Re: Official word on the patch...
my patience is wearing thin with fifa 14. i did a kickoff match between southampton and west ham, where i was southampton. west ham starts off with the ball and lofts a long ball to carroll for a goal 5 mins into the game. i restarted the match with some small adjustments to see what happens and the same exact thing happens. so, i restart again and make a ton of adjustments, but to no avail as west ham again score within the first 10 minutes of the game. it's like it is programmed to score, no matter what.
after, i played a kickoff match between swansea and southampton, i was swansea. in the box on my end, ashley williams and rickie lambert just run into each other (neither had the ball) and lambert is awarded the penalty. just for running into each other! minutes later, i had bony 1 v 1 with boruc and out of nowhere lovren undercuts bony's legs from under him in the box and no penalty. also, i had dyer (92 pace) with space along the wing and wanyama (75 pace) catches up to him and takes the ball. there was no one in sight and i feel like dyer would have still been able to outrun him with the edge he had and crossed the ball in. finally, i had hernandez (my CPU) making a run to the net and i gave him a lead pass where he easily would have had a scoring chance, but he stopped running when i made the pass. why?! it's really frustrating.
last story, still a kickoff match. i was shakhtar and was taking on tottenham. i was dominating the whole match and i hit the post/crossbar 3 times, but couldn't put one in. around the 70th minute i was one on one along the wing trying to defend lamela. there were two of my defenders 10-15 yards behind me. lamela makes one dribble move to get by me, so i figure i have two defenders for cover. nope. my two defenders who were CPU, where also duped by lamela's dribble move to make for an easy 2 on 1 situation for tottenham. which of course ended up being a goal. i don't understand how they fell for the move when they were pretty far away. they should have easily held their ground.
i'm starting to believe the sentiment that some people on here have mentioned that the CPU is faster than you. i play kickoff matches against the CPU so i can get a feel/the hang of the game before i start a career but i have just come away mad. it feels so cheap. never had this problem in past fifa's. fifa 14 just feels different. i hope the patch helps, but i'm not holding my breath.
*sorry for the long post, just had to vent a little and share my experiences.
