New playstyle idea
Hi EA, my idea is to bring a new revolutionary playstyle that I personally believe would be very popular into the game and would love for you to take time to review it at the very least and take into account how much this would impact the gameplay for FC positively.
Description/Concept: An attacking PlayStyle focused on positioning and run timing along the defensive line, reducing AI-controlled attackers running offside during build-up and counter-attacks.
PlayStyle Effects:
Base PlayStyle: The player rarely makes offside runs, demonstrating superior awareness by holding their line or curving their run to stay onside during AI-directed attacks.
PlayStyle+: When not being manually controlled (L1/LB triggered runs or user-controlled movement), the player will never run offside. They will delay or check their run perfectly along the last defender's shoulder.
Trigger Conditions:
Activates automatically during AI forward runs, counter-attacks, and pass-reception positioning along the opposition's defensive line.
Real-World Context / Example Players:
Jamie Vardy / Filippo Inzaghi / Son Heung-min: Forward players renowned for playing on the absolute shoulder of the last defender and timing their runs to perfection.
Why It Would Improve the Game:
Reduces AI Frustration: It addresses the common issue where AI attackers blindly charge offside during crucial build-up plays without user input.
Adds Tactical Depth: Gives players a tactical counter to teams relying heavily on high-line pressing and constant offside traps.
Differentiates Player Profiles: Creates a meaningful distinction between raw speed merchants who constantly get caught offside and smart, positionally aware forwards who time their attacks cleanly.
Thanks for your time, Edward
