Shoots
I play eafc just for career mode. I like realistic gameplay but even in authentic gameplay, game feels extremely unrealistic. Passes are too accurate. I can't feel any difference between 70 and 90 overall player while passing. Long passes are too accurate and even low overall players perfectly control the long pass on the line 95% of the time.
The most important thing, shoots are toooooooo slow. I tried to increase it via sliders but even when i make 60 and try a power shot, goalkeeper saves and ball accelerates like crazy, like 300-400 km/h and goes off the stadium.
Also goalkeepers catch every ball. No save, cathes. Its also annoying. So everything feels extremely unrealistic. Needs to be changed.
Another thing, referees give wrong desicions all the time. And especially handballs are too bad too wrong. Player keep his hands on his back, perfect position to avoid handball. Even ball hit that hand, its not handball. But no, referee insta give the penalty. If i turn off handball, which is again unrealistic, i can't use a single penalty for whole season.
About the ai, increasing difficulty shouldn't mean ai cheat. I choose a cretain difficulty but when there is an important match, ai cheats like hell. Every pass is above 150 km/h. They pass perfectly even with slider nerfs. Ai should be smarter in harder matches, should not cheat. I immediately know i will be crushed that match and i get angry instead of enjoy while playing a 'game'. Result: 3-0 in 30 min xd (I mostly win my games at that difficulty without any problem). In those matches, difficulty is beyond legendary while i choose 2 lv lower difficulty. It's not fun. If you want to make game harder, at least put an option: 'enable dynamic difficulty'. So both tryhard and casual players can have fun.
If those would be fixed, game would be extremely fun.
