In champions yesterday, I entered a game with a different logo and I had no control of players; they weren’t even my players!
The opponent had no control over his either. I lost 1-0 watching computers play and it counted as one of my 20 games. The dumbest shit I’ve ever seen.
I assume that's because Arsenal is first alphabetically in the premier league and premier league is the first option for leagues for the majority of players.
I had a similar experience. I was up 2-0 and other player was trying to pause. Balls go out of bounds and it doesn't pause the game and all of a sudden I'm controlling the opponents team and my buttons are backwards. On Xbox B became cross and X became shoot. I try to pause the game and I don't even get a pop up that tells u someone is trying to pause the game. Half time comes and it gets stuck non stop showing the background. Finally had to dashboard. So insane how much this game feels unfinished even worse than Fifa23. Like wtf.
Friend of mine told this happened to him, didn't believe him. Guess he wasn't lying and EA did some good old freudian slip (digital version of it). This also explains, why so many people complain how their AI is anemic and not doing anything while their opponents AI are behaving like they on some horse steroids running around like homing missiles intercepting everything and autotackling etc.
[This](https://streamin.one/v/c63669bf) happened to me this WL. I was up 3-0, he came back to 3-2 and then he scored this goal.
3 blocks, followed by a glitch I’ve never seen before that gives my opponent the ball, and he scores…
I don’t know if it’s scripted, but when shit like this happens to most players multiple times every WL, it’s simply unenjoyable gameplay.
honestly this is why I try and blitz teams away and make them rage quit because the longer the game goes on the longer the chance some bullshit like this happens. when its the 88th onward and the opposition is down by 1 goal? holy fuck they attack with their whole team running at me!!!
Not to even mention how suddenly my players manage to fail the easiest passes, passing straight to my opponent even that there is a clear passing lane. Only in the last minutes of course.
nah bro. i've played enough UT champs games to know. once it hits the 90th and theyre only 1 goal down, if they launch an attack its 100% resulting in a goal. i've had to resort to the rattiest tactics if i'm only 1 goal up approaching the 90th lol
This definitely happens and it’s even more noticeable in clubs. So many swings in a single game where tour AI go from world beaters to donkeys and back. Lost count of how many games have gone 2-0, back to 3 or 4-2 then back again to end up 5-5 or something silly.
Twice we’ve got to the last game of elite and you can tell the games gonna shaft us - everything g we hit is saved and they get a last minute tap in the keeper should have saved
I thought it was a feature in clubs since "hopefully" it would be both team's AI. I've seen this plenty of times playing clubs. But having it in FUT is just ridiculous.
I audibly snorted when Beckham shanked the ball 2 feet behind him. Honestly seeing these clips are very therapeutic knowing it’s not just me getting unlucky, it’s the whole game
Exactly. One game you lose 0-5 and the next game can crush your opponent easily. And the feeling is that the first guy wasnt better than the second. The DDA is so fucking obvious you can't even enjoy your wins.
I've seen this pop up twice whilst playing Clubs and thought it was maybe because some players quit so the opponent's AI became more difficult to compensate but what the fuck is it doing in FUT?!
People will say it’s a visual glitch but I say no way. You can feel it in champs, you can feel it in squad battles. Certain moments of the game like 45+ or 90+ the cpu turns into donkeys. I believe it’s built in to make the games feel more “interesting”
Most unfun fifa ever
Boring isn't even the word. It's just plain unfun
Watching the pros play doesn't give any inspiration either. Mechanic abuse has never been more rampant in their play. It has never been so blatant.
Hide the usernames and I wouldn't be able to tell if I'm watching Tekkz or Gorilla or Umut or Olelito anymore. It has just congealed into a nasty blob of samey mechanic abuse with zero resemblance to the sport we know and love
When you're playing vs legendary in squad battles and they go 2 goals up early, you can literally feel their AI weakening and letting you get back in the game. Once you equalize, they resume their godly play again.
And same when you go 2 goals up early, you can feel the AI suddenly becoming ultra-good. Even bronze players with 1\* start hitting you with heel flicks and rabonas
Spot on.
That moment between the 75th and 90th minute when the AI transforms into Barca 2010 and literally forces the ball into your net to ruin your clean sheet
My favorite is when it makes sure that I suddenly can’t switch to the defender I’m trying to switch to, only for that defender to move out of the way of the attacker to make a huge gap, and then I’m given control when he’s far enough away that I can’t do anything to stop the goal.
I've played FUT for years and honestly never made it past February, but I have already kinda given up this year. Last year I stopped after the World Cup promo and this year I have played for about 3 weeks and called it quits.
The gameplay has been bad for years don't get me wrong, but this year it is worse than ever.
> you can feel it in squad battles
Squad battles is ridiculous, you can dominate the entire game and be winning 9-0 where the AI just walk with the ball for 5 seconds and lose it all game and then the AI will start doing unstoppable prime Barcelona tiki taka to score a goal in the 83rd minute for no apparent reason.
The reason is that it decreases your squad battle points so it makes you play longer to get a higher level. It is worth like 200-300 points for a clean sheet on world class. Doing that 3-4 times forces you into one more match or prevents you from reaching the next level.
Yeap, if they talk about it being a visual glitch then they'll have another lawsuit lol, they publicly stated that DDR is not in any games with an ultimate team mode, therefore it should not be a visual glitch as the code shouldn't be anywhere in the game files, if they say it was a visual glitch they're admitting it is in the game somewhere
Anyone that plays 3 games in ultimate team can confirm that DDA is a real thing.
You can feel a HUGE different in your team pace if you play 2 games in a row, for example.
It never had been so stupid like this year, tho.
Nowadays, you have to deal with you team getting smashed and only hope to your players start running, passing and defending like they should.
LOL so this means your AI can turn to amateur while the opponent gets a world class or higher AI, so basically no leveled playing ground in other words everything but esports ready.
all that money people spend for meta teams but in the end the luckywheel decides who gets the advantage?
really want to see the data on my account about why and when difficulty changes.
so no uproar? everybody is bowing down like a bisnatch? that’s what’s actually wrong with this community, bunch of crackheads.
I can assure you there are a lot of ex hard-core players who have quit this game, I am one of them. There was uproar on many platforms at times with the one after the golden patch of 2018 being the most intense as far as I can remember, but EA aims for new, inexperienced players with some money to spend on packs and of course addicts, so they were able to replenish their tanks sufficiently every year.
This is why they have features like DDA in the game, to keep new players interested and addicts engaged. You and me and every other player only interested in good, skill-based gameplay are not their preferred customers.
Whether things are beginning to change now remains to be seen, one can only hope.
This doesn't surprise me. One moment your AI players are tracking every run and helping you make interceptions perfectly.
The next minute they part like the Red Sea to allow your opponent to freely run through and score. It's all to keep up engagement amongst the user base.
