Yeah the game has been horrendous and the worst thing is it is so hard to keep up with the others too unless I buy packs, because I have now been unable to qualify for WL for the last 3 weeks all while the stronger players just get better and better with more rewards. I am actually struggling to put together a decent team because I cannot qualify for any decent rewards.
At the end of FIFA 23 I was almost elite level I could go 20 games unbeaten and now I am unable to even get 1 win in the play offs.
I used to buy packs but I have stopped doing that simply because I do not accept the way the game has gone. I am sure there are many others who have stopped too.
I did try and just do what everyone else is doing and play that silly 71 depth nonsense and I admit it did get me more wins, but only up until a certain point and then I started to realise that I am not actually playing a football game anymore.
So, I went back to my usual tactics because I did not enjoy the silly 71 depth and I was facing teams with far better players who would just muscle the ball away from me and sprint off down the wing without me standing any chance of catching them.
99% of the goals are cutbacks and let me tell you now, if you do not have decent defenders, you have absolutely no chance of stopping those cutback goals.
The majority of teams you come across will have their team set up to play that way to get CHEAP cut back goals which are basically unstoppable if your team is even slightly inferior.
How on Earth am I supposed to play this game now? How am I supposed to put a team together when I have absolutely no chance of qualifying for the WL, it just became harder and harder after the first week I failed to qualify.
I cannot even do SBCS as I do not have enough fodder.
Not enjoying this game anymore and if this is really the direction the game is going then I really will stop playing and find a more enjoyable alternative. You have one more month to sort it out EA,
