Matchmaking Or Match Fixing

Are you a load of bull, EA GAMES.  I paid enough to play this game and yet I lose like no tomorrow! I'm on ovr 125 manager mode and I kept losing and losing to ppl over my ranks and below my ranks and you tell me it ELO MATCHMAKING!  And you all have the cheek to ask me to buy better players? See my squad and you know how much I spend!

STOP MAKING ME ANGRY SERIOUSLY! CHECK MY SCREENSHOTS AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF!

  • Yeah, your squad is significantly better than mine and I’d be pretty frustrated if I’d spent money only to encounter your experience (inconsistent gameplay is one of the main reasons I’m F2P).

    I hate to say it, but I experience the same thing when it comes to (1) horrific losing streaks in MM (like 1 win in 10 matches multiple times regardless of whether I’m above or below the level of my opponent); and (2) uneven/unfair matchups across all DR modes. In the first instance, I’ve tried not to get too annoyed by the results because MM is simply a useless game mode (where tactical settings don’t seem to matter a bit and where outcomes are more or less random). However, in the second instance, I’ve raised the issue on more than one occasion (because it occurs with some frequency across all DR modes) and asked EA to do something to limit matchups to opponents who are within +/-10. No confirmation from EA on the latter.
