I’ve been playing FIFA since FIFA 09, this is by far one of the worst versions if not the worst. First of all, its like you and the AI opponent are playing two completely different games, as the AI can tackle and retrieve the ball from you within seconds, whereas you have to kill yourself only for the ball to magically bounce and go back to the opponent. It is so absurd that even the AI opponent attackers can defend and retrieve the ball better than my defenders. Secondly, after I mastered the game and overcame the unfair advantage of opponents and completing multiple seasons with a low division team in career mode, suddenly, my saved game was lost and I returned to the beginning of the prior season and the time and effort of the past week was all gone.
Honestly, FIFA was the only game I played for many years but now that things became this bad I wont be playing it again at all.
