But they also seem to be broken in parts, with some
hilarious and frustrating bugs resulting in keepers being dumbfounded around
the simplest of shots. The new patch addresses their effectiveness, and
seemingly fixes the latter too though we won't know for sure until we've had a
run with it.
Title Update #1 is already live for those playing FIFA 22 on
Stadia, and PC users on either Origin or Steam. It will be rolled out “at a
later date” for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S/X
versions, EA Sports said in the official FIFA forums.
EA Sports has added new goalkeeper animations to make it
happen. Keepers will now react more authentically, the FIFA 22 devs claim.
Lastly, EA has fixed an incorrect saving animation that keepers performed at
times when saving headers.
On paper, that last bit sounds like it might address the
problems we have faced personally. As you can see in the videos below, FIFA 22
goalkeepers tend to be completely clueless at times when it comes to the
simplest of headers. It's both frustrating and hilarious honestly, though
admittedly a lot more so of the former when it happens online.
The first big FIFA 22 patch will also improve refereeing.
High-velocity tackles will now cause more fouls. As will when players
purposefully collide with a goalkeeper holding the ball. Meanwhile, soft
physical contact across the pitch will lead to fewer fouls. And lastly,
reasonably-timed slide tackles will result in fewer penalty kicks.
For FIFA 22 PS5 gamers, FIFA 22 Title Update #1 also brings
a new controller setting that allows you to tweak the amount of Adaptive
Trigger Resistance you want. Hopefully, this will also alleviate concerns
around the DualSense's trigger springs that have been prone to failure and
breaking down.
