I would say the only thing worse than old fifas is the market. The power curve changes each week.
I dunno if people forget old fifas were much worse. You don’t have any content only single matches. So people used silver teams to play starter bronze teams. Since there was nothing to do people got bored.
Gameplay was nothing but lb and y with pace. You also didn’t have servers it was p2p so the other persons connection would start and stop the game. That was when it was really unplayable not like today.
Although the prices of the market were better they had bid tokens which limited how much you could trade so that was a positive and a negative. The market was also down on the app for months at a time.
Is this years perfect no but it’s so much better than old fifas.
@RadioShaqs I Don't know if you're on the staff at EA or if you're a volunteer but I think people within EA need to start listening to what the community are saying. Look at this forum, look at any tweet about fifa, absolutely everyone is saying the same things about this game. It's unplayable. Literally every single game is side to side 1000 times in their own half, bounceback after bounceback, bugged goal and then sit back and get the AI to defend for you. It's the most disgustingly toxic, AI driven pile of garbage that any producer has ever put out
I've desperately tried to get a refund and I can't get one but i'll never buy another EA title after this one. It's appalling

I am just a volunteer but my game plays fine. In the old days I would get that start stop lag with p2p. That’s when everyone on the original forums would complain and ask for servers. Luckily ea listened and it improved the experience.
- 2 years ago@RadioShaqs Servers aren't the problem with FC24, the problem is that the AI is so heavily overpowered that games aren't won and lost by user input, they're won by whoever's chosen the most broken tactic to get the AI to defend for them. Every single game there's absurd auto tackles and interceptions, AI getting away with obvious fouls when you're through etc... but when you actually play manually every tackle bounces straight back to the attacker and they get given free goals, or you'll have a freekick given against you for absolutely no reason.
The things i'm seeing in this game since the update last week are genuinely disgusting. The player base is more toxic than it's ever been, pay to win teams everywhere you turn and there's no fairness whatsoever in the gameplay.- StuBoy19842 years agoSeasoned Veteran
@RadioShaqs whenever anyone complains about the bad gameplay you always comment it’s not that bad, considering the amount of people with the same complaints maybe just maybe it actually is, when you see EA partnered streamers calling the gameplay awful maybe it’s because the gameplay is actually awful, I’m not trying to be rude or anything but to just dismiss other people’s bad experiences with the game isn’t right, people have decent connections and controllers synced up whatever and still experience awful gameplay, I mean I’ve had an offside while in my own half, this game has so many problems it’s difficult to know where to start

by far the worst sports game ever. the amount of bs in this game is shocking! 90+ weird goals. inconsistent players. terrible defending and most importantly the terrible difficulty settings. changing the difficulty add stats to players in this game I mean how pathetic is that. Also I believe AI rolls a dice each game and decides which side to win. Honestly I do believe that

No. This is not the worst game, not the worst FIFA, etc.
Melodramatic post.

Here is probably the biggest thread. I believe ea posted I dunno 20 times explaining how to post the connection score and a video with the input overlay on. I dunno why but people just seemed to miss or ignore how to turn on the input overlay on. With it on you can see if you are getting server delay or if your presses are being registered immediately.
Hopefully a few in here could actually follow the instructions as it might help others experiencing issues.
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Ea-FC-24-When-Playing-Online-there-is-huge-delay-when-i-press/td-p/12955157/page/63As far as enjoying the game like I said I have issues with this years game not servers. I mean they should have offense be manual why it’s not forced online still is disappointing. Most don’t even know how to turn manual offense on.
But I just remember what 12 was like and can enjoy all the improvements. To me it’s come along way from the start of fut. Maybe it’s not the same for you but I posted most of the issues I thought were worse in older fifas already.

The game exists and is designed to make money. That is it. With a monopoly EAs game is how little can we put in to still get a lot out. That's it .

It’s funny because you have EA partnered streamers saying the gameplay is awful but here we are being told it’s not that bad, partnered streamers who have direct contact with the developers saying the gameplay is awful
