All that said, the game is pretty fun when matched with a player of even skill. I've had a lot of good games and have been enjoying it more than last year. I think it helps too that I'm not grinding and making it a chore on myself.
Messed with that, but maybe just haven't found the right combo. It is also just some of the games, wouldn't surprise me if there was some built in mechanic to fuck around with that.
I still suck at this game though. I'm better at scoring, but D still sucks. And so many times my defense is woefully out of position leaving loads of space and I can't figure out why. They like to stand and watch. All are on 10 chem.
I'm pretty crap at defending so far. I feel like the AI's defensive CBs smarts are pretty bad as my guys routinely stand there and watch players run by and lose their shape.
Won a game, have 1 more placement match since two got disconnected and didn't get counted. I took some time and put together a cheap German League 1 squad.