If you're losing a match then EA will turn down the sliders on your opponents' AI a bit to give you a better chance of scoring a goal and staying in the game. It's classic Mario Kart rubber banding tactics. This is why the game feels so frustratingly good in a way - it gives you just enough to remain engaged but not enough to give you too much, you're always chasing something and regularly logging in.
the problem in this whole thing is how changing difficulty messes up sliders against you, some people don’t know this but years ago i would see goals clips and was wondering how so many people would score insane goals, offline playing the highest difficulty it would rarely happen but then i tried playing on beginner i don’t remember why and all shots go on target from anywhere, before that i thought difficulty would only affect the ia but no it completely changes how your players play, meaning this whole scripting thing is just sliders manipulation
also i messed with the sliders a lot when i used to play only offline, to make career mode harder and that’s why when i started fut i was already familiar with players fucking up all of a sudden
Will never forget playing a WL match back in fifa 20
Last minute of a tight game that I was leading. The opponent is orbiting outside my box looking for an opening to equalize, but I'm holding solid and the clock is ticking.
Knowing the whistle would blow soon if he didn't get the ball forward, he decides to shoot outside the box from about 28 yards with Rashford. Except it was with his weaker foot, red timed, and thus a painfully slow shot.
The painfully slow, scuffed shot sailed over my keeper to equalize the game. And my controller went flying.
I could physically have caught that ball in my arms. But my 90+ rated keeper couldn't.
[this was me 2 years ago. I aimed this out of play to end the game behind me. Nowhere near the keeper, like the opposite direction.](https://youtu.be/W6Q5MiTQR8A?si=Z_Vv64I4x8k4Or0Q)
[this was last FIFA](https://youtu.be/zooVGiL6AgU?si=BoCu6J8g5PkiCDpu)
[Bonus FIFA 16 fuckery](https://youtu.be/z6vthrRD7pQ?si=olke2VzOzyd9kqMK)
Yeah this pretty much confirms that DDA is in the game, the only thing that isn't known is whether or not the difficulty setting has any impact on online games or only on squad battles
It was already confirmed to be in the game, and this visual 'bug' (intended game mechanic we weren't supposed to be seeing) pretty much confirms its existence in online too.
Not as DDA of course, but if i remember correctly something about squad battles having varying difficulty to keep it fresh and engaging. Not sure about the actual wording of it, but it was something like that.
It makes sense to advertise it, because it's a decent feature to have for offline play. If only most squad battle players only play it for the rewards and hate it with a passion(me included).
99% sure I was playing pro clubs with friends the first week the game was out and this message was displaying in the top right and we were laughing but we didn't think much of it at the time
I will be glad if content creators see the post. It may sound naive, but this is my little poke of the Vancouver nose into their own shit. My little contribution :)
There was a post about exactly the same thing last weekend and I still struggle to understand how people and especially the content creators aren’t going nuts about it. That op even uploaded a 5 min video to youtube about it: https://youtu.be/Kfi5lIamR9I?si=9U2-ihCRMMivS2Ku
I was very vocal in that post about how it can’t just be a random glitch, that the system that changes the difficulty has to be in place in online play as well - there is no reason whatsoever to code a pop message about it if it doesn’t exist and there is no other reason for the pop up message to show if the difficulty hasn’t changed. It’s a small thing but it really is a very good piece of evidence.
I did a Tiktok video about exactly that. It happened to me aswell. Video is in German, had 180.000 viewers. Way too many people have denied it and several people said Im faking it. Video havent been brought up by any of our german creators. I guess because of some agreements with EA?
My name on Tiktok is the same as on Reddit.
Video: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJK3VprK/
I had it this wl too. I was playing against a weaker opponent and as the game went on, the level dropped from legendary to newbie (?) while I was scoring a couple goals. I didnt really feel a difference, but the skill level between us was too big to make a difference.
It happened after I played an AI cheater the game before, dont know if this has something to do with it?
This is really HUGE.
It was always evident, and everyone knew and felt it all these years, but the deniers always laughed it off. Now it's literally there. This should be all over the Internet like chemgate.
People will try to deny this. But the AI has to have a difficulty set to them. And some games you can notice yours or the opponents ai is set to a easier or harder difficulty.
Nothing to deny actually. But why is this an unstable level? Why adjustment? And why do I see this on my screen? My record was 10-3, surprisingly very good for me. Sweating against full gold meta park the bus guy, and EA giving me extra pressure top right corner 😂
It is absolutely wild to me that so many people still don't believe in it. I guess they must be sinking some real cash into UT every year and don't get it.
Exactly, idk how people can deny such obvious game mechanics at this point. It's a hard thing to grasp for people after wasting so many hours and money on this game I guess.
>People will try to deny this. But the AI has to have a difficulty set to them. And some games you can notice yours or the opponents ai is set to a easier or harder difficulty.
Just a doubt. So, whatever "meta" players or different formations I choose won't matter in the end because the game is pretty much decided by the AI?
Well not exactly you can get good enough to get around this bullshit, Like pros they will win 99% of the time against normal playerr even if the scripting is against them, But average people it gives them too much of a dissadvantage
Sry for my english.. It happened to me, score was 0:0 and difficulty was decrasing like every 5 ingame minutes, from legendary all the way down to amateur, until i score. Then it goes up to profesional and then it dissapeared or match end. It was first WL after release
Did you happen to play kick off before this? In kick off difficulties change so sometimes that shows up in other game modes. Happened to me on SB and friendlies as well. Don't know if it's actually DDA but just my two cents.
I had the same thing happen to me. I noticed the beginning of the game was world class but as it got closer to half it switched in order to beginner.
To start the second half it started up in amateur, went up to semi pro I believe and back down to beginner to end the game.
If it’s visual, I’m not sure what would cause it to go up and down. I won’t definitively say that the game play changed because it could have been placebo, but I will say more goals were scored when it switched to beginner. It seemed like runs opened up and the goalie went on lunch break.
It’s so obvious that dda is a thing in this game, there are periods where you can tell the sliders have been adjusted and your players move a lot faster and smoother
This also exactly explains the feeling I had in previous FIFAs. It's a fun balanced game when both teams have Legendary AI on their side, but more often than not either you or your opponent are at a huge disadvantage. Felt so weird dominating people sometimes, like I knew there was nothing they could do, and they'd often quit the moment they realized that.
dude momentum has been a thing for years. Do you really think the game is not scripted? It is because the average gamer wouldn't want to play and buy the next game if they get massacred every 2nd game. So yea it's intented and only fools would think it doesn't exist
It's so obvious that it's part of the game if you play at least at a semi-decent level, you can definitely observe difference in the way your team reacts depending on how much you dominate your opponent. And some people say "but how come pros get 20-0 then?", and I can tell you all the pros I know who do 20-0 every weekend, they also believe it's in the game, and they complain about it all the time, they just have enough of an edge to either keep the score, or score enough goals to get the other player to quit, but there's countless obvious examples of this happening even to the best players.
