if i see my opponent doing this during the first 15 min of the match, i simply use my 3 pauses while solve somethings on my phone and than i forfeit match
I said last week after trying the PC version that this patch would kill the game. They nerfed timed finesse, they even nerfed normal finesse and have blatantly buffed the AI. Watching the AI run, sprint, tackle and block every shot is something I’ve never seen in Fifa to these extremes.
Zero user input defending, block, 3 pass counters to concede goals. Please get help if you’re thinking about buying points for this disgrace of game. We had a glimmer of hope on 1.05, but since then it’s been lie after lie. Telling us they haven’t touched AI defending. Not only have they buffed it, but also made first touches and dribbling in the box worse.
I have lost all hope in that company.. Have you ever seen a big budget game releasing patches without beta test?
We are not talking about simple fix patch? A patch that bassicaly makes the game unplayable and ruins half the players. On top of it everyone that did FB Ibra has a big big edge...
Have you seen the youtubers? Ibra on the wing with mbappe crossing to ronaldo... Actually Mbappe crosses to both Ibra and Ronaldo...
I swear "he blocked the shot" is the most common thing I ever heard.. Try finessing in the box for a goal when he charges ur attacker... He go for throw in... Just be prepare to press GK charging play 1 depth and destroy your opponent nerves..
It’s embarrasing.
RIP to Prime Zanetti owners ( @deang07 ) with his 50 jumping he might as well be a bronze - he’s gonna get peppered.
I have Ronaldo and Ibra at CAM now. So difficult to stop

Fullbacks are a real problem now, zanetti is done.
You can still score timed finesse and don’t see the problem. Had a guy score 3 greens on me in one match. I’ve yet to concede a cross. I agree on AI defending but the AI can not defend the drag back so just spam that you will either get space for a shot or they give away penalties.
I realise it’s all about opinions but for me this is the best the game has been all year. I’ve played a lot more people actually trying to play football rather than just abuse the game mechanics
Only people liking the patch is finesse abusers who are keen to adapt. Theyre finally playing football and enjoying it. I dont abuse any mechanic, try to bring variety to my playstyle and I can tell you that this is the first ever patch that ruined my football. Trying to fix finesse they broke passing, ball control and other stuffs. But former finesse abusers cant tell as they were barely playing football.
Try again I’ve never had timed shooting on.
Well thats not my main point. Thing is the whole gameplay has been affected by this patch. And everyone acts like its ok.
I think it’s been very obvious with the last few patches that their notes only contain part of the updates. They know exactly how they want the game to play and all our moaning doesn’t matter. They don’t respect or appreciate long serving customers and are out to attract new players who want to play the game where the Al will do their hard work.

Disclaimer: I don't have 100 Maldinis for sale, I don't trade; I'm more of a "spend money on FPs kind of guy".
Anyway, after the new patch, I played around 15 games yesterday and nearly stopped playing altogether because of the new Crossing/El Tornado tactic followed by backpost headed goals by Ronaldo, Kane, Mandzukic and Co.
As a last resort, I researched tall LBs/RBs and came across 6' 1" 88 Maldini; I slapped a "Sentinel" Chem on him and, By God, he is a Giant-killer! He has stopped all the backpost crosses and totally negates the giant strikers with power headers.
Generally, players seem to have a preference to cross from one-side, so, I move Maldini in-game to RB, if required.
TLDR: Get 88 Maldini (LB) (v.cheap icon ca. 600k) and nuke the new OP Meta Crossing/El Tornado > headers!
Since they play drop back with 1 depth after 60th minute your players are tired and he can easily make a run for it with his lone striker and a lob pass... If I concede one goal first I have a shot at winning but if the guy scores 2:0 its GG.. He can pass around his 10 defenders
There it comes and it's not even the weekend! I've been warning for this the whole time; these white knights who couldn't cope with timed finesses and cried wolf because people utilized every tool in the shed, are in for a very sour awakening when they'll realize what a vapid, shallow, meaningless game they're in for.
There is no way this would have worked; you can't just abolish TF without addressing AI defending. TF was the COUNTER to passive handholding.
Countering one broken mechanic with another is just stupid . You're talking like they took out timed finishing -it's still in the game and you can still use it -so what's your point ?
I still score quite a lot with it - just now I know that it won't be spammed by every scrub I play with ,and that's great
If you call TM one of the tools in the shed isn't AI defending one of them as well?

