Handballs Aren't In The Game

[MikeGiani]

Have played 20 or so games and have had a bunch of instance where a handball should have been called and wasn't.

This definitely has to be patched.

Handballs are turned off by default for whatever reason. Go into settings and you'll see a option for handball fouls, it will be off. You can change it.

I have it turned on. It just doesn't work like it's supposed to.

You don't want to turn that feature on :-)

Re: Handballs Aren't In The Game

I like how its working this year. Handballs last year were called as penalties way too often. I haven't seen one yet with it fully on this year. But I've only played 15 or so games. Last year there was a handball penalty in every game.

Re: Handballs Aren't In The Game

Handballs are like Goal Line Tech, it just never happens. I've seen maybe 1 or 2 handballs in 50 odd matches.

Granted, they did occur randomly way to often in '14, resulting in dumb PKs.....but they practically never occur in '15. Good balance there EA.

ummm...I have seen goal line tech about 4 times so far, in fact, my last game I went down 2-0 against New Castle. 2 minutes later goal line tech disallowed the goal. I haven't played FIFA in years. I didn't even know it could do that :-)

Well apparently it's just broken on my game.

I'm at the point where I'm considering deleting all presence of FIFA'15 from my xb1 (demo, early release/full game) and reinstalling, because after playing upwards of 20-30 prem matches & not seeing a single instance of GLT something has to be broken.

I haven't seen it yet either. Nor have I seen one handball, and I'm about 20 matches into my career.

Re: Handballs Aren't In The Game

Not sure how often goal line tech actually comes into play in real life though. Probably more than in FIFA I suspect, but not sure if it's all that much more. I could be not remembering correctly but in the entire world cup there were only a few instances of it coming into play from what I recall out of 60 some games.

Re: Handballs Aren't In The Game

I've played 7 matches today and there was a GLT decision in 3 of them. That's way too much. Do you guys play at least on semi shooting? Otherwise you won't see much variation in shooting.

I'm all manual. I just haven't really had goals that haven't blatantly gone in the net up to this point.

Re: Handballs Aren't In The Game

Handballs are definitely broken. I've seen blatant ones that aren't called with the option turned on. Even more annoying is that the players who knock a ball out with their hands for a corner get congratulated by their teammates for making a good play.

I've seen the goal line technology at least 5 times. Actually saw it twice yesterday. Haven't seen 1 handball.

It has been used once in the BPL this year from my knowledge. They have played 6 Gameweeks, so thats 60 games in total. It doesn't happen all that often.
