Career Difficulty Level doesn’t work, all are very easy.

It’exactly the same for me

Anyone else finding Ultimate difficulty, With Competitive mode and player based difficulty enabled, so easy still on FC26.

The AI defence is solid but they are barely attacking at all. 
Faced Liverpool, Barca & city, non of them actually attacked. 

I tried once let salah go completely, yet he turned around and passed it back multiple times. 

I literally got build up sliders up to 99, and still the AI doesn’t even try to attack or counter.

please fix this EA so Career actually gets interesting. The CPU opponent doesn’t attack. 

Playing on either legendary or Ultimate difficulty in career mode the ai do not attack or defend. It feels like I'm playing on amateur at best. I've tried different teams and saves and even reinstalled the game.

I've also tried different variations of sliders and settings including competitor mode/player based difficulty. But nothing makes the ai actually any better.

Watching some content creators play and the game looks completely different, ai actually trying to win and sliders actually working so the ai win games, not sure what's up with my game...

Yep exactly the same here

Same here

Yep this is exactly the same for me, the CPU does not attack at all, they need to fix this ASAP, it's gamebreaking.

Same here, teams aren’t aggressive and don’t seem to ever be a threat 

I am finding that the AI on Ultimate difficulty is incredibly easy to tear apart on the attack. I am usually fairly comfortable winning 2-0, 3-1 in previous editions on Ultimate difficulty, but I have started my first career mode in FC26 as Burnley and I am ripping Arsenal, City, Liverpool apart 9-0, 12-1. 

Just wondering if maybe the switch to more manual defending this year in the online gameplay has potentially hindered the defensive AI in offline modes. 

I agree. The AI is way too passive and rarely attacks or takes shots. They just keep position and play the ball back till the half ends. And this is with just authentic settings; nothing else changed. the AI seems to be broken in Authentic mode

I don’t know if it’s just me but, this year I think the Ultimate difficulty is broken, as in it’s too easy. Beating teams with ease. When I switch to legendary difficulty the AI started playing better football and become somewhat harder to attack against. I don’t what to do to make the game more challenging for myself to a point I’m believing this is a glitch. I hope they fix this soon.
