EA SPORTS FC 27 – Extremely Frustrating Gameplay and Career Mode Issues

Dear EA SPORTS Support Team,

I am writing to express my extreme frustration and disappointment with the gameplay in EA SPORTS FC 27, particularly in Career Mode.

I have reached a point where the game has become so frustrating that I have actually broken my controller and headset out of anger. This is completely unacceptable for a game that is supposed to be enjoyable.

Here are the major issues I am experiencing:

  1. Unrealistic Shooting: Almost every low-driven shot (double-tap Circle) results in a goal. It feels almost impossible to defend against.
  2. Defensive AI: My defenders constantly leave huge gaps in the middle of the pitch for absolutely no reason. My defensive line opens up during matches, allowing the opposition to score ridiculously easy goals.
  3. Excessive AI Pressing: In Career Mode, the opposition presses so aggressively that the moment I win possession, I barely have time to control the ball before losing it again.
  4. Broken Through Balls: Through passes (Triangle) are extremely unreliable. Even simple passes fail to reach their intended targets, making it nearly impossible to build a proper attack.
  5. Unbalanced Gameplay: The opposition feels unrealistically powerful, while my own players struggle with basic passing, defending, positioning, and ball control.

I have tried adjusting my gameplay settings, but these problems continue to ruin the experience.

I am a passionate Career Mode player who has spent countless hours enjoying previous EA SPORTS FC and FIFA titles. However, FC 27 has become one of the most frustrating football games I have ever played.

I am not asking for the game to be easy. I am asking for it to be FAIR, BALANCED, and ENJOYABLE.

Please take these complaints seriously and investigate the gameplay balance, defensive AI, excessive pressing, and passing mechanics.

I would appreciate a proper response explaining whether these issues are being investigated and whether gameplay improvements are planned for future updates.

Sincerely,

A Very Frustrated EA SPORTS FC Player