Here's hope that you'll come out a wiser man out of this. You've endorsed this company by throwing 1000s of euros at them and at the same time trolling people from your high horse.
And now look who is trolling you. EA.
Haha I had good time while it lasted with the squad. Not enough to compensate the money I gave them but honestly I am not buying a pack again.
If I play next year I will use what Krasi advices at beginning of his videos
warned everyone last week about this as a pc player..... out of 30 games (must have been mental to play them all) 3 or 4 of them actually wanted to play, the rest was all PTB 1 depth with a hell of a lot more 5 at the back formations seen.
It was the most boring WL i've played.
as someone who far from spammed TF shots with them being OP opened up more space around the area.... now its just 9 players stood in the box blocking everything with a moron running around with his ST/CAM/CM
I am preoreding The Division 2 are you on xbox? I have some good dudes to play with it ?
I am really looking forward to do.. Preorder beta starts in a week. Then only 30 days till I can play something decent
I have an Xbox but I play The Division on Ps4 since most my friends are on it. I really hope it's great since Battlefield let me down, I need a good FPS that's not Cod.

You literally just answered your own question.
Instead of trying to defend the patch shouldn't you be agreeing that AI defending should be fixed also?

I don't defend anything - and I agree AI defending also should be fixed
seems like you didn't understand the context of my reply
too much complaining, too little trying to adapt and improve in here, with enough patience you can break every opponent
You make it sound like its some real game. AI defending is silly. You can work that pass all day long and they just have to counter once and you're back to square one.
Here is an idea, remember a few months ago when everyone was slating Fifa 19 and ‘ went back ‘ to 18, remember Fifa 18 didn’t have timed finishing? Play without it? I rarely use timed finishing I’m not ashamed to say I’ve not quite mastered it yet but this is because I don’t feel the need to use it. I average 20 wins every weekend league which isn’t perfect but it gives me enjoyment. Every week I get 2 player picks and a couple of packs to open. I use me discard players in SBC’s every week and hope for a walk out and POTW an Icon etc. How can you all say you no longer enjoy the game we have all been playing for 10+ years? Before all the Patches the timed finishing was just men against boys. It was too easy. They have re added a bit of realism back into the game, Messi doesn’t score with every shot he takes so why should double pressing a button on Fifa mean that Benteke should score with every finesse? You all need to remember the roots of Fifa. Fifa 04 you could score from the half way line. Fifa 12 you could long ball from the half way like at kickoff and score. Fifa 19 with the latest patch now means it’s the most realistic game. Don’t sell your team, adapt to the new(old) way of playing.
But if you are still going to throw your dummy out the pram thanks in adavance for the easy wins the weekend.
Rated E For Everyone.

I'm the opposite
Fifa 17 & 18 I had less than 100 combined & this year I'm already nearing 1,000. Definitely chose the worst version to come back to.

Yep... the minute I saw Ovvy video and posted it here some people had hopes but nope. EA showed us real good
I have an Xbox but I play The Division on Ps4 since most my friends are on it. I really hope it's great since Battlefield let me down, I need a good FPS that's not Cod.

I let the AI defend for me, didn’t touch the controller once and the other player couldn’t score! They were like a brick wall.
Not to moan, but it’s a little boring having the AI that strong. Is this the patch or have I missed a trick with this years FUT
i've always manual defended as much as i physically could do and will continue to do so so i'm not playing half a game.
no only to add to the AI defense being a joke, i'm 99% sure they have messed with passing and ball control aswell
Oh yeah it was you, I forgot. Which console are you on? And sorry bro, but you have a complain thread every 2 days, I didn’t take you seriously.
I don't defend anything - and I agree AI defending also should be fixed
seems like you didn't understand the context of my reply
I complain about the same thing. AI defending, that’s it. At the core of every complaint it’s that. I’m on ps4
