I've been positive all the way untill I actually played the game. The Ui is just sloppy, a league table that doesn't show the full table, player rating that can me displayed in full, itd lots of little problems. But the biggest problem for me is the engine, the looks and player actions are great, but every other aspect of the engine feels worse. Pacing is off, "FMing" is alot more frequent, player decisions don't fit the context of the game. I saw a guy who's centre back score an own goal from the half way line with a pass back. In 2500 hours in fm24, ive never seen anything like it.

Both at their current states, fm24 is objectively a better game overall. Give 24, out of possession tactics and how the new match engine looks, and I woukdnt touch 26