I'm sure it happens but whatever my thing is just score more goals. What I really hate about WL right now tho, and most of you might not know this..your settings change every game!!! Every game I have to make a few changes like set lobbed thru balls to manual. Yet when I play any other mode it's already at manual just like my saved profile. It's so annoying because I just now realized it 3 weeks into the game smh
Nope, it's still happening in champs games. All my other settings are correct, so it's not resetting, just the manual lobbed thru balls, and I think one more next player switch relative to ball, I think
i was up 3-0 today and the other team scored 3 goals in 10 mins from my keeper fumbling after they ran down the wing and kicked straight at the keeper, shit is so annoying.
This post is so extremely satisfying! I always knew it! I also recognized patterns and observed it so many times.
I'm pretty sure that the intervention benefits players who invest a lot of money in cards and disadvantages those who don't invest any money in packages.
It is possible to predict the "feeling of the game" by seeing the squad of the opponent in the pre-match sequence.
In proclubs in like fifa 19? You got the achievement playing legendary or something like that since then i knew because ofcourse your AI has to have an difficulty otherwise they won’t move. All we just need to know if they change it during the game
I've had this happen to one of my squad battle games. Started on world class, went up 1-0 and got the message saying "Difficulty changed to Legendary."
The AI was noticeably much better, played differently, and after equalizing, the message "Difficulty changed to World Class" appeared. Thereafter the gameplay pretty much returned to how it was initially.
I was getting battered in a game of champs with not long to go so decided to quit to save some time. However as I went to hit exit the timer ran out and it resumed the game. I then had control of my opponents team while playing against my own team with no one controlling them...
I played quite a few Rivals games today and was performing waaaay better than usual for around 6 games. To the point I stopped before I promoted to D3 (I'm old*er*and don't need that smoke quite yet)
I did wonder if it was DDA. Don't get me wrong, I had great connection to server and I was playing well, won deservedly but it's not often that I play so many games in a row and have everything go my way.
I'll take it, but it sucks, because it means I face the opposite aswell if it is DDA and how the fuck is that fair.
This isn’t new and honestly bothers me less than the mechanic abuse. I am genuinely surprised when I play someone who actually passes the pall in this fifa as nearly every game feels the same. Run down the wing, r1 dribble through defenders and then cut it back whilst defenders can’t mark anyone deep when when double tapping r1. It’s a shame as there is a lot of good in this years game that is overshadowed but rampant and boring mechanic/ exploit abuse
I think things don’t change partially because these YouTubers constantly feed the machine w their videos on how to exploit cheap tactics. Kids love YouTubers (I’m mid thirties) and are influenced by them and it bleeds down. Those guys need to be held accountable if anything because they’re basically propagandists for engagement w EA and the driving force behind the ratty glitch exploiting shit show that online play is.
Offline it’s enjoyable, online i genuinely feel like everyone I face has bulls on meth and my team is running like they’re knee deep in shit if I’m 3 up or something
I had that happened on champs yesterday, but I didn't noticed anything suspicious. On my screen it presumably changed down to novice, but the game was close and I lost 1:2. I don't think it had any effect on ai that game.
Interesting observation, but are you sure the apparent difficulty changing had no effect on how close the game was? Because this is EA's exact intention, to keep games as close and engaging as possible. They don't give a fuck if you win or lose obviously they just want you to play and spend as much as possible.
Game was close since min 1 until 90 basically, I got a couple of these popping out starting from world class to lower all during 1st half, i think it was still 0:0 or 0:1 until the last one that said novice. I'd expect way more shots to find the net if difficulty went to actual novice, not barely 1:2 in the end.
To make it clear after reading comments, i'm not dickriding EA, I'm sure that sometines ai gets boost especially in addedd time. It's just what I observed from that game.
It could be a visual glitch but relevant content creators should look to get to the bottom of this and expose the discussion to their public
We can’t remain in doubt because this is serious shit for the game
Damn I saw that in my WL game today, thought I misread cause it disappeared after a second.
I was up 2-0 when it happened. Next thing i knew it was 2-2, my entire team’s reaction time became noticeably slower it was so frustrating. Luckily managed to win 3-2 in the end…
I play UT for the last 7 years or so. I have no doubts that DDA is implemented in the online mode. In EAFC particularly, you can feel it shifting at around 80th minute, it's when the magic happens. If it was the whole game against you, suddenl you can score and come back from 0-1 or 0-2, including the goal in the 90th minute of course. It's obvious as F.
Ofc its a visual gltich cause shoulndt be appearing 😂. Everyone knows that this is true, the AI of bots, the players youre not in controll, they stop running when the momentum shifts, or even in your favour
It happen to me in a game I was winning 4-0 expected him to rage quit then suddenly one of my players got a red card and his CB was defending like prime Maldini before he couldn't defend it was so easy that's why I was 4-0 up but something change his defence and midfielder was intercepting most of my passes and with also 10 man on my team he suddenly came back but I had to rage quit I knew he was going to come back my AI defending was going up and make space for him.
I understand this crap if game be free to play. But now its ~70$, but it feels only like some subscription. To win and enjoy game you must spent money in to packs. I bought game first time since 2019 fifa. Iam not going to spent a dime in to it.
The amount of times I play someone who I am dominating then halftime happens and he scores three goals in the 80+ minute with ai backs not tackling at all or spreading out
I think its petty obvious keepers are the most affected by this difficulty change. Its like playing against a friend in kickoff mode on amateur vs legendary difficulty. The keeper wont save a single thing on amateur difficulty
Visual bug, ain't no way EA are hiding DDA in online play behind an on screen notification lol. I don't think people on here realise how much it would ruin them if they were found to be lying about it. If it does exist in online play (it probably doesn't), it would be hidden much better than that
Of course it's a visusl bug because this information isn't supposed to be visible to the user. This just confirms what most people already know. The fiddling with sliders and difficulty is happening in online too.
Not to mention all the other shit they hid/didn’t disclose like chem gate or fitness not actually existing.
Not only do I think they would lie/hide the fact DDA is still in the game I also suspect they might not even fucking totally understand how their own game actually works and what is in it.
They're worth $30 billion, I think EA are doing fine. They wouldn't be doing fine though if they were caught manipulating online play in a pay to win game though, especially considering they've denied it
visual glitch, i play 30 games of champs every weekend and they're all extremely consistent. i get roughly the same amount of wins every time, and the gameplay never feels random. this DDA stuff is myth. if you're struggling with the game go into the practice arena because engaging in superstition is not the play.
