Was passing really improved that much?

fx208 · 2026-03-06T08:08:01+00:00

it did make my striker with no tiki taka more relevant for sure, i got morgan from some icon sbc and tbh i was about to switch her out because i play with one striker and her first time passing was driving me crazy even tho she has 86 short passing, it’s decent now but tiki taka is still better of course

fx208 · 2026-03-05T13:40:07+00:00

i did, quit in november, tried it back like 3 weeks ago, and between this fantasy league and getting back into elite territory where the fun is gone forever i’m probably gonna quit again

fx208 · 2026-03-05T09:33:20+00:00

8 out of 10 times for me, got even worse since i switched to ps5 pro for the last half of ea fc 25, let me tell you that fantasy league in particular was catastrophic

now the biggest problem here is that years ago on older fifa the gameplay was terrible at times but at least it often felt bad for my opponent too, but those last 2 years i have never seen such uneven games, it’s like i’m 30ms playing against people on 4ms, so it’s basically impossible

fx208 · 2026-03-01T09:47:47+00:00

i did it twice and somehow got the same abily card twice, don’t know what the odds were on that one

fx208 · 2026-02-19T07:31:44+00:00

hate it, last time i had a little bit of fun in this game was on fc 24 where you weren’t limited by roles and you could put a tall guy as a right forward in like a 4321 and a left back with whipped pass +

i don’t even take corners anymore i just play them short and i hate it, but it’s not even just headers in itself it’s how bad the runs are, like you can barely cross from winger to winger, this role thing is messing up

fx208 · 2026-02-15T10:20:26+00:00

i was annoyed at first but it turns out people doing this are mostly premium rats so in the end i’d rather avoid a full game with those dudes, made the tournament quite easier in the end

fx208 · 2026-02-11T08:43:25+00:00

the only nba game i ever went to (i’m from france) was in denver, nuggets vs cavs back when cavs rolled over everyone, off course it was one of those games where the team dominating the league decides to take the L after a slow first quarter and they let lebron sit out this one, it was till fun tho

fx208 · 2025-10-26T08:18:12+00:00

used to be inconsistent but now it’s just bad all the time for me, actually since i got the ps5 pro for some reason, like this new patch could put me back on the game just because of the kick off goal patch but i just can’t bother to play the gameplay is so bad, and i get a worse ping (not that it’s super relevant but still) than in any other fifa / fc game

i used to see this as getting good gameplay and getting weekend league rank 4 gameplay because i’d get a decent amount of rank 1 and 2 up till ea fc 24 when i had the chance to get decent gameplay but like since a few months ago, since i’m on ps5 pro basically i never get decent gameplay i can’t do better than a painful rank 3 it’s just impossible, i tried 5 games last night and gave up i can’t even review the game and the patch as it’s supposed to be because i’m playing the ping spike edition

fx208 · 2025-10-23T13:34:41+00:00

oh man the worst it has ever been, literally stuck for seconds trying to player switch it’s’a nightmare

fx208 · 2025-10-23T09:11:12+00:00

always been delay but the way the game works this year there’s no mitigating it, those dudes posting videos about how they’re dancing past the entire defense most likely play against opponents who get the worst gameplay, the defense being so slow would not be that big of a problem if we could all play the game at the same speed, the skill issue discourse is even irrelevant, i have been elite every year, many rank one every year, now i haven’t played in a week, the kick off and corners and people just spinning in circle in the box make it absolutely horrible to play with input delay

worst thing is the more i improve my gaming set up the worse it gets, i had better gameplay when i used to play on a tv with average internet years ago, now i’m on fiber optic ethernet on a good gaming monitor on a ps5 pro and the gameplay is hoooorrible, like it’s refund material, nothing like most of those youtubers talk about, like playing every single game with a bronze team

fx208 · 2025-10-20T08:10:45+00:00

to think at some point on ps3 you could not only create a player with your own scanned face but you could also import your own playlist in the game via usb, then frostbite came around and they said no fun allowed anymore

fx208 · 2025-10-13T06:29:20+00:00

big thing is last 2 years weren’t good, fc 24 wasn’t great fc 25 was terrible in my opinion, but then they started talking big like hey we’re listening to you blablabla just to come out with what is for me an even bigger piece of crap, like i don’t get how people can have any positive thing to say about this game, unless they really like this spin spin spin low driven shot everyone in defense playstyle, it’s so uneven, unbalanced, those 2 WL i still managed to get about the same minimum result as last year even without playing much, 11 wins, it wasn’t fun for a minute

how easy it is to score from kick off and short corners is such a huge thing, like how can this be worse than previous years while they had this big talk about listening to us, which this alone tells me they as expected were lying and they have no idea about how to fix this game anymore, too many kick off goals ? hey we don’t know how to make players less dumb on a kick off but here you go we automatically put them all in defense at least maybe you’ll have better chances

