      Not sure why these guys are telling us to stop calling out the creators who are in EA's pocket. If they support EA greed for their own agenda they are no better than EA. So if I want to have my own opinion about these EA shrill sellouts, respect your viewers rights to have an opinion too. Otherwise you are shutting alternate opinions out and nothing gets done. The only way we move forward is to be honest and call a spade a spade.

    I’m 35. I’ve been playing FIFA since FIFA ‘97. Had a small Hiatus in winning eleven now (PES) in high school circa 03-07. Came back to Fifa in college in ‘07 and bought a ps4 just to play with R9 in Fifa’ 11 with Corinthians. Between the tornado mess in FIFA ‘19 and EAFC 24 these two installments have been an absolute embarrassment. Started getting into ultimate team in Fifa ‘17 because of weekend league and legends. I am now contemplating buying a PC just to use icons and hero’s because I want to play with them. I have to resort to buying a pc and playing career mode just to make this happen. Do nba2k players need to do this to play with Kobe and Shaq??!! The last fifa I played thoroughly was FIFA ‘22 and had fun because it was attainable to get r9 and Zidane. Went back to school to get my masters, so haven’t had the time to play the last two years as much as I wanted since I was so busy. Can’t believe the downfall of FIFA. We all saw this coming and now I am resorting to just play career mode and buying a PC. It’s unplayable. Just to get a fix I’ve been playing seasons online because i don’t want to spend the time or money to play with good players/icons.

      I actually disagree. It’s super easy to get tons of low rated fodder and along the way packing some usable promo cards. There’s exchanges for a reason and that’s due to excessive cards being granted. You can take time off and pack a useable card that’s just as good or even worse than last few promo cards. The game is very easy for casuals to get into competitive modes but hard enough to create the top 1%

      This exactly and it seems like maybe these guys don't even agree with that last one. The best players should get better rewards, that's fine. But they make it sound like the best guys are the only ones that should get good cards and I couldn't disagree more. I'm ok but not great at the game. If I put 100 hours in I should still be within a stones throw of the top guys team wise because otherwise why should I even play. If all the good cards only go to the best players who are already better than 99% of people then how in tf is anyone else even supposed to have a chance when playing them.

    Scripting/momentum call it what you will. It has to go! It's SO frustrating being in the lead for most of the match, but then in the last ten minutes your players can't control the ball, dribble or make a pass, so you're just waiting for the opponent to equalise through a 30 yard shot with their weak foot. You can see it coming every time. Do not tell me scripting/momentum is not a thing. It's disgusting. No skill gap anymore.

    The biggest thing in the gameplay is that people depend solely on their AI to tackle and make interceptions. If you try controlling all your players it’s worse. The game forces you to stop switching players and trust that the AI will do their thing. And when players run down the wing, there is just this feeling that if you miss the tackle with your Full Back, you will get scored on. IT’S RIDICULOUS

    Nick - I think talking about pack weight and cosmetics is a completely different conversation. It doesn't matter what EA does unless the gameplay is there. If you get Mbappe TOTS - it doesn't matter b/c gameplay is shit. Just focus on 5-10 gameplay fixes and direct communication with EA. Make a short, concise list. Every content creator is delivering 10-20 minute responses with what they want to do, and while it is better than remaining silent, it is not going to take this anywhere. Get every creator who wants to boycott EA to post the list of 5-10 requests, and say they will not do x,y, and z until the conditions are met. You have to keep it clear, concise, and consistent to get this to work amongst all participating creators. You need to make a post about the list, and get the community to provide feedback until you get a finalized product. Get community feedback to refine the list. Get everyone involved.

      The majority of players aren't becoming outdated every 2 weeks. I bought Thunderstruck Loftus Cheek back in November and he's still decent enough to this day. Most of the cards from the Future Stars promo are still viable. The problem is just because a card doesn't have 5 star skills or weak foot and doesn't have completely maxed out stats you people think they are outdated. A midfielder can have 83+ all stats and people will call it mid just because it doesn't have 90+ pace and may lack one or two playstyles lmao.

Whoever left got the loss, the other just played all this time for NOTHING. That's easy to fix. In Clubs, this doesn't happen, in normal seasons, this doesn't happen. So why does it happen in UT? Another one, draws in rivals. What's the point? Just make it go straight to pens, I'd rather loose the game than draw the game. At least there's an outcome to this game, we didn't play for 15 minutes for nothing. Pens are 50/50, you will win and loose 50% of the time.

I then gave a ticket to EA saying (in short) "i deserve the ban for being toxic I don't want anything to do with that, if he is abusing the system he deserves a ban too, this is toxic and shouldn't be acceptable" ... But all EA replied to me is "we think the action taken towards your ban is justified and we do not have any intention to change that" ... They didn't address anything I actually wanted to be done. I haven't been playing since then ... It's been a month or more.

    EA's main goal for this series is to implement the most abusive, dark-pattern predatory microtransaction elements to make enough revenue every year to satisfy shareholders. Just recently EA flew out almost every creator for the small Need For Speed community to visit Criterion and help them develop the next game. They have the systems in place, there's no reason or excuse not to do the same for the football releases, but they know that creating a fun experience directly contradicts their goals. They. Do. Not.

    Hey Nick great video as always, and again I'm leaving another comment just because again I love supporting your content I've been a viewer for the years you've been doing this even though I stopped playing FIFA years ago I love how passionate you are about this game and the fact that you're one of the few creators is actually got the balls to call out yay for what they've been doing for all these years and also the ball to call out the community cuz one thing that does disappoint me about the FIFA community is that they never actually stand up or take action and that's been the case for like a decade now because honestly the last good FIFA was probably FIFA 14 if we are being honest and unfortunately the community is never unified and we see for example recently with what happened with helldivers too for example when Sony announced the whole PSN account linking for PC players we saw the action that the PC players were able to take and they basically went and massed down forwarded the game and all sorts of things and they just started a whole campaign online and they forced Sony to basically backtrack on that decision with regards to hell divers too now Sony still going to have that requirement for multiplayer games going forward on PC like they're going to do it for the ghost of sushima Legends mode or whatever but not for the single player but for helldivers too that's the only multiplayer game that's actually not going to have that requirement because the community stood up and they made their voices hurt now for FIFA unfortunately I think there's always going to be a divide because like you guys mentioned a lot of content creators rely on this for their income right so for one they can't necessarily boycott the game because again that's their livelihood and then number two there's also a section of people because of how big the FIFA community is there's all social people who just don't care cuz again they're rich enough they they don't really care like opening packs whether it's the athletes or just like Rich folks and in general right they don't really care about all this other nonsense so they don't care cuz they're just going to put hundreds and hundreds of dollars into the packs and whatever and they're going to feed the beast in that case but for everyone else like every other regular person who just wants to enjoy a good football game feeding the whole packs and promos and all the sudden nonsense that EA has turned the game into just never ends well for us because then they're never going to prioritize the gameplay and and that's just the simplest things are going to go right so because the the majority of players are never willing to actually stand up and take action I think there's always going to be this perpetual limbo in the FIFA community where people are going to constantly complain about the gameplay and how EA does bad but then like you guys mentioned in the example at 6:00 or whatever they're still going to go and open promo packs and what not and still feed the money right so for free as long as their pockets are full they're not going to care right now the only thing that's ever going to make them sit up and take notice is when you hurt their pockets and unfortunately this community just never has a big enough voice so I do appreciate what you guys are doing and I appreciate that you're actually bringing attention to this and I hope you guys keep up the good fight cuz again as long as you do something then you guys can at least say okay we tried we did something we tried to help the community even if the community rejects that help keep up the great work.

    1. Fix the servers - make the players responsive to what you actually press on your controller. Tone down animations and random events.

    3. Tone down any code for script and SBMM. We get it, it’s here to stay, but don’t make it so aggressive or obvious.
    4. Stop with the BS megapacks that cost 50+ dollars. Don’t ever have a day of content where store packs are content. We’d rather have no content.
    5. Give much much much more detailed and truthful probabilities for packs.
    6. Reward the grinders. If someone goes 20-0 in champs, make the rewards worth it. If you want us to play BS modes for 20 full games, make sure the reward isn’t always the same discard promo card.
    7. Be more active. If you have Mbappe or VVD that has been extinct on the market for a week, go press that button to increase their prince range.

    Love the idea of hosting a weekly hour discussion with a couple of creators and a guest from ‘the other side of the fence’ to help construct a dialogue with EA Sports. But you’ll never get an EA dev on. They’ll be restricted by NDA’s and their job will be at risk.
    However, 1,500+ jobs have been lost from the games industry in the last year or two so there may well be many unemployed devs willing to join in these discussions to explain the dev angle. There will be games journalists that are probably willing to discuss what they’d been told from anonymous sources. There should be esport pros that can share their thoughts. There are probably many with insider knowledge that would be happy to help construct a conversation because it may very well save jobs in the future.
    But ultimately it’s hosting a discussion that will help those that matter listen. It needs to be balanced and consider all the perspectives. It can’t be all rage all the time because it’s such an easy argument for the money makers to ignore. “Look at how angry they are and look at how much money we make. They. Don’t. Matter.” You can’t fuel that easy out.

In the members’ streams vote for issues that the streamer can talk about in future meetings.

    This is what I would do. I'm not a Fifa content creator, but I am a creator that plays fifa since 20 years+. I would stop giving special cards and return to the special boost to any player you whant. Let me explain. You play weekend league and if you get rank 1, you get an evolution to any player you want with small boost in stats you choose. Also, I would do that player raitings are always live based on their current performance every month, that way a 90+ could get down, and a 83 could eventually go to a 90+. That way you would be changing squads based on fandom and live results.
    Also, yo could train players in your squad, like in carrer mode. Now, for EA to still make money, I will give store packs with special cards or special evolutions with more stats, in the end, you pay for save time. But it the end, people could get eventually there without spending money. Ofc every evolution or stats boost resets every month, and every promo will bring diferent stats boosts, so it must be controlled. And finally, I will add that if your oponnent disconnects from the match, you get the win. That would be my ideas to try to make the game better, more fun, competitive, and profitable for EA. Cheers nick.

    Giving much better rewards for rank 1 to 3 players just strenghtens the pay to win aspect of the game.
    The rewards have to be better all around plus we need to do something with our duplicates.
    And when we're at it, drop the Rivals/Squad Battles BS where we just get rewards on specific days.
    In the old season system you got your rewards after every season (10 games).
    Therefore, there was less FOMO and you could play the game on your own schedule. But you could grind more rewards, so this was just a way to reduce the packs, so you go to the store for more.