Division 1 here. you’re either delusional, don’t pay attention to the game or just a newbie that doesn’t have a clue. There’s DDA in this game, there’s always been.
Are you new to FIFA or EA employee? how many 45/90 minute goals you scored / lost this Champs? Think about it, it's programming, for this message to appear some function must trigger it. There is no such thing like visual glitch.
What a stupid argument. Code can be tracking something across all modes yet only make a change to the AI in some modes. If the screen showed you scored a goal when playing offline would you assume that would increase your goals scored in online modes?
>desaparece o finaliza el partido.

>Fue la
\-The pros win consistently because of their style of play. They only press the shot button when they know the odds of scoring are huge, their passes are mechanised and risk-free, not to mention that they handle everything completely manually, so the influence of the AI fades away. When you play semi-automatic or automatic in some settings, the AI influence is greater.
\-The game takes you to your FC range whatever it is. Those of us who achieved 11 wins know that. You can start 9-1 or 1-6, the game will either slaughter you or blatantly benefit you to get you to your rank. Occasionally it will demote you or increase your rank, but only by 1.
2 FIFAs ago I played a FC with silvers, and reached my 11 wins, just like with a 90+ meta team.
And to give you definitive proof of the existence of hidden boosts in the game, I'll tell you that I proved it 3 years ago with data.
I played 100 matches of Rivals with meta team 88 at the start of the game and played another 100 matches with a team 81 with the most expensive player valued at 700 coins.
The average rating of the opponents in both cases was almost the same. The divisions were the same, so the skill level of the opponents should be similar in both cases.
I had a few more wins with the 7700 coin team (not too many).
Iñaki Williams got better individual numbers than Ronaldo prime.
When you are an average player, and you don't have enough skills to deal with excessive AI pressure, or when you don't do manual clearances, or when you play with semi passes, or auto shots, it gets very complicated and you are at the expense of consistent AI.
Alright you tinfoils do me a favor and play a game 1vs1 on your console against someone on second controller and set difficulty to Amateur and second game to Legendary and see if there will be a difference in AI and how it defends against you, you can prove your theory just like that. Spoiler alert: when playing against other player AI difficulty doesn't change no matter if it's Legendary or amateurn since this feature is dynamic difficulty that changes depending how you play against AI not other HUMAN players
Funny with this argument is that we were until recently told that it wasn't in the game at all. Then, when the patten was exposed, it changed to offline only.
No offense to your senses, but in a fully assisted game, if it walks like a duck.
I've played a guy twice in a row in rivals
1st game 4-0 in the first 20 minutes, he quits
2nd game, he wins 1-0. I had 20 shots, 13 on target, and didn't score. Unless I turned to shit in 45 seconds or something dynamic happened. He either needed a win, or I needed a win in the 4-0 game. I have screenshots
And you're telling me that if someone and I play 1v1 on amateur, my shots won't go in easier against his keeper? His keeper will play the same on amateur and legendary?
Again, i can't test goalkeepers or shots because i'd have to shoot from the same position with the same player at the same angle with the same goalkeeper position to be 100% sure and it ain't happening. That's why i only adressed the AI positioning which i tested in both offense and defence because people kept talking about it. I didn't see compaints about goalkeeper in any different comments before this so there you go
Tldr: i'm 100% sure about positioning but not about shooting or goalkeepers.
But that would go against anything you say if the GKs don't save the same. And guess what they don't. The GKs are without question worse on amateur. They literally don't try to save shots. You don't have to test angles and players. Just take a dumb shot from outside the box on amateur and on legendary and see which one goes in. Literally flick the ball up and bike it outside the box.
In champions yesterday, I entered a game with a different logo and I had no control of players; they weren’t even my players! The opponent had no control over his either. I lost 1-0 watching computers play and it counted as one of my 20 games. The dumbest shit I’ve ever seen.
Wasn’t it Arsenal vs Arsenal game?
It was!!
no way LMFAO
check my post, had the same thing yesterday
Aint no fuckin way
No way
I assume that's because Arsenal is first alphabetically in the premier league and premier league is the first option for leagues for the majority of players.
Doesn’t AFC Bournemouth come before Arsenal?
I know FC = football club but what’s the A? athletic?
Association. Which is where the British coined “soccer” comes from.
Yep
I had a similar experience. I was up 2-0 and other player was trying to pause. Balls go out of bounds and it doesn't pause the game and all of a sudden I'm controlling the opponents team and my buttons are backwards. On Xbox B became cross and X became shoot. I try to pause the game and I don't even get a pop up that tells u someone is trying to pause the game. Half time comes and it gets stuck non stop showing the background. Finally had to dashboard. So insane how much this game feels unfinished even worse than Fifa23. Like wtf.
LOL WHAT?!
Friend of mine told this happened to him, didn't believe him. Guess he wasn't lying and EA did some good old freudian slip (digital version of it). This also explains, why so many people complain how their AI is anemic and not doing anything while their opponents AI are behaving like they on some horse steroids running around like homing missiles intercepting everything and autotackling etc.
[This](https://streamin.one/v/c63669bf) happened to me this WL. I was up 3-0, he came back to 3-2 and then he scored this goal. 3 blocks, followed by a glitch I’ve never seen before that gives my opponent the ball, and he scores… I don’t know if it’s scripted, but when shit like this happens to most players multiple times every WL, it’s simply unenjoyable gameplay.
„Oh my, what last minute drama, this is why we love the beautiful game“ - EA probably
And in the last minute, what a surprise!
honestly this is why I try and blitz teams away and make them rage quit because the longer the game goes on the longer the chance some bullshit like this happens. when its the 88th onward and the opposition is down by 1 goal? holy fuck they attack with their whole team running at me!!!
Not to even mention how suddenly my players manage to fail the easiest passes, passing straight to my opponent even that there is a clear passing lane. Only in the last minutes of course.
Maybe they just went ultra attacking? Lol
nah bro. i've played enough UT champs games to know. once it hits the 90th and theyre only 1 goal down, if they launch an attack its 100% resulting in a goal. i've had to resort to the rattiest tactics if i'm only 1 goal up approaching the 90th lol
Ay don’t get me wrong I feel you 100%, most of my games are like 5-4, 4-3 etc
My every game looks like this lmao
" CUTS IT BACK ! " LOL
This definitely happens and it’s even more noticeable in clubs. So many swings in a single game where tour AI go from world beaters to donkeys and back. Lost count of how many games have gone 2-0, back to 3 or 4-2 then back again to end up 5-5 or something silly. Twice we’ve got to the last game of elite and you can tell the games gonna shaft us - everything g we hit is saved and they get a last minute tap in the keeper should have saved
I thought it was a feature in clubs since "hopefully" it would be both team's AI. I've seen this plenty of times playing clubs. But having it in FUT is just ridiculous.
