if this was September then fair enough you
could expect some minor teething issues with gameplay but we will be into EAFC25 soon and the gameplay is still absolutely broken. This is simply not good enough, EA should acknowledge the issues and try to fix them… this is simply swept under the rug time & time again. It’s a disgrace

So i played today WL and i made an observation that whenever i play with someone with 2-6 ms ping i win, i can play i can score goals my players can run etc, i think i only lost one of those games. The completely different story is when i play on 20ms ping or higher, and i am thrown on some german server or God knows where, because i only won ONE of all the games played with higher ping.
Beginning from september i changed my router, my cables, my settings, my ISP plan for higher and faster i spend money and time, and i can still see my Xavi 97 passing - giving the ball away to more distant player than my other mid player, it's incredible. Xavi can make incredible passes, but yet there are some games where he play completely rubbish.
20 games played today, but if you want to know how many games i played with fun. With pleasure. It was 2. Yes 2 games of very nice fluent football, when everything that you want to do comes true.
If you buy a car - you leave the seller (car dealer) and you know that you will have to do some check ups after 1 or 2 years. You don't have to come back to the dealer asking him - why the car is not running? Why it's not turning, why the radio never works, why the door is not closing etc.
When you buy some EA product, theoretically finished you expect it to run. You come home install the game sit comfortably and you just want to play. But it is not the case with EA FC 24. No. you have to do plenty of things, you have to spend a lot of money and in the end it's all in vain. Nothing changes. There are some great matches and the matches when you want to tear your hear out, because you know you are better, the stats show it, but you loose and you can not do a damn thing about it.

The main issue is there is nowhere to actually speak directly to an EA employee that could give a response to what is happening with your own gameplay. We can post videos on here where someone can view it, say that can't see an issue and blame it on a poor choice in button press or not anticipating an opponent correctly. There needs to be a live chat option where you can talk through the bad gameplay with someone. The game is designed to hide these gameplay issues so a lot of people who play probably don't even realise they are at a disadvantage and believe they just have to upgrade their team to perform better. if only Ea could be transparent with what causes this poor gameplay we could actually start to fix it, but alas they won;t because it would cost them money
- KingSimeon892 years agoSeasoned Veteran@CPFC007 Very well said! I just loaded up a game of squad battles and even the gameplay there is disgusting. Agile nimble players with the turning circle of emile heskey. Everything is so sluggish

@CPFC007 You're correct, there's no chance EA can see anything wrong with our gameplay because in these videos it's even hard for us to see.
The gameplay is too fast to notice overlay buttons etc.
The whole problem is how the gameplay feels to the controller,
If anyone looks up NHL fatman lag and compare it to this game it's basically the same problem.
Something Isnt syncing up right. Could be routes to EA servers but I've switched isp 4 times in recent years and I am currently with a new isp with a brand new infrastructure with Full fibre straight to the house.
Most on the NHL forum think it's lag compensation, I've tried to lower the bandwidth but make no difference I can't really change the jitter and packet loss " Maybe it needs ro be higher"
I would love to see the connection reports of someone that doesn't have delay.

I think it certainly has to be either a form of lag compensation or the routing to the ea server. i suspect it is the first. I get 98/100 on the connection test, have stable fiber internet. The only time i have had good gameplay was when the packet loss symbol kept flashing up. I just accept that i will be at a disadvantage when i play champions and realistically in terms of rewards the difference between winning every game and losing half of them isn't that great. I would love to play on a level playing field but that is a dream that sadly will never come true. The issue EA have is that if they admit to lag compensation, someone would work it out and everyone would be doing the whatever it is to their connection to get an advantage so they can't. The only fair way is to punish poor connections but long term this would destroy EA's revenue so that keep it as it is and just deny poor gameplay exists

game is a complete disgrace right now, playing champions at 1am UK time on a Monday night. My players are slow, won't run, won't turn, can't sprint. I can't win possession. Player passing to their keeper and I can't get my team to press the ball.
The turning and player switch is so slow I can't do anything to win the ball back. Game is a complete disgrace.

4 days break. Back to FutChamps, a completely different sprint, they run like they have bricks in their shorts. I will never understand this edition.

@KingSimeon89 That makes me wonder how tf this scammers streamers win most of the games if not all of them and their gameplay smooth responsive rarely if they face an gameplay issue
