Legendary is too easy.

I started a Watford career mode three days ago when the game came out. I played every pre-season group game and won all three comfortably (3-0, 4-1 & 2-0) with my second team and reserves playing against teams like Galatasaray and Bordeaux. This already annoyed me so I then just simulated the rest. After playing the opening 5 games in the Premier League, I won all 5 and had the best defense in the league as usual. Speaking of defense, surely I can't be the only one who in every career mode he does, whether it's with Portsmouth or Real Betis, always has the best defense in the league? Anyways, after those 5 games, I was just sad that I paid 80$ for the most unrealistic and easiest FIFA ever. So I then purposely lost the next couple games by quite a lot of goals to make it somewhat realistic. Now I am 12 games in, 5th in the league and hating the game right now. Every game I play I am forced to play worse and make mistakes just so the other team has a chance. I desperately want EA to fix this and bring in another difficulty like ultimate, which is dumb that they had it in offline ultimate team but not in career mode. And yes, I can use sliders but that just makes it even more unrealistic with distorted and overpowered passing and shots. Anyone else?

Unlucky guys. See you next year?
It's even more frustrating when you see people online telling EA to reduce the difficulty level. Nope, the biggest problem of FIFA (every single year) is how easy legendary is.
The only way to make it realistic is to go with a top team
The funniest thing however, is that in the demo, world class was fine. I even lost a few games. Though I cannot be 100% sure it wasn't due to me having to adjust to the new gameplay, it seemed harder than in the final version of the game.
I really hope there will be an adjustment or a new difficulty. Otherwise this will be the first FIFA ever that I cannot fully enjoy.
On fifa 16 I had to really concentrate and play to a high level to win games on legendary. On 17 I don't seem to have to get out of first gear. I'm playing as Leeds and I'm just destroying every opponent with ease and its boring.
I really hope a patch is released for this soon. I guess I'll just have to stick to online until it is.
This needs a patch asap.
Played a bunch of offline drafts, just like last year, WC is tougher then Legend. Played 10 offline now.
Exactly right. 16 was way more of a challenge. 17 is as you say, unplayable in career mode if you want a challenge.
No patch I hope. It may be easy for you ping pong 4 minute half players. Us purists are ok thank you. Patches ruined the game last time.
What are you on about? Play 16 minute games, our complaint is the AI is too easy on legendary. It they make the AI harder, how does that effect you?
The majority of you create this with your playstyle. You don't try and mimic real football at all. I guarantee everytime you are wide you fake shot or Ronaldo chop inside. Your own playstyle has ruined the game for you, not the game.
Pure assumption on your part. All I care about is realism on the pitch. I want it to be challenging and realistic. The AI is rediculous in this iteration of fifa. I only every play offline career and won't touch the online stuff. Don't know what it takes to be a purist, I just want a realistic challenge vs the AI.
As it stands, it's far too easy vs the cpu.
If you think the cpu is anything close to mimicking real football, you don't know football.
Haha, sadly not a drinker.
Lol you don't know what you're talking about mate.
The reason the game is so easy is because I play FIFA like football is played in real life. I haven't used one skill move. All I score are goals that are easily worked through midfield and by finding my strikers with way too much space in the box. The AI doesn't press hard enough, track runners, or block passing lanes.
As for defending - well, it's a joke. The AI sucks so, so, so bad.
Adjusted the line height/width sliders? Do you even know what they do? Real football lol just another ping pong speed merchant lol.
Mate, played this game for years. Not a ping pong speed merchant, appreciate real football.
Leading the table without conceding a goal in ten games is not real football. It's too easy.
Fair enough, played fifa really for last 10 years, by far the easiest. Unplayable so.
I haven't read anything. Haven't played for a few days. Hopefully this is addressed in next patch.
Not crossing over to dark side yet:) waiting for patch. If it's not addressed. Will likely join you.
I've started to play on world class, but I've noticed was too hard, so I downgraded on professional. At first it seemed ok, then I started to lose points again, o lot of them, but I managed to win, sometimes 4-0 and sometimes I lost 0-3. It seems fair on professional, but a lot harder the Fifa 16 world class.
