Equalizing mechanism and goalkeepers work
Yes, you're right; it's unbelievable that average, low-rated "nobody" players can score easy goals when faced the top goalkeepers. I could understand it if the latest top-tier cards were scoring against Buffon,Cech, Van der sar, but it's unrealistic for old, weak, obscure players to score just as easily against the game's best goalkeepers. I blame the game's balancing mechanism; they really need to dial it back. We upgrade our teams to get better—so that lower-rated squads don't stand a chance—yet players with 115-rated cards are curling goals past a 126-rated Icon keeper. These top goalkeepers would only truly make sense if only the best players or a perfectly crafted chance could beat them. It’s disheartening to see my performance and speed drop when facing a much weaker team—for instance, when my squad is 126 OVR and the opponent is 120, yet the performance levels out. This balancing mechanism is too much; it ruins the gaming experience. The game should motivate players by showing them they need to acquire better cards to keep pace with stronger teams. This whole mechanism is frustrating and annoying—not just for you and me, but for everyone. It would be great if they actually took feedback into account; players go to the trouble of finding this site and writing about these issues, so why aren't they being resolved?
