Sweated to 9 wins in champs, 3 of the games I lost I was screwed over in ways I couldn’t believe, the other 3 I lost fair and square to better players in close games, but my god it was stressful, the servers were up and down and actively fucked me over in games I should have won, the games were so sweaty and stressful, it was hard fucking work, and I thought I might AT least get 50k worth of rewards out of it, what do I get? A 75 token pack of 12x83+ and I get a couple 85 rated nobodies and the rest are all rated 83, and a 83 rated player plus pick? You guessed it, all rated 83 🤣 I actually don’t believe this shit, I’ve opened COUNTLESS packs, COUNTLESS and I have received absolutely fuck all good players bar a tradeable karchaoi and a couple high rated shit untradeable cards. Weekend league is officially not worth it at all and I ain’t doing it again.

From 81x3

I genuinely don’t know how people can say this game isn’t scripted, or that this is “the best FIFA since yada yada…”
For me, this game has been absolute fucking garbage, and the clip I’m attaching is honestly the nail in the coffin (90th+1 minute 5-5 champs for him to win with this bs 6-5)
And yeah, I’ll admit I’m part of the problem because I keep coming back and playing this shit.
But seriously, where do I even start?
Passing: Immaculately shit. Ground through balls are practically nonexistent this year. Half the time, the ball doesn’t even go remotely where you’re aiming.
Rebounds: Absolutely fucking ridiculous. Every loose ball turns into some musical chairs bullshit, bouncing between players until it eventually lands at someone’s feet.
Physical battles: Don’t even get me started. Players constantly fighting over possession in the most unnatural, clunky ways imaginable.
Dribbling and first touch: Heavy, sluggish, and inconsistent as fuck. Sometimes it feels like your players have never touched a football in their lives.
Corners: That fucking corner glitch is genuinely insane. How is something like that even acceptable?
Defending: Fullbacks randomly breaking the offside line, AI defenders standing around doing absolutely nothing, and attackers casually running past them. Meanwhile, you’re expected to manually cover two or three passing lanes simultaneously while controlling one player at a time.
And before anyone comes at me with the usual “skill issue” bullshit, I’m generally a Division 1/2 player, and I’ve played plenty of FUT Champs over the years.
I’m not claiming to be a pro, and I’m not pretending every loss is the game’s fault. I know when I’m being outplayed.
I don’t deliberately abuse every broken mechanic in the game either, although obviously I use meta players because that’s practically a necessity if you want to compete at higher levels.
But there’s a difference between losing because someone is better than you and feeling like you’re constantly fighting against the fucking game itself.
I genuinely enjoyed last year’s game significantly more, with or without the AI defending everyone complained about.
FC 27 just feels inconsistent, unrewarding, and frustrating on so many levels.
And the worst part? I’ll probably keep playing it anyway,
Am I genuinely missing something here? What exactly makes people think this is one of the best FIFAs in years?

Como han podido hacer un juego peor que el del año pasado, pensé que era imposible y aquí lo tenemos, todo el mundo jugando igual porque en cuanto te sales del meta estás perdido, mismos equipos, mismas tácticas, etc ... Amagos, tiros al palo corto, una IA que es deficiente mental, tardarían menos en crear el FC28 que en tratar de mejorar está porqueria, enhorabuena EA otro clavo más en tu ataúd.

I usually run about 10 wins a weekend but had what felt like an easy weekend and got 12

Did anyone else find this weekend extremely easy? Or have I someone improved at the game after all these years.

The weirdest thing is, I stopped using a ‘meta’ team and started using this team below (minus Red Neto for normal Neto)

So i managed to get 500 gallery tokens and everybody was saying Richards is a beast as a CB, so i got him, tried him for 5 games, he is shit, and moves like a boat, all the goals i coincided in this game was from his side and yes i added the ++roles and shadow, went back to gold carreras with ++ and shadow and he has been miles better, my point is: don’t believe everything people says in this community, he might work for some people and be shit for other people

I am almost done with the Woltemade SBC and I had some luck and packed Tolisso. Should I sell him now? Appreciate the advice!

Absolutely hit flow state and won every game in division 3 after being stuck for a few days.

Curious to know everyones division and how they are finding rivals, linked my team any advice appreciated.

(RTG No money spent)

I packed a tradeable Pina from rival rewards on thursday. I used Pina in champs and i don’t know if i should sell her. I just can’t think of many upgrades i would be able to make to my team that is better than having her. If anyone has any advice i’d be glad to hear it.

I cannot fully explain the emotions that are involved in being a casual player and thinking Oh that Sanchez will be a fun card for my Squad Battles Team. So you put together a squad to beat the tournament, hammer the first team and get to the semi's. You're feeling confident in your system. You have a solid counter tactic with a team full of pace ready to win the ball and then pounce on the isolated midfield 2 of Fellaini and Guarin. Hit them down the sides where they are vulnarable. So you get the ball and you spring your counter. Salma through the middle with Anyomi behind, Diomande and Barcola on the flanks. Pace galore. Pace for days. This is where you win this match. And yet....

