I never thought I’d come online and complain about a game, but here I am. This game is awful. Will not be purchasing another FC again. Very lazy and unrealistic game mechanics. Inconsistent game speed. Especially when playing online. My players move slow while it seems like my opponents players are moving double speed. Like unrealisticly fast. Its like they all of a sudden glitch straight to me. They are able to tackle me at will from behind with no foul call. Even when I shield the ball. That is crazy, tackling from behind should be removed in general unless its a well timed slide tackle.
They spam skill moves which traps my defender in an animation, but because they are moving at a pace faster than mine when i try the same they win the ball back with ease. I can be outside the box dribbling with Mbappe with only the goalkeeper to beat and the keeper will rush out and get to the ball before I have a chance to kick it. How?? Are they superman? It is physically impossible for a person to cross the box and get to the ball at my feet before i have a chance to kick. All players should move at the same speed relative to their pace. AI should not be able to move faster than me. Also my defenders will deliberately break the line and run back preventing an offside trap and allowing for an easy one on one with the keeper and when I try to rush my keeper out there is always a delay before he starts moving.
When I win the ball back from opponents they are able to recover and win it back before I can even fully control the ball. Again physically impossible. Meanwhile when they win the ball from me my player freezes or stumbles, thus allowing them to get going and forcing me to scramble to recover. Finally, the input delay is so infuriating. By them time my player responds to my input the situation no longer calls for it and my opponent wins the ball back.
Is this a server issue or what? Because in the lower divisions its not as much of a problem but once i’m in division 1 its like playing a different game, I'm no longer in control of my players. You should know the game is broken when folks are going 400-0-15. Those guys should be in a division of their own so that the rest of us who want to play a fair, fun and consistent game can enjoy it in peace. I dont mind losing, its part of the game but I hate being cheated out of an experience I paid for. Simplify the game again. Take out all the automatic automation and over powered AI and let folks battle it out based off of skill and not spamming loopholes. You beat my with a skill move, fine but don't predestine me to be beat because Im stuck in an animation.
