Do EA devs every watch or play football?
In the glory days of FIFA, the game rewarded sharp passing with mixed well timed dribbling and skill moves.
In the recent editions, it’s simply who has the better dribbling skills. One player will be able to play keep away from the other an dominate. I can tell if I will beat my opponent or if they will beat me (in Seasons mode) within 1 minute.
The only important passing is well timed thru balls while sending players on runs (which they never do on their own), who run by the day-dreaming, flat footed, defenders.
Why make football all about dribbling? Why, in the era of AI, is the CPU player AI the equivalent to a lobotomized banana slug? Most of all, why make the game so predictable and BORING?
Do you guys watch football? Maybe hire some people that do.
All the best,
