Heatman Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I just came across this news right now on Bleacher Report about FIFA 15 server shutting down officially. In my opinion, it's one of the most phenomenal editions of the game. Did anyone see it coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor1911 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I heard of this news somewhere, so not an unexpected news for me. I had played this game just after passing from my college. FIFA 14 and 15 will always have special place in my heart. The later editions are good, but nothing much offered in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know or have all the details as to why they (FIFA) had to shutdown the game server. I think I'm going to dig more now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I can't even remember if I played it or not, to be honest. My first ever FIFA game was FIFA 13 and I ended up getting that quite late because the game was already out when I got my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, I didn't have Xbox Live Gold back then either so couldn't play online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I saw the news just recently after you shared me the link, I read through it and I discovered its true. EA wants to get rid of older version games to move on to new franchise FIFA versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously - I don't really if there any hard still having the FIFA 15 server still up and running with the release of FIFA 22 as well. Are they trying to free up their game servers or just trying to push all gamers on the FIFA 15 server immediately into the 22 server? Who knows?

Empire Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 FIFA 15 was the last of the fifa golden era in my opinion. It was simple. No random special cards. No grind aspect, just fun. I will miss the Musa , Doumbia, Emineke Triangle. Never played any series anyway and I do not care for it 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 It was one of the last decent enough Fifa games and I used to love playing Pro Clubs as an inverted RW cutting in on my left foot and shooting. I also used to love making diagonal runs between the LCB and LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Playing all FIFA editions, and until FIFA18 it worked fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycrab Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I'm surprised that EA keep the servers for any of their s̶p̶o̶r̶t̶s̶ online gambling games open for more than a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe EA FIFA game series developers did that simply to attract people looking up to newer versions. Because if they allowed FIFA 15 running for long, many won't upgrade to newer versions they'll simply stuck on the older versions. So they know what they are doing, they have business strategies to drive sales for every new game series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifa 22 is going to be out in a couple of weeks so it won't be that long of a wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
