FC IQ: Extremely Low
I'm sure I'm not the only one, because it's absolutely tragic. All this hype for FC Player IQ but the IQ is very low. Whenever I'm looking for the short pass, because the run is not on as my opponent is blocking every path, my players always make runs in those situations when there's no way I can get the ball to them. Yet, when the run is on and I could easily get the ball to them, none of them move? Then I get caught in possession! These stupid decisions from my AI players cost me every game.
A lot of the time, when I spot gaps to thread passes through, they go straight to my opponent instead. I don't get it. I want it through the gap, not straight at the defender. It's getting worse and worse. Awful experience. I wouldn't mind if it wasn't such a regular thing, but it seems to be most games.
Previous games, that ball is getting through because the passing was better back then. How EA have made passing worse is beyond me. It's not like my players have low rated passing either, I'm using top passing players and they're still incapable of through balls through gaps! Driving me crazy.
