I'm very happy that someone finally commented on exactly what I've been thinking for a long time. People started treating video games purely as a job, a sense of obligation. People no longer seem to care about the experience of that time invested, and this is not just about FIFA. Of course, a multiplayer game, in most cases, is about winning, but that doesn't mean people need to give up any sense of relaxation or any shred of fun to be able to play a game.

[@georgemocanu1597]

In game reward system destroyed fun. In cs:go or overwatch we have a ranking system that, after a while, doesnt really matter to most of us. I still want to win but i am not sacrificing fun. I play the hero i want, i use the gun i want and if i win its all good, if i lose, no biggie. In fifa you need those packs to improve your team and the only way to get them is by winning no matter the cost. You are forced in 2 scenarios if you want a to have a good team. Either be a rat and get those packs or spend your hard earned money to buy those packs. Its a flawed system and no matter what EA will do, players will always discover new toxic ways to get that win.

[@darotm7628]

Thanks

[@amc9]

This just says one thing to me. We need a longer version of RatMas this year Nick. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

[@RealFilio]

So the point at 26:00 reminded me of something some friends and I discussed. Not entirely on topic, but the reason that people rat out games in general to guarantee a result, in my opinion, has to do with the popularity of gaming on twitch and video-games having a growing competitive scene. People now associate success and enjoyment with WINNING. FUN = WINNING to so many people, especially in this FIFA community. It's no longer a matter of competitive nature when someone starts sweating against you and trying to have fun. People immediately do what they can to increase their odds of winning a game to guarantee the result so that they can mimic pros and these guys on twitch that are really good at the game. No one plays anymore to have "fun", it's now entirely just about being good at the game and trying to be as close to a professional level as possible, even if in reality 99% of these people will never reach a pro level and compete for money. This same shift in mentality can be seen with a lot of youtube content creation. Games like COD, 2K, FIFA, etc are now plagued with the BEST formations, the BEST build, the BEST setup, 20-0 rewards, 100 game streak, 100kill game. I again, attribute this to the rise of competitive gameplay and the popularity of twitch. It gave people a way to easily platform their skills and makes everyone want to be the "next guy." Hell I'll put some blame on Fortnite's competitive scene for killing enjoyment, IMO that game made it mainstream to be a professional gamer and a professional sweat. TLDR; Twitch and Professional Gaming killed creativity and enjoyment on games by creating a mentality shift on what's considered "fun" and everyone wants to mimic a pro now.

There's not enough of a deterrent against rats using constant pressure for the whole game, it states in the description that it drains more stamina, but every time I look at my opponents stamina bars, they are either identical to mine, or only slightly worse off, by half time my opponents players should be exhausted, forcing them into a change of tactics, and then to top it off their defensive depth is always on no more than 20 with that god damn long ball chance creation tactic straight up to Haaland or IF Sorloth

[@Whiruz]

21:23 "It was at this moment that he knew, He f**d up"

[@wingthomaux]

In my experience in this game the only way to defend is to use a press or atleast manual Team press sometimes. If you don’t use any press variation, your opponent will just hold the ball and push you back into your penalty box and then trivella, elastico or just lucky bounce though your team. Sometimes it feels like I can only win the ball back with team press, unless the opponent makes a stupid mistake in build up. I never used constant pressure or another press btw, just Team press with what I consider good timing
