@Cam3131 I believe EA is the reason why this community has become this toxic and I completely understand. Although some players seem to have good gameplay online like what @RadioShaqs said, most of us experience bad gameplay and glitches which makes everyone so frustrated. I play on console and have a 12 ms ping on average with input overlays in tact but I still experience crazy bad gameplay everyday. Is it because of where I'm located? I have no idea. But once you have this bad gameplay, every player wants to win and would find crazy ways to do so, alas no one wants to play to lose in this game right? And ppl like me who play for the fun of this game trying out different players, tactics and formations have no place in this game. I see a lot of posts from streamers about meta formations and tactics and I tried one of them which made a huge difference in the game itself which made me think this game is catered to a very particular style of gameplay and mechanics that back those plays. And these meta formations change with each update but they don't get better. This has eventually become a one dimensional game with a fixed style of meta gameplay and players who don't use these meta formations and tactics will eventually either have to adapt to those or quit this game. So if neither the gameplay nor the connection is even remotely decent for the majority of this community, how will we ever have fun and if we don't have fun, eventually ppl will turn toxic and fight amongst each other rather than focus on the one thing that ruins a football game for all of us.

Just got the game, see what you guys are saying and iam totally agree with 90 % of it, my biggest problem with this game is the servers connection.
If you doing a competive online game you most make sure that everybody got the same access to the servers, iam got a 1000/1000 Mbit fibre wire and cant play the game and this is the only game i cant play, iam usually got a ping between 0 - 5 in all other games but Ea: s servers are diffrent, i was asking around at my school and other forums and iam far away from alone with this issue, if you even cant provide sane server connection for everybody you should be open and tell the truth before you sell the game, iam stuck with a expensive game that i not can use, thank god iam not a buy in game person couse then iam really should feel bad..
Also i notice that the coding aint specially good the game is builed on and every match we play the gameplay behaves totally diffrent, its pretty much seems to me that this is an unfinnshed product and you took a simple chance to sell it and hope that youre costumers aint gonna complain but i honestly dont now one person who plays Eafc anymore and there is so much complains on other forums, i dont really get why you dont fix it and listen to youre costumers, and why you send out youre volenteers "champions" who is defending a broken product into the last breath, just listen to youre cosumers instead, take a look at other forums what are people saying about the game...
Maybe you can ask if you can loan Epic games servers lol anyway this aint for me at all, iam waiting for a real football game instead, good luck to all of you who still playing this game, i really hope that Ea listen to you and fix the servers and the gameplay for you.

i really hope that Ea listen to you and fix the servers and the gameplay for you.
This game cannot be fixed. It's broken in every aspect.
1. Main menu, settings - you can't move without the mouse because the pad jumps like crazy.
2. Passes are broken, a simple ground pass to another player is completed 1 in 5.
3. Manual defense is devastated - one soft movement of the stick and the defender runs in a different direction.
The players' reactions are illogical and slow.
In FIFA 23, if you made a mistake with your defender, the other player could quickly correct it.
4. Often, after receiving the opening pass, instead of running towards the goal, the striker gets stuck receiving the ball and the action loses momentum.
5. Huge controller delays.
There are many others that could be written about. The game has as many holes as Swiss cheese. You can't play after 9 a.m. in Central Europe - because it's ice hockey then.
They are already thinking about the next edition, not about repair.
If the game engine is broken, no patches or updates will help.
At most they will add some weak musical songs - that is their repair.

@LukeNuke3000DOkey i see and start to understand that its more than one problem ( often it is when a game is build on broken codes and bad and cheap servers ) , i got the game last week from a friend and they told me that Eafc is totally out of balance, now iam beginning to understand what she meens, the absolute biggest problem for me right now is the server connection, i never in my life seen a game that cant could connect to the server like this game, theres no problems at all with my internet, it is superb, i think the game I got from my friend had about 5 owners and everybody had just gave this game away, no one wants it and iam about to do the same actually.
A quick question u mention that they cant do anything about this game to make it playble, my question is isnt it illigal to sell a product thats not works without any kind of warnings about the game ? Should it not have at least an warningslabel at the game ? As i see it this is a totally open scam, anyway iam not planning to buy their products again. - RadioShaqs2 years agoHero
If nothing for you works request a refund. If you got it from ea you can contact them if you got it off Sony or Microsoft you can contact them. Pretty sure they all have guarantees on the games.
- 2 years ago@RadioShaqs I didnt bought the game i got it for free from a friend, just wanted to test it couse there is girlteams in the game.
I just had questions about why Ea servers are so unbelevible bad and if there is anything i can do to improve my gameplay, but what i understand is there is absolute nothing to do about it.
But if i would buy the game, isnt that something that i should be aware before I buy a product that isnt finnished 😀 anyway i dont care so much anyway its just a tv game and it was free and there is much better games out and companys that actually care about their costumers 😀😀 maybe u guys should ask Epic games or Activision if you can borrow their servers instead lol - RadioShaqs2 years agoHero
Mine works fine so wouldn’t want to borrow any other servers. If the game wasn’t finished it would be under recall. It does have a needs internet connection on the label and has more about in the tos.
- 2 years ago
@RadioShaqsdoes it have a internet connection on the label ? What does that even meens, the game i got from my friend had five diffrent owners, that meens five diffrent localocations and no one of them could play the game, i got a 1000/1000 fibre wire connection and connected with a stable connection, on Fortnite and Cod iam got a ping between 0 - 5 and superb serverconnection but as soon iam.start Ea games its an terrible servetconnection, i dont really get why Ea put a internet connection label on their products when i belive every single sane person understand that u need internet to play a online games, another thing that is super importend on onlinegames is really good servers that can connect youre internet, maybe Ea should have a label about their servers instead or what do you think, have u been on other forum at all ? This is a HUGE problem and iam far away from alone, u got superb connection and iam so happy for you.
Take a moment and look around on other forums, ask people what they honestly think about the game, and dont do that as a Volenteer do it as a person who can see things objective.But hey what do I know iam just a stupid girl and a stupid costumer 😀

They are not going to put a whole bunch of paragraphs on the back of a game. That’s why you would have to read the tos.
I am objective and gave you all the help I can. Do you see anyone else giving advice.
If nothing in the game works for you request a refund. If things do work and you are having server problems I’ve linked what you can do to help yourself.
if you are convinced it’s it’s ea servers I’ve also linked how you can report it.
I can only lead a horse to water. Please report it so ea can look into it.If nobody does which you can see nobody does then it’s probably not on eas end. Again report it if you think it is which I hope you do.
- Burnzee2 years agoSeasoned Veteran@RadioShaqs Really? The game has been a shambles for the past 5, 6 years mate, more so the last 3. Nothing gets fixed properly, and every 'fix suggestion' is always 'its your connection' never EAs fault. Blaming a customer is seriously bad customer service.
- RadioShaqs2 years agoHero
If more people would report it I could see saying it’s was eas fault. You would think it would be more common for people to report it but it’s not. I think so far one person in that thread followed the instructions and posted the proper report. I don’t even think he had delay though. If he did it was very minor.
But yeah hopefully you post your connection report and a short video with the input overlay on so ea can take a look at it.
