Why would anyone want to play this garbage??

The gameplay just isn’t fun. Playing rivals has turned into some of the worst gameplay ever and it’s all centered around making you spend as much money as possible..

There’s absolutely no skill involved anymore in the game. Ping decides who wins. Gameplay coding takes over and script these games to make you spend money. This totally affects the gameplay itself. You end up quitting every game you play because things happen in the game that are out of your control and have no business being in the game.

This includes defending or the lack there of. I don’t know how many times I make a tackle in a situation that I should be making the tackle and winning the ball 10 times out of 10 and I don’t get it or the ball bounces magically back to one of the attacking players who happens to be wide open because my own AI defending won’t mark them.

Passing in this game is just so terrible. The game makes you literally turn it over for no reason. A simple pass to an intended wide open player half the time doesn’t even go to that player. The game itself just can’t compute it, and it shows how outdated the coding and mechanics are in this game.

The animations in this game don’t work properly and haven’t worked properly at all for years.

Would love to play a game where I’m not playing against a hacker someone using a Kronos. I don’t mind losing, but when it’s evidently obvious that someone hacking and cheating and the fact you can’t report them infuriates me.

My feedback is EA, you should just build a brand new game from the ground up because it copy and paste stuff from past FIFA has just broken gameplay. Mechanics such as defending passing user switching are all broken and paying sides your gameplay experience.. everyone is just gonna quit the games because the game play is terrible

It would take years to bring a new game from the ground they simply won't do that

As for passing, try semi, it helped me.

Also disable crossplay, Ik pc players are annoying they have better performance

I also agree with the fact the defending needs to be tuned to help the defenders, it's too unbalanced rn

💯% 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

There’s no skill in this game they’ve taken it all out. It is all scripted.

For once, I’m just like for someone to be better than me when I lose instead of this scripted crap that this game is. It has become so obvious how scripted the gameplay is it absolutely baffles me.

This game is so scripted I’m so sick of being up more than three goals in a game and having all of a sudden the entire gameplay experience for my own players and AI change for the worse. Why is it that all of a sudden, my teams AI becomes so stupid. My passes don’t go to who I intend at all. all of a sudden everything is so slowed down and delayed. Obvious situations in tackles where I’m winning the ball and gaining possession, my players all of a sudden freeze and I lose the possession again leading to a goal. I have about the fact that I tackle three times in a row make all three tackles and a ball bounces off my defender all three times in a row and goes back to the same attacking player. I don’t know about you, but that’s clearly obvious scripting there. Am I not supposed to win the ball back when I make three obvious tackles in a row that should be won??? This game overcompensates and just ruins it. I’m OK if I’m outright getting beat by someone if they are clearly better. I’m not OK with the game itself literally intervening and making me lose when I’m up big. It’s gotten quite obvious how scripted this BS game is.

This game is just pure garbage. On every aspect. Do the developers even play this game because if they did or if they even cared, the gameplay would be different. For once, I would love not to give up a goal when I’m trying to pass the ball to one certain player, but the ball goes to a different player that is not intended. And it’s not my fault the power and direction on my end is correct but the game can’t simply compute that.

Hope they'll do something Div 3 gameplay is all the same lol
