Option to Turn Off Mirrored Skill Inputs for Left-Footed Players
Hey everyone,
I’ve been playing FC 25 a lot and I wanted to bring up something that’s been bothering me for a while — and I’m wondering if anyone else feels the same.
Right now in the game, skill move inputs are mirrored based on a player’s strong foot. So if a player is left-footed, you have to do the opposite stick direction compared to a right-footed player to pull off the same move (like a roulette or heel-to-heel).
I get that EA does this for realism, but honestly, it just makes it harder to build muscle memory for skills — especially when switching between left- and right-footed players. It creates inconsistency and makes certain skill moves less intuitive to use across different players.
My suggestion:
EA should add a toggle in controller settings to disable mirrored skill move inputs, so that the right stick inputs are always the same regardless of footedness. That way, players can choose what they prefer — either realism or consistent input controls.
Anyone else feel like this would help? Would love to hear your thoughts or if you’d support this getting added in a patch or future version of the game.
