Simulation mode is broken

Product: EA SPORTS FC 25
Platform:PlayStation 5
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 5
What is your Gamertag/PSN ID/Switch ID? halamadriditabr
Which mode has this happened in? Kick off
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Simulation mode is broken , and unreal In this simulation mode that you created with the current sliders, the attackers and midfielders do not leave the marking, they do not move, the players seem to run with a rope tying their legs, speed is also important in real football, in addition, 90% of the games end in 0-0.
What happens when the bug occurs? The attacking and midfield players are stupid, they don't get free, very reminiscent of the terrible gameplay of E-Football in simulation mode, in relation to the positioning of the defense it is ok, however the midfield and the wingers and the attacker don't get free and move to create opportunities.
What should be happening instead? Changes to the sliders to mainly change the movement of attackers and midfielders, to make them less stupid, to get away from the marking, to use their skills and speed to move away from the marking, find spaces, create more opportunities and 90% of the games in this simulation mode that was created to finish in 0-0.

Good afternoon everyone, as a big fan of the FIFA series since FIFA 11, I would like to express my disappointment with the simulation mode. I believe that the idea is to have a game mode like this, but I believe that adjustments need to be made to it. Regarding the defense, the positioning is excellent, but when creating plays, the midfield and wingers do not pass often enough to create goal opportunities. The attackers and wingers remain static and do not move away to create opportunities. The speed of the players in real football is also important. Faster players stand out in real football, but in the simulation mode created, I have the impression that all the players run with a rope tied to both their legs. 90% of the games end in 0-0. The midfield and attack do not move away to create opportunities, and sometimes it seems that the players are stupid, like what happens in the competitor E-Football. I think a game proposal like this is interesting, but I believe that improvements need to be made to these sliders in this game mode.

    Agree with the majority of what you said in your post. To optimize the play of user AI controlled players during matches, you also need to finetune the tactics and player instructions. For some reason this year, EA has decided to make user configuration changes as difficult as possible for gameplay interactions, responses, and game flow, with minimal effect on user or AI controlled players. Best suggestion, formulate your own slider configurations under the 'Custom' slider settings, utilizing the only default simulation sliders offered by EA that are functioning properly, while testing different values for the other options.

    Unfortunately, the game came with several bugs. When you try to change your own tactics, such as manually adjusting the defensive line, the game simply doesn't save. Now, the simulation mode has a cool idea, but EASPORTS still needs to adjust the sliders, especially in the midfield and attack. As I said, the players from the midfield forward move slowly, creating very few opportunities, and rarely escaping the markings of the opposing players, moving in a dumb way and reminding a lot of the horrible gameplay of the E-Football dolls in many moments. Besides, as I said, it seems like they run with their legs tied to a rope. Speed ​​in real life is a very important factor for a soccer player. Otherwise, we would have players who are 50 or 55 years old still playing at a high level and playing professional soccer.
    Fix these sliders in the EASPORTS simulation mode.
    As for the bug of not saving most of the tactical changes, I already mentioned the manual adjustment of the defensive line in another topic, but in a separate video, it simply doesn't save.
