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?

  • literally started as the best fifa ever... only to end up like Fc 25 in a month.

  • One month in and I'm already not bothering it play it until Sunday now when Squad battles resets

    I don't care about completing the weekly objectives because the rewards aren't worth me playing modes I don't like. 

    Well done EA, your obsession with catering to influencers has made the game boring for 99% of players who don't try to abuse the trading system

  • Only played 1 game so far since the update, but we seem to be playing 2 different games, for me runs seem improved, left stick dribbling still works but has defo had a nerf so passing and movement needs refining by player you can do a million skills little turns anymore so actually have to focus movement, which I believe is better will 100% help with defending as those million skills movements just sent you AI defenders into outer space.

    Crossing seems a lot improved, when you low driven now it actually works, before passes would go wrong players, now they seem to go to the right players 99.9% of the time, like I said just 1 game in so far since update so will post another later, but this seems like an improvement.

  • yea this game was fun... i came back from holiday and play it again and like wtf is happened? absolute dog**bleep**...
