#Inconsistent gameplay v1.1

Please accept my sincerest apologies to everyone I trolled or made fun of on Discord on Thursday regarding the v1.1 patch.

I was genuinely having a great experience with the game then and was wrong to use that as an excuse to mock or belittle anyone who was struggling or had a different opinion. It was poor form on my part, and I regret my comments.

I completely understand now how frustrating and inconsistent the gameplay can be. I was out of line, and I am sorry.

On Thursday evening after the patch dropped, the game felt extremely smooth—the best it has been. The player AI, especially in attack, was excellent: movement, positioning, and defending all felt responsive and good. I was genuinely impressed and even made a few joking comments here on Discord about others disliking the patch, which I now realize was wrong. I apologize for those comments.

However, starting on Friday, the game took a drastic turn and became almost unplayable.

The Current Issues:

The smoothness and responsiveness disappeared entirely. Now, I find myself:

Struggling to pass or even move the ball beyond my own half.
My players' AI is non-existent—they simply stop moving and stand still.
Every single counter-attack against me results in a goal.

The lack of movement and responsiveness is staggering, especially compared to the amazing experience I had on Thursday.

The core problem is the game's super-inconsistency. It went from being incredibly smooth and enjoyable on Thursday to a completely broken, horrendous experience on Friday. I'm genuinely confused about what could have changed so quickly.

The inconsistency makes it difficult to continue playing. Honestly, this level of volatility makes me feel this will be my last year with the game.

100% Agree they was a patch on Thursday and felt the best it’s ever been, passing, dribbling, shooting everything, it felt the most responsive Frostbite FIFA game I played in years went two divisions up. Then came Fridays morning patch… 1 day it took… and then Boom! Slow as hell, can’t outrun and beat people. I read my opponents balls but can’t intercept, everything is just not registering! I feel like I have to work 200% harder than my opponent. What the hell is this new patch! It’s back to Ai defensive block & intercept every ball… I just don’t understand why the game forces you to play in the wings like they is no build that works at all cause everything second man’s press and spam x

Their ai players just work at insane rates, the cpu assists are out of control

#

I just conceded one and quit, I could do nothing, my players were slow as heck and his players could outrun or read everything at the speed of light, I rarely ever experienced something like that

#

Maybe cuz I'm not playing on ethernet, I'm on wifi
Also maybe I forgot to turn crossplay off, I'll have to check, cuz playing pc means death

And that issue alone apart from any attack or defense or dribbling will never make this game skill based or fair

There's just too much cpu that's the problem
And it works based on connection and how weirdly inconsistent it is every year

Great work EA listening to the community and not just the sweats. Good update. A step in the right direction. But pls fix fidget spinners next.
Fidget sppining is still way too op and unrealistic. Defending against that is still impossible as it has been nerfed to the ground.