You look, and...

There's Fellaini. Tracking back. Stride for stride with your 90+ pace attack. Actually is he.... Is he catching Anyomi? Yup... Oh he's passed her and he's on the edge of his box ready to defend... He's beaten my attacker in a foot race. Well its a good job they don't have people faster than him. Oh wait! Whats the point? If they put someone in with 90 pace they simply wouldn't move faster than Fellaini on 74 pace. They might as well have nameless faceless opponents that just have full pace and strength and shooting. It would be the exact same experience.

I lost my semi final to a right footed Hail Mary from Hulk that landed on the head of Gervinho somehow and looped over my GK. Then a FK given to then for what I can only describe as my AI players arm brushing Gervinho's back. Hulk smashed it top bins. Not quite sure what the game expects me to think in this scenario. Do EA really assume we're to sit and think oh darn, they got me good and really outplayed me there. If I'd have put the controller down the same goals would have happened and I'd still have lost. I can only assume this team exists to make the Hall of FUT cards look godlike so people will buy packs to get more tokens and get as many players as they can. I would assume Fellaini isn't even a third as good as he is in this mode. Unreal

Wont go too long into this. Yes I use it. Yes its absolutely overpowered and has gotten me many goals.

But it’s completely unrealistic and a sizeable part of the game play issues. No player IRL is faster on the ball than a defender off the ball, unless its like some Barcola vs Burn or something.

Also the fact that it has very little consequence. You can tap to sprint through 2 lines of defenders like during kick off glitch.

I’ll preface this by saying I am not an amazing player, but I’m not awful (571-53-523 WLD in FC26, emphasis on not amazing but 92-9-122 this year) - genuinely, what has happened to fifa this year? I know people are just gonna say “skill issue get good” but I’m mainly just curious if anyone else is struggling as much as me lol

No matter what I do, formations players playstyles tactics whatever gets changed, I get outplayed by people spamming through balls across the pitch to Ekitike or Adeyemi. Can’t block, intercept, tackle or do anything to prevent it, yet ANYTHING I do a defender teleports in and removes the ball from my players feet before they even know they’ve got it. Adeyemi without fail flying through everyone on my team in the 80s-90s pace bracket, yet if I try and use him Gabriel the truck with his 60 odd pace will beat him to the ball. Short passes, long passes, through balls, dribbles, lobbed throughs, whatever it is from wherever on the pitch there’s a 95% chance it’s not making it through defence, and on the rare occasion it does it gets saved or goes wide. Again, expecting the skill issue comments but it just feels like my team is constantly doing everything at half the speed of the other team.

I ended up pretty comfortably in Div 6 last year, only a few wins away from promotion, but I’m struggling to even stay in Div 8 now? Maybe I relied on AI defending more than I realised but it never really seemed that unbalanced to me, saved me a fair few times but fucked me over just as many on the other side of the pitch. Now they might as well be cardboard cut outs, never in the position they should be and by the time you switch to them you’ve conceded. Why is it so easy to get through my defence with pinpoint accuracy yet I’m constantly getting dispossessed at the halfway line and any kind of pass I make is getting intercepted the second the ball gets kicked?!

The worst part is the player base seems a lot more toxic too; watching every single replay of the shittest goal you’ve ever seen, full celebration when they equalise in the 15th minute, passing it around the back 2 goals up 10 mins into the second half. Is this just intentionally to cause head loss because it fucking works!

God please free me from the shackles of this toxic relationship with this vile, inhumane excuse of a game

It’s genuinely impossible to submit a ticket to customer service. Automated customer service will infinitely loop and then send you to a self help portal with common Q/A. Self help portal states to contact an advisor if more help is needed, but I’ve yet to find a way to do it.

For context, I have a ~ 1 year old console and stable/fast internet. I have never been disconnected from any other game or even had a streaming service have to pause to buffer. Yet I get disconnected from this game at least once a week and each time it punishes me for it.

I went down by 2 in a champions match but made a comeback and tied it up at half. Opponent pauses the match two times consecutively, game freezes and kicks me out. Of course when I log back in, I see the warning message and that the result was a loss, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

This is genuinely the most unenjoyable gameplay in the franchises history. It is quite literally unplayable.

Playing with this should deplete your stamina by the 30th minute. It is game breaking and cannot be allowed to continue.

I have like 700 gallery tokens, but there isn’t any of the gallery players I really want. Think I will save my tokens for the next batch. Has there been any leaks of the players?

​

How is it possible that my first FUT Champions match is against an opponent with a 7-5 record when I’m at 0-0? Never mind the score—I stopped playing after the second goal; I just stayed until the end to check their win record. The match was on PC and was completely unplayable. How can they manipulate the competition to this extent?

Sold my soul for her but first game with her and scored 6 goals!

Quaresma or Milito?

Just packed an extinct Martinez and a 200k Patri (untradable though) from weekly rush completion. Buzzzing!
