Difficulty Imbalances
With the recent patch 1.3 EA introduced a steep increase in challenge for offline modes. Balancing gameplay is not an easy thing to do and whether changes are positive or negative is subjective.
With all that being said I struggle to get any sort of enjoyment out of the current build of the game. While I was still having fun playing Manager Career before v1.3 I feel all of the fun has been patched out and been replaced by frustration. Difficulty in games is for sure challenging to nail but I feel the need of the introduction of a setting between World Class and Pro has to happen.
The differences are very significant as the AI behaviour on both sides of the ball drastically changes...surely I'm not the only player to notice the HUMONGOUS GAP is skills required for each setting.
Since 1.3 I get to pick my poison:
- do I want a mostly frustrating and unfun experience that provides a challenge
- or do I want to be bored out of my mind winning 8-0 every game while struggling to stay awake?
Please EA consider giving people a viable option to enjoy EA FC. It has always been World Class for me but with the recent changes in gameplay in addition to the buffed AI it simply stopped being fun entirely.
