Is FC 27 worth buying at launch, or should I wait for a sale?

I'm trying to decide whether to get FC 27 now or just wait a few weeks.

Every year I tell myself I'll wait for reviews, then I end up buying it anyway lol. My main thing is gameplay. I don't care that much about new menus or slightly different animations if the actual matches feel the same.

For anyone who's already looked into it, what are you checking before buying? Career mode, Ultimate Team, online gameplay, or something else?

I always wait for proper PC performance reports. A game can look great in trailers and still run terribly on my setup.

Career mode is what matters to me. If you're mainly playing Ultimate Team, your priorities will probably be different.

Waiting for reviews is sensible. Waiting for a sale is even more sensible if you're not desperate to play on day one lol.

Check which edition you're buying too. Don't pay extra for bonuses you genuinely don't care about.

Exactly. Also check the actual requirements against your PC instead of assuming last year's settings will transfer perfectly.

I'm waiting until there's enough footage of full matches. Ten seconds of cinematic gameplay tells me basically nothing.

So the conclusion is that we're all waiting, except the people who already preordered.

Pretty much. Buy it because the features interest you, not because everyone online says you need it immediately.
