This game is just Cheaters and Hackers
If you are considering buying this game for PC, you should be aware that there is a huge problem with cheaters in game, especially in the online modes (FUT, Pro Clubs).

For example :
- Using cheat sofware to add own goal and then disconnect opponent
- Squad Battles TOP 100 almost 80% hacking with a perfect score
- People using Legacy Defending online
- People using Always Perfect Timed Finesse Shoot online
- Draft unplayable because of disconnect glitches (only cheaters there)
- People watching your WL record before the game starts, so they can avoid game

Among lots of other hacks.

The problem exists since years, maybe 6 or 7. The PC section on the EA forum is basically people complaining about the situation and EA never said anything about it or helped the customers.

You can easily find cheats for FIFA in a google search and most of them are for free.

The game is so broken that the only "anti-cheat" measure that their developers implemented was a feature that if you ALT+TAB during a running game you get disconnected, because that's how you activate the cheat.
It took not even a day for all the cheats to come with a feature that allows you to ALT+TAB, so the result is that all legit players cannot ALT+TAB anymore, while everybody hacking can do. On top of that, the last edition of the game has a bug for some people that "lose focus" during the match (so, you get disconnected with a loss). This means that for months people were not able to finish a game and EA didn't brought a solution for that. The only way to play was to use the cheat itself.

I was always a FIFA player, since FIFA 11, but year after year I lost hope in the game. EA is a very shady company, with awful customer support and it seems the only thing they care about is to make promos, so people use real money on Fifa Points in the hope to get a better player. It's a real casino, manipulated by EA in so many ways and different levels.

It is not a fun game anymore. Their only focus is to increase revenue on top of people's addiction to build a better team.

So, if you are considering buying the game, be aware : The game is INFESTED with cheaters since ever. You can check every Fifa Edition forum on EA web page to get a real feeling of how big is the problem.

That's definitely better than any online mode, as long as the CM doesn't come broken again like last year. :D

this game,this franchise is a joke:

the gameplay is going into nooby direction more and more every year,fifa 20 was supposed to rectify some of the problems in terms of skill ended up introducing even more nooby styles in the game,its really disgraceful to see that the better player is the one that loose to much less skilled ones,not to mention all the problems of the gameplay and the broken mechanics and the dum design choices,and now with their fifa 21 notes you can see how honestly this game is going to be a card game more than ever with very little skill involved,this game is designed to lore in the average casual spending player to buy the game every year and spend some money on the game.

types of players that i think would buy next year game would be:

offline player (there are better choices)
online cheating players
online casual player
ultimate team players spending money ( the idiots)
ultimate team players spending hundreds of hours into this garbage ( the slaves)
other game modes players (the forgotten)

just remember this company has absolutely zero respect for its customer base neglecting to fix problems that lingered there for years,and manipulating the game design into luring you into playing ultimate team and spending money on fifa points,seeing also the amount of spending that goes into the game ea never considered subsidizing the game and made it more friendly to the community,plus server problem that is there forever.

not to mention of course cheating,and its just shows you how little respect ea got for you while you spend money and time on this,they never fixed it and its so mind blowing but expected at this point that they will not fix or address this huge issue.

to sum up:
ea got no respect for you while they want to make the most amount of money off of you,plus if you are buying this game thinking of playing football know this you are playing a card stat driven manipulated game with dynamic difficulty.
i honestly believe this game is going to be the worst iteration of fifa ever from my perspective of course but its going to be with the help of morons the best game in ea's perspective.
i can not recommend not buying this game enough if you are decent and want to be sane and have fun playing video games.

Maybe the so called "Skilled Players" are not as good as they think they are and need to blame the game? Just a thought! Anyway it's only a game - don't buy it if you don't like it - Simple. I have fun in career mode and currently it's better than any other football game out there so I'll grin and bear it .... as for FUT ... pah. :steamsad:

THE GAME is not released yet.
At least if I'm buying this, I'll only do single player

There is no skill involved when the game starts and the opponent disconnects you and he gets a win and you get a loss.

Besides, nobody here is telling what other people should buy or not, but spreading the current situation of the game for everybody that is not aware of it.

I don't see absolute any problem with that, expect for fanboys.
