Re: EAFC25 is genuinely the worst FIFA game ever on release
Patch after patch they still haven't addressed the defensive A.I.
It's completely unrealistic from spamming 3 tackles per second, to sprinting in over committing and recovering instantly, to outrunning the best forwards in the game, to strikers with low defensive stats being the best defenders in the game, to every single square of the pitch being squeezed by players with infinite stamina even passes from ground passes, lobs & crosses magnetically fly to them or they straight up outrun them, career ending tackles that don't get punished, gliding auto blocks/interceptions etc.
Compare it to the attack and the various penalties put in place on them with movements, trapping the ball, picking up the ball and progressing forwards, weird forces that slow players down, slow passing animations, slow shooting animations, constant running offside even the best forwards in the game can't time runs properly, players out of position, attacking rebounds flying to defenders etc.
The defense needed to be the first thing to be patched. It's so boring. I'm barely playing this game now because I can see with my own eyes people aren't even defending anymore.
