Many of you may already know what FIFA mods and patches are and how to play with them, but for those that have no idea, this article will sort the matter for you. It is no secret that FIFA titles severely lack in certain departments and the focus is normally on features most players don’t want to use or see. So, how do you get the features you want in your favourite FIFA game? Simple, you add them! Thanks to the magic of modding, it is super easy to play FIFA exactly the way you want. Here’s why mods and patches are the way to play FIFA, and any other game if possible, and how to go about it.
What is a Mod/Patch?
A game mod is, simply put, a package/file that modifies the vanilla game. It can be anything, from gameplay to graphical changes and the idea of mods is to enhance the gameplay experiences. Graphics can include kits, player faces, banners, balls, boots, adboards or 2D faces aka minifaces.
Patches are essentially the same thing with just minor changes in what they do and are also a part of mods. These mods are created by modders of the gaming community who pursue modding as a hobby and do it out of the love of the game and the fanbase.
FCB17 Facepack #4 🔥
Includes all previous face updates + 18 re-added EA faces 😁🙌https://t.co/LL1eu40xuJ#FIFA21#genericgenocidepic.twitter.com/zEowLU8qxs
Orlando Pirates in the South African league (will be better when badges actually show in game!) or New Zealand if you're looking for clean black and white kits. The skull and cross bones are sick. Take notes EA.: FifaCareers. FIFA 21 Concept: Kit Builder. Unfortunately this will never happen. I have a feeling it will but only available for a create your own club feature, not existing clubs. I’ll even bet that this will be the “big feature” they advertise.

How Do They Work?
Mods can either improve the mechanics of the game or provide visual enhancements. Take FIFA for example. There are gameplay mods out there that help in improving the AI level and creating a more natural flowing match. Some mods focus on the mechanics and help tweak the AI for the boardroom, players, youth academy, etc. You can also find mods that do it all in one single package.
Then you have the visual mods that help give you skins, overlays, tournament themes and more. You can even get player faces, boots, kits, etc. to make your gameplay more immersive. Installing mods is super easy and all you need is some basic knowledge in how they work and how to install them. Please note that mods can be used only on PCs and do not work on consoles.
Mods are script and data files that are installed into the game so that the game can read them and change the way it works. You need a software to install and run mods and that is Paulv2k4 Modding Tool. Install the software and link it to your FIFA application and you’re good to go! Each mod needs to be installed by the software before you can run your game and that will take some time to occur. Let’s just say, the installation is long enough for you to go spend some time over at luckynuggetcasino.com, but hopefully your computer is kind to you!
