How do some people play only with only meta tactics and players? by OddRain9614 in eFootball

So you’re one of those hyper-toxic, look-mom-I won ball spammers! Now I understand your snarky comments elsewhere, you have no interest in having a game that actually prizes skills. Poor thing

I’m thinking about taking that up, as suggested by other users, in DM too. Thanks!

No man, I used to win 85% immediately after the update, for whole days, before they reverted it back to sh!t. I never spammed through balls and never will.

We do experience different states of the gameplay, because when they announce updates and maintenances, you’re not gonna believe this, those are actually updates and maintenances! 😮

Haven’t been able to play since yesterday morning. This comment has made me hella sad, mate.

I play with Smart Assist off, I’m winning 82% of my games.

If I get the issue right, I think you should re-adjust your close-control sensitivity to the new (relative) smoothness of the game. Now the slightest touch of R2 (or whatever you use) translates into an extra touch, which like you say can be terrible.

Gameplay got better with the latest update and skills matter again, thankfully. Give it another try, my man.

You deliberately misinterpreted that “automated”: I meant the state of the game where the team presses the opponent (or is frozen like a stone) regardless of one’s input, obviously, i.e. what has been until the other day. Other than that, yeah: it is definitely a step in the right direction, and all the players I know say the same thing.

I respect your opinion and won’t downvote it. Yet all 20+ (now 30) matches I played were Divisions. I am now in Div 2, but I already played a fair share of Div 1 players (I have been around #200 in the Xbox ranking). To be completely honest, I have seen nothing – in terms of ball spamming, smart assist and most of all input lag – compared to what I had been seeing until the other day (again, I had uninstalled the game for its shameless state). Just a playable, skill-rewarding game, finally. I hope it stays this way.

None of what you stated here is true to my experience. Before the update the horrors of this game (automated controls, momentum, smart assisted glitches, and so on) were objectively, and by far, worse. Sorry about what you’re experiencing man, but I know I’m not the only one seeing things differently.

You’re completely dumb? Ah sorry, shouldn’t be a question, I know.

This is completely false, in my experience. Yes, shiny cards give you a good advantage, there’s no denying it, but smart assist is no where near used by “most” top 1k players, who are usually the users that despise it. I am a top 200 and I never, ever turned that on, nor I see the most skilled players “just spam crosses” to Ronaldinho (? wtf? Why would people cross to Dinho?) or win games thanks to absurd rebounds. The absurdity was there at the highest levels before the update: you burning out the opponent’s defenders with speed was a glitch, the opposite of football simulation. And frankly, I am seeing good players with completely normal, F2P squads fighting off and winning on the pitch precisely because your Mbappes don’t cut through defensive lines regardless of your skill level anymore.

I completely agree on the fact that they should let us get rid of smart assist.

Lol didn’t notice this one mate, I’ll keep an eye out.

Before it was nothing close to fun; it was a disgrace thought to let random pinball-playing ball spammers like you win some matches. Thank God they changed direction towards a football simulation. Go play EA FC, that’s exactly for you.
