FC 24 Awful online gameplay
I decided to give FC 24 a shot in March due to the game being discounted. There's a few issues with squad match ups, especially at World Class and above but for me the biggest issue is online.
I have a PS5 hardwired into Internet giving me a speed over 900 so I know this isn't the issue.
The issues firstly response times and always ending up with the defender furthest away from the ball. My defense can be walked through!
It doesn't get any better at the other end either. Players with speeds of 93, 95, 97 are slow and slow to accelerate. It's like watching slow motion in comparison to squad battles.
My biggest issue is passing though! I've had to quit on through balls online as 9 out of 10 crawl along directed towards the wrong player and are easily intercepted. My attack is set for my forwards to get in behind the defence and I can stick 10+ past world class in squad battles more often than not with killer through balls! Yet, take the same tactics online and it's shocking with slow inaccurate passing.
It's not just me though. The teams v mine all stick to direct passing themselves. I came up against an online team set up the same way and was 3-0 up before they left .. why? Every through balls they tried went straight to me!
Then we have match ups..... they're a joke! I'm level 10 rivals v an overall 97....my team at this time was 88 overall....ho hum! Then I got a 62 overall but the EA servers or matching or whatever decided to punish me and my team couldn't string 2 passes together! I was beginner with this bronze team clearly boosted to ultimate!
It's now been 5 weeks and I've finally decided to give the game up! It's a shambles the moment you get online BUT that's where all the good Ultimate Team stuff is! So, EA ... Why all these issues! It's almost May, the game gas even out over 8 months and it is still crippled by issues!
Oh, I almost forgot to mention players running THROUGH players! Magic balls passing THROUGH players! Plus the amazing somersaults and acrobatics when a player is tackled! 😂 Why are players doing triple back flips when tackled? Why, when my player was tackled did they get up, fall down, get up fall down ..you get it.. he was stuck in a loop! Plus I scored a goal online and my player couldn't celebrate as he'd merged with the goalpost and was just running on the spot then the game crashed and I lost my game. I was 2-0 up, 3 with that goal but your servers reset or whatever happened and I was then served with a notice for leaving the game! WTF? Since then I've been unable to get any semblance of a team in a failed attempt to win my third match for the online friendly premier League challenge where win 3 unlocks a TOTS pack.
It's just awful. Can I send you the game and receipt and get my money back.....
