FIFA 23: guide to the new understanding system on FUT

The new understanding system on FUT of FIFA 23 has revolutionized, and not a little, the style of play and in this guide we will go to learn its secrets

The success of FIFA 23 coins, recently released on the market, had long been announced. The wide audience enjoyed by the title of Electronic Arts is renowned and every year makes FIFA one of the most purchased video games. While it may seem like the same video game to many, developers bring in (or at least try) every year improvements to diversify the user experience. One of the main novelties of this year concerns the new system of understanding between the various players in FUT mode.







This mechanic, introduced a few years ago now, has always been a finger in the side for many. Most of the users buy the game to play with friends and relatives, thus dedicating themselves to local multiplayer. This is also due to one mechanics, that of the understanding, not too clear and which can often act as a limiter to FUT mode. That's why with FIFA 23 some important news have arrived that we are going to explain to you in this guide to the new understanding system on FUT.

Some goodbyes in mechanics

The first change made is the disappearance of the team agreement. The developers have in fact thought of eliminating this parameter, that is the numerical value that ranged from 0 to 100 that represented it. However, this was not the only "elimination" to come with the new system. Precisely in this regard, Links have also been deleted, that is, the red, yellow and green lines that represented the links between players on the squad screen.






It will therefore no longer be necessary for the players to be deployed close to each other to help increase the understanding. This solution was in fact very limiting and binding and did not allow us to freely position our players. Now instead it will be enough that they are deployed in the starting formation to increase the understanding. For example, a goalkeeper will have a positive impact on an attacker's chemistry as long as he is from the same club, has the same nationality or plays in the same league.

Representation of the FIFA 23 understanding on FUT and how to increase it

Although the team agreement has now disappeared and also the links that were going to affect the various owners, that of the players remained, albeit completely remodeled. The latter in fact is equivalent to a parameter that can vary between 0 and 3 for each player and is indicated by three small diamonds on the card in the lower left part. Each colored diamond represents 1 point, so 2 blue diamonds will equal 2 points for that player.

However, although with the red links the player took a small stat penalty, a deal of 0 to FIFA 23 will not have a negative impact. That player simply won't get a stat boost. From this it follows, of course, that a higher level of understanding will ensure a greater increase in statistics. This increase will only change some parameters based on the style of understanding applied to the card in question. For more details we advise you to consult the tables at the end of the article.



Increasing this level, however, is not exactly easy, at least until you get carried away with the mechanics. As mentioned in the previous section, the agreement increases the more players of the same club or of the same nationality or of the same league present among the 11 owners. For each of these parameters, the developers have established thresholds, or a minimum number of players, which allow you to unlock a diamond on the understanding. These thresholds are:




 1 Understanding2 Understanding3 Understanding
ahead Club  2 players4 players7 players
Nationality                 2 players 5 players8 players
Championship3 players             5 players             8 players                

Predictably, the more connected a player is to the other, the more effective their chemistry will be. Obviously, initially it will be very difficult to respect these parameters, both for a matter of "experience" and for the very small number of players in our possession. In this regard, we refer you to our guide to tricks and tips for playing FUT.  The coach can also contribute to the increase of the understanding, as he will be considered as a player in the calculation of the dreams of understanding relating to the league and nationality. On the contrary, the players who will start from the bench will have an understanding equal to 0 and the change of form and position during the game in progress will not affect the general level.

Beware of roles! - FIFA 23 New Chemistry System Guide in FUT

We talked about changing roles a little while ago for an important reason. A player who does not play his role in the starting formation will have an understanding equal to 0. Although this is not a problem as there are no penalties with this level of chemistry, the player out of position it will not contribute to the increase of chemistry of the other players. Putting a forward as a winger will not increase the number of players of the same nationality, club or league. A wrong role player will be depicted by an exclamation point instead of the rhombuses representing the agreement.




To overcome this problem, the "change role". This particular function will allow you to conveniently switch from the role played by the card in question to one or more alternative roles. Not necessarily a player will play a secondary role. However, some positions will always have at least a secondary one. To change among those available, the “change role” card will come to our rescue. This is unique and will allow us to vary roles, as long as it is available. We will therefore not be able to transform an attacker into a goalkeeper, but at most into a second striker.

Icons and Fut Heroes - FIFA 23 New Chemistry System Guide in FUT

Le Icons, as long as they are deployed in the right role, they will always have an understanding equal to 3. Also will count as 2 players in the calculation of the number of players of the same nationality within the rose. This allows us to more easily reach the threshold necessary for increasing a point of understanding.

Even the cards FUT Heroes, if deployed in the right role, they will have a bargain equal to 3. However these will count as 2 players in the calculation of the number of players of the same league and 1 in that of players of the same nationality.
