Does anyone know why the gameplay is so bad?

You seem pretty biased against the game more so than I am. I’ve never even seen you post before.  It might help to be more neutral in your view. But it looks like ea is looking into the reports from South Africa so doesn’t seem like a waste. I’ve even said it looks like there is a problem there. But that’s how you get something looked into. If nobody reports it like you suggest nothing will change. 

And everyone here has said they are not in South Africa, stop bringing that up

Unless you are claiming South Africa is ruining the game worldwide, in which case I will laugh my bloody head off at your latest excuse to protect the game

It’s about telling people not to report it. I am saying if people report it like people in South Africa ea will look into it and it will bring change. I am just trying to help people not take sides. 

No they won't because nobody from EA is here. They don't bother to read these comments, they have their stooges make excuses for them

They're too busy posting on twitter for why the latest SBC has failed and to expect compensation in 20000 years.

The thread about South Africa suggests otherwise as ea posted in the thread after enough people reported it. If say people in the uk like the op did the same I would imagine ea would respond to it too.  I would like to see change if it’s on eas end and it would help the op or anyone else having issues. 

I don’t know any to dm. If everyone is saying you don’t have connection issues and they don’t either in here you might be better off contacting support or your isp. To me it looks like you pushed the wrong button if what they are saying is true. My opinion doesn’t matter it’s how ea would see it though. 

As this thread has shown, Radioshaq is borderline trolling anyone who has GAMEPLAY issues by dismissing them as the users fault and referring to connection constantly, it's not connection it's the game that is horribly coded, the ai is horrible and does stupid thing after stupid thing yet Radioshaq shuts everybody down and blames their end.

I'm actually considering reporting them because it's becoming antagonizing.

What would the game coding have to do with people in Germany getting better gameplay?  The op brought that up in his opening post so to me he is referring to connection. If you disagree that’s fine maybe his connection is fine. But to say it’s not relevant is wrong. 

In that video to perez you linked a few posts ago. You can see you are holding x and before the pass you hit o. Which is a shot on goal.  While the ball is on its way you hit triangle for the through ball but  it was late. Now I might not be seeing it correctly or you might even have the buttons remapped but that’s what it looked like to me. 

The op is playing people in Germany not tha ai. 

Also I try to be neutral so I will give you an example and why you are wrong to tell people not to report it. 

Also I commend the op for sharing his videos even on the ones where I think he might be wrong I’ve already saw one of his videos before where he had massive issues. It’s up to ea not my opinion. 

But on the old forum people reported that bug where the game would lag I believe after halftime. It looked like connection issues but it wasn’t. Now I’ve played since 12 so the years run together so what year that was not sure off the top of my head. A year or two ago if I had to guess. 

The point is by reporting it we got change. And since it wasn’t connection I even said ea needs to fix it. I didn’t just blindly defend them. I want people to report it because I think it’s possible ra could be wrong. Not because I think ea is right. 

So again I think your view is wrong and hope people follow the ops lead rather he is right or wrong or if it’s ea or his or isp fault.
