10 Video Game Exploits That Destroyed The Entire Experience
8. Magic Corner Kicks (FIFA 20)
Remember how easy it was to score in FIFA games from ten or fifteen years ago? Back then, you were basically guaranteed a goal if you took a strike from the corner of the penalty box, but in recent years, nifty tricks like this are no longer possible to do.
This has made FIFA less fun, but on the plus side, the series is now more skill-based and competitive. These days, you have to get creative if you want to score, rather than just holding down the shoot button from the edge of the opposing box.
But hilariously - and despite EA's best efforts - guaranteed goals have not been eliminated entirely, because in recent FIFA games (such as FIFA 20), all you have to do is exploit your corner kicks to smash the back of the enemy net every single time.
If you choose an in-swinging player with a high curve stat, aim towards the far post, and apply the maximum amount of shot power, the ball will sail into the box and fly past the helpless goalkeeper, turning all your corner kicks into free and easy goals.
Now obviously, firing a shot that homes in on the back of the net completely destroys the fair and competitive nature of a football match - especially in multiplayer - but then again, it's pretty funny to see the goalie just miss the ball entirely.
