I am winning 8-0 even on Ultimate Difficulty in Career Mode. Putting in no effort because it’s all so easy. Seems like the difficulty doesn’t actually change from semi pro upwards. I am playing as Chelsea which have a decidedly average team, but it’s no challenge at all.
Same here, makes carreer mode really boring.
It's been almost a month, and they didn't manage to fix it lmao. I wasted a subscription for this. shameful, really.
Opponent difficulty:
I play on the hardest difficulty, but the AI is still very easy to beat. They rarely attack or shoot, and when they have possession, they often pass backward to the goalkeeper, who clears the ball and gives away possession easily. Every opponent tends to play the same way repeatedly, which makes matches predictable.
Lack of fouls and yellow cards:
The CPU almost never commits fouls or receives yellow cards. I haven’t had any penalties or free kicks against them, even after increasing their aggression to 99
I wouldn't be surprised if they coded Legendary/Ultimate to play like amateur, it's honestly unplayable.
The AI defensive logic needs work; it’s too passive in defence regardless of difficulty the AI doesn’t tackle or foul, not to mention they leave spaces in behind and they rarely ever apply pressure off the ball, the aggression from the CPU simply isn’t there.
I have the tackle slider on 99, and they still don’t put in any tackles, please fix this I play Legendary/Ultimate and it’s a genuine walk in the park there should be much more tackles, fouls and aggression from the CPU.
This is applicable to both Authentic/Competitive gameplay.
The AI Attacking logic needs work, the CPU are too easy to defend against, the CPU is so reluctant to shoot/cross/pass whenever they enter dangerous zones, whenever there’s a teammate open for a simple tap in, the CPU decides to shoot near post at the keeper from practically an impossible angle or they decide to run straight into the keeper.
Whenever the CPU is 1v1 against me, the CPU attacker runs the ball straight into the Keepers arms, whenever there’s a chance to cross the ball in with no pressure on, the CPU runs the ball off the pitch or they don’t cross at all, despite having build up speed on 80+ the build up play from the CPU is incredibly passive and risk averse, regardless of opponent or difficulty.
I play on Legendary/Ultimate and the CPU is very easy to defend against, they pass it sideways most of the time, they’re very easy to tackle, they never pass the ball across goal for an easy tap in, they don’t cross, whenever they enter the box they hesitate to shoot despite it being a clear cut chance.
I’ve bumped all of the attacking sliders to 80+ and still no change please fix this, the AI attacking logic at the launch of FC 25 and FC 24 was perfect, the CPU knew how to attack and it was a genuine challenge defending against them, now it’s not the case.
Agree
The problem is not the AI defending mostly however, is that it won't attack
Career Difficulty Level doesn’t work, all are very easy and I think the difficulty level is broken.
this needs to be fixed as I am not enjoying the fc26 career mode, it’s too easy even ultimate and legendary are playing like beginners and amateur… it’s so disgusting… fc25 career mode difficulty is better.
please fix this asap.RecursiveFlux EA_DanaB EA_Dennis EA_Mahoniamichelrespawn