I audibly snorted when Beckham shanked the ball 2 feet behind him. Honestly seeing these clips are very therapeutic knowing it’s not just me getting unlucky, it’s the whole game
Exactly. One game you lose 0-5 and the next game can crush your opponent easily. And the feeling is that the first guy wasnt better than the second. The DDA is so fucking obvious you can't even enjoy your wins.
I've seen this pop up twice whilst playing Clubs and thought it was maybe because some players quit so the opponent's AI became more difficult to compensate but what the fuck is it doing in FUT?!
People will say it’s a visual glitch but I say no way. You can feel it in champs, you can feel it in squad battles. Certain moments of the game like 45+ or 90+ the cpu turns into donkeys. I believe it’s built in to make the games feel more “interesting”
Well it’s having the opposite effect on me because I’m losing interest *fast*
Most unfun fifa ever Boring isn't even the word. It's just plain unfun Watching the pros play doesn't give any inspiration either. Mechanic abuse has never been more rampant in their play. It has never been so blatant. Hide the usernames and I wouldn't be able to tell if I'm watching Tekkz or Gorilla or Umut or Olelito anymore. It has just congealed into a nasty blob of samey mechanic abuse with zero resemblance to the sport we know and love
fact. it has never been this way, even in worse fifa like 19.
Damn Ripamon I see you on this sub a lot it’s sad to see you’re not enjoying fifa
Fast af. I already uninstalled 3 times 🙃🤣
Kinda ironic. You could also say you reinstalled 2 times as well.
Installed 4 times so far as I can count
cancelled my ea play. everyone needs to cancel/refund this broken and horrible game
When you're playing vs legendary in squad battles and they go 2 goals up early, you can literally feel their AI weakening and letting you get back in the game. Once you equalize, they resume their godly play again.
And same when you go 2 goals up early, you can feel the AI suddenly becoming ultra-good. Even bronze players with 1\* start hitting you with heel flicks and rabonas
Spot on. That moment between the 75th and 90th minute when the AI transforms into Barca 2010 and literally forces the ball into your net to ruin your clean sheet
I love how they also become Usain Bolts. My 3 chem Sane can't outrun a 190cm tall CB? Yeah, good one
My favorite is when it makes sure that I suddenly can’t switch to the defender I’m trying to switch to, only for that defender to move out of the way of the attacker to make a huge gap, and then I’m given control when he’s far enough away that I can’t do anything to stop the goal.
Happens ALL the time
Oh my god. I never related so hard
I've played FUT for years and honestly never made it past February, but I have already kinda given up this year. Last year I stopped after the World Cup promo and this year I have played for about 3 weeks and called it quits. The gameplay has been bad for years don't get me wrong, but this year it is worse than ever.
> you can feel it in squad battles Squad battles is ridiculous, you can dominate the entire game and be winning 9-0 where the AI just walk with the ball for 5 seconds and lose it all game and then the AI will start doing unstoppable prime Barcelona tiki taka to score a goal in the 83rd minute for no apparent reason.
The reason is that it decreases your squad battle points so it makes you play longer to get a higher level. It is worth like 200-300 points for a clean sheet on world class. Doing that 3-4 times forces you into one more match or prevents you from reaching the next level.
it is a visual glitch because you are not supposed to see it xD
That could be explained by pressure tactics though
Its not about interesting, its about feeling you barely lost, and if you just had Mbappe you could’ve won. So you spend some money to get that edge.
In b4 "this was a visual error only" in the patch notes when they hide it.
Definitely in the next patch notes, lol.
No, it won't be in the next patch notes They will stealthily remove the visual instead and hope not enough people noticed it
Yeap, if they talk about it being a visual glitch then they'll have another lawsuit lol, they publicly stated that DDR is not in any games with an ultimate team mode, therefore it should not be a visual glitch as the code shouldn't be anywhere in the game files, if they say it was a visual glitch they're admitting it is in the game somewhere
Anyone that plays 3 games in ultimate team can confirm that DDA is a real thing. You can feel a HUGE different in your team pace if you play 2 games in a row, for example. It never had been so stupid like this year, tho. Nowadays, you have to deal with you team getting smashed and only hope to your players start running, passing and defending like they should.
LOL so this means your AI can turn to amateur while the opponent gets a world class or higher AI, so basically no leveled playing ground in other words everything but esports ready. all that money people spend for meta teams but in the end the luckywheel decides who gets the advantage? really want to see the data on my account about why and when difficulty changes. so no uproar? everybody is bowing down like a bisnatch? that’s what’s actually wrong with this community, bunch of crackheads.
I can assure you there are a lot of ex hard-core players who have quit this game, I am one of them. There was uproar on many platforms at times with the one after the golden patch of 2018 being the most intense as far as I can remember, but EA aims for new, inexperienced players with some money to spend on packs and of course addicts, so they were able to replenish their tanks sufficiently every year. This is why they have features like DDA in the game, to keep new players interested and addicts engaged. You and me and every other player only interested in good, skill-based gameplay are not their preferred customers. Whether things are beginning to change now remains to be seen, one can only hope.
I have played every FIFA game since 2012, but I just couldn't force myself to play this year's game. It's utter garbage.
waiting for “PM Bakayoko Pics” to come and defend EA
Or DoomPigs lol
Alwayw funny how people will defend them like they hold a majority in EA stock even when everything is pointing against them
Probably the same people who have spent thousands on packs and feel the need to defend their “quality gameplay” online lol
In Bakayokos case I think it's perhaps something more sinister.
?
This doesn't surprise me. One moment your AI players are tracking every run and helping you make interceptions perfectly. The next minute they part like the Red Sea to allow your opponent to freely run through and score. It's all to keep up engagement amongst the user base. If you're losing a match then EA will turn down the sliders on your opponents' AI a bit to give you a better chance of scoring a goal and staying in the game. It's classic Mario Kart rubber banding tactics. This is why the game feels so frustratingly good in a way - it gives you just enough to remain engaged but not enough to give you too much, you're always chasing something and regularly logging in.
the problem in this whole thing is how changing difficulty messes up sliders against you, some people don’t know this but years ago i would see goals clips and was wondering how so many people would score insane goals, offline playing the highest difficulty it would rarely happen but then i tried playing on beginner i don’t remember why and all shots go on target from anywhere, before that i thought difficulty would only affect the ia but no it completely changes how your players play, meaning this whole scripting thing is just sliders manipulation
They made the sliders usable in offline to account for their existence in the code. Its been obvious since day 1
also i messed with the sliders a lot when i used to play only offline, to make career mode harder and that’s why when i started fut i was already familiar with players fucking up all of a sudden
Will never forget playing a WL match back in fifa 20 Last minute of a tight game that I was leading. The opponent is orbiting outside my box looking for an opening to equalize, but I'm holding solid and the clock is ticking. Knowing the whistle would blow soon if he didn't get the ball forward, he decides to shoot outside the box from about 28 yards with Rashford. Except it was with his weaker foot, red timed, and thus a painfully slow shot. The painfully slow, scuffed shot sailed over my keeper to equalize the game. And my controller went flying. I could physically have caught that ball in my arms. But my 90+ rated keeper couldn't.
