EA encourages time-wasting after taking the lead.

Last year, if it was 0–0 before the 30th minute, the match wouldn’t count. This year in FC27, leaving at any point instantly counts as a loss no matter what.

In the past, I’d blacklist players who scored one goal and immediately started wasting time with defenders, and if I ran into them again, I’d quit immediately. Now look—time-wasters not only escape punishment, they also get a FREE WIN. Good job.

EA always ignores player feedback. Last year in FC26, scores like 4–3 and 5–4 were already common; defending was already hard enough. This year in FC27, their decision is to nerf defending—as if EA has never cared about player feedback. 

The main reason is that there’s no real alternative—FC27 is basically the only decent football game on the market.
