Unplayable Squad Battles

100% agree. Squad battles is currently an AI slide tackle generator where they get the ball every time. Then pass it around constantly, and if you try and get across to them, they wait until the last second and pass it on. I’ve gone from being challenged in legendary, to barely being able to get 40% possession on World Cup. But if you play professional, you win 10-15 nil. Playing the lower teams on legendary results in bronze players that can outpace my wingers, and muscle through my centre backs. To get the ball back, you have to not do any inputs and wait for them to get close enough to your player to get the ball back. But most of the time, they respond to your input instantaneously.

It’s supposed to be a beginner mode, but it’s sweatier and harder than champs. My son now refuses to play squad battles and will likely stop playing at all.

 The aggression needs to be turned down significantly in the harder modes. 

How many time i get 1-1 and go on prolongation after that the miracle the difficulty change they stop tryhard and i win easely 5-1.

how many time i play the team have 70gen 0chem all bronze they dont miss any pass any tacle and my player have 90speed get beat by the bronze 30speed, or my defense like van dijk or konate get moved physically and speed by a little girl.

how make sens i win easely vs a squad 88 full chem and i try so hard on the team full bronze ?

how many time i dribbling 3,4,5 time in a row left side and right side the same guy and he don't care he follow you like a shadow.

i think everyone has noticed that they don't react at all like humans, which is quite normal but now the most frustated in the game vs AI ,is he doesn't react compared to what he sees but to the keys you press before your player reacts in games

i love the long shot but in this game i can't how many time i try it my player he didn't start the animation while I see the AI rushing on me to counter my shoot im on 30+metter how do you know i want to shoot in this position ????

how many time you try to tacle and he juste turn on the right angle at the right moment ?

so this is why if you win or lose its because the AI decide this not you.

Still no response to this, surprise surprise because it’s not the competitive community raising it. I swear it is getting worse. The screenshot included was against a 77 team on legendary. This would formerly be a 10-0 win, however currently it’s ridiculous. The AI spent the majority of the time retaining possession in their half, passing the second you tried to tackle. They never missed an interception or tackle, even though the defenders were silver. Their 80 rated goal keeper made absolutely ridiculous saves against Leao with 99 shooting. 

this mode used to be great for beginners, let you try new formations and tactics. But now it’s absolutely sweaty and 100% the worst mode in the game. My son now refuses to play squad battles, great job