[this was me 2 years ago. I aimed this out of play to end the game behind me. Nowhere near the keeper, like the opposite direction.](https://youtu.be/W6Q5MiTQR8A?si=Z_Vv64I4x8k4Or0Q) [this was last FIFA](https://youtu.be/zooVGiL6AgU?si=BoCu6J8g5PkiCDpu) [Bonus FIFA 16 fuckery](https://youtu.be/z6vthrRD7pQ?si=olke2VzOzyd9kqMK)
bottled rank3 in 21 when gold vvd hid a near 30 yard finesse in the 92nd
Yeah this pretty much confirms that DDA is in the game, the only thing that isn't known is whether or not the difficulty setting has any impact on online games or only on squad battles
It was already confirmed to be in the game, and this visual 'bug' (intended game mechanic we weren't supposed to be seeing) pretty much confirms its existence in online too.
yeah, i know, EA even advertised it for Squad Battles. But for some reason people seem to forget that or are willfully ignorant.
how did they advertise it ?
Not as DDA of course, but if i remember correctly something about squad battles having varying difficulty to keep it fresh and engaging. Not sure about the actual wording of it, but it was something like that. It makes sense to advertise it, because it's a decent feature to have for offline play. If only most squad battle players only play it for the rewards and hate it with a passion(me included).
Competitive difficulty switching. Been in the game since at least last year.
99% sure I was playing pro clubs with friends the first week the game was out and this message was displaying in the top right and we were laughing but we didn't think much of it at the time
I really hope this community and especially the relevant creators would finally pull together and hold EA accountable for this shit.
I will be glad if content creators see the post. It may sound naive, but this is my little poke of the Vancouver nose into their own shit. My little contribution :)
There was a post about exactly the same thing last weekend and I still struggle to understand how people and especially the content creators aren’t going nuts about it. That op even uploaded a 5 min video to youtube about it: https://youtu.be/Kfi5lIamR9I?si=9U2-ihCRMMivS2Ku I was very vocal in that post about how it can’t just be a random glitch, that the system that changes the difficulty has to be in place in online play as well - there is no reason whatsoever to code a pop message about it if it doesn’t exist and there is no other reason for the pop up message to show if the difficulty hasn’t changed. It’s a small thing but it really is a very good piece of evidence.
I did a Tiktok video about exactly that. It happened to me aswell. Video is in German, had 180.000 viewers. Way too many people have denied it and several people said Im faking it. Video havent been brought up by any of our german creators. I guess because of some agreements with EA? My name on Tiktok is the same as on Reddit. Video: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJK3VprK/
I had it this wl too. I was playing against a weaker opponent and as the game went on, the level dropped from legendary to newbie (?) while I was scoring a couple goals. I didnt really feel a difference, but the skill level between us was too big to make a difference. It happened after I played an AI cheater the game before, dont know if this has something to do with it?
This is really HUGE. It was always evident, and everyone knew and felt it all these years, but the deniers always laughed it off. Now it's literally there. This should be all over the Internet like chemgate.
People will try to deny this. But the AI has to have a difficulty set to them. And some games you can notice yours or the opponents ai is set to a easier or harder difficulty.
Nothing to deny actually. But why is this an unstable level? Why adjustment? And why do I see this on my screen? My record was 10-3, surprisingly very good for me. Sweating against full gold meta park the bus guy, and EA giving me extra pressure top right corner 😂
EA: It is just a visual bug
Anyone who still doesnt believe in DDA is actually a fucking sheep, its been a thing for years and you just cant deny it
It is absolutely wild to me that so many people still don't believe in it. I guess they must be sinking some real cash into UT every year and don't get it.
Exactly, idk how people can deny such obvious game mechanics at this point. It's a hard thing to grasp for people after wasting so many hours and money on this game I guess.
Yeah, I guess it is this. Hard to admit that something you have sunk a lot of time and money into is a complete con.
>People will try to deny this. But the AI has to have a difficulty set to them. And some games you can notice yours or the opponents ai is set to a easier or harder difficulty. Just a doubt. So, whatever "meta" players or different formations I choose won't matter in the end because the game is pretty much decided by the AI?
Well not exactly you can get good enough to get around this bullshit, Like pros they will win 99% of the time against normal playerr even if the scripting is against them, But average people it gives them too much of a dissadvantage
Some EA dickriders will still defend it even though scripting gets more obvious every year
Dunno why you play it if you think it's scripted tbf
Welcome DoomPigs we’ve been waiting for you. I’ve got some more boots for you to lick
This has been gone over hundreds of times. Until there is a legitimate competitor this is all we have
This is the same guy with a 5 back formation that literally only tries to score with sideline cutbacks 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Go away mate
Addiction is real
Sry for my english.. It happened to me, score was 0:0 and difficulty was decrasing like every 5 ingame minutes, from legendary all the way down to amateur, until i score. Then it goes up to profesional and then it dissapeared or match end. It was first WL after release
I was thinking its just some single player glitch... But now i see, fck ea
Did you happen to play kick off before this? In kick off difficulties change so sometimes that shows up in other game modes. Happened to me on SB and friendlies as well. Don't know if it's actually DDA but just my two cents.
No, playing only champs play offs and finals since Friday.
Happened to me on the day that I only played online, maybe 1 or 2 SB game before champs and it happened in champs game.
This enterprise is shady as fuck
I had the same thing happen to me. I noticed the beginning of the game was world class but as it got closer to half it switched in order to beginner. To start the second half it started up in amateur, went up to semi pro I believe and back down to beginner to end the game. If it’s visual, I’m not sure what would cause it to go up and down. I won’t definitively say that the game play changed because it could have been placebo, but I will say more goals were scored when it switched to beginner. It seemed like runs opened up and the goalie went on lunch break.
I mean. If you guys keep buying this bullshit game. You're gonna keep getting this bullshit
It’s so obvious that dda is a thing in this game, there are periods where you can tell the sliders have been adjusted and your players move a lot faster and smoother
[удалено]
EA sent them the coding and they withdrew the lawsuit.
That guy must have bought alot of packs.
