Fix the game
Dear EA Support and Executive Development Team,
I am writing to formally lodge a comprehensive complaint regarding the unacceptable state of gameplay in this year’s installment. As a dedicated consumer who expects a functioning, premium sports simulation, I am profoundly disappointed to report that the current iteration of the game has reached an entirely unplayable state. Due to fundamental failures in core gameplay coding, the product no longer functions as a fair or balanced competitive experience, resulting in immense frustration and anger every time I attempt to play.
The catastrophic breakdown of the game can be attributed directly to several critical areas that require immediate, drastic intervention from your engineering and development teams. First and foremost, the programming governing goalkeeper behavior is utterly broken this year. Keepers routinely fail to execute basic animations, completely ignore oncoming ball trajectories, and concede inexcusable, low-effort goals. Instead of acting as a reliable last line of defense, they have become an active liability on the pitch, entirely stripping the game of its competitive integrity and making defensive efforts completely pointless.
Furthermore, the passing system has deteriorated to a level that completely defies logic and ruins the flow of match play. Manual inputs, direction, and power filtering are consistently overridden by flawed assistance algorithms, resulting in constant turnovers that are entirely out of the player's control. Accurate build-up play and strategic passing sequences have become a statistical impossibility, which entirely destroys the tactical depth and skill gap that should define the game.
When core mechanics like passing and goalkeeping fail simultaneously, the game ceases to be an enjoyable piece of entertainment and instead becomes an exercise in sheer exasperation. The unpredictability and unfairness of these mechanical flaws do not reward user skill, which induces genuine anger and alienation across the player base. In its current state, this product is fundamentally unfit for purpose. The community cannot be expected to tolerate the current state of play when the foundational pillars of the experience are this severely compromised. I strongly urge your development team to officially acknowledge the severity of these flaws and deploy an immediate, comprehensive title update to salvage what remains of this game's lifecycle. I expect a formal response detailing how EA intends to rectify these systemic issues.
