The next offshoot of the popular soccer simulation will soon appear with “FIFA 21”. Fans demand that the "momentum" be finally abolished. The developers have now commented on this.
- "FIFA 21 *" will be out in a few months.
- Fans have been complaining about the "momentum" for many years.
- The developers have now commented again on the allegations.
It is a mystery that has occupied “FIFA” players for many years: the so-called “ momentum ”. Is this actually part of the game or is it just a misconception? The developers are now used to the allegations, as the discussion about the topic comes up every year. Now, shortly before the release of “ FIFA 21 ”, they have spoken out again to clarify once and for all what is true of this mystery.
"FIFA 21": According to developers, there is no momentum
What is the “FIFA” momentum anyway? Die-hard "FIFA" players know the following scenario: In a match against an opponent, you are already in the lead with three goals in the first half. The victory seems almost certain. But suddenly mistakes happen that never happened before. The opponent scores one goal after the other and before you know it, you are behind and in the worst case even lose the game. For many players, such a scenario is the proof of the "FIFA" - momentum . The game is programmed in such a way that teams behind are given an advantage so that the matches remain exciting - at least that is the allegation.
EA has repeatedly denied the existence of momentum in the past. After a Twitter user raised the allegations again, the developers assured in a reply to the post that there was no “ scripting ”, “ handicap ” or “ momentum ” in the game.
As mentioned before, there is no 'scripting', 'handicap', 'momentum', and / or 'DDA' in the game.
We'll try to summarize some details in this thread:

In a thread they also explain that they would build the soccer simulation using different concepts from real soccer. According to the developers, these include the error system and the physics system , which should bring variety and authenticity into play. This is supposed to enable all possible results from real life to happen in "FIFA". You would endeavor to reduce the situations in the game that feel too random. For the gameplay there would be no need to incorporate programming like the Momentum in any case. The matches are varied enough.
