Gameplay deep dive trailer is a disaster

This trailer is actually a disaster.

Dribbling is OP in 26 so now dribblers are even better because they can keep the ball even off-balance. Quick passing is OP in 26 so they make it even better, and players have better acceleration on 1-2s. Even shooting is going to be more OP. The "no playstyle high attribute" thing shows that they don't make playstyles less OP, they make "no playstyle" more OP.

Good luck enjoying manual defending when dribbling and quick passing is even more OP. People don't defend manually because it's just too hard because dribbling and passing is OP. I only defend manually (never found AI defending any good, don't know what I'm doing wrong), and it's hell. How is it going to help to make defending harder and dribbling/passing easier?! What was needed was an offense nerf and a defensive boost. Not the other way around.

Just look at some clips from the video. Through balls are as OP as ever. Defending them is impossible. All the clips are the same: through ball through ball through ball.

Defending will be impossible, people will complain (rightly), and after a week or two, EA will boost AI defending to compensate. And the problem will be the same as before. Instead of actually taking care of the real issue: OP OFFENSE.

The truth is a problem apparently. We're allowed to give our opinion ONLY if it's positive. Well it's not. And I'll keep posting this as long as you'll delete it, because it's my opinion, and it doesn't break any rule. Yet it's been deleted 3 times already.

  • I think the biggest issue we've had is the elite level of players hate AI defending whilst the lower division players (like myself) prefer having a stronger defensive AI. I'm concerned with them nerfing the AI because I feel like I'm already bad at tracking players and timing my tackles. As if that wasn't enough, I also dislike how the attackers can hold onto the ball despite well-timed tackles being made. But... I guess we'll just have to see how well they've done this upcoming year and hope the gameplay isn't being changed constantly.

    Cheers!

    That's the key thing here. As long as people "buy to see", they won't improve anything.

    FC27 will be without me. Even the promotion of it, what is supposed to make me want to buy it, is a disaster and doesn't make me want to buy it
