FC 25 (23.12.25) Why is everything so Buggy/Broken?
Hello everyone,
After i contacted the support to help me, he told me to write here.
So i hope you maybe find or maybe better, you have allready a solution for my problems.
First of all, i knew they patched alot. Nerfed / "Fixed" or Buffed things. But since the last Big Major change, my game feels awefull.
I played in FC24 Most of the time around Division 2 and in FC 25 I´m between Div 1-3.
So lets count my issues Together:
Major Issues:
1) Powershots / and the Badget.
My players dont realy shoot much quicker with it. They shot around 2-5 Km/h faster, but thats it. They are super unprecice, even if have the line for aiming on actiiv and they are super slow in ther animations. Btw my evolved Selina Cerci lost the entire skill. She still has the badge, but its not working.
I can understand that many player thought "its OP", but since the last patch, its useless. I have very special evo player, who should easily kick them into the corner with their powershot plus,
But yeah, since the Animations isnt most of the time quicker anymore, its allways a save defense.
2) Header
Thanks to all complainings the Header got ridicolous nerfed.
Yes they were strong ... but just when the Attacker was Free or the defender missed it.
My Harry Kane with 95 Header acc. (Header white badge) and 99 Jumping 94 strength cant header anymore.
Look at this stats, and he is not able to header, against any defender. And when he get a header, he head them super slow or high, that the keeper can super easy catch them.
I tried alot. Move him free, tried to precise head the balls, tried to hit them direkt on the goal. Nothing works anymore.
3) Finesse
Thanks to all complainings aswell, Finesse shots are now super terrible in close distance, and still buggy in long distance.
Specialy after a pass, my Del Piero or Harry Kane turn around and shoot them perfect into corners.
At the box its allways get catched ... at the corner of the box, it circles super wierd around the keeper.
4) Dribbling and Defense
I know many of you play this "fifa street" style, right stick abuse stuff, and don´t go for crosses or corners. But thats not how a football game should work.
It happens so often, that my defender just slip of the ball, the attacker can dodge my defender and have an open net.
Before the last Major Patch i could easily defend things manually. "Yes i´m a manual defender". But at the moment it feels so awkward.
My defender are sometimes not targetable even with the "switch triangle" on top of them, or it switches super ugly around.
But the dribbling moves are often way to strong and can dodge a defender who have 95 in defense with a good timed takle.
Or the defender should let them run offside. But sometimes they just follow them along, and break the offside line entirly.
5) Sprint Speed
I dont know why, but e.g. my Pajor with Rapid Plus and 98 Sprint speed, looses so often their sprint lineups. She is not the only one. My Lauren Hemp (after evolution and 97 Sprint speed and Rapid), my Jess Park 99 Sprint speed with Rapid plus or my Leeroy Sane with Rapid and 99 cant outrun a defender too.
They often get a super easily catched up.
My Bensebaini 99 speed can´t catch a Traore or Vini or Salah.
And i´m confused because when the match goes to the 80 minute, my opponent defenders are still sprinting like freshly in and my changed Frimpong 99 Speed and Rapid has massiv problems.
6) Game Settings Reset / Tacttics dont work correctly
The most anyoing thing for me, are this "setting resets".
Sometimes they are safed. Sometimes they are switched but dont work. Sometimes they are switched but not safed ....
I shoot with precise option on, and sometimes its just on manual. Then i go into the settings, change it on assisted. Safe it, go back again and change it on precise and then it works correctly.
And thats not the only thing. Passing, player switching, crossing, defending ... everything is changing "passive". I dont have right now any game session, where i dont have to check it.
To the Tactics, its the "line of defense". If you set it on e.g. 58. When your match starts, it isn´t on 58. Its on 50 Balance if you check it.
So i have every Match to manually change it on my wished number.
Smaller issues:
- Passing still went everywhere. Atm i´m using "charging" for my pass option, just because "late" dont chooses so often the player behind even with 5% pass power.
- Long high passes allways get catched. Even if i have the faster player, they start to slow down, drop behind the defender. Sometimes in Champs and Rivals i have opponents where their attacker don´t slow down, and the pass go much more precise and far away. I checked guides for it, but its not working ... dont know why.
- Player start to ignore their position. my lb means to play lw. or my lm means not to fall back, and stays at the middle line, even with the winger position.
- defense like snakes. So the defender moves totally around the attacker with their tackle, but if they straight infront of them, they kick in their knees ?!?!?
- Post defender at corner, dont do anything. Had multiple times now, that my Harry Kane, dont know why he is at the Post, stand their and the ball went through his legs or under his arms and he didn´t moved or flinched.
- Game speed is sometimes on normal and sometimes on quick. (I want the quick option back!) The game felt so much smoother on quick.
- in Teammanagment you want to switch a player, and cancel your locked player, you get kicked back into the Menu.
Last Words:
I realy have to say, i liked the game much more, before all patches at the end of november and beginning december.
The Game is for me unplayable right now.
I hope you can help me her with your solutions.
