Re: You know what
Crosses are overpowered as usual, but I dunno what you mean with the lobbed thru pass; that's been heavily nerfed thsi year, on top of already having been nerfed in fifa 20.
I made a build with 90+ in long pass vision and curve and put on lob pass+ playstyle and my LB+Y passes were still dog-slow and got cut out by the defence basically every time.
I think - not even being exaggerating - I've sent someone thru with with LB Y pass maybe... 10 times in total in fifa 24 ? And I've played 400 games.
As for crossing its OP for sure but it's more to do with the game mode. The fact that there's a second player making a better run than AI would in a 1v1 situstion means the Cross becomes a viable option for a goal. (In 2v2 co op for example crossing is better than in 1v1.)
What I'd do to nerf this is two things.
1. Make ai defenders and gk better at cutting out far post crosses.
2. Add in some kind of button modifier to make crosses curl in. Like, LB + X. Or something. And attach a higher fail rate in general to crosses.
3. I also like the idea of making crosses manual because it feels like the lock on to one zone (this also works against the crosser; I.e try crossing from the goal line near the corner flag... its a bad place to cross and gk just catches it. But why can't I aim from the byline to say the edge of the box? Crosses just always go to the far post area no matter where you stand)
