Fix the **bleep** stamina!

I’ve attached a post that has 900+ upvotes on reddit regarding on how bad the stamina is… you need to fix this…. and don’t tell this is part of game plans… cause i only use defensive game plan yet every single player stamina is drained below 25% when they’re hardly being used

    I think you can do auto sub for that, but anyways this bs game is already out of anybody's hands..

    The subs situation is really very poor. Only having 3 was already bad, but now with this stamina issue its critical. However, making even 1 sub in-game is an absolute joke - you can try and rush it during a corner or a throw-in, but even then with the speed of the clock you're away for sometimes 5-10 minutes of game time, during which - guess what - the AI is so poor that you concede a goal. Making 5 subs in-game would pretty much mean you're not playing any time and just hoping your team isn't picked apart. Which is not why we play the game - there's Manager Mode for that.

    If EA insist on sticking with this stamina strategy, then they also need to do something that allows subs to be made without basically guaranteeing you'll lose the game. Time-outs arent really part of the IRL game but it would be a start here.

    I agree that it’s safe to assume that EA’s motives for altering the fatigue rate are purely cynical/self-serving. But, if they’re trying to drive more demand for players then they ought to have finally updated the sub limit to 5! It’s stupidity on their part to create rampant frustration (with players growing fatigued so rapidly) and then provide no remedy for it. It makes the user experience even worse than it already is, and does nothing but hurt their bottom line.

    I think the idea is to use subs as a strategy. Literally change your whole team for the 2nd half. Which means spending more money P2W or lowering Ovr F2P.