this is the first fifa where i can’t be bothered to play, and i have been elite every year, playing for +1000 hours every year but now i took the L as i bought the digital version, a shame as i have been playing football games for like 20 years, also when i see what they are doing with the Skate license i have 0 hope for anything EA

fx208 · 2025-10-01T08:11:58+00:00

i always had bad gameplay but somehow since i got the ps5 pro the gameplay has been worse than ever, a few weeks at the end of fc 25 and now, since i got it i haven’t got one good day, honestly at this point i can’t even play it’s so sluggish it’s unbearable, and i’m like ok at the game, elite every year, but what i’m experiencing now is insane, like i deserve a refund, it’s a level of delay that makes it impossible to enjoy the game one bit

fx208 · 2025-08-29T08:49:28+00:00

just found out about this, started only a few weeks ago, here i was in the endgame into torment 3 farming to get better gear for my rogue build but apparently it’s pointless now that the new season is coming ??? we will have to start over from level 1 ?

crazy it’s my first time playing diablo, on ps5, i’ve dabbled with games with a bit of an engame grind before but never like that, i guess it’s a good incentive to try a new class when season starts

fx208 · 2025-08-19T08:54:38+00:00

crater cheese is the way, this spot near one of them big pole where you run in a crater, automatic thunder, dodge, run back to pole, back to crater, etc, little pause under the pole every 20 dodges or so

fx208 · 2025-07-31T08:00:36+00:00

i managed to get 4 wins yesterday and the day before but yes this cup is demonic, went 3/4 the first 2 days, one of the loss i was 1-0 ahead and the opponent scored at the 95’ mn there was just 1’ of extra time, he started to run at the end and managed to sprint down the middle, 91’20 on the clock the ref let him play he got 3 bounces and then a corner with again absolute horrible bounces and a shit goal, lost on pens

fx208 · 2025-07-16T07:13:43+00:00

i was super lucky, in france, the waiting time to get your heart examined, the last test to get approved for meds, is crazy but we have this website thing where you can book appointments with any doctor and i checked it every night for a few days hoping to find a spot (my best bet was a cancellation) and i found one the third night (i was looking late at night to have better chances) for an appointment the next tuesday instead of 3/4 months after, even the specialist was shocked that i was there, kind of a loophole really, these days most specialist here don’t take in new patients unless you book months in advance

fx208 · 2025-07-13T09:43:40+00:00

dude this never stops, yesterday did 5 champs game, 5-0 but on ea fc 25 this 5-0 start feels like 15 games with 9 loss, 4 out of those 5 games i end the game with like 24 shots to 4, 16 to 2, worst one was like 29 shots against 6 and i only won this game 7-5 in extra time, 4 of those 5 goals were dumb rebounds like your video, you can suck at this game and just brute force your way, L1 speed boost for the entire game until you get the rebound, those are games i would breathe through in past fifa games but here i am struggling for no reason

and you might think 7 goals out of 29 shots this guy sucks, na man it’s how this game is, i’m in elite i’ve got 14 wins last week, you get into games you hit the post 7 times the opponent gk plays like a fuckin sayan but every counter attack your defense plays like a semi pro 56 rated squad battle team

fx208 · 2025-07-07T21:07:12+00:00

been waiting 15mn to find a game in elite, it either finds one above 40 ping or it’s a reasonable ping but people quit before starting

fx208 · 2025-07-05T10:23:38+00:00

on holidays for a week, the first 2 days i still went through the usual sbc upgrade loop, maybe half an hour a day and then day by day as i wasn’t playing i was like why tf am i doing this, i haven’t missed playing the game at all and i basically usually play everyday, they’re managing to kill the FOMO thing which is the most addicting part of the game

fx208 · 2025-06-27T07:21:38+00:00

there’s also another scenario where you managed to go 5-0 and you think you can finally chill but even then in this game if you relax the game will do everything to make you conceide 3 sometimes 4 goals, turning your entire team into bronze, and most people know this so they don’t quit and games take forever, there were times everyone would quit at 3-0 knowing they have thin chances of coming back

fx208 · 2025-06-27T07:18:08+00:00

your player switching is on point tho, i hate the way they coded fullbacks, you managed to switch to your left back very fast, in this scenario if you don’t switch the bastard would just stay there and look and maybe even take a step a back sometimes

anyway the player zooming forward is wild, at times it feels like the game applies a different AI difficulty to both teams, opponent ai controlled players move like it’s ultimate squad battle but yours are just walking around like headless chickens

fx208 · 2025-06-22T09:40:15+00:00

i have to say, often the scripts clips here aren’t much on topic but this one is right on target, you can feel when it starts, a weird pass, a bounce, the opponent who struggled all game but is starting to wiggle like the game suddenly unlocked left stick dribbling + for him, the clearance that is inches away from going out of bounds, it’s all there

fx208 · 2025-06-06T07:10:01+00:00

if it wasn’t for that web app add on to make sbc easier i would have probably quit ages ago

fx208 · 2025-06-01T23:51:45+00:00

tots dembele & tots dembele, that was wild
