Will EA do the same next year?

There are many here and other platforms that are disgusted by how EA advertised gameplay which was reasonably realistic and then changed it to something that is shockingly bad in relation to simulation.

Many examples have been given here so I won't go in to detail but to summarise, the speed of the game and mechanics are so bad that you can literally, control, turn and start dribbling with the ball within a second, all the while whilst the ball sticks to your foot. Players and ball feels so light because acceleration is rapid.

Usually, you can adjust the sliders to change the mechanics somewhat but at least in manger career mode, the sliders are broken this year where they revert to custom or even worse in terms of gameplay speed after a few games. 4 months on and they still cant fix this basic feature.

So here's the question for EA, now that you have taken money from many who enjoyed the initial gameplay, especially before this arcady, FiFA Street "Refresh" patch c*. Will EA again, for FC 26, advertise the gameplay as close to simulation and realism and then change it after 3 months?

If this can be confirmed then me and many others can not be scammed out of money next year.

At least fix the sliders for FFS and allow to roll back to the previous patch for offline modes since that's the gameplay a lot of people paid for.

    I agree that the game was better at launch, but with a few exceptions. The number of times your attackers would be offside was insane and unrealistic. Goalkeepers used to almost never save near post efforts. Also normal ground passes are a little better than at the beginning, where used almost had to exclusively use pinged passes, which is also unrealistic. 

    I know that I'm speaking as someone who can't play online multiplayer matches, but it also helps make it clear why I am fighting so desperately for the inclusion of more offline modes in ultimate team, places where with proper gameplay (which by no means is guaranteed), you can be free from hacks, cheats, extreme input lag and skipping, and unrewarding gameplay due to poor internet connection or not having servers that are nearby and effective. 

    All the best to you!
