Great game, yet unplayable. Same issues.
I dont wish to write a novel here griping about every little thing I don't like. Sure, passing could be much better but I'm sure there will be better cards we can "grind" for later that offer magical passing abilities compared to the lot of players currently available. My teams pretty decent so passing isnt that bad anymore.
My only concern at this point is... wait for it... SCRIPTING! I dont know why we tiptoe around this idea like its not real. Its not RNG and fatigue when a faster player fresh off the bench gets outrun by slower players who are at 60% fatigue running WITH THE BALL.
There's clearly a game mechanic that controls and changes gameplay throughout the game depending on situation. Not directly related, but I would bring up Squad Battles as proof. You can play a team of icons on Professional and dominate. That makes sense given that the AI is playing at a lower difficulty. However, look at the times you play an all Bronze squad, whose keeper is a Bronze ST, no Gold subs, on Ultimate. Why are the Bronze players all of a sudden faster, quicker, and fatigue is a non factor? Players attributes dont change because the user is better. That Bronze ST/keeper plays out their mind and stops everything.
Now compare that to playing Champs and being up 5 goals but losing. Ive been on both sides of it and I paused playing Champs earlier after I won in similar fashion 5-3 in OT. I couldn't enjoy it. The guy quit and I felt his pain. He played better than me, I made mistakes, got a patented 90th minute goal to tie and scored twice in 5 mins of OT like his players weren't there.
Stop the scripting already! If I'm going to get beat 13-0... let it happen. I need to get better. But when Im better, stop making players miss close shots, make the losing team keep possession after being tackled, weird mechanics... its OBVIOUS. If you dont know this phenomena, you dont play the game. Been happening for years and FC27 is no different.
Let good players win and lesser players, like myself in some cases, compete with players of our caliber. If I get crushed in Champs, so be it! There's other modes to enjoy. This participation trophy style, level the playing field, situation-based mechanics is ruining the game for everyone.
Let them play Rush or something. That modes full of bots. I coach little league and it looks no different. 8 players chasing a ball. At least let Champs and Rivals be competitive!
Sn: I have tons of clips of FC issues. Not glitches but the game performing strange in certain situations. Especially the 45th and 90th minute. If the response is "show me", you're trolling. Play the game and see for yourself or look at endless examples online. But further denial is simply gaslighting your community. We understand gamer retention but your "management" of it makes us not want to play at all.
