Ruined already
So, in 3 days we celebrate one month of FC26, and I must say: I was quite happy and pleasantly surprised. Players were making runs, defenders were doing their job, controls were smooth and accurate, ...
Than came the patches...
With every update something else stops working, up to the point that, after one month of releasing new garbage, everything I hated about FC25, is back.
Just spent a few hours of playing. I've seen attackers doing their best not to be available but hide behind defenders. I've had around 200 passes going in the wrong direction from where i was aiming for, or not going at all. Skill moves only work 1 out of 3. Not talking about success rate, I'm talking about actually doing something. Same for F1 if you want to have a player make a run. I had 3 occasions of an attacker who was totally free in front of goal but refused to take a shot, exactly like what happened in FC25 with the animation fiasco, which was allegedly solved. Meanwhile my opponents scored one goal after the other from outside the box while firing shots randomly at my goal. The whole gameplay experience feels again like trying to pull a dead elephant through a swamp. Controlling the ball is gone, left stick dribbling is a myth.
EA_Darko what is happening? Where did this great game go that was released only a month ago?
