Yeah that's me done with FIFFA / FC for real this time. This Christmas holidays I have been playing games (Control and Cyberpunk) I have missed due to playing EA's shite. Enough
I'm sliding towards taking a break again. Gameplay feels utterly fucked in competitive. Vicious combo of not being able to get anywhere near any opponent to get the ball off them and when I do have it, me getting instantly pressed off three opponents and losing the ball within seconds. Driving me literally insane. Tried all sorts of custom tactics, too. Games broken. Every opponent the same few players, same outcome.
I only just got into div5 after my WL. It's like a switch went on. Every opponent is a pressing god and river dancing psychopath. Literally feel like I'm playing a different game to these people.
No, I can't get a win in Div 5 is what I'm saying, sorry. Champs was win some lose some, it is what it is, after the stress of actually qualifying I see it all as a bonus tbh. No. After that I had a promotion match, got into Div5 and boom, everyone's a god. VVD, De Jong, Eusebio, Mbappe. The Rats Choices.
I blame YouTubers but I feel your pain dude. They must laugh at the teams I put out sometimes. Yesterday I was using players for the multi-league objectives. One team was Schmeichel in goal and two each from all the major women’s leagues.
I guess I win 1 in 3 in Div 5 with my evolved Palace side (inc base icon Ian Wright and Ashley Cole, and radioactive Zaha).
The pressing is insane but, like Oli, I only run a basic 442. Scoring isn’t a problem but it has to be pass them to death cos I don’t have the pace to outstrip the defence.
It’s the scripted goals that do my nut. Not the cutbacks but the insane trivela/finesse shots from miles out.
Funnily enough, right on cue, there's a new patch out. Not holding much hope when all it's takes (still) to completely bamboozle my defence positionally is a single ball roll.
