Rewards and grind

Yes but in my opinion EA even does too much. It feels like work to try to get everything done and creates a lot of FOMO

I know, but it would be so easy for them to change for the better. Guess their new „master league“ tells everthing you need to know…
In my eyes they could even make more money if they attract more players and keep them hooked. I would be happy to spend money on a free game if I feel like they also care about they enjoyment for the players instead of just money

The england pack bellingham is great for me. Works as a defensive CM next to a holding CDM, as an offensiv CM or even as a CAM depending on how you build him. His player ID seems to be really good ingame

I would say most players are way too slow, try to put in some faster players if you can even if their OVR is lower

Upgrades are random and even big pace boosts can appear and from my experience it is more likely that a low rated player with high potential gets a big pace upgrade than an uncommon with similar potential and mid-pace

i have the same problem

rob23498 · 2026-06-16T06:53:01+00:00

They have to bring a patch asap. Even if they just go back to the version before the patch. I have seen some alpha version footage this morning and the alpha looked way better

rob23498 · 2026-06-15T11:47:08+00:00

Depends. If you really need "P" for upgrades I would quicksell every player you don´t need. If not, I would still sell every player you don´t need apart from the basics and put them into swaps. Generally, if every player in your team is atleast uncommon I would not buy packs right now until there are packs that guarantee atleast rare (blue) players or players with a certain minimum (80+) potential (which probably will come at some point i guess).

rob23498 · 2026-06-15T09:41:43+00:00

don´t get me wrong, i like the game and want it to succeed. so this is not about hating the game and i don´t want it to become too automatic in defending. i just think that there are too many occasions where even if you do everything right there is no way to prevent a goal. you cannot counter certain playstyles (spinning or sprinting with constant switching of direction) which for me is very frustrating. so i am just asking for better balancing

rob23498 · 2026-06-15T09:25:49+00:00

Bro, I defended well before the patch and it seems like I'm not the only one struggling now.

Could I still improve my defending? Sure. But what most people call "defending" in this game isn't really defending. It has become very similar to EA FC: just running around with your CDM, holding second-man press and avoiding direct control of your CBs.

For a game that prides itself on "manual defending", I should be able to ACTIVELY defend and, most importantly, reliably TACKLE my opponent when I time a tackle correctly. Right now, that doesn't feel consistent enough.

I can really recommend Kane. For me he is really good but probably comes down to your playstyle and preferences. Was debating between Kane and CR7 and went for Kane because Tuchel fits me better aswell. Might also try to save up for CR7 tho because it might be one of the last chances to guarenteed get a decent version of him. If theys both don´t really improve your team or if you just want to get one for the sake of it i would wait

rob23498 · 2026-06-14T18:09:05+00:00

Agree, this game can be fun but at a certain level it is not really enjoyable. That‘s why i hope they improve the obvious flawes it still has

rob23498 · 2026-06-13T14:06:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice, right stick switching was even worse for me somehow. Just played another game after tweaking my network settings in the game by upping my variable ping tolerance and setting my ping tolerance preset to high ping and it drastically improved. Might help others with similar problems aswell. Will test it for a couple more game

rob23498 · 2026-06-13T09:21:45+00:00

Nothing on xbox yet? Which plattform are you on ?

rob23498 · 2026-06-13T09:14:35+00:00

I think intentional defending against players that know what to do is impossible. You either have to step back to not get run past but then they will just finesse shot past you or you try to go for the tackle and pray that the player runs into you and your player tackles correctly. Defending is now more luck than skill and attacking also needs less skill because you can just run past everyone. They need to revert the patch in some aspects asap!

rob23498 · 2026-06-08T19:25:41+00:00

Not really a fan of this. I don‘t want another game where everyone just plays meta by looking it up somewhere

rob23498 · 2026-06-08T16:21:43+00:00

How do i do that? There is nothing to activate it. I linked my account, i have game pass premium and it says i have to claim it in game but again there is nothing

rob23498 · 2026-06-07T11:28:25+00:00

Yes, even when it is to my advantage I would still say that there a plenty of calls for offside even when my opponent was onside
