive sprint on EA Sports' official website.

Player Humanization

Inspired by the advanced 11V11 match capture, you will enjoy additional animations that enhance player humanization and help give more life to players on the pitch. You can see players talk each other on the pitch and watch teammates point to certain areas as they request passes that show a better understanding of match situations.

Immersive Match Experience

Enjoy new match mascots walking out with players during the entrance, a revamped intro sequence, new facial expressions refreshed player reactions, and new ball retrieval scenes.

True Ball Physics

EA used real-world ball data from football matches as a foundation for FIFA 22's ball physics. That will help you to improve the authenticity of ball speed, swerve air drag, air resistance, ground friction, and rolling friction.

Attacking

EA Sports will improve attacking on FIFA 22 including shooting, passing, dribbling, skills move, and many more.

New Attacking Tactics

The new attacking tactics will break down into two sections: Build up play and chance creation. This can enable players to have more control over playstyles and team behaviors.

Build up play is all about how your team performs when they have the ball in your own half. You can choose to slowly build attack or try to push up as fast as possible.

Build up play is composed of 4 tactics: Balanced, slow build up, long ball, and fast build-up. Read more about that on EA Sports' official website.

Chance creation is how your team will attack the opponent in their half and how they will create goals.

Chance creation is broken down into 4 tactics: Balanced possession, direct passing, and forward runs. Read more about that on EA Sports' official website.

Note: The new attacking tactics can be combined to create 16 distinct attacking tactics, each with its own benefits and styles of play.

Composed Ball Control

The new composed ball control animations are longer 2 touch animations that make controlling the ball more natural. This enables players to trap the ball in specific circumstances with more fluidity and precision both in responsiveness and visuals, allowing for the better setup of subsequent plays.

Players can perform these highly technical traps to better control air balls, strengthen shielding situations, and be more agile when controlling ground balls. Also, read more about the new composed ball control on EA Sports' official website.

Controlling the Ball

EA focused on improving the player's grasp over the ball, polishing many situations to more reliably obtain control of the ball, be it in the air or the ground. Here are more details about "Controlling The Ball".

Passing

EA focused on ground passes, Lob passes, and Lobbed through passing systems to better account for the context of play. Here are some of the most impactful changes made to passing in FIFA 22.

Here are the new new skill moves:

Four touch turn: hold L2/LT + flick back + flick rs back

Scoop turn fake: hold LS in the opposite direction after doing a forward scoop turn

First time spin: Hold L1/LB + R1/RB as the ball comes towards the player first time

Defending

EA Sports will improve defending on FIFA 22 including goalkeeper rewrite, defensive behavior, teammate contain, and many more.

Goalkeeper Rewrite

The new goalkeeper rewrite system uses over 600 animations, focusing on how the keeper makes saves, tips the ball over the frame of the goal. That shows agility on dives, punches the ball away on a corner, and overall keeper movement. The new system allows you to enjoy the different styles of world-class goalkeepers. Some keepers having cat-like reflexes, some being masters of anticipating shots, while others are extremely adept at rushing out to punch any ball to safety.

Defensive Behaviour

Here are more details about the balancing changes on the fair and predictable outcomes: Also, read more about the controls and personality:

Interceptions and Disrupt Interceptions

Player Switching

EA Sports have added 4 new options including icon switching and player rotation.

Icon Switching

This is a new form of switching that provides players with a surefire way to select their desired player. To activate icon switching, press R3 while defending and you will see UI elements above 4 of your players, each with a specific direction.

Directional Clearances and Technical Clearances

New directional clearances, which require more skill to successfully execute but also offer more control to players when compared to classic clearances.

More Tactics and Instruction Customization

Besides the new attacking tactics mentioned earlier, EA made additional changes to tactics and new instructions to further customize your playstyle. Free roam instructions for cdms allow for a deep-lying playmaker role coming closer to support the ball handler and also dropping deeper to receive a pass. Overlap instructions for center backs (only for 3 or 5 defender formations) allow the CB to overlap wide when in the correct position and provide attacking support to teammates.

Across the Pitch

We move now to one more important section about the realism of the game.

Bigger Goal Moments

EA increased the number of scenes, all with new player animations and cinematography. You can experience new crowd moments, camera angles, opponent's captain reactions, and unique player Celebrations incorporated into scenes. The improvements to big goal moments allow you to celebrate big goals with select players as they would in real life, with subs managers, and crowd, all involved in the spectacle.
