This game is unplayable for me as we discuss this! I can say tons but I am trying to use pointers to point out what a mess it has been patch or No Patch
I reached out to the customer team as well. I have demanded refund in totality and they said I will be rewarded by the Developer once they see the update notes!
1. The game is terribly different for me & my opponent. What works for him won't work for me. I am using a 800 MB-1GBps Fiber optic connection and there is still delays. Unresponsive at its best.
2. What happened to the pace of my attackers? Viktor Gyökeres is bonkers bad. Even after allowing specific roles my wingers are continuously pulling back. Even when I press L1 they will not make runs into the box.
3. We all know how stats for defenders are quite wrong when it comes to pace however when facing very good, fast strikers and wingers the only chance a defender gets when beats is getting a good sliding tackle or standing tackle followed by ball retention. NO! Literally after getting the perfectly right tackle, the defender stays on the ground and the attacker carries the ball. (However the players I face are so bad and they end up missing). Don't get me wrong, these are bad bad players who have spend tons on coins and have a 15 million dollar team without footballing IQ.
4. Each move is a drag deepening on what time of day it is. For instance my RB/LB taking on the opponents wide midfield will result in me beating them, then clashing with them, then getting up, being found (no yellow or red) then both collide and the opponent takes the ball and runs towards my defense. Why is this so ridiculous?
5. My keeper comes out (courtious) runs towards the ball that's about to be on edge of the box extends his arms and somehow ball slips out of his hands. There's no pressure on him, no player around him and the ball bounces away to which he retires and misses it since there is an attacker on him by now. Possession lost, player passes or squares and goal!
6. The game was 50% AI. Meaning I stopped doing plenty of things and I jumped from D5 straight away On my way! to D2 in a week's time. But then it changes depending on time of the day. I played slow, fast, medium paced, did less, did more, did nothing, did everything, did the absolutely correct things and still ended up losing balls in the most ridiculous fashion. It's as if I am playing FC25 but the controls for my opponents are that from Fifa 98. Easy tackle, pass, shoot.
At this point there is clear EA DDA! There is clear analytics they use to monitor hours spent by each players. They have done very good psychological research of how. human mind works to play, to enjoy to win and they will give us a combination of it with 30% success rate just so players thrive long enough and end uo spending more coins (we all know your scandalous game EA)
I have by this point saved hundreds if not thousands of videos. I save 7-8 each game. These videos aren't some amazing goal vids but in fact a proof of complete mishaps and shi.. f..kery by EA. It still doesn't justify the intensity and timing at which these mistakes occur but they are pretty much game changing. This company needs to absolute go out of business. It's time someone else comes into it. An Elon with a good competing attitude should do because at this stage EA has made a beaucrat monopoly out of the worst product there is on market.
