Fc27 Gameplay

I have been buying this game every single year since FIFA 12. Every year, I play Rivals at Elite level, follow the EA Pro Ladder, and play Champions.

You have somehow managed to turn this game into the most disgraceful state it could possibly be in. You are not only taking our money — you are stealing our time, our hours, and the years of our lives that we have invested into this franchise.

And if you genuinely played this game, looked at what you created, said, “Yes, this is good,” and then decided to release it in this state, then may God curse you a hundred thousand times.

All we do is spin around in circles with the left analog stick like absolute idiots. You have turned the entire game into nothing but counterattacks. You have designed it this way so 12- and 13-year-old kids can play it, spend money, and keep feeding the system.

And the worst part is that there is no real alternative. God **bleep** it, we keep playing because there is simply no other football game that can replace it.

We are not playing because we love what you have created anymore.

WE ARE PLAYING BECAUSE WE HAVE NO CHOICE.

    Absolutely agree. FC 26 was good gameplay wise and it just needed some tweaks. Now they released this crap where you have a stroke when you need to pass the ball and have to defend 160 cm fidget spinners with R1 dribbling. I bought it with the hope that they fixed some small things from the FC 26 gameplay, but they released a brand new game which rewards spinning instead of creative plays. If I could get a refund , I would, but unfortunately - not possible.

    There is absolutely no enjoyment in this game anymore. Nobody is actually playing football. All we do is watch people make ridiculous, unnatural moves just to win, and it honestly looks pathetic.

    Have you ever seen Messi spin around in circles five times on the spot? How is that supposed to be a “meta,” or whatever you want to call it?

    Have you ever seen a defending team just stand there and watch while an opponent has the ball inside the penalty area?

    Can a football game really become this disconnected from reality just to cater to a younger generation that can’t properly control or understand the game, while also finding more ways to take their money?

    Trust me. I have played the whole weekend league this Sunday. Its horrible. It does not matter if you have Eusebio and Cruyff or Kika Nazareth in front. The only difference is the price - other then that they can all spin. The whole point of this year‘s gameplay is who is gonna be able to abuse this 0 skill meta more. 


    I played last year till mid April. The menu content and the overpowered evolutions were in fact bad, but I still enjoyed the gameplay. 
    This year its horrendous. I play this game since 2013. Never have seen anything like this.

    Game is hard joke. Ea, please match me against youtubers division 1, i am division 9. I Will easy win. Hhhh. This opoonents i rivals are glorius. 

  • Completely agree. Haven't played Champs since 2024 but I doubt it's any different to Rivals and Gauntlet. R1 dribble with an OP female player from the halfway line, get to the 25 yards out and start spinning around and around until she reaches the corner of the 6 yard box and then hit a near-post low driven shot. And repeat. And repeat. And repeat. On the plus side, our 14 year son, like many of his friends has turned his back on Ultimate Team and now only plays manager mode. That should concern EA, as they are future consumers who are losing interest in the franchise. And I doubt they're alone. 

  • I agree, it's sickening, especially comment on the "12 & 13 year old can play" in full agreement with that but it just sucks! They must create complete separate engine for under 15s so we know adult game as adult! Not some merry-go-round and rebound gaming..

    The thing is, my now 14 year old son and many of his pals are fed up with the franchise - they simply don't find Ultimate Team in particular, enjoyable.
