This new patch made this game even more of a dribbling fest, and every mechanic for it is broken, so you have made the meta of the game to exploit obvious bugs. I am in the bottom of D5 rivals and people are spamming trickster as if its the only thing they know how to do. This franchise is dead, the fun has been taken out of it as the idiot people at EA, and probably people accepting feedback on this server, have only optimized the game for try hards. I hope the series dies at this point.

Yup. The pleasure has almost entirely gone from the game. I don’t know whether it’s EAs fault for just being blaise about quashing scummy meta tactics year on year, or whether it’s the communities fault for just lapping up all the YouTube boys advertising all those exploits. Just makes 90% of the games the same dull experience with players just using this games lowbrow easy win method.
Yawn

I think it's fine? No point in killing others joy too, lots of players want a more arcadey experience which was the Formula since forever.
The issue here is that EA made another mode called autenthic, and it wasn't implemented online which is a kick in the butt for those who prefer a more simulative experience
No point in changing the whole just cuz someone prefer a more realistic experience
You would rather just give every player the choice to play autenthic (simulative) or competitive (arcadey) online

#

So basically, both modes should be playable online
Which is a thing that the CEO hadn't ruled out, thank God

#

In an interview he said they want to monitor how things will go and maybe put the authentic online too later on

#

It’s not fine. Really.
Regular game scores of 6-8, 7 all, 6-5 are not football. It just devalues the feeling of achievement when you score.

errant junco
#

That is what the competitive mode is

soft harbor
#

But you’re right. I hope they make authentic available for UT. That would be a step forward

errant junco
#

Yea it does, I hope it will be implemented
It's not fair for those who prefer a more simulative experience
Especially considering no football game gives a nice experience online on the simulative side, which is lame

It won't be a thing, this game caters to the new gen and that's what gives them money, the default gameplay will always be arcadey (competitive)
The best thing they could do is to just treat the game as both modes are playable

If you like fast paced less realistic gameplay where how good you are with the sticks works the most, go competitive

If not, go authentic for a more simulative experience

But none should be discriminated for that tbh
FIFA FUT formula was never supposed to be realistic, take a look at other titles, FIFA 15 all super arcadey

#

Idk why they don't let players switch to authentic atleast for Online seasons doe, that is... stupid

hot nova
#

Yeah arcadey is a game that you can only play one way

#

Good argument

#

Strong argument

soft harbor

Which is -exactly- why it’s not football.

# hot nova Yeah arcadey is a game that you can only play one way

A guy quite literally did 15-0 with a bronze team
Dont act like there's no skill involved, it's just that you aren't good enough with the sticks, and that's OK, not everyone is fast enough, I struggle alot too

But for the first time in so many years they gave a less cpu assisted gameplay with responsive players and neat passing which is basically what everyone wanted and yet we complain
Surely some things could be changed but it's a step in the right direction, again, for those who like this type of gameplay

It would just be wrong to scrap everything cuz of some who like simulation instead, just bring both to the table and make everyone happy

I told you I'm not OK either with the fact they decided to put the authentic gameplay on offline modes only

I actually really like the shielding you can do with players now, which is definitely a step in the right direction. But defenders tackles, other then the slide tackle, has been totally nerfed.

And don’t even get me started with every goalie playing like stevie wonder

Dude, this game is garbage. Don’t let anybody tell you it’s not because it is so awful. those that say it’s not are just trolling because those same people are raging in their own privacy. They’re too embarrassed to even admit it to.

# high night Dude, this game is garbage. Don’t let anybody tell you it’s not because it is so...

Nah it has the strongest core mechanics since a while
Passing have never been this smooth, precise and fast, the gameplay is super responsive (don't talk ab server inconsistencies, those are sadly related to the fact EA won't upgrade their servers) but bad gameplay is so much better compared to the other titles, good gameplay however is amazing, the experience is smooth as heck.

The issue is not only the inconsistent gameplay (servers) that have been for decades now, but also the fact low blocks and defending issues are still a thing
Attacking AI improved compared to other titles but it's still subpar at best

Instead of ranting ab it all, we should give constructive feedback

It’s a miserable game to play. Everyone does the same fidget-spinner dance around the area. Every attack. It’s mind numbingly dumb.

It’s -almost- more fun going and playing squad battles where the AI makes for a more interesting game

Oh, and there’s been comments as to ‘this years game is arcadey, not a simulation. Well, isn’t Rush a perfect arcade mode??? There’s your basketball game, EA please return UT to a game the MAJORITY of people can enjoy, not just the top 5%ers who have custom super-spinning controllers and a catalogue of lowbrow Metas to spam

I think the dribbling part is fine. People like you r the reason the game was so bad last two years and sales were at all time low. Imo the problem is ai is still too involved in this game especially while defending. Learn how to anticipate and read opponents instead of letting ai do everything for you.

The gameplay sucks and has become so obvious in terms of how scripted the gameplay is it’s just terrible

#

Perfect example of the scripted gameplay. The other team has an attacking player and they’re holding sprint button down, runs into my own player my defender, right. My defender doesn’t move and somehow it’s a red card on my defender when my defender didn’t do anything. The attacking player was out of control and full sprint and it’s a red card for nothing… it’s stuff like this that the developers don’t get. It is not a card. It’s a foul on the attacking player and the ball ends up becoming a free kick for my teams or turnover in possession to my team. The developers wonder why people flat out quit games it’s because of crap gameplay like that.

💯% agreed

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

Only sweats are playing the game now as they continuously abuse the right stick. No casuals want to play this fidget spinner unless defending is fixed

soft harbor

^^^ this. The game is not enjoyable for casuals any more

# errant junco I don't think it's fine, you're right about nerfing automated defending and buff...

I get your point but then it would be just like FC 25 where every single player turns like a truck and you basically cant dribble inside the box to create chances. The only way to score would be counters but that ruins the fun of the game. Some of these women players play better than their stats i can tell you that much. Diani and pina should not be able to body vvd. I dont know if youve noticed but there isnt really much difference in the dribbling at the start of the game or at the end of the game..its just that players r different and stats r different but obviouslly if you use a gold messi during tots he will feel slow. But a tots saka in April will dribble the same as gold saka now. The stats dont mean anything imo. But i can see your point if you play on pc but my gameplay is soo heavy on console that i cant even fidget spin lol

# lament nova I get your point but then it would be just like FC 25 where every single player ...

I'm on console too, I don't think it's heavy, i can dribble quite well with Cristiano compared to last game, ik div 4 ain't much surely, but still
I swear this Cristiano moves the same as Ronaldinho in FC25 that's how bad FC25 dribbling was

Yea but that's the problem, there should be a difference...
FC25 is a bad example cuz everybody were trucks, but it's going one extreme to another, it should be more balanced

Yea true i have a feeling to make defending better they'll just make the ai positioning of these players stronger. What I hate is that when i try something in the box the cb is perfectly positioned to tackle me (even when the opponent is not controlling it).

errant junco
#

I think they should tweak the AI to improve manmarking and tracking runs, we can't select every player.
However tackles should have a limited radius, should rarely be automatic, dbp should just press, not tackle
And manual tackles should have the best radius, ofc based on how good defenders are

lament nova
errant junco
#

But yea the major problem Imo is ab strength
Women who bodies Van Dijk should never be a thing
The tradeoff is "small weak but agile" or "tall strong but clunky"

#

With some exceptions like Puskas

lament nova
#

My worry is that , how th do u even beat these sit back and defend rats with 9 players in the box constantly spamming offside traps and holding r1 press constantly

#

You just cant create chances in these kind of games especially in champs no matter how agile my players are
