But then we have to play with 4 other random people on our team, we just want to be able to play us 2 against another human online at different houses. Is this fuctionality coming in the future because its really not fun having to play with an entire team of people and not just us 2. People have been asking for this for years, you used to be able to do the 2 on 1 remotely years ago. Seems like you guys really dropped the ball on this one, reason why i havent purchased any of your sports games in years. Spent so much time adding gm mode where i dont even play the game just upgrade concessions when you could have been building rhis functionality people would actually use

I had the same problem with this. I have a brother and nephew that live 1000km away and my 2 sons and I would like to be able to play online and with the 5 of us, have the option make up an entire line to play against the AI. It seems like it would be a no-brainer to be able to have more than 1 person on each end play a game together online WITH FRIENDS instead of being stuck with random people. Does EA think their users are just a bunch of loner hermits with no friends so they only have the matchmaker mode? This makes no sense whatsoever
- Ya you basically have to make an eashl club then invite your friends to the club and you can only play with one player the entire game no switching players but u can play with friends. To play other friends youd have to have your friends make a different club and play the clubs against each other its pretty ridiculous, i dont even think ea tests games anymore, i got rory golf and its terrible
ya rory is horrible.......BUT
its not hard to make a club and play with friends in NHL.....thats not ridiculous!
That helps a bit if you can play against friends in eashl (haven't tried it yet), but if I understand correctly, it's still limited to 1 person per console, is this correct? What I would like to see is the ability to play with 3 or more people on 2 consoles and be able to choose whether you're locked into a position or your control switches between players. I just don't understand the thought process behind the decision to not include that. If you can play a specific user 1v1 online, and you can choose friends online to play in eashl, why can't you choose friends and play online either vs or co-op in the Play Now mode? Maybe there are logistics issues with programming that prevent this?
- In eashl you have to play as one player and one position the entire game, you cant switch positions. There is a way to play with a guest on your own ps4 against other people online just not sure if you can do it vs other friends. Ya it is awful, never understood why me and another friend cant play against 2 other friends all on different ps4s online and be able to switch players. EA had thos back in 2010 etc but it seams like they just rush games out now to make money instead of quality games, which i understand since theyre a business but i think eventually people would get fed uo especially when some other competition breaks into the market, EA can get away with making these lack luster games and modes since there isnt any competition right now. Good luck my best recommendation would be eashl, it takes a while to understand the convaluted process of making a club then manually typing in invites and showing your friends how ti make clubs but it s pretty much the only way