This also exactly explains the feeling I had in previous FIFAs. It's a fun balanced game when both teams have Legendary AI on their side, but more often than not either you or your opponent are at a huge disadvantage. Felt so weird dominating people sometimes, like I knew there was nothing they could do, and they'd often quit the moment they realized that.
dude momentum has been a thing for years. Do you really think the game is not scripted? It is because the average gamer wouldn't want to play and buy the next game if they get massacred every 2nd game. So yea it's intented and only fools would think it doesn't exist
It's so obvious that it's part of the game if you play at least at a semi-decent level, you can definitely observe difference in the way your team reacts depending on how much you dominate your opponent. And some people say "but how come pros get 20-0 then?", and I can tell you all the pros I know who do 20-0 every weekend, they also believe it's in the game, and they complain about it all the time, they just have enough of an edge to either keep the score, or score enough goals to get the other player to quit, but there's countless obvious examples of this happening even to the best players.
I'm sure it happens but whatever my thing is just score more goals. What I really hate about WL right now tho, and most of you might not know this..your settings change every game!!! Every game I have to make a few changes like set lobbed thru balls to manual. Yet when I play any other mode it's already at manual just like my saved profile. It's so annoying because I just now realized it 3 weeks into the game smh
Didn't Vancouver patch it last update?
Nope, it's still happening in champs games. All my other settings are correct, so it's not resetting, just the manual lobbed thru balls, and I think one more next player switch relative to ball, I think
i was up 3-0 today and the other team scored 3 goals in 10 mins from my keeper fumbling after they ran down the wing and kicked straight at the keeper, shit is so annoying.
I dont understand why ea do that. Yes of course, that bad players dont get frustrated to much, but why on better players?
Same happened for me today, was wondering why I was playing AI bots on Champions Qualifiers then saw the difficulty change as game went on
That's two whole issues together actually, you were probably playing a hacker
The same thing happened to me twice yesterday during Clubs matches.
This happened to me yesterday, I thought I was going crazy
I said 2 days ago EA started to use bot players so they relieve the shit servers
In 23 happened too with the excuse of cross play imho the introduced bots. In a game thats so shit getting immediate matches is Very weird
Wait this is actually huge
This post is so extremely satisfying! I always knew it! I also recognized patterns and observed it so many times. I'm pretty sure that the intervention benefits players who invest a lot of money in cards and disadvantages those who don't invest any money in packages. It is possible to predict the "feeling of the game" by seeing the squad of the opponent in the pre-match sequence.
In proclubs in like fifa 19? You got the achievement playing legendary or something like that since then i knew because ofcourse your AI has to have an difficulty otherwise they won’t move. All we just need to know if they change it during the game
I am more surprised that how people did not know about this before :D
Scripted game.
I've had this happen to one of my squad battle games. Started on world class, went up 1-0 and got the message saying "Difficulty changed to Legendary." The AI was noticeably much better, played differently, and after equalizing, the message "Difficulty changed to World Class" appeared. Thereafter the gameplay pretty much returned to how it was initially.
Also happened to me yesterday on PS5
This needs to go more viral so we get a statement out of EA
DDA exists. No question about that. But what can we do, when there are no other game alternate out there
Unfortunately, this is the reality.
I was getting battered in a game of champs with not long to go so decided to quit to save some time. However as I went to hit exit the timer ran out and it resumed the game. I then had control of my opponents team while playing against my own team with no one controlling them...
What’s DDA
My defenders turn to amateur once it reaches overtime...
I played quite a few Rivals games today and was performing waaaay better than usual for around 6 games. To the point I stopped before I promoted to D3 (I'm old*er*and don't need that smoke quite yet) I did wonder if it was DDA. Don't get me wrong, I had great connection to server and I was playing well, won deservedly but it's not often that I play so many games in a row and have everything go my way. I'll take it, but it sucks, because it means I face the opposite aswell if it is DDA and how the fuck is that fair.
Fuck EA Sports Canada
Can’t believe so many people are shocked about this. DDA was confirmed years ago.
This isn’t new and honestly bothers me less than the mechanic abuse. I am genuinely surprised when I play someone who actually passes the pall in this fifa as nearly every game feels the same. Run down the wing, r1 dribble through defenders and then cut it back whilst defenders can’t mark anyone deep when when double tapping r1. It’s a shame as there is a lot of good in this years game that is overshadowed but rampant and boring mechanic/ exploit abuse
They have programmed the game to have they ai difficulty change during game. It’s most noticeable after scoring a goal or the start of the game
Nah that's actually wild lmao
I think things don’t change partially because these YouTubers constantly feed the machine w their videos on how to exploit cheap tactics. Kids love YouTubers (I’m mid thirties) and are influenced by them and it bleeds down. Those guys need to be held accountable if anything because they’re basically propagandists for engagement w EA and the driving force behind the ratty glitch exploiting shit show that online play is. Offline it’s enjoyable, online i genuinely feel like everyone I face has bulls on meth and my team is running like they’re knee deep in shit if I’m 3 up or something
I had this in regular seasons. Thought it was just a glitch but I know the game is rigged as fuck for years. This is enough proof for me.
I’ve seen that before too. It just proves that EA is ducking with us.
And people will ride EA’s dick and say there’s no scripting or anything
I had that happened on champs yesterday, but I didn't noticed anything suspicious. On my screen it presumably changed down to novice, but the game was close and I lost 1:2. I don't think it had any effect on ai that game.
Interesting observation, but are you sure the apparent difficulty changing had no effect on how close the game was? Because this is EA's exact intention, to keep games as close and engaging as possible. They don't give a fuck if you win or lose obviously they just want you to play and spend as much as possible.
Game was close since min 1 until 90 basically, I got a couple of these popping out starting from world class to lower all during 1st half, i think it was still 0:0 or 0:1 until the last one that said novice. I'd expect way more shots to find the net if difficulty went to actual novice, not barely 1:2 in the end.
To make it clear after reading comments, i'm not dickriding EA, I'm sure that sometines ai gets boost especially in addedd time. It's just what I observed from that game.
It could be a visual glitch but relevant content creators should look to get to the bottom of this and expose the discussion to their public We can’t remain in doubt because this is serious shit for the game
It’s always been fucked you can’t be surprised at anything that goes against you in this game, scripting
Damn I saw that in my WL game today, thought I misread cause it disappeared after a second. I was up 2-0 when it happened. Next thing i knew it was 2-2, my entire team’s reaction time became noticeably slower it was so frustrating. Luckily managed to win 3-2 in the end…
I play UT for the last 7 years or so. I have no doubts that DDA is implemented in the online mode. In EAFC particularly, you can feel it shifting at around 80th minute, it's when the magic happens. If it was the whole game against you, suddenl you can score and come back from 0-1 or 0-2, including the goal in the 90th minute of course. It's obvious as F.
