Ground Penalties
I've been playing EA's football games since FIFA 13, and over the years I've seen many great improvements to the gameplay. Because of that, I'd like to suggest a feature that I believe would make penalties feel even more realistic.
One feature I'd really love to see return in EA FC 27 is the ability to take true low-driven penalties.
In the current games, even when you try to aim for a low shot, the ball doesn't actually roll on the grass. It always travels slightly above the ground, making it impossible to perform a real low-driven penalty.
This is something that eFootball does very well. In that game, you can actually hit the ball along the ground, creating much more realistic and varied penalty situations. It adds another layer of skill and makes penalties feel more authentic.
Football in real life has plenty of low-driven penalties, whether placed into the corner or hit with power along the grass. Having that option in EA FC would increase realism and give players more freedom in how they take penalties.
As someone who has supported this franchise since FIFA 13, I truly hope the development team considers bringing back true ground penalties in EA FC 27. It may seem like a small detail, but features like this make a big difference to gameplay, realism, and immersion.
Thank you for reading, and I hope this suggestion reaches the developers!
