FC25 Ultimate Team is Far too Difficult and unrealistic

I've been playing fifa since it first ever came out, and i find FC25 the worst ever game that has been created.  Ultimate Team It as FAR, FAR, FAR too difficult.   I've only been playing it a couple of weeks and i think i've won 2 games out of about 100.   Often i'm 6 or 7 nil down at half time.  I've often been beaten with double figures 10-0, 14-0.   I don't consider myself a great player, but in FC24 i at least did reach Div 4.  I"m in Div 7 and its like i'm in Div1 - its ridiculous.  I've managed to get some fairly decent players as well though playing squad battles, but still i get absolutely hammered again and again.

Its FAR too easy now for oppositions forward to just run through from midfield and smash it in the back of net from unrealistic distances.    Tackling is absolutely ridiculous - and if you slide tackle, even if you get the ball its either a yellow card or red card EVERY single time.

So i'm afraid i'm ditching it.  Back to FC24 for me.  Still stuck in Div 4 on FC24, but at least its more enjoyable, even if still difficult, but i do manage to win a few games, and the scorelines are more realistic, as is the game play.  Hopefully they will bring out a more realistic version for FC26.

  • The patch made the game to easy on offense. It’s made the game more about pace and unrealistic scores. It would be nice if ea would revert the patch. They have said the majority like it being like this so doubt you will see a change. 

  • well maybe don't play online and play against the AI and set it too an easy AI while you are getting good players and once you have good players you can play online.

  • This is from a long time ago. Although ea made 26 arcade and removed realism. We didn’t know how lucky we were at the start of the year.

    I did manage to build up some good players, and still ended up with unrealistic score lines.  8-0 down at half time is hardly realistic no matter how good or bad the players are.

    FC26 is even worse.  I've got the Beta and although i can win some games, i've often been thrashed into double figures.  14-1 was the worst.

    I certainly won't be buying FC26.

    24 is still far more realistic than 25 or 26

    Good to know! I won’t be buying either. Waiting till the game actually drops and probably might buy if the reviews are good.

    Honestly, I've been playing Fifa or FC since the beginning (used to be pro evo was better) and this year the ultimate team is just too hard for me. I am old and a bit rubbish, but I beat my 18-year-old son and he'd pretty good at this stuff so I can't be that bad (got as far as Div4 in rivals this year and Div 2/1 previously). Now the way the players move or just don't is weird, it's either a lack of movement going forward or your defenders just run off leaving space open.  Nearly every game is painfully stressful and hard, so I'm done. I love football but I'm struggling to see the attraction of a game that's supposed to be fun but just isn't.  Time to retire I think🙂