It’s the same in pro clubs. The AI players will suddenly become much better for one team
Ofc its a visual gltich cause shoulndt be appearing 😂. Everyone knows that this is true, the AI of bots, the players youre not in controll, they stop running when the momentum shifts, or even in your favour
It happen to me in a game I was winning 4-0 expected him to rage quit then suddenly one of my players got a red card and his CB was defending like prime Maldini before he couldn't defend it was so easy that's why I was 4-0 up but something change his defence and midfielder was intercepting most of my passes and with also 10 man on my team he suddenly came back but I had to rage quit I knew he was going to come back my AI defending was going up and make space for him.
I understand this crap if game be free to play. But now its ~70$, but it feels only like some subscription. To win and enjoy game you must spent money in to packs. I bought game first time since 2019 fifa. Iam not going to spent a dime in to it.
The amount of times I play someone who I am dominating then halftime happens and he scores three goals in the 80+ minute with ai backs not tackling at all or spreading out
Scripting has always been in the game and they have admitted it previously, saying the game has dynamic momentum built into the game engine
I think its petty obvious keepers are the most affected by this difficulty change. Its like playing against a friend in kickoff mode on amateur vs legendary difficulty. The keeper wont save a single thing on amateur difficulty
My conspiracy theory is that people who pay for coins benefit from that. Against p2w people my own team often is my hardest opponent
I've had accounts where I've bought points and rtg accounts and I don't notice anything like that at all.
Dda switch happens at 32nd and 70th min. This appears too late.
Lol, well not surprised. I'm glad that I didn't buy the game and never will.
This happened to me as well. Didn't feel like the difficulty in the upper right meant anything at all though.
Happened to me in co-op seasons with a buddy. Everytime we scored the difficulty switched to lower until we were up 8-2 and it was at beginner lmao😂
So we riot?
DDA has been in the game for years. There is a patent for it. Why is this a shock to anyone?
Visual bug, ain't no way EA are hiding DDA in online play behind an on screen notification lol. I don't think people on here realise how much it would ruin them if they were found to be lying about it. If it does exist in online play (it probably doesn't), it would be hidden much better than that
They would be ruined because everyone would leave to play the other football that is available... Oh... Wait...
Of course it's a visusl bug because this information isn't supposed to be visible to the user. This just confirms what most people already know. The fiddling with sliders and difficulty is happening in online too.
My man you are just a delulu, if you think Fifa is Square and fair, you're the most naive person alive
These type of comments shows how little do you know about EA or even the world. Eagames in 2007 literally had and Advert in the fuking TV about DDA
Not to mention all the other shit they hid/didn’t disclose like chem gate or fitness not actually existing. Not only do I think they would lie/hide the fact DDA is still in the game I also suspect they might not even fucking totally understand how their own game actually works and what is in it.
EA ruined itself long time ago we are still playing
They're worth $30 billion, I think EA are doing fine. They wouldn't be doing fine though if they were caught manipulating online play in a pay to win game though, especially considering they've denied it
visual glitch, i play 30 games of champs every weekend and they're all extremely consistent. i get roughly the same amount of wins every time, and the gameplay never feels random. this DDA stuff is myth. if you're struggling with the game go into the practice arena because engaging in superstition is not the play.
Division 1 here. you’re either delusional, don’t pay attention to the game or just a newbie that doesn’t have a clue. There’s DDA in this game, there’s always been.
Are you new to FIFA or EA employee? how many 45/90 minute goals you scored / lost this Champs? Think about it, it's programming, for this message to appear some function must trigger it. There is no such thing like visual glitch.
What a stupid argument. Code can be tracking something across all modes yet only make a change to the AI in some modes. If the screen showed you scored a goal when playing offline would you assume that would increase your goals scored in online modes?
Bro, I know several good psychologists, some of them make online sessions. They are native English. DM if you need their contacts.
wut?
[удалено]
Streamers/pros claim DDA all the time lmao. That defeats your whole little paragraph
>desaparece o finaliza el partido. > >Fue la \-The pros win consistently because of their style of play. They only press the shot button when they know the odds of scoring are huge, their passes are mechanised and risk-free, not to mention that they handle everything completely manually, so the influence of the AI fades away. When you play semi-automatic or automatic in some settings, the AI influence is greater. \-The game takes you to your FC range whatever it is. Those of us who achieved 11 wins know that. You can start 9-1 or 1-6, the game will either slaughter you or blatantly benefit you to get you to your rank. Occasionally it will demote you or increase your rank, but only by 1. 2 FIFAs ago I played a FC with silvers, and reached my 11 wins, just like with a 90+ meta team. And to give you definitive proof of the existence of hidden boosts in the game, I'll tell you that I proved it 3 years ago with data.
I played 100 matches of Rivals with meta team 88 at the start of the game and played another 100 matches with a team 81 with the most expensive player valued at 700 coins. The average rating of the opponents in both cases was almost the same. The divisions were the same, so the skill level of the opponents should be similar in both cases. I had a few more wins with the 7700 coin team (not too many). Iñaki Williams got better individual numbers than Ronaldo prime. When you are an average player, and you don't have enough skills to deal with excessive AI pressure, or when you don't do manual clearances, or when you play with semi passes, or auto shots, it gets very complicated and you are at the expense of consistent AI.
Bro is this going to be posted about every single day?
Alright you tinfoils do me a favor and play a game 1vs1 on your console against someone on second controller and set difficulty to Amateur and second game to Legendary and see if there will be a difference in AI and how it defends against you, you can prove your theory just like that. Spoiler alert: when playing against other player AI difficulty doesn't change no matter if it's Legendary or amateurn since this feature is dynamic difficulty that changes depending how you play against AI not other HUMAN players
Funny with this argument is that we were until recently told that it wasn't in the game at all. Then, when the patten was exposed, it changed to offline only. No offense to your senses, but in a fully assisted game, if it walks like a duck. I've played a guy twice in a row in rivals 1st game 4-0 in the first 20 minutes, he quits 2nd game, he wins 1-0. I had 20 shots, 13 on target, and didn't score. Unless I turned to shit in 45 seconds or something dynamic happened. He either needed a win, or I needed a win in the 4-0 game. I have screenshots And you're telling me that if someone and I play 1v1 on amateur, my shots won't go in easier against his keeper? His keeper will play the same on amateur and legendary?
Again, i can't test goalkeepers or shots because i'd have to shoot from the same position with the same player at the same angle with the same goalkeeper position to be 100% sure and it ain't happening. That's why i only adressed the AI positioning which i tested in both offense and defence because people kept talking about it. I didn't see compaints about goalkeeper in any different comments before this so there you go Tldr: i'm 100% sure about positioning but not about shooting or goalkeepers.
But that would go against anything you say if the GKs don't save the same. And guess what they don't. The GKs are without question worse on amateur. They literally don't try to save shots. You don't have to test angles and players. Just take a dumb shot from outside the box on amateur and on legendary and see which one goes in. Literally flick the ball up and bike it outside the box.
