Sick of this

I AM SICK AND TIRED OF BEING PUNISHED BY YOUR BROKEN GAMEPLAY!

I am genuinely **bleep** fed up with this game.

At this point, FC 27 feels less like a football game and more like a collection of broken mechanics, random outcomes and completely inconsistent player behaviour.

I am constantly being punished for things that should be rewarded.

I make a clean tackle, only for the ball to bounce straight back to my opponent. I beat a defender, only for him to recover instantly and make some ridiculous last-second tackle. My players lose physical duels they absolutely should be winning, even when they have the superior strength, balance and physical attributes.

And the attacking AI is just as bad. Players constantly make completely stupid runs straight into offside positions, ruining promising attacks. They ignore obvious passing lanes, make the wrong movements and leave me with options that make absolutely no sense. Why am I being punished because my own players cannot make intelligent runs?

The physical battles are another joke. Players with superior stats somehow get bullied or lose close duels against opponents they should have the advantage over. What is the point of having attributes if they apparently mean nothing when the game decides otherwise?

Then there is the defensive AI. Defenders randomly abandon their positions, attackers feel slower than they should, and opponents seem to get endless second chances through rebounds, deflections and ridiculous recovery animations.

I AM SERIOUSLY BEING **bleep** PUNISHED FOR PLAYING THIS GAME.

I invest time and coins into building a better team. I buy players with pace, strength, technical ability and the attributes needed to compete. Yet my players constantly behave like their stats are irrelevant, while my opponent’s players seem to get away with absolutely everything.

This is not about wanting an easy game. I can accept losing. I can accept playing against someone better than me. What I cannot accept is a game where basic mechanics are so inconsistent that skill, tactics, player attributes and good decision-making often feel completely irrelevant.

Why should I spend hundreds of thousands of coins on elite players if they cannot consistently perform the basic things their attributes suggest they should be capable of?

EA needs to seriously investigate:

  • Rebounds and deflections after successful tackles.
  • Unrealistic recovery speed and last-second defensive tackles.
  • Defensive AI constantly abandoning its position.
  • Attacking AI making pointless runs into offside positions.
  • Players losing physical duels despite having superior attributes.
  • Inconsistent pace, acceleration and responsiveness.
  • The overall lack of consistency in how player attributes affect gameplay.

STOP MAKING PLAYERS FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHAT HAPPENS ON THE PITCH.

I am tired of feeling like I have to fight the game itself before I can even compete against my opponent.

Fix the gameplay. Fix the AI. Make attributes matter. Make player movement intelligent. Make tackles and physical duels consistent.

I AM NOT ASKING YOU TO MAKE THE GAME EASY. I AM ASKING YOU TO STOP PUNISHING PLAYERS FOR DOING THE RIGHT THINGS.

    I have successfully uninstalled this atrocity of a game. When the path to getting good at a game is to abuse everything that is broken with it then why do they even release the game at all. Free to play games would not be accepted if they were as bad as FC 27, yet they somehow get the masses to pay them for this slop. I wanted to play this game to relax and have a good time but rather I at times have been close to losing my will to live. My wife cheated on me this year and this game has made me more angry than that ever did.

     

    MAKE A DECENT GAME!!!!

    Game play is just trash. So many core fundamentals to a football game just dont work. 

    Passing, player switching AI movement for me are the big ones. Oh and the spinners.

    The most recent pitch notes shows how put of touch they are and the comical we are listening.  There a full thread of examples of the trash we have to play on this site which is now just getting ignored.

     

    Its clearly not fixable
