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, and the goalie isn’t even a thing. Whoever approved this update needs to either play the game for himself and ask himself if he is actually having fun, or go find a different job because I thought this years FC game was one of their better ones until they completely ruined it with this update.

Don't listen to all these others saying the update is good....which is not. All it did was make it into a counterattack game with zero skill. These posters are likely.EA accounts trying to gaslight you. The game is basically a back and forth with overpowered dribbling and non existent defensive players who literally just stare at the players and ball go by them . Goalkeeper literally turning their backs on finesse shots and let's not forget the scripting. All they want to do is sell packs to satisfy the players that can't do anything without OP dribbling and speed

@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.

Was playing world class and was a grind. Losing some, winning some but needing full focus in every game. Had to increase difficulty to legendary after the update and attacking still feels overpowered and lifeless. Every shot ends up in the corner, through balls seem scripted and almost seems to isolate the defender in his spot, passing is ping pong again, turns seem unrealistic, player movement at times defies biomechanics. Adjusting sliders to make it realistic seems to make some games in career mode erratic in relation to first touch, speed, animations etc all seem glitchy and broken.It wasn't perfect before but enjoyed it more than this overpowered attacking, arcade * fest with ridiculous scorelines. Scoring goals is too easy and when it should require patience, effort and skill.

@Manso0rrYou can’t control ever defender. It’s not about not defending it’s about offense taking no skill now.What I don’t understand is one of the worst fifas was just like this and everyone complained enough ea changes it.It was the year when all everyone did was twirl with attackers and ping pong passed. The only way to defend was put attackers or fullbacks into cb roles. Sound familiar to this year?That’s when ea made pace less important and did accelerate body types. You can’t have defenders be useless like they are now.

Can't relate. Gameplay after this update is in my opinion the best since FIFA 14. I can't remember when was the last time I had so much fun playing FIFA/EA FC.

The game has become very inconsistent after this update, the game has nothing to do with realism, there is no such thing as defense, there are ten goals in every match, it has become ridiculous.

I've had to do that, but it doesn't work. They act dumb because it messes up the chemistry.

It makes sense defenders can catch up a player with the ball is slower. You could do knock ons and stuff to get away before. Now you don’t need anything. It’s just to much.

It’s not realistic to have 4213 everyone on defense and 4 on the counter. You don’t see 40 through balls and 1 on 1 twirling in real life. You actually have to break down the defense.

Offense still needs help has to be a joke. How could it be any easier maybe make the gk able to lazer pass to the striker. I dunno why have a striker just have gk shoot from their box lol.
Since you don’t believe that the attack and player control still need improvements and you’re saying it’s a joke, here you go, this is after the new update:
