that is because i believe the fundamental stats are just procentual chances and not their actual skill, otherwise i wouldn't crack some goals across the penalty box with freeze marquinhos since his finishing is like 50
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
Not everybody can stand a guy with barely 30k subs crying in every single video if there was at least some content besides or ideas how to improve nah it's just straight up crying. This subject needs to be explained to wider audience by somebody who is actually good at it and can shed some light into this problem. Main audience of video like this should be parents of the kids who are actually main income for EA. Unless they care nothing will change in FIFA and people actually playing it and making videos are just helping them to do it all over again every fucking year
The game doesn't follow any football logic. Another thing is the ball movement in the game. In no way am I a hardcore PES fan, but that game actually has a ball that acts like a ball (and isn't constantly glued to players).
Hmm. PES argument is non existent. I've been playing PES and FIFA for years but this realistic approach with pes and non gluing of ball hurts the game. In favour og realistic body movement, the game lacks responsiveness. The worst part is I didn't say animations because many animations are very lackluster in PES still Also, both FIFA and PES have followed one shit gameplay since 2017.. go watch pesep right now, his latest video and you will taste FIFA in their
You know what happened there? I think even you also mentioned this before, we think we do things in the game, in reality we barely have any true control. So what happened there was that the game engine made the usual "roll" (like an rpg) taking into account all factors (position, passing stats, defensive stats, current match result, time of match, velocity, etc) and decided the pass "was going to be successful" (see how I phrased it), so the game works whatever way it can to make it happen. You see this all the time when players miss easy 5m passes, or when it distorts players trying to make the animation system sync with the result of whatever action is happening, you "lost" the hidden roll. Like those weird not-autoblocks when you see a leg raise just to let a shot through, the game decided that shot "was going to be successful", so if there was an actual physical body in front of the ball the game makes sure it doesn't interfere with what it has "decided". FIFA is a complete illusion of control and will continue to be while EA rakes in billions and almost every default is on "assisted".
Welcome to FIFA since 5 years ago. Arguably, its always been kind of that way, only FIFA 17 took it to a whole new level, and its just arguably gotten even worse since then. But you know whats also increased since then? EAs profit. Sadface
This is the deal folks. I Dont know if you guys are aware of this, but FiFA is made to reduce the skill gap level, fifa is oriented towards low skilled players
True, in the example i always run backwards with the CB instead of mirroring the runner.. so if the pass is made im still im a situation where i can try and stop him in stead of being beaten by pace and the attacker is trough on goal
Oh also, this Way OP players like kante in the midfield runs and defends of the ball, same with attacking players like mbappe or neymar will go trough your defense with ease and score goals. This is the Pay to Win machine in motion
@@rasulabernathy4110 yes defending his op, do you not see how far a defender can make a interception? Varane got 1 of the longest reach for an interception. Spam circle and Varane gonna carry you. Not only that Fifa 21 defending is 50x easier than Fifa 20 when it comes to manually defending. Play them both right now and tell me which is easier. Also gotta look at how bad Fifa 20 attacking creativity is.
@@rasulabernathy4110 then team press is just a bail out and you spamming circle gives you a free interception and low depth 😑 and shot blocks. Nobody would be complaining about low depth if defending was not so easy. Jockey in the middle then chase down from behind makes the game just boring because jockeying is easy this year and low depth with easy defending is 1 reason why everyone plays possesion attack type fifa
lovro1994 Same bro it was easy, there’s too much wrong with the game and its not worth the stress. A lot of people still got the game, I don’t know why after 20 and 19
My favourite topic on the channel and the reason i quit fut in 19. Having a good football brain for runs, channels, spaces, angles doesn't reward you. Take this fat like from me, hope passing is not a scam one day.
Honestly this channel is what I needed. As a veteran FIFA player, it’s nice to have a channel breaking down game mechanics. FIFA 20 has been a nightmare for me. I saw your video about how any passes on the pitch don’t matter. AI runs are unrealistic and locking onto the ball on defense is problematic. Thank you for all your videos!
@@1999deshan That's precisely why. In a skill-based game, great FIFA players would win no matter how bad their team is, and therefore they wouldn't spend money; whereas casual FIFA players would lose no matter how good their team is, and therefore they wouldn't spend money. The importance of skill is dialed down so that the importance of buying packs is dialed up.
Thats why its not competitive mate. The only competitive thing about FUT is «how deep are your pockets?». Its never been competitive mate. At any point. Youre all fooled.
And another thing Stallion, the goal was coincidentally scored at 45 minutes (half-time), I cannot stress enough how this rediculous momentum mechanic needs to be removed, when you dominate a player for the majority of the game they should not be getting bailed out by these 45 and 90 minute goals, all of a sudden there players make these blistering fast runs and just push past any of your CB’s no matter how perfect you read the play or it’s about 200 odd rebounds outside your area until the player eventually scores. Game is a load of dogshit. Sorry for the rant.
I wish everyone ranted like this, then EA might understand the frustration.. But I we read and write these comments somewhere in the world there are some kids who are loading up their parents credit cards to give EA some more money, and those (surprisingly) are the ones who you hardly hear complaining..
Great video Stallion. Again presenting a well founded argument/rational supported by facts. The problem is, unfortunatly, our biological baggage of relying on mysticism and beliefs rather than facts - that's why you get these nonsensical rebuttals. Oh, and there is the quote, can't remember who said it (Mark Twain maybe), that "common sense ain't that common anymore".
@@youngmicrowave127 defending after 2 patches is more easier than Fifa 20 it’s not even close. Fifa 20 defending manually was fine but the AI assist to manually intercept a ball or AI intercepting everything was assisted like crazy
@@No-tt4og nah defending is terrible. Tell me how on earth could a guy just turn and get away from me even though he is being marked and I haven't even made a tackle. Also how on earth am I suppose to get a tackle in if my defender stay 10 feet away from the attacker... Another thing is tackling is simply nonexistent.
Honestly I do believe the game should be manual. I'm not a FIFA online player, but I don't have fun if the game literally plays for me. When I play against my friends they play on assisted and they will almost never fail a pass and almost every shot goes on target. In the other hand, I have to slowly build up a play and skillfully make safes passes and a lot of times I'll just fuck it up, and the completed passes are always like 90% against 60/70%. And when I'm finally on the box maybe I will or I will not score. For me playing assisted is like playing COD with aimbot.
As long as it benefits the casuals who play an hour and a half every week because they are the ones that are more likely to spend fifa points to get a different team. The more random the game is the better for ea as the average joe will always have a chance to score an undeserved goal
Bro, what Adama was doing is a ball-roll-into-pass, surely you know about this. For me, he was really intending to make a through ball to the space you weren't aware to guard because you are tracking the runner. He knew you'll track the runner so he just passed to the space in the hope his runner would somehow be able to connect with it because of the runner's pace stats. I do this a lot (skill move into a pass) and skillin' before a pass kind of opens up angle for you, which was exactly what he did. He ball-rolled before the through ball and he didn't exactly know if it will work in his favour or not, but he knew from that situation it's the best decision to be made. If he didn't do a ball roll and just do a through ball, he knew chances are you'll track the run well. In these scenarios, it's best to not touch the CBs and only switch when the final pass has been made. This way of defending is exactly how EA wants us to defend, to let the AI defend the majority of situations. On that note, the last update sucks big time (Title Update 5), passing is nerfed (in line with what you wanted) and AI defending is buffed big time (first defender logic is very similar to 20). You reallly need to address this update, it's making 21 very much just 20 with crossing and directional runs and it's a very different game from what we played in EA Play trial period.............
I 100% understand your logic & reason for selecting your cb to block the pass. In basically every fifa before 20 this would make sense but what i've realized since fifa 20 onwards is that you've got to be alot more active with your central defenders for tackling & blocking passes. I'm still getting accostomed to this new kind of defensive strategy but this is only way you can 'manually' defend when your opponent is in mid-field & further away from the box. If you dont get ball with the cdms, cms etc then you have to rely on the ai of the last line of defenders to get into/be in position to block passes or so that when you player switch, you can tackle successfully.
For this very reason once someone has a counter attack I take one centerback and sprint backwards then grab my other cb and start defending that way there is someone behind me ready to pick up these shitty passes
Ye that’s defending 101 but unless you’re playing Gomez and Varane at the back with shadows like 90% of players do, the attacker will effortlessly glide past your defenders anyways
i'll say it once again, passing in this game needs to be burned to the ground and reworked completely. assistance needs to go down a lot, and needs to barely exist, mostly to let casuals have fun and to give us some kind of a "fluent" game. i'm not a fan of full manual, but i'd like to see a level even lower than current "semi" be a maximum level. at least in competitive modes (all fut modes basically). and one more thing i'll repeat, ASSISTANCE SHOULD BE CALCULATED AT THE TIME PASSING COMMAND WAS ISSUED. currently, you press pass, and the game calculates the assistance after that, when the player is shooting the ball, completely wrong and once again, takes away the skill gap.
Right now i got caught in neverending cycle of matches that i should win but i lose them and matches that i should lost but i won them. Its not even assisted passing Its assisted everything. Match after Match i lose any fun even if i win. Wl is a brainless grind that makes me feel empty inside after those 30 games. Not even one thing looks/works for me as it should. Sometimes i feel like fifa has 21 different gameplayes, today its slow tomorrow its fast etc. I'm 34 yo dude who cries in the yt comments about how this game is unfair. I think i need a break after 10 y of non stop playing fifa. Ehhhhh
@@lojkas8924 Momentum at its Best. Normal day at fifa. Sometimes its so hard to judge who has skills and whos carried by Momentum. Cheers mate. Dont get carried away by this stupid game.
Again, couldnt agree more. This is one of soooooo many examples of how broken the passing game is in fifa. And you re absolutely on point stating that this issue has been in the game for a long time. And by long time it means since fifa 14 or 15 at the very least. Remember ping pong fifa ? We re basically back to this with the added shit of passing now completely dodgning manual defending. Truth is this : if fifa was stripped of both this insane passing assistance and AI defense, litterally 80% of the player base would be clueless as how to play this game as they re now so fully used to having their hands held by the game over the entire pitch.
My man Valerio needs to be hired by EA! He knows exactly what makes a good game. Unfortunately EA has no interest in making a good, less frustrating game.
Sure if it was their intention to make the game as rewarding as possible. Unfortunately theyre not looking to make the game fair, but instead have it assist a casual player as much as possible.
Good video. The passing assistance is the main reason I play fifa less, so I'm glad to see a content creator explaining why it's a problem. It's true the game shouldn't be fully manual but the balance isn't right and I don't think EA are capable of coding a balanced game.
One of Fifa 21 claims: “intelligent runs.” (What a joke). 1. Cause in previous fifa there was only stupid runs. 2. thare are NO intelligent runs in the game, and on top of that there are NO intelligent passes. 3. The gameplay rewards “smart” (in the worst sense) players and not intelligent ones. -- 4. The situation you so rightfully describe in your video is one of the hundreds that dont make any sense in terms of gameplay. Conclusion: As everybody very well knows the game is just a gambling machine designed to frustrate players into buying “better” players only to see their peeformance reduced to nothing.. why? So you spend more money in packs. Thank God a few countries are banning pack selling (the game is Pegi 3!) cause they start realizing it is a diabolical gambling machine!!
I think Adama’s pass works because of the ball roll. It seems that once a skill move is performed the ai takes over and thinks more space was created which assists the run and pass.
I got the real answer. Adamas passing was soooo bad and on his 2*wf that he meant to play the ball where the player was running but it was soooo scuffed that it ended up just a foot race which Ronaldo locked onto first
The weakfoot works on a precentage EA said awhile back I believe...SO 5 star = 100% of the stats and subsequently reduce by 20% each star you remove so Adama would have been operating on 40% of those stats for that pass LOL.. Meaning about 35 Short passing, 22 Long passing and 29 curve for that particular pass IF he had a Deadeye . This game is a joke.
Best way to avoid these situations would be to cancel the assisted controls. I cannot understand how it is even possible, that pro players, who earn a lot of money for playing the game, are not forced to play with full manual controls. That is just ridiculous. I play with full manual controls for years now and it is still really hard to play successfully (you miss the goal a lot of times, make wrong passes etc). But it is ok, as long as the opponents are also playing with no assistance. The game feels so more self-controlled. Of course, you still have the momentum moments, but at least you know, when you are scoring, that you did it because of your own good aiming/passing etc. The problem is, that you can just play like this with friends, because nobody (even the so called pro gamers) plays with full manual controls online...
In the real world player would also adjust their run in a situation like this, this wasn't a crazy adjustment. I completely see the point about the game assisting the pass too much and putting the defense into a lose lose situation.
There was a headless chicken named Magic Mike, who survived decapitation, he lived for almoat 2 years, so being a headless chicken is something to be proud of..
Stallion - I am not half of the player you are with this game, but I've suffered nearly as much as you have from the overpowered attacking emphasis in '21. I play mostly online seasons, as I like to play with the club I support. The mechanics remain as frustrating there as they do in FUT, etc. I believe that EA has made a decision to nerf defending with this title AND boost attacking to make the game "more fun". I could see the planning meeting with EA's head developers asking, "What is fun about football.... Skill moves and scoring! Lets get back to that this year". I wish a better football simulation existed and I've thought about PES as an alternative, but I don't want to mess with downloading all the real player names/teams, etc. So I'm stuck with this game.
Yes. That’s why I don’t track I just run back because in that situation you have no control. The game’s designed to have you on tracks. As long as there is auto assisted plus all other boosts it’s a sweat. But since most players have no skill and use pace stats it’s easy to defend once you let them tire there players out. If you survive the assisted high press, attack constant press assault
This whole discussion tangentially reflects some broader opinions I've had about FIFA as someone who started in '12. When I first saw this video I assumed that the Traore who made this pass was some sort of special card. Another player with a bunch of crazy stats inflated and able to play in almost any position effectively due to the combination of pace, physicality, etc. Hell I remember in another video where someone is playing Son at CM in a 451, and probably succeeds a lot by doing so. What happened to player variety? What variety exists when everyone is using players with Gullit Gang stats in each position? Back during my time (boomer) in fifa 12-14 I felt that while the game was geting more 'balanced' so to speak, it also became less and less fun, I blame a lot of this on the introduction of seasons as the main ultimate team mode. Single matches in fifa 12 rewarded creative team building, and encouraged the usage of silvers and even bronzes to an extent. This wasn't without its flaws. pace abuse was the main meme, finesse shots were pretty overtuned, but the game was still fun. You would still come up against hybrids, or teams that have a bunch of five star skillers. While overall gaming has generally followed this trend of extreme competitiveness, I feel that FIFA is where I felt this the most. I was and am still pretty good, but my reasons for playing fifa exist outside of determining how good I am or trying to win as much as possible. FIFA is an extension of my passion for soccer, and unfortunately EA cornering the market and following the trend of competitiveness has really ousted people like me from the game. How many of us used to browse FUTHEAD every day lol, finding weird or fun players from obscure leagues and building teams around them *for fun.* Playing against the AI in any fifa is categorically, unfun, to me, but I don't want to be forced to either follow the meta/sweat of the game or play at a disadvantage constantly. Why should I have to make that choice? Playing FIFA 12 with an emulator vs friends is currently bringing me a lot of joy, more joy than I think I would experience playing FUT 21, or subsequent FIFA titles. I cant speak on how it would be possible, but a return to the Arcadey style of FIA 12 where the game felt to me, as more of a celebration of world football, would see an improvement across the board. As Stallion has showed with multiple videos, clearly trying to balance gameplay is not EA's strong sort.
Passing in FIFA 21 is strange... Though for the receiver, if you examine... He starts his run before the defender who makes almost 180 turn, then accelerates giving the already running striker an edge but... What the hell? Just pass into any random space and the receiver follows accurately... Seriously FIFA, what the bloody hell? Assist is only used to correct to a small degree because manual passing is hard in a lively and fast paced game(sorry, almost forgot that graveyard minimap) Thanks for vid, stallion.
I mean all the passing assistance and mechanics you talk about are definitely in the game, I just don't think you can definitively say they didn't aim that pass there. That looks exactly like a scenario ive had many times, and I always play the ball into the space/behind the tracking player. That being said even if they aimed that way the game most likely heavily assisted them to get that inch perfect weighting, overhitting that pass would be the main risk.
Good analysis as always bro. This is always jarring when it goes my way also. EA should give us sliders (0 to 100, 0 for manual, 100 for full assisted) for passing/shooting & power assistance instead of presets (manual, semi, assisted) With this every player can find the sweet spot that works perfectly for them
@@eosobande you really wanna face a pro player on 100 pass assistance while you on semi? You tryharding for 1 goal on one end, and a random through ball attracts a run from nowhere that avoids your cbs and you concede that easily 😂
The funny thing is, if i use assisted, my through balls will always go everywhere except where i want them to go and eventually being intercepted or sending my runnen to the corner flag. So i use semi. BUT now, the opponent uses assisted... xavi and iniesta combined posses his saint maximin
Yea I agree if u mark passes or make good passes the game doesn’t like that and mess’s it up but a player that makes horrible passes gets rewarded with a better pass then what they had it annoys me that skill isn’t that much of a factor when you can tackle a player 10 times and intercept but they still keep it it’s ridiculous thanks for shedding some light on this ea need to fix their shit
Another supporting evidence to show that Stallion's opponent's intention was to pass btwn the 2 defenders was the ball roll to change the angle narrower, as without the ball roll the bottom defender would have a better chance of intercepting the pass
I don't support any of those arguments. The argument I actually could support, from the AI perspective, is that you have Varane's hips square to Traore, and in real life, were you to pass a ball in that fashion, Varane is totally off balance to handle that pass. Rodrigo's momentum continues forward while Varane has to turn 180, and so putting the ball squarely behind Varane is actually not a terrible choice given Rodrigo's movement. Varane turns his hips, Rodrigo bumps up past him, and Rodrigo has the momentum to get there in reality. Your positioning and most importantly, your balance and squaring up your hips is what makes it sensible that pass could actually be picked. I don't think Traore should be able to deliver that pass so readily, but I will say GIVEN the pass being correctly handled, the defending and physical movement does invite that situation if Varane is knocked off balance by Rodrigo.
The main thing for me is how the run changes basically at the exact moment the pass is played, as if Rodrigo telepathically knows that the pass is going to be played to the opposite direction of his run and also knows the exact timing of the pass. This makes no sense given real football logic. It would have to be an extreme coincidence for something like this to happen in a real game but it's a norm in FIFA.
@@Missedbyawhisker In a real game you'd assume it was something sorted on the training ground between the players, in FIFA it makes little sense. I can agree with that part of the assessment. The player does immediately take control of Rodrigo and begin directing him on that direction change.
If you watch it again it looks like varane is initiating a shoulder to shoulder but then breaks that to make a failed interception attempt. Whether that was intentional or computer AI i dont know, but im positive that's why the defender doesn't take the ball and hold off the attacker
I don’t know if anyone agree with me but it shows that varan made a tackle before the ball go through thats why he couldn’t get enough speed to track the player. Idk if that’s ai tackle or u did the tackle by mistake.
Yeah it sure looks that way. He makes a valid point but he doesn't address how he could have defended it better. Holding Lt would have seen his defender hold off the striker and take the ball. I know bullshit happens but it does in real life. It's impossible to make a game that pleases everyone
8:21 i asked myself that question on day 1 of the game.I noticed very early that i was being punished for manually defending.I'm glad i didn't buy fifa this year.
The star weekfoot in the game does not alter the stats, it is a multiplayer from 0 to 1 that alter the probability of the pass/shot itself. For example last year, 4 stars multiplayer was 0.75, that means that there is 75% chance that the pass you made with the weekfoot will work as if it would have been made with the strong foot. In the case of your clip with Adama 2 stars would mean 0.25, so no comment...
Tbh, that pass by adama is nothing unusual much really. If I was Adama, giving direct pass into a gap where close left and right of the gap where two defenders guarding like you suggested would be stupid. Risk of interception. But yeah the pass is too guided. The attacking mechanism became way too OP for defender in game to defend. But that technique do happened irl. Also, the turning or stopping animation is ridiculous. Way too sudden. You have a decent point on the passing, just a bit trying to contradict a real life technique. But one thing I like about FIFA21 is the defender vs attacker speed adjustment didn't really exist anymore. In the old titles, even if you're using Salah to run for through pass against Ramos, Ramos probably be able to catch you. Maybe you should play full manual or at least semi auto feature. Full auto are meant to either help you in ridiculous way, or to fuck you up in ridiculous way
If they patch this and actually those overpowerd trough balls and defenders actually stick there foot out and goalkeepers not making space for attackers to score you wil see how many people wil stop playing because they realise they have no skill and the game was helping them al these years
The only people who won’t agree with this mess are those who benefit from this crap. That pass should have never gone through but this fifa like 19 and 20 were created to help out noobs with no skills. It’s simple
And people put money in this game to get better cards when, in fact, does not even matter... Because the game has the last word, not you, not your cards...
@Nemesis 86 the game is for sure a pay to win but you do not necessarily win just because you have better players... Everyone that played FIFA long enough already raged losing a game against a worst team and player... But because the AI decides what will happen next, your +10M squad is worthless in that scenario...
The counter argument u made to the first point is exactly why you pass to the wrong player. It never goes where u aim it to go, clearly, and the game interpreted that u want to pass to someone else, when u clearly were not aiming there. That might honestly be the most infuriating part of the game
This story always happen. Bro i have no idea how adama can pass or bang shots with his left like that. What's the diffrence between a master passer and a player with 66 passing stats? So why should we buy cruyff when 79 rated adama can do all his speciality with no failure?
I think all ground passes are affected by the short pass stat, regardless of the distance of the pass. Notwithstanding this and even the probable deadeye style, the passing system in FIFA is garbage and it is not improving at all as years go by. Absolute tragedy.
Italian. I feel your last comment on Adama's passing should be enough to show how f***ed up the Fifa system is. Shouldn't matter on the runs if the passer has a 70 passing, passes with left foot while being a right-footed 2* weak foot.
This is the equivalent of Call of Duty forcing you to run into a shower of bullets. Quality videos bro, but unfortunately EA is too busy designing cute kits, tifos, fireworks, confetti and wacky waving inflatable tubes for 12 year olds.
pls dont block me, but I have one argument 🥸 what if the pass went that way bc it was adams left foot so he missed where he wanted to pass the the mistake was also its blessing 🤓 get it?
Fifa tried giving us what we wanted with Fifa 16 (perfect amount of pass assistance), but all the kids called it the worst fifa. Fifa will always be a scum game, play something else.
That's why I stopped playing the game I felt that I win games that I dont deserve and lose for bullshit animations that my opponent doesn't deserve alot of my passes and my opponents were assisted my skill and the view of the game was irrelevant and meta based which burned the game for me ... even if I dont get messi and Ronaldo I would be happy with the game if my way of play is shown as I like it without mentioning the whole micro transactions wasteland
Imagine man, having to have to deal with this kind of bullshit mechanic ever since FIFA 17, only back then add fucking nutmegs to the mix just to make your on point defending even MORE pointless. The only saving grace for the past is that these kinds of through balls are somewhat of a new thing, however it explains how passing assistance has worked in every other facet of the game, ever since they released FIFA 17. The truth is, whats the point of defending, whats the point of reading the game, and analyzing the clues the game gives you, when how the game works is that when you go one way as a defender - reading the game and the movement of your opponent, the game will decide that the opponent pass goes the other way after the person holding the controller has made an error, all thanks to how assistance works? Like I've said many, many, many times before, and for several years running now - passing in this game frequently rewards bad decisions and punish good decisions. Its just bullshit. And this applies to so many facets and various situations of the game. And thats just one of its major flaws, making this game into casual garbage, made for kids so that they enjoy it and spend money. Because if they would be punished for their mistakes on a regular basis, they would lose interest quicker. I mean, who has time to learn how to actually play a game properly? According to EA, apparently no one. The thing that also hits home to me is when you answer the question "Whats the point of a good passer then?". Thats been my point with FUT the last half a decade. However, how I would say it is "what is the point of playing when the game does this? where's the skill gap when assistance works this way?". The answer is its ruined. Its casual, assisted, broken, pay 2 win garbage. Competitive FIFA? Hah. Give me a fucking break! Its a joke! Its all designed to be an advert to maximize profit on its braindead customers. Someone needs to shove this video into EA's face, unfortunately - they will never change because this is where the money is at. If it wasnt for the fact that you are trying to make a career on this shit, I'd say just give it up. I've been trying to argue these things for the last 5 years, and all that's done is the game has just gotten even worse... But with that said....... keep up the good work! I hope this video gets millions of view...... but to get that you have to make pack opening reaction videos like the rest of the game destroyers. Lol.... FML
Game is dead, I can't stand this game anymore, it's not skill anymore so why do we play a game that punishes skill.... and the noobs I play are that thick that they actually think they have won the game without any AI aid even though stats are about 60% possession and 12 shots vs their 40% and 3 shots.... just infuriating
8:17 The passing and defence stats don't matter in this game, same as chem styles. If players played to their stats in this game, maybe it wouldn't be this bad. I use Firmino and G.Jesus as CBs and they are incredible!!!!!
You are right about all the passing things but if you’re wondering why he got passed your CB after the bs pass is because you can tell u clicked B to tackle and didn’t reach so right there the striker beat u on the run but yes the pass things is true it’s all rigged
This is why i retired from fifa and why i stopped playing assisted passing. I dunno where the fun in playing assisted passing. You score unbelievable long shot? Nope, the assist did that, not you lol.
I think you are wrong. The default setting for thru ball is semi assisted. If he had it on assisted the pass would have gone where you tracked but you can force a thru ball on the other side by aiming the stick that direction. I dont say he actually wanted to pass there but the game does what you tell if to do, most of the times. So yeah, he decided the trajectory. Go in a game and try it yourself, i was frustrated by this myself and it actually does matter where you aim for a thru ball
Dont get me wrong, i do agree with you that the game needs fixing at passes, especially the assisted pass where you cut the passing lane and the AI decides to pass it 1 meter sideways so it can reach. Thats bullshit and it promotes getting away with mistakes, but in this specific case you cant totally agree with you.
If you want the game to be good, everyone needs to stop buying their product. You would see major fixes Within a calendar year. Buy pes and download the option file on ps5 or get mods for pc for a year. I have not bought madden, fifa,nba live, in the last 4 years. I refuse to buy their garbage. Only game I buy is nhl and only because they stopped making nhl 2k in 2010. Or I would buying 2k. Stop feeding the beast. Nobody would work harder if they got paid either way.
Dude I heard this so many times and nobody will do that or boycott. This argument is dumb. EA got enough money and people will buy their game because it’s Fifa and ppl not buying they products will not work 😂. Gotta have the whole country of the U.S to even start that 😂
Varane wasn’t properly positioned for a slide tackle , if he did go for the tackle it will be from behind so a foul will be called and he maybe sent off
Adama has a 2 star weak foot. He passes that like he was Xavi
And he has 68 passing
that is because i believe the fundamental stats are just procentual chances and not their actual skill, otherwise i wouldn't crack some goals across the penalty box with freeze marquinhos since his finishing is like 50

Not everybody can stand a guy with barely 30k subs crying in every single video if there was at least some content besides or ideas how to improve nah it's just straight up crying. This subject needs to be explained to wider audience by somebody who is actually good at it and can shed some light into this problem. Main audience of video like this should be parents of the kids who are actually main income for EA. Unless they care nothing will change in FIFA and people actually playing it and making videos are just helping them to do it all over again every fucking year
@@Qeder7771 He is a 30-0 fut champs player. What are you, a peasant in gold 2 ?
The game doesn't follow any football logic. Another thing is the ball movement in the game. In no way am I a hardcore PES fan, but that game actually has a ball that acts like a ball (and isn't constantly glued to players).
Hmm. PES argument is non existent. I've been playing PES and FIFA for years but this realistic approach with pes and non gluing of ball hurts the game. In favour og realistic body movement, the game lacks responsiveness. The worst part is I didn't say animations because many animations are very lackluster in PES still
Also, both FIFA and PES have followed one shit gameplay since 2017.. go watch pesep right now, his latest video and you will taste FIFA in their
You know what happened there? I think even you also mentioned this before, we think we do things in the game, in reality we barely have any true control. So what happened there was that the game engine made the usual "roll" (like an rpg) taking into account all factors (position, passing stats, defensive stats, current match result, time of match, velocity, etc) and decided the pass "was going to be successful" (see how I phrased it), so the game works whatever way it can to make it happen. You see this all the time when players miss easy 5m passes, or when it distorts players trying to make the animation system sync with the result of whatever action is happening, you "lost" the hidden roll. Like those weird not-autoblocks when you see a leg raise just to let a shot through, the game decided that shot "was going to be successful", so if there was an actual physical body in front of the ball the game makes sure it doesn't interfere with what it has "decided". FIFA is a complete illusion of control and will continue to be while EA rakes in billions and almost every default is on "assisted".
Welcome to FIFA since 5 years ago. Arguably, its always been kind of that way, only FIFA 17 took it to a whole new level, and its just arguably gotten even worse since then.
But you know whats also increased since then? EAs profit.
Sadface
@@Driblus Exactly. They won't change as long as the cash money keeps rolling in.
This is the deal folks.
I Dont know if you guys are aware of this, but FiFA is made to reduce the skill gap level, fifa is oriented towards low skilled players
true
True, in the example i always run backwards with the CB instead of mirroring the runner.. so if the pass is made im still im a situation where i can try and stop him in stead of being beaten by pace and the attacker is trough on goal
@@rayg5540 yes that's what I do, give him distance and he has to come to me

Oh also, this Way OP players like kante in the midfield runs and defends of the ball, same with attacking players like mbappe or neymar will go trough your defense with ease and score goals.
This is the Pay to Win machine in motion
I mean you can’t expect players like Zaha to be any where near good 😐. Those points make no sense. The only thing that is OP is passing and defending
@@No-tt4og defending op are we playing the same game?
@@rasulabernathy4110 yes defending his op, do you not see how far a defender can make a interception? Varane got 1 of the longest reach for an interception. Spam circle and Varane gonna carry you.

Also gotta look at how bad Fifa 20 attacking creativity is.
@@rasulabernathy4110 then team press is just a bail out and you spamming circle gives you a free interception and low depth 😑 and shot blocks.

My favourite topic on the channel and the reason i quit fut in 19. Having a good football brain for runs, channels, spaces, angles doesn't reward you.
Take this fat like from me, hope passing is not a scam one day.
Honestly this channel is what I needed. As a veteran FIFA player, it’s nice to have a channel breaking down game mechanics. FIFA 20 has been a nightmare for me. I saw your video about how any passes on the pitch don’t matter. AI runs are unrealistic and locking onto the ball on defense is problematic. Thank you for all your videos!
I just don't understand why there are so many gameplay assists allowed in a competitive game mode.
Because EA only cares about selling packs. They couldn't care less if you don't play or hate the game.
Because if the game actually took skill, Most of the casuals would get banged and not want to spend money on the Game
@@1999deshan That's actually a good point. Money talks.
@@1999deshan That's precisely why. In a skill-based game, great FIFA players would win no matter how bad their team is, and therefore they wouldn't spend money; whereas casual FIFA players would lose no matter how good their team is, and therefore they wouldn't spend money. The importance of skill is dialed down so that the importance of buying packs is dialed up.
Thats why its not competitive mate. The only competitive thing about FUT is «how deep are your pockets?».
Its never been competitive mate. At any point. Youre all fooled.
As usual, vote Stallion for eternal ruler of the universe.
And another thing Stallion, the goal was coincidentally scored at 45 minutes (half-time), I cannot stress enough how this rediculous momentum mechanic needs to be removed, when you dominate a player for the majority of the game they should not be getting bailed out by these 45 and 90 minute goals, all of a sudden there players make these blistering fast runs and just push past any of your CB’s no matter how perfect you read the play or it’s about 200 odd rebounds outside your area until the player eventually scores. Game is a load of dogshit.
Sorry for the rant.
I wish everyone ranted like this, then EA might understand the frustration.. But I we read and write these comments somewhere in the world there are some kids who are loading up their parents credit cards to give EA some more money, and those (surprisingly) are the ones who you hardly hear complaining..
AP90 omg your so right the amount of goals scored in extra time slots is ridiculous
Its all the same mechanics than in fifa 20. Same names in leaderboards. Etc. EA U can die from Corona
Great video Stallion. Again presenting a well founded argument/rational supported by facts. The problem is, unfortunatly, our biological baggage of relying on mysticism and beliefs rather than facts - that's why you get these nonsensical rebuttals. Oh, and there is the quote, can't remember who said it (Mark Twain maybe), that "common sense ain't that common anymore".
The one's that defend scripting piss me off to no end. Like how can you be that dense

Assisted passing is op it's not going to change bro
And yet still ppl ask for manual defending when they have no issue with this smh
It also messes up your attacks just as often if not more. It needs nerfing but that's not going to happen.
It’s inconsistent, simple passes don’t go through and weird angle passes go through some how
@@youngmicrowave127 defending after 2 patches is more easier than Fifa 20 it’s not even close. Fifa 20 defending manually was fine but the AI assist to manually intercept a ball or AI intercepting everything was assisted like crazy
@@No-tt4og nah defending is terrible. Tell me how on earth could a guy just turn and get away from me even though he is being marked and I haven't even made a tackle. Also how on earth am I suppose to get a tackle in if my defender stay 10 feet away from the attacker... Another thing is tackling is simply nonexistent.
Honestly I do believe the game should be manual. I'm not a FIFA online player, but I don't have fun if the game literally plays for me. When I play against my friends they play on assisted and they will almost never fail a pass and almost every shot goes on target. In the other hand, I have to slowly build up a play and skillfully make safes passes and a lot of times I'll just fuck it up, and the completed passes are always like 90% against 60/70%. And when I'm finally on the box maybe I will or I will not score. For me playing assisted is like playing COD with aimbot.
As long as it benefits the casuals who play an hour and a half every week because they are the ones that are more likely to spend fifa points to get a different team. The more random the game is the better for ea as the average joe will always have a chance to score an undeserved goal
Bro, what Adama was doing is a ball-roll-into-pass, surely you know about this. For me, he was really intending to make a through ball to the space you weren't aware to guard because you are tracking the runner. He knew you'll track the runner so he just passed to the space in the hope his runner would somehow be able to connect with it because of the runner's pace stats. I do this a lot (skill move into a pass) and skillin' before a pass kind of opens up angle for you, which was exactly what he did. He ball-rolled before the through ball and he didn't exactly know if it will work in his favour or not, but he knew from that situation it's the best decision to be made. If he didn't do a ball roll and just do a through ball, he knew chances are you'll track the run well.
In these scenarios, it's best to not touch the CBs and only switch when the final pass has been made. This way of defending is exactly how EA wants us to defend, to let the AI defend the majority of situations. On that note, the last update sucks big time (Title Update 5), passing is nerfed (in line with what you wanted) and AI defending is buffed big time (first defender logic is very similar to 20). You reallly need to address this update, it's making 21 very much just 20 with crossing and directional runs and it's a very different game from what we played in EA Play trial period.............
I 100% understand your logic & reason for selecting your cb to block the pass. In basically every fifa before 20 this would make sense but what i've realized since fifa 20 onwards is that you've got to be alot more active with your central defenders for tackling & blocking passes. I'm still getting accostomed to this new kind of defensive strategy but this is only way you can 'manually' defend when your opponent is in mid-field & further away from the box. If you dont get ball with the cdms, cms etc then you have to rely on the ai of the last line of defenders to get into/be in position to block passes or so that when you player switch, you can tackle successfully.
For this very reason once someone has a counter attack I take one centerback and sprint backwards then grab my other cb and start defending that way there is someone behind me ready to pick up these shitty passes
Ye that’s defending 101 but unless you’re playing Gomez and Varane at the back with shadows like 90% of players do, the attacker will effortlessly glide past your defenders anyways
This is 99% of the goals i concede, and my opponents would think there're teckz or something after scoring a goal like this
i'll say it once again, passing in this game needs to be burned to the ground and reworked completely.
assistance needs to go down a lot, and needs to barely exist, mostly to let casuals have fun and to give us some kind of a "fluent" game.
i'm not a fan of full manual, but i'd like to see a level even lower than current "semi" be a maximum level. at least in competitive modes (all fut modes basically).
and one more thing i'll repeat, ASSISTANCE SHOULD BE CALCULATED AT THE TIME PASSING COMMAND WAS ISSUED. currently, you press pass, and the game calculates the assistance after that, when the player is shooting the ball, completely wrong and once again, takes away the skill gap.
Right now i got caught in neverending cycle of matches that i should win but i lose them and matches that i should lost but i won them. Its not even assisted passing Its assisted everything. Match after Match i lose any fun even if i win. Wl is a brainless grind that makes me feel empty inside after those 30 games. Not even one thing looks/works for me as it should. Sometimes i feel like fifa has 21 different gameplayes, today its slow tomorrow its fast etc. I'm 34 yo dude who cries in the yt comments about how this game is unfair. I think i need a break after 10 y of non stop playing fifa. Ehhhhh

@@lojkas8924 Momentum at its Best. Normal day at fifa. Sometimes its so hard to judge who has skills and whos carried by Momentum. Cheers mate. Dont get carried away by this stupid game.
Again, couldnt agree more. This is one of soooooo many examples of how broken the passing game is in fifa. And you re absolutely on point stating that this issue has been in the game for a long time. And by long time it means since fifa 14 or 15 at the very least. Remember ping pong fifa ? We re basically back to this with the added shit of passing now completely dodgning manual defending. Truth is this : if fifa was stripped of both this insane passing assistance and AI defense, litterally 80% of the player base would be clueless as how to play this game as they re now so fully used to having their hands held by the game over the entire pitch.
Passing is so inconsistent I don’t know which pass to play anymore. Football logic just doesn’t apply
You are absolutely right. The game just decides who wins and who loses. Case close. EA watches all of these but does nothing.
One of my favorite FIFA CZcamsrs, I remember seeing you on the Guide
My man Valerio needs to be hired by EA! He knows exactly what makes a good game. Unfortunately EA has no interest in making a good, less frustrating game.
Sure if it was their intention to make the game as rewarding as possible. Unfortunately theyre not looking to make the game fair, but instead have it assist a casual player as much as possible.
@@Ism0Lait3la I completely agree buddy. We all suffer.
Good video. The passing assistance is the main reason I play fifa less, so I'm glad to see a content creator explaining why it's a problem. It's true the game shouldn't be fully manual but the balance isn't right and I don't think EA are capable of coding a balanced game.
One of Fifa 21 claims: “intelligent runs.” (What a joke).
1. Cause in previous fifa there was only stupid runs.
2. thare are NO intelligent runs in the game, and on top of that there are NO intelligent passes.
3. The gameplay rewards “smart” (in the worst sense) players and not intelligent ones.
--
4. The situation you so rightfully describe in your video is one of the hundreds that dont make any sense in terms of gameplay.
Conclusion:
As everybody very well knows the game is just a gambling machine designed to frustrate players into buying “better” players only to see their peeformance reduced to nothing.. why? So you spend more money in packs.
Thank God a few countries are banning pack selling (the game is Pegi 3!) cause they start realizing it is a diabolical gambling machine!!
I think Adama’s pass works because of the ball roll. It seems that once a skill move is performed the ai takes over and thinks more space was created which assists the run and pass.
I got the real answer. Adamas passing was soooo bad and on his 2*wf that he meant to play the ball where the player was running but it was soooo scuffed that it ended up just a foot race which Ronaldo locked onto first
The weakfoot works on a precentage EA said awhile back I believe...SO 5 star = 100% of the stats and subsequently reduce by 20% each star you remove so Adama would have been operating on 40% of those stats for that pass LOL.. Meaning about 35 Short passing, 22 Long passing and 29 curve for that particular pass IF he had a Deadeye . This game is a joke.
Best way to avoid these situations would be to cancel the assisted controls. I cannot understand how it is even possible, that pro players, who earn a lot of money for playing the game, are not forced to play with full manual controls. That is just ridiculous. I play with full manual controls for years now and it is still really hard to play successfully (you miss the goal a lot of times, make wrong passes etc). But it is ok, as long as the opponents are also playing with no assistance. The game feels so more self-controlled. Of course, you still have the momentum moments, but at least you know, when you are scoring, that you did it because of your own good aiming/passing etc.
The problem is, that you can just play like this with friends, because nobody (even the so called pro gamers) plays with full manual controls online...
In the real world player would also adjust their run in a situation like this, this wasn't a crazy adjustment. I completely see the point about the game assisting the pass too much and putting the defense into a lose lose situation.
This game make us run back like a headless chicken, and avoid making decisions to get more wins -_-
There was a headless chicken named Magic Mike, who survived decapitation, he lived for almoat 2 years, so being a headless chicken is something to be proud of..
Stallion - I am not half of the player you are with this game, but I've suffered nearly as much as you have from the overpowered attacking emphasis in '21. I play mostly online seasons, as I like to play with the club I support. The mechanics remain as frustrating there as they do in FUT, etc. I believe that EA has made a decision to nerf defending with this title AND boost attacking to make the game "more fun". I could see the planning meeting with EA's head developers asking, "What is fun about football.... Skill moves and scoring! Lets get back to that this year". I wish a better football simulation existed and I've thought about PES as an alternative, but I don't want to mess with downloading all the real player names/teams, etc. So I'm stuck with this game.
I feel like the ai assists bpl players in everything from passes to defending and even making some players faster or stronger than they should
Yes. That’s why I don’t track I just run back because in that situation you have no control. The game’s designed to have you on tracks. As long as there is auto assisted plus all other boosts it’s a sweat. But since most players have no skill and use pace stats it’s easy to defend once you let them tire there players out. If you survive the assisted high press, attack constant press assault
Stallion strong with the uploads
This whole discussion tangentially reflects some broader opinions I've had about FIFA as someone who started in '12. When I first saw this video I assumed that the Traore who made this pass was some sort of special card. Another player with a bunch of crazy stats inflated and able to play in almost any position effectively due to the combination of pace, physicality, etc. Hell I remember in another video where someone is playing Son at CM in a 451, and probably succeeds a lot by doing so. What happened to player variety? What variety exists when everyone is using players with Gullit Gang stats in each position? Back during my time (boomer) in fifa 12-14 I felt that while the game was geting more 'balanced' so to speak, it also became less and less fun, I blame a lot of this on the introduction of seasons as the main ultimate team mode. Single matches in fifa 12 rewarded creative team building, and encouraged the usage of silvers and even bronzes to an extent. This wasn't without its flaws. pace abuse was the main meme, finesse shots were pretty overtuned, but the game was still fun. You would still come up against hybrids, or teams that have a bunch of five star skillers. While overall gaming has generally followed this trend of extreme competitiveness, I feel that FIFA is where I felt this the most. I was and am still pretty good, but my reasons for playing fifa exist outside of determining how good I am or trying to win as much as possible. FIFA is an extension of my passion for soccer, and unfortunately EA cornering the market and following the trend of competitiveness has really ousted people like me from the game. How many of us used to browse FUTHEAD every day lol, finding weird or fun players from obscure leagues and building teams around them *for fun.* Playing against the AI in any fifa is categorically, unfun, to me, but I don't want to be forced to either follow the meta/sweat of the game or play at a disadvantage constantly. Why should I have to make that choice? Playing FIFA 12 with an emulator vs friends is currently bringing me a lot of joy, more joy than I think I would experience playing FUT 21, or subsequent FIFA titles. I cant speak on how it would be possible, but a return to the Arcadey style of FIA 12 where the game felt to me, as more of a celebration of world football, would see an improvement across the board. As Stallion has showed with multiple videos, clearly trying to balance gameplay is not EA's strong sort.
Lmfao that was Adamas left footed pass, jesus
Passing in FIFA 21 is strange... Though for the receiver, if you examine... He starts his run before the defender who makes almost 180 turn, then accelerates giving the already running striker an edge but...
What the hell? Just pass into any random space and the receiver follows accurately... Seriously FIFA, what the bloody hell?
Assist is only used to correct to a small degree because manual passing is hard in a lively and fast paced game(sorry, almost forgot that graveyard minimap)
Thanks for vid, stallion.
I mean all the passing assistance and mechanics you talk about are definitely in the game, I just don't think you can definitively say they didn't aim that pass there. That looks exactly like a scenario ive had many times, and I always play the ball into the space/behind the tracking player.
That being said even if they aimed that way the game most likely heavily assisted them to get that inch perfect weighting, overhitting that pass would be the main risk.
The makn point is it doesnt matter where he aimed that's not how the game worka
The video speaks from my heart
Good analysis as always bro.
This is always jarring when it goes my way also.
EA should give us sliders (0 to 100, 0 for manual, 100 for full assisted) for passing/shooting & power assistance instead of presets (manual, semi, assisted)
With this every player can find the sweet spot that works perfectly for them
Everyone will then pick 100 just to win games with this bad assistance
@@EhrenmannAndi Not everyone wants full assisted, and semi is also not enough for others, so it defini6depends on the player
@@eosobande you really wanna face a pro player on 100 pass assistance while you on semi? You tryharding for 1 goal on one end, and a random through ball attracts a run from nowhere that avoids your cbs and you concede that easily 😂
The funny thing is, if i use assisted, my through balls will always go everywhere except where i want them to go and eventually being intercepted or sending my runnen to the corner flag. So i use semi. BUT now, the opponent uses assisted... xavi and iniesta combined posses his saint maximin
I just got ahafted by bernando silver NIF right foot finesse when i covered his left foot. Against alisson, and he was outside the box. Amazing
the guy didnt trigger the run because the forwards arm was not up. the passing is a joke in this game
Yea I agree if u mark passes or make good passes the game doesn’t like that and mess’s it up but a player that makes horrible passes gets rewarded with a better pass then what they had it annoys me that skill isn’t that much of a factor when you can tackle a player 10 times and intercept but they still keep it it’s ridiculous thanks for shedding some light on this ea need to fix their shit
Another supporting evidence to show that Stallion's opponent's intention was to pass btwn the 2 defenders was the ball roll to change the angle narrower, as without the ball roll the bottom defender would have a better chance of intercepting the pass
facts on facts on facts again from Stallion.
Adama the magician! 😂😂 Nice video.
Thanks man!
Talks for 10 minutes about a passing problem in the game. Can we do a 24h stream on all the problems or is that even enough?
not enough time, tag team 48 hour stream, maybe
Nice video.
I don't support any of those arguments. The argument I actually could support, from the AI perspective, is that you have Varane's hips square to Traore, and in real life, were you to pass a ball in that fashion, Varane is totally off balance to handle that pass. Rodrigo's momentum continues forward while Varane has to turn 180, and so putting the ball squarely behind Varane is actually not a terrible choice given Rodrigo's movement. Varane turns his hips, Rodrigo bumps up past him, and Rodrigo has the momentum to get there in reality. Your positioning and most importantly, your balance and squaring up your hips is what makes it sensible that pass could actually be picked. I don't think Traore should be able to deliver that pass so readily, but I will say GIVEN the pass being correctly handled, the defending and physical movement does invite that situation if Varane is knocked off balance by Rodrigo.
The main thing for me is how the run changes basically at the exact moment the pass is played, as if Rodrigo telepathically knows that the pass is going to be played to the opposite direction of his run and also knows the exact timing of the pass. This makes no sense given real football logic. It would have to be an extreme coincidence for something like this to happen in a real game but it's a norm in FIFA.
@@Missedbyawhisker In a real game you'd assume it was something sorted on the training ground between the players, in FIFA it makes little sense. I can agree with that part of the assessment. The player does immediately take control of Rodrigo and begin directing him on that direction change.
If you watch it again it looks like varane is initiating a shoulder to shoulder but then breaks that to make a failed interception attempt. Whether that was intentional or computer AI i dont know, but im positive that's why the defender doesn't take the ball and hold off the attacker
Love the content! Good work
I don’t know if anyone agree with me but it shows that varan made a tackle before the ball go through thats why he couldn’t get enough speed to track the player. Idk if that’s ai tackle or u did the tackle by mistake.
Yeah it sure looks that way. He makes a valid point but he doesn't address how he could have defended it better. Holding Lt would have seen his defender hold off the striker and take the ball. I know bullshit happens but it does in real life. It's impossible to make a game that pleases everyone
8:21 i asked myself that question on day 1 of the game.I noticed very early that i was being punished for manually defending.I'm glad i
didn't buy fifa this year.
The star weekfoot in the game does not alter the stats, it is a multiplayer from 0 to 1 that alter the probability of the pass/shot itself. For example last year, 4 stars multiplayer was 0.75, that means that there is 75% chance that the pass you made with the weekfoot will work as if it would have been made with the strong foot. In the case of your clip with Adama 2 stars would mean 0.25, so no comment...
Companies are in business to make money.
Looks like you need more Paul Walker at CB.
Love the vids! Also first.
cheers
Tbh, that pass by adama is nothing unusual much really. If I was Adama, giving direct pass into a gap where close left and right of the gap where two defenders guarding like you suggested would be stupid. Risk of interception. But yeah the pass is too guided. The attacking mechanism became way too OP for defender in game to defend. But that technique do happened irl. Also, the turning or stopping animation is ridiculous. Way too sudden. You have a decent point on the passing, just a bit trying to contradict a real life technique. But one thing I like about FIFA21 is the defender vs attacker speed adjustment didn't really exist anymore. In the old titles, even if you're using Salah to run for through pass against Ramos, Ramos probably be able to catch you. Maybe you should play full manual or at least semi auto feature. Full auto are meant to either help you in ridiculous way, or to fuck you up in ridiculous way
If they patch this and actually those overpowerd trough balls and defenders actually stick there foot out and goalkeepers not making space for attackers to score you wil see how many people wil stop playing because they realise they have no skill and the game was helping them al these years
The only people who won’t agree with this mess are those who benefit from this crap. That pass should have never gone through but this fifa like 19 and 20 were created to help out noobs with no skills. It’s simple
2 star weak foot passing right there hahah
adama be like : "xavi who?"
Good vicdeo
And people put money in this game to get better cards when, in fact, does not even matter... Because the game has the last word, not you, not your cards...
@Nemesis 86 the game is for sure a pay to win but you do not necessarily win just because you have better players... Everyone that played FIFA long enough already raged losing a game against a worst team and player... But because the AI decides what will happen next, your +10M squad is worthless in that scenario...
You forgot the pass was made by a 2 star weak foot player with less than 80 long passing
Here before a million likes
The counter argument u made to the first point is exactly why you pass to the wrong player. It never goes where u aim it to go, clearly, and the game interpreted that u want to pass to someone else, when u clearly were not aiming there. That might honestly be the most infuriating part of the game
The only reason this worked was because it was the 45th minute.. And this always happens in the 45th minute 🙄
This story always happen. Bro i have no idea how adama can pass or bang shots with his left like that. What's the diffrence between a master passer and a player with 66 passing stats?
So why should we buy cruyff when 79 rated adama can do all his speciality with no failure?
Agree with this 100%
Greetings
I think all ground passes are affected by the short pass stat, regardless of the distance of the pass. Notwithstanding this and even the probable deadeye style, the passing system in FIFA is garbage and it is not improving at all as years go by. Absolute tragedy.
Italian. I feel your last comment on Adama's passing should be enough to show how f***ed up the Fifa system is. Shouldn't matter on the runs if the passer has a 70 passing, passes with left foot while being a right-footed 2* weak foot.
What's the music called that plays in the beginning and the end?
This is the equivalent of Call of Duty forcing you to run into a shower of bullets.
Quality videos bro, but unfortunately EA is too busy designing cute kits, tifos, fireworks, confetti and wacky waving inflatable tubes for 12 year olds.
pls dont block me, but I have one argument 🥸 what if the pass went that way bc it was adams left foot so he missed where he wanted to pass the the mistake was also its blessing 🤓 get it?
Fifa tried giving us what we wanted with Fifa 16 (perfect amount of pass assistance), but all the kids called it the worst fifa. Fifa will always be a scum game, play something else.
That's why I stopped playing the game I felt that I win games that I dont deserve and lose for bullshit animations that my opponent doesn't deserve alot of my passes and my opponents were assisted my skill and the view of the game was irrelevant and meta based which burned the game for me ... even if I dont get messi and Ronaldo I would be happy with the game if my way of play is shown as I like it without mentioning the whole micro transactions wasteland
It’s only been 1 month 😐
@@No-tt4og this problem was enforced since fifa 18 or at least that how I saw it
Imagine man, having to have to deal with this kind of bullshit mechanic ever since FIFA 17, only back then add fucking nutmegs to the mix just to make your on point defending even MORE pointless. The only saving grace for the past is that these kinds of through balls are somewhat of a new thing, however it explains how passing assistance has worked in every other facet of the game, ever since they released FIFA 17.
The truth is, whats the point of defending, whats the point of reading the game, and analyzing the clues the game gives you, when how the game works is that when you go one way as a defender - reading the game and the movement of your opponent, the game will decide that the opponent pass goes the other way after the person holding the controller has made an error, all thanks to how assistance works? Like I've said many, many, many times before, and for several years running now - passing in this game frequently rewards bad decisions and punish good decisions. Its just bullshit. And this applies to so many facets and various situations of the game.
And thats just one of its major flaws, making this game into casual garbage, made for kids so that they enjoy it and spend money. Because if they would be punished for their mistakes on a regular basis, they would lose interest quicker. I mean, who has time to learn how to actually play a game properly? According to EA, apparently no one.
The thing that also hits home to me is when you answer the question "Whats the point of a good passer then?". Thats been my point with FUT the last half a decade. However, how I would say it is "what is the point of playing when the game does this? where's the skill gap when assistance works this way?".
The answer is its ruined. Its casual, assisted, broken, pay 2 win garbage.
Competitive FIFA? Hah. Give me a fucking break! Its a joke! Its all designed to be an advert to maximize profit on its braindead customers.
Someone needs to shove this video into EA's face, unfortunately - they will never change because this is where the money is at.
If it wasnt for the fact that you are trying to make a career on this shit, I'd say just give it up. I've been trying to argue these things for the last 5 years, and all that's done is the game has just gotten even worse...
But with that said....... keep up the good work! I hope this video gets millions of view...... but to get that you have to make pack opening reaction videos like the rest of the game destroyers. Lol.... FML
Amen.
So basically turn on assisted through passes
Game is dead, I can't stand this game anymore, it's not skill anymore so why do we play a game that punishes skill.... and the noobs I play are that thick that they actually think they have won the game without any AI aid even though stats are about 60% possession and 12 shots vs their 40% and 3 shots.... just infuriating
EA its'IN the game...
This is creepy
love when my defender do three runs around stadium before locked to ball fook this you can t simply touch ball before he touch him ..easy
Hey stallion ! Don't worry about these EA fan boys . They'll be breaking controllers sooner rather then later
what if he would have tracked back in a straight line? how would the pass have been played then?
or would not have pressed circle in the mid of the run? Dont get me wrong i love the vids i am just curios
8:17
The passing and defence stats don't matter in this game, same as chem styles. If players played to their stats in this game, maybe it wouldn't be this bad. I use Firmino and G.Jesus as CBs and they are incredible!!!!!
You are right about all the passing things but if you’re wondering why he got passed your CB after the bs pass is because you can tell u clicked B to tackle and didn’t reach so right there the striker beat u on the run but yes the pass things is true it’s all rigged
This is why i retired from fifa and why i stopped playing assisted passing. I dunno where the fun in playing assisted passing. You score unbelievable long shot? Nope, the assist did that, not you lol.
I think you are wrong. The default setting for thru ball is semi assisted. If he had it on assisted the pass would have gone where you tracked but you can force a thru ball on the other side by aiming the stick that direction. I dont say he actually wanted to pass there but the game does what you tell if to do, most of the times. So yeah, he decided the trajectory. Go in a game and try it yourself, i was frustrated by this myself and it actually does matter where you aim for a thru ball
Dont get me wrong, i do agree with you that the game needs fixing at passes, especially the assisted pass where you cut the passing lane and the AI decides to pass it 1 meter sideways so it can reach. Thats bullshit and it promotes getting away with mistakes, but in this specific case you cant totally agree with you.
Nah, default setting is assisted. Idk what version of the game you have
If you want the game to be good, everyone needs to stop buying their product. You would see major fixes Within a calendar year. Buy pes and download the option file on ps5 or get mods for pc for a year. I have not bought madden, fifa,nba live, in the last 4 years. I refuse to buy their garbage. Only game I buy is nhl and only because they stopped making nhl 2k in 2010. Or I would buying 2k. Stop feeding the beast. Nobody would work harder if they got paid either way.
Dude I heard this so many times and nobody will do that or boycott. This argument is dumb. EA got enough money and people will buy their game because it’s Fifa and ppl not buying they products will not work 😂. Gotta have the whole country of the U.S to even start that 😂
You could've stopped that pass in the first clip with a manual slide tackle, didn't watch the rest. Adapt to the new mechanics instead of crying.
Varane wasn’t properly positioned for a slide tackle , if he did go for the tackle it will be from behind so a foul will be called and he maybe sent off
Hey stalion don’t you think this is DDA? I believe in it
Yeah it is, look at the clock ;)
It's 1 minute before half time of course your player is going to get gimped.
You shouldve pressed L2 and bodied the attacker with Varane
