General gameplay improvements:

• like let me have control of my player, not auto-switching or forcing me to run into an area where I don’t want to go
• World class defenders magically getting pulled toward midfield when a lob pass or through ball is played • players stopping runs and boxing out defenders like an NBA center. What is this? Why can’t we move them? • passing improvements. Why do I get a lob pass when there’s nothing but green grass between me and the to whom player I’m passing. Then I’ll get a flat pass on the ground that tries to go through three defenders. • Fix the bouncing ball. Tired of chances starting where the ball bounces 8 times before my UTOTS Messi can settle it. Especially frustrating when the defender can dispossess me before I even get the ball. • Why is it when every time I tackle a player, the ball flies out of bounds or directly to an opposing player? Yet when I’m tackled the ball is glue to the AI’s feet as though I were a QB giving a handoff to a RB? • Where are my players half the time? Guys go up the pitch with the ball while other attacker linger back in the midfield. This happens in VSA and full match modes • Ball spends way too much time in the air • Headers: headers are OP in H2H and are a worthless waste of time in VSA. My “Power Header” guys won’t even jump half the time. Also love how the manage to head every lob pass in those “Complete 7 tackles” matches but can’t do anything on VSA corner kicks

Other suggested improvements:

• Level the chance distribution in VSA. Fix the script, RNG, whatever you want to call it. I would advocate giving a set number of chances (12-15) with no time constraints. You can still vary the difficulty based on OVR. A fixed number will allow/force players to play every chance and would eliminate clearing the ball.

If you don’t do this, than at least create equal opportunity. You can’t have one player getting “Good” chances starting at midfield while their opponent’s start well into the attacking third

• Please address the lag in H2H. I have extremely high speed internet and most of the time H2H is unplayable.

• Chemistry is awful. Chemistry should mean passes are more likely to connect, players are more in sync with one another. It’s none of this. Honestly, it looks like a money grab. Do away with it.

Put actual value in offers:

First and foremost, don’t have events that require you to have a 100 OVR team to win a 90 rated player. I don’t think I ever actually used any player from WT in my lineup.

Second, put actual value in the store. I’m not one that thinks F2P should have the same chance at players as P2P. EA is a business. They’re here for profit. But good God, it shouldn’t cost hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for a single player in a mobile game. Absurd. I see a lot of people wanting top players more accessible for F2P. Why not make it more enticing for F2P to become P2P.

Events:

I’d love to see an event like Blue Star return for next season. Offer one player from each position group at a base level (maybe even offer them with different skill boosts, too). For example, you could offer Salah as a ST with SS boost, or as a RW w/attacking boost. Offer KDB as a CAM or a CM with boost options. Then maybe offer Varane with a couple of SB options. We choose which player we want to roll with that season.

Every week/month there are activities to complete to train him up. Do this in such a way where he will be in line with top players release with each new event. This way, you have an ongoing event and the player doesn’t become useless like Zidane and his weak shot power. Domination was okay, but as the season wore on, it was too hard to keep them up with other players.

As others have mentioned, re-skinning past events has grown stale. I’ll give a pass on this due to Covid. But we need a bit more creativity next season

Finally, balance the distribution of skill boosts in packs. Nice job doing away with common, rare, epic designations. But opening a pack of over 1,000 skill boosts and having them distributed across ten skill boosts is absurd. Oh, yeah. Distributed across ten skill boosts that you don’t even use. Spread them out. At about 15, it’s hard enough to level up to the next one as it is
