Re: Auto pressing has killed FC24

@Cam3131 Nothing will change either by the looks of it played 2 games today. 1st player had high pressure on all game whilst not manually controlling their defenders. What chance do you have when you come up against someone so hell bent on abusing every broken part of the game? 2nd player just had auto press to the max and did the same with their defenders, no sign of manual controlling, all players drop back into the box so there are no shooting opportunities. This game is dead. I'll no longer buy any football products from EA. THEY have abused my trust as a consumer by promoting and promising a far better end product. They have seriously failed and need to be taken to task regarding how bad they are treating their customers.

@Burnzee every version of fifa always has flaws and things that certain people don't like but my god i've never enjoyed a Fifa less than this one and i've had every Fifa since 98. Like you say, people aren't even controlling their own players, i've had instances in the past where someone has put their controller down and stopped playing and they STILL have 2 players pressing my player that's on the ball relentlessly and when you beat them, another one comes to press and make tackles.
I understand why custom tactics were brought in but they've become too open to abuse (Which is a community problem as well as an EA problem). Custom tactics should shape the way you play but it should never get to a point where a custom tactic is so broken that it's physically impossible to play against.
I've been elite division every season so far until this one where i can't be bothered playing rivals anymore and i get minimum 16 wins in every weekend league so i'm not even complaining because I can't win, because I win more games than I lose. It says a lot about the game that even when you win you find it unenjoyable because of the way other people are playing and abusing the game
