Nerf Milincovic-Savic
I don't care how many Milincovic-Savic fanboys there are within the development team for this game, but you guys seriously have to nerf him. I'm all for good yet affordable players but this has gotte...
Forum Discussion
Let’s have a quick breakdown of what you’ve said:
1. "It's a paradox mate.. u R asking for realism and still want players to play according to stats."
→ Don’t get my point twisted, mate. I didn’t say I want full realism; all I said was EA shouldn’t exaggerate one player’s stats beyond logical balance. There’s a difference between realism and consistency.
But then, should EA not keep to their promises? When you sell players a product that performs differently from what’s advertised, doesn’t that start looking like a "financial scam scandal"?
2. “If Vanja plays well and his stats are magnified by his height, you complain it's not real world.”
→ Sure, height should help, but EA coded him like a 2-meter octopus with lightning reflexes. The issue isn’t height, it’s the excessive boost, not the concept itself. If he must be this good, then other icon GKs and modern GKs that have higher dives and stats should outperform him far better. It is logic, not fantasy.
3. “You raise about Campos, I used him, played against him and he is not as good as you suggest (atleast compared to real world). ”
→ That’s subjective, but again, my point wasn’t that Campos is better in all scenarios, Oliver Khan who is short, Iker casillas too... Are we going to say they too don't have to be superior?
My point is that EA ignores basic physics logic: shorter goalkeepers are naturally quicker to reposition, while taller ones have more reach but less agility.
4. “EA in the name of realism makes u loose some if U R on a winning streak where Ur players do so badly or won't respond to controls.. so probably u hit one of those patches.”
→ That’s basically admitting the game uses artificial interference (DDA), the very thing I called out as scripting. 😂
5. “...... you are angry a 300shard card performs better.”
→ Nah, that’s not even my issue. My gripe isn’t with Vanja being cheap; it’s that his performance breaks the balance and devalues every other GK, including icons.
Hope I've been able to clarify that better.
The 3 stats I would look at in a GK are Height, Handling and Positioning in the same order. If you pick any player with better stats on these 3 they perform better, that's just my understanding of how the game works.
Vanja has advantages on all 3 of these but I don't see him as much of a unplayable threat.
Realism comments were mostly from the other guy but you did quote real world performances of GKs in your first post and when u say consistency you do mean against their real life personas right. All I am saying is the game doesn't work that way (Ex: Madonna/Pele no way as good as they were in real lives). And I personally don't support EA spending resources in making it that way, rather they should work on countless issues around first touch, poor passing and cross spamming.
I see your point but don't see much value, that's it. You have put it as discussion, so I chimed in, if this was a feedback I would have just left it unanswered. Its up to EA though, if such thing is possible and they prefer to do it, so be it. People will adapt and move on.
