Going to have to be honest. I think EA missed the point. We play this game because we want to play a football simulation game. I think what we are experiencing in the current game play in FC26 is actually the product of poor advice, they are simply exaggerating the skill mechanics that the ‘pro’ players like and I find it hilarious that none of these so called pros or streamers have the courage to call out EA on producing this ton of garbage. This is not a football game, it is really not. Why nerf long shots? Are they not a part of football too? Do they not have a place in football? If an opponent ever gave someone like Gabriel Batistuta or Steven Gerrard so much space to shoot range, there would be a high chance of them scoring, that does not echo in FC26, at all. Why make r1 dribbling so over powered? Hey, how many players in the history of the game had god given dribbling skills? (Every player in FC26 appears to have god like dribbling skills that, strange no?). So, so stupid. Even I myself feel bad and cheap and ashamed of myself for scoring these lame type of goals. Look, EA, stop pandering to every whim of your ‘clique’ like pro players. You are just making a game that you could improve each year by realising that the very foundation of the game is actually football and your goal should be to each year try to take a step closer to making the game as close to a football experience as you possibly can but currently, it appears that each year you try force us to play like last years pros, that is incredibly one dimensional, boring and restricted, soon only the ‘clique’ will be playing and this game will lose all its fanbase. Really bad this year.
