I am a good player. I go 16-4/14-6 in most WL. 8-2 in qualifiers. Division 1 and haven’t pushed for elite.
Pressure of any version makes the game frustrating to play. It’s not enjoyable. I don’t know what’s going on this year but it’s worse than ever before. Pressure breaks the attacking AI, no movement. It’s not a football game. EA should do everything in their power to fix this issue as soon as possible. I typically play until June but if I have to continue playing against pressure like this I will be done in January. It’s not an awful fifa but IMO when pressure tactics are turned on (especially constant pressure) it is the least fun to play ever.

I can be winning and have 70% possession but as soon as pressure is applied my players turn to 💩 and I lose.
You have to be happy with ranks like that surely m8, see the thing is with changing the game it might not improve your ranking but make it worse.
Well the reason why I lose the games I do is mostly because my opponent is down 2-0, they turn on pressure then it becomes a crap shoot for deflections and through balls. And sure it’s nice to finish well but if so much of the process is more frustrating than fun… what’s the point?
Yeah I have to admit m8 that sort of crap does happen.
I’ll quit when I’m winning if high pressure goes on.
I won’t. But if they equalise in the first half using it then I’m done. This type of player isn’t playing to win, they are playing to not lose.
It’s not so bad if the gameplay is responsive, and I can get my passes off before they get the ball. But if I’m constantly being dispossessed AFTER I have pressed the pass button, then I’m out.
First year in ages where people are not sticking their fullbacks on stay back, whats worse is if someone has pressure tactics on with overlapping fullbacks and you win the ball back in your half. Half the time better booting the ball out of play
At high pressure, you can't win with only counterattacks and sprints because the game is broken. Playing on counterattacks makes me not happy, it's boring, all the goals are scored without thought, just a sprint and why would someone collect cards and have a better team if they can't even dominate and push the opponent!
