Game is unplayable after January update
The game is unplayable after the update, it was very fun before but when every game ends with 25 goals scored it’s not fun. Defenders are pointless, might as well have statues out there for defense, ...

@jabobisno1 It’s like a basketball game now. They removed all the skill on offense. It’s back to using non manual offense and just pacing past defenders. They will have to revert it or the pros games will be in the 20s combined scores.
Since EA can’t sort out weird exploits in the game (like trivelas, VVD corners etc…), This is absolutely the RIGHT way to go. If u weight the game towards Defense being OP, bugs/exploits and RNG are gonna have a huge impact (I actually thought that was what EA wanted to keep kids playing). I’m positively surprised they went this way. So many things are still in need of fixing, but way to go EA for once!
They are actually taking a huge risk doing this (but I think it’s the right move long term). Increasing skill gap will maybe alienate kids buying cards. We should appreciate this! En mass!!
This is the best update to a FIFA game for years. Game was in the saddest state of any FIFA since I started in 2016….props to EA for actually putting in the effort. I thought they would shelf any changes until fc26. I’m really shocked people don’t like this update. I’m even enjoying games I end up losing.
- @mcballsslayer The ones who don’t like this update are the people who rely on the game to defend for them. After the update, defense became almost manual, and the AI doesn’t defend for them anymore. Plus, slow defenders now struggle to keep up with attackers who are way faster than them.
That’s why they don’t like it, but for me, I think it’s great and a step in the right direction. However, the game still needs full control over the players, faster dribbling, and less delay in skill moves. Passing also needs improvement. If they fix these things, the game would be amazing.
