After the latest updates, the game has become extremely boring not only for me but also for many people in the community. A lot of my friends have already started switching to other games.
During the first week after release, the game felt amazing. I’m sure your internal statistics reflected that.
Many situations in the game feel completely predetermined. I can tell several seconds before it happens when I’m about to concede a goal. From low driven shots to impossible passes through defenders these moments no longer feel skill-based or realistic.
In real life, there is no world in which a 79-rated female striker consistently breaks through defenders like Koundé, Rüdiger, or Saliba with multiple through balls and scores. It feels scripted and repetitive. In the beginning, I could play for hours, but now after just a few matches I feel exhausted and switch to another game. This also removes any motivation to buy FC Points or invest. Not doing it anymore.
The game after the last patches feels completely different from what you initially launched. I don’t know what your internal strategy is, but players are already getting tired and bored, and long-term this will not be good for the game if things don’t improve quickly. I’m referring to the passing style, the meta formations (which are the only viable ones), and the fixed patterns that repeat over and over.
A few years ago, you could play multiple formations and still compete. The difference was made by star players—Cristiano Ronaldo could score from 30 meters, while now female players can do that, and Ronaldo sometimes can’t score from 7 meters. It just doesn’t feel realistic.
There are too many situations that would never happen in real football. Through balls, turn-backs allow players to spin in circles for 3 minutes, something that would never happen in a real match. The game currently feels arcade-like, and it’s normal to see 7–8 goals within 20–25 minutes of in-game time, which is extremely unrealistic.
