Congratulations, designers - you've made it less fun

I noticed early on many people describing how unplayable the ai is at world class.  I thought I would improve and I always dominate games typically with 60% possession and twice as many shots and higher xG than the AI but AI decides in its own favour.

The game essentially controls the keeper - whether he saves, catches, parries to a striker, etc.  And the game routinely hands the victory to AI.

I dominate - never actually outplayed.  The AI goalie plays the game of its life - every game.  And I lose 1-0 or 2-1 to the one or two shots the AI manages to get together.  And 90% of the goals are parries - which I have no control over, essentially handing an open goal to the AI.

The difference between levels is too steep.  If I drop a level, I win 13-0.  I have played with the sliders.  But it's more about the AI itself, literally controlling the game's outcomes.  I never experienced anything like this with previous versions.

And here's the punchline for the brain surgeons who thought that this steep ramp was a good idea and have stuck to it for a year despite the complaints.  IT CEASES TO BE SOMETHING THAT i WANT TO PLAY.  IT'S NOT FUN TO OUTPLAY THE AI AND THEN TO LOSE BECAUSE THE AI/GAME SIMPLY DECIDES TO FAVOUR THE OPPONENT.  I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP OR MERELY DEFENDING MYSELF.  

Here's the feedback.  Mess up again and I will have no further interest in engaging with your complacent product
