Fix this absolute piece of garbage

How long till we get this piece of garbage fixed. 

Manual defending is hard enough but the amount of botched tackles is just stupid. This is the worst football game I’ve ever played. I’m genuinely worried a patch won’t be same to fix the direction the game play has gone down. Defensive AI  intelligence is non existent why does one defender drop back 20 yards from everyone else?! 
needing so many goals to win a game isn’t fun.

    They claim its "manual defending" but it really isnt, the issue isnt having the defending be more manual, the more the game is manual the better for me, as the computer shouldnt be doing all the work for you like in FC25, it was stupid, auto tackle, assisted shooting, assisted passing, litterly everything.

    However the issue with the defending is the AI, yes the AI are moving the defenders out of position, so its not manual at all as I spend more time trying to fix the mistakes that the AI are making, if I'm controlling my full back, I dont need my stupid CB running out to help and leaving the middle open, it makes 0 sense, if I want the CB's help I would either hold RB or select him myself.

    OR the other thing which is even worse is just 1 of my CB's will run all the way back to my GK and keep there entire team onside, beyond stupid, looks stupid on screen and just shouldnt happen

    At the moment the defending is messed up from the AI's side, I would be more than happy to do everything manually if the AI didnt keep messing it all up

  • I'm hoping that the increased speed of jockeying helps with manual defending, but I just don't see it. your opponent will play 4411 and use his cam/Striker to defend whilst his AI overload the box. Its ridiculous, partly I fault the community but I think EA's implementation of roles and tactics hurts the "competitive" experience as a whole. 

    I refuse to play this Jose Mourinho park the bus style and seemingly get countered all game due to this. Hopefully EA can right there wrong and somehow make the community play actual Football. Seems hopeless.

    yeah its painful on the eyes, as well as watching people move no were with the ball and just spin in circles the entire match like they are playing some ballet game and not a football one, its so bad.

    People will say its a "skill issue" but its not hard to do lol, we can all do it, some of us just refuse to as its boring and not like football at all

  • Its every online game. It’s just not enjoyable. Why play a game that’s not an enjoyable experience. I like football games always have. Play them all year. This is about to be uninstalled. Passing is just pathetic. Is so inconsistent for no reason whatsoever. Until there is a patch I’m done.

     If you pay for packs on this piece of trash you are mad. It’s such an unrewarding gaming experience. I genuinely hope EA are mainly behind their targets for this year because frankly it’s the only thing that will change anything. Seeing how negative the general response is from here and on socials they must be doing something because the game is being slated. 

    a huge overhaul is needed last year was by no means perfect but **bleep** atleast i could play that in all evening and actually enjoy it and want to play more. This i just want to put it down 20 minutes in. Says a lot really

    My players were moving 2 times slower than opponent's one. My defenders were running like they've got 5 PACE. My opponent's players were literally glueing to my player with the ball and making perfect tackles. All of my shots were blocked or missed(I scored two goals on almost empty goal).
