Spot the differences... WAKE UP EA!!!! ps:Update5
Before:
After:
Dear EA, I see NO CHANGE AT ALL!
Why are you assuming a nerf as a now 850/1000 shots in and before 900/1000 shots in.... We need you to change to like 300/1000 shots in.... Thats a real patch, not this joke.... common...we all saw that you don't even have to enter the area to score 10 goals in a game... longshots are not the rule, but the exception... Watch the fut champions event goals... They were boring!
EA, MAKE A REAL CHANGE!

Thought my goals were going to dry up 🤣
these long finesse shots are so broken.. it reminds me of Fifa 10-12.
it's not even a game of football now, it's a game of how can get in the best position to fire a timed finesse shot haha
Hope this gets patched ASAP, it's really stupid now
Yeah, instead you score 5 in 5...you will still score 5 in5. That´s what I see in the patch notes.
Patch five wouldn't be a problem as long as the patches actually improved the game.
When they introduce something where you have to time something to a power bar, it was obvious that if you hit it bang on it was always going to result in a goal because they have to justify that hitting it perfect makes a perfect shot.
It's like the old power bars on the Tiger Woods games, if you hit it bang on the line you hit a perfect straight drive.
I have a SMALL (very small) bit of sympathy for EA they do feel like they need to add things to justify their new game otherwise the world is on their back saying its the same game as last year.
But they have to get the basics right and just leave them alone and never touch them because the basics don't change.
Passing and shooting should be the same pretty much every year. We have a dynamic power bar, the longer you press the harder the shot/pass. We have a choice of lobbed, finesse or normal. We really didn't need much else.
Driven passes, driven shots, timed finesse, all of these were superfluous introductions and end up just getting spammed and making the game more and more unrealistic.
I'm on PC I guess I will find out tonight how successful the change has been.
I'll also need to practice the elastico now and have Mbappe do it all the time.
I hope this doesn't impact normal finesse shots, when you're in a good position with the correct body posture.
a lot of more of the on target attempts are going straight at the keeper though, in the first picture a large percentage are top corner
Beautifully written post, summarised perfectly
Probably the best i've seen on this forum
What's the point of this patch if they just made it more RNG? Once you get the rhythm down you could practically hit green timed finishes in your sleep.
Just look at fifa 17 which was all about PTB.
Games become an embarrassment
Lol, way to OP? Now?
So you prefer a game that allow you to score only > 20m goals instead of actually learn how to play better?
While it was not a first time finesse I've just scored a red bar finesse shot with Messi
Feel sorry for EA they are adding things into the game when there is mechanics that have been broken for years for example kick of goals and tackles magnetising to the attacking team every time.
I can accept EA creating a new in game mechanic and if it isnt working 100% then fixing it or removing it but they dont.
Timed shooting clearly isnt working so reduce it that timed shooting gives a slight % chance of goal or remove it instead they will just persist.
You basically have to press finesse outside the box and its a goal.
I see people streaming with stacked teams and failing to time the timed finesse shot 9 out of 10 times and the ball still goes in .
The changes EA need to make are so simple.
- Nerf AI blocking (Players that are AI controlled should not tackle nor block shots)
-
- Make 1 vs 1 finishing consistent.
This is whats frustrates me the most. You break down a PTB player and get a 1 vs 1 situation where your player with 95+ finishing will miss goal.
The same player will a few moments later hit a finesse shot with his weakfoot into the top corner outside the box.
Patches have so far changed nothing. This game is so rotten at the moment i have no words.
EA do not trust 2 human players to be able to make their own chances and drama. its a huuge flaw in the design of this game. Goal kicks , throw ins are adventures. The AI can move faster, pass better than any human OR do things that no human would EVER do.
EA choose which it is ,
The error of the shots must be increased A LOT and i wish timed finishing wouldn't ever come to fifa, really ruins it. And then there's the keepers, sometimes finesses are so slow in the air and still they can't manage to catch them while they have supersonic reflexes when you're 1 on 1, really hopes it all gets patched soon because i'm tired of seeing 95% of goals i concede being a finesse from too far out while i'm doing my best to actually get past my opponent's defence
Every fifa there is a go to shot. Last year it was low driven, guess what... they didn't change them then either.
Adapt to the mechanics or ❤️❤️❤️❤️ off.
