Seriously, WTF is wrong with this game.

Didn't play it for a week after the latest patch and thought if I come back to it, I may feel the pong pong speed, every player turning on a sixpence and dribbling tighter than Messi effect less but f me it's worse.

The game has gone from, requiring patience, effort and skill to get a goal to goals galore with FIFA Street type football.

Do the sliders have any impact? Reduced the speed down to 29 and acceleration down to 39, thinking it'll feel a bit more realistic but the dribbling and turns are still cringe worthy. De Ligt turns and dribbles like Zidane.

I'm p**** at myself for spending money again on this garbage after 3 years of staying away thinking the initial gameplay seemed reasonable in terms of simulation but my word have EA caved in to the pressure of the pros and arcade fan boys wanting a ping pong, arcade s* fest which requires little effort to pass, turn, dribble and score.

The game wasn't perfect but after the latest patch it's awful.
