This is nothing new. EA knows exactly what they are doing. They pretend they are listening. But if I go back as far as FIFA 17, around this time of the year the game just falls apart. It’s part of their marketing strategy to push packs on people. They fix two things and break five others.
Squad Battles is the only mode I play because I can’t stand online clowns, immature gamers, or credit-card teams, but my patience is really gone. I try to be patient and play the game authentically. As the years go by, I see very little improvement—only dishonesty from this company.
As sad as it is, and even though it’s the only game I truly love and play besides Gran Turismo, I have to put this game aside because the stress level is damaging my health. The game offers little fun and is mostly stress. I just have to quit it somehow.
I tried UFL and PES, and they are ten times worse. Generally, I used to play many sports games—from MLB to NBA—but you know what? Wink wink, the S word EA doesn’t like has ruined gaming. The industry isn’t doing anything about it because they’re getting paid under the table. It’s guaranteed profit.
If we all stopped playing this game, maybe then they would change their ways. But as long as it drives addicts into buying packs and investing in the market, this problem will only peak and get worse.
