I m playing fifa since the first one.
According to me fifa 13,14 and 17 were the best.
It s been a long time that fifa and fc series are unbalanced.
Attack is full assisted and defense is a joke for every one who knows football.
Players can t learn defending because jockey defense L2+R1 is volontary too slow to allow attackers scoring a lot.
The defenders positioning is awful.
Too much space between them and they never press correctly the opponent.
The double pressing is useless.
Some players say, you must learn defending but you can t because you have not the right tools to do that.
Attacking is fully assisted, and the players don t get tired after pressing all the time, dribbling 5 time in a row and score a goal.
Ea s developpers UNBALANCED the game to make noobs happy and so they can be good UT packs consumers.
They will never change that unless EA lost money a lot.
Now there is 2 communities... with authentic and competitive gameplay.
That s a very bad thing because players can t play Online modes with authentic gameplay !!!!!!
EA should have made 2 gameplay possibility in EVERY mode.
With 2 world leaderboards, one authentic and one competitive.
I know that in real life a match last 90 minutes and 15 minutes in the game and it must be hard to find a balance but we all see since couples of years now that you unbalanced the game deliberatly to make attack stronger.
It s silly, stupide and you already lost a lot of money last year because of that.
In UT, you have to separate Men and women.
It s ridicules because the power is not the same, even with the same statistics.
It s biological !!!!
You have to do 2 UT with 2 world leaderboards.
One Men, the other for the Women.
I was a great fan of Fifa and since Fifa 18 you lost the love of football.
Maybe coders lost their skills too because of departure.
But now i think if fc 26 is not quickly updated, your game will be finish like a lot of EA s licence.
#Fc 26 is already dead

26 had the potential to be the best but EA are too spineless to not listen to timmies.

Defense is fine tho icl....
if we are already in a drop back meta, adjusting jockey speed will kill the game

It's AI slop

i agree that jockey needs to be a bit better to keep up with attackers. But then we gotta nerf the drop back and AI stuff in defense to balance it. Make manual defending rewarding
timid fjord

Here's the solution, nerf drop backs and anyone who drops back should have a harder time attacking or make players out of postion frequently.
prisma granite
At the start it felt decent and timing tackles was rewarding, now it feels punishing to use defenders as just sitting on dms is a better solution since the ai marks most of the stuff anyways
I am not for this gameplay but from a balance perspective, if jockey becomes better we are back to 0-0 games

i agree
anyone who plays low block should have poor mid-high press
and shouldnt be allowed to counter
its not fun attacking in a box where 9 players are stood

Yeah it was amazing but it was too hard for timmies they ended up crying and EA catered to them as usual, because they are the majority.
You will never make a good game if you keep listening to idiots.

Its just players refusing to adapt
Defending is significantly harder and thats good. But the solution cant be drop back counter
There needs to be some adjustment
timid fjord

I just played an a-hole with 8 in the box and it's so insufferable, even when I do break it, it doesn't matter, even scoring doesn't matter because they will do it again, they will score BS goals that I have no control over...
Because EA keeps rewarding those idiots.

I agree but they will never adapt, they want to ruin the experience for everyone else as long as they win

Hi bros,
I am totally agree with you.
timid fjord
They don't care about having a good game.

At the start it was good bc servers didnt have many people playing and people now quickly found out you dont have to anything pros are recommending you to not TACKLE and NOT touch your CBs
This is not good

yea which is why im aksing for changes
I changed my poll answer to the extreme option from neutral
because the def AI is too strong in the drop back
shy axle
Yeah it really is that bad i dont remember ea fc 25 being this bad with the park the bus

i pray for kick off
which is "fixed"
if i get early momentum and lead
if i see my opponent def
timid fjord

Yeah but also the core gameplay was better not just the servers because I can tell what's bad servers and core mechanics
prisma granite
i just run to my half and force him to break def shape
im in the lead, they need to break the shape, why should i give a counter
so thats what i do now
against the drop back rats
timid fjord

Now manual tackling doesn't work it all which is why I understand pros saying to not touch CBs...
It's all haram ball or letting the AI pressure or auto tackle, and that's beyond braindead.
prisma granite
Its not ideal but then again if i let them equalize they will defend for thier lives after so I need to force them to attack
I also feel R1 pressing needs to go
zero skill mechanic
timid fjord
They absolutely nerfed defending for the favor of AI/park the bus
prisma granite
specially with relentless+
just pick a high pace player with relentless+ and they can press u using ai while they sit back for like 10 mins straight
timid fjord
I also feel R1 pressing needs to go
I don't mind it but if it gonna go with AI defending then yeah I agree, both should go
prisma granite
IDM balance
like if that warrants removing player lock or something, cool
do it
def cannot be AI dominated
It should be player dominated
just like attack
the attack ai is shambolic
im almost always manually trigerring runs
and player locking
timid fjord
AI should only make runs and that's it

+1
The defending has been nerfed to the ground. Please make defending equally powerful compared to attackers.
Game has just become an unrealistic goal fest for skill and pace abusers as defending has been severely nerfed

Ea don t dare make drastical gameplay change.
Ea don t want to see players leaving their game.
So they lost themsleves with ridiculous update that don t change anything..
Updates unbalanced more and more the game sadly.
This game is about to die slowly.

Level the playing field and boost defenders, or make everything manual where attack is not inside forward, etc.. all runs needs to be triggered and defense is manual but jockeying speeds is increased to keep up pace
