Creating a conspiracy that I work for EA and judging me based on my "forum rank" 😂 I've not used forums much but have been a player since FIFA 08. I have no affiliation with EA and would never take their side if I believed there was any headroom.
It's simply a case of being a firm believer that if you are going to complain, you should complain about stuff that is actually wrong. Otherwise, complaining loses all meaning. This doesn't apply to this post, but in the space of an half an hour today, I saw 2 new posts from people moaning about how "EA have f***ed up", and doubled down on it when questioned, only to realise after more pressing that they are actually the one that made the mistake, an easy mistake to make at that.
If you don't think it's clear, say it's not clear, as this post has. Saying it's broken and you "definitely only did the FS evo's" when clearly that's not the case, however, is not OK, which is where my other comments are at.
You say "EA aren't innocent", but I'm yet to see how EA have actually done anything wrong besides subjectively lacking a little clarity for some players, OP included. If anything, they've actually done a lot since Evos were added to the game to make sure you don't make these errors, whilst keeping the same freedom of choice for evolutions in general;
Also, you say "to counter any argument you make the solution is ridiculously easy. Just make an evo that turns it back into an FSA player."...
HOW? What is that Evo going to look like? "Rarity: Evolutions 2" with a max 84 rating? Congratulations, i'll go stick 4*WF on Ferland Mendy and now I get a 92 rated ICON version with insane stats. They are obviously not going to do this. Undoing Evos hasn't been a thing from the start, probably because it'd be mayhem with their systems and every single evo would have to have full completion history which, seemingly, they currently don't. Implementing this going forward would be a good shout, but I wouldn't expect it to work - look how much they've genuinely messed up Evos to this point with basic functionality. I do agree it would be a useful feature, but it's not something that you could make backwards compatible if the coding isn't already partly there, and definitely not in a short timeframe.
My comment on this post was pointing out how reversing these mistakes is highly unlikely, if it's at all possible. The other comments on other threads are aimed specifically at those who have been inaccurate with their claims.
I'm not saying you are one, I'm saying you sound like one. I've used these forums to complain about multiple things over the years but nothing happens. I can give you a list of things I think are wrong, and a list of improvements they could make just to make the game more engaging. They are a multi billion dollar company, they have the money to easily rectify most things in the game, but instead they push out slop.
If you want to make a 92 mendy why not? They all have attribute limits, and he still won't be better than Theo Hernandez. I've never said it was broken, or that they were under different tabs. I've said it's far too easy a mistake to make, especially when they are throwing out other evos at the same people will see something else they would like on that card. We don't all want to build the same players as everyone else.
I'll give you a new solution. Remove all of the evo II and everything like it. Just make it an emblem on the card that denotes it has been through an evo. All of the evos have restrictions on what players can be put through them so it wouldn't make a difference. I don't care about my players having a pretty card to look at. I care about them and the game being functional.
