EA SPORTS FC25 OS Community Sliders

[CR1978]

Going off my previous 2 posts about world class and legendary difficulty, does anyone have any ideas on what specific things to tweak slightly based on my feedback?

Unfortunately I'm not the most technical on all this which is why I don't post videos etc. I can tell obvious things like pass speed etc but not the inner workings of each thing.

Legendary feels like it's almost right if I wasn't spending 80 minutes chasing the other team around and watching them pass back repeatedly because they can't break me down but I can't get on the damn ball either. World Class though I'm running rings around every opponent. It's either way too much space or literally none when switching between the difficulties.

Is there any way to tweak legendary down just a tad in order to get a bit more chance on the ball or space without going too far?

The frustration is there's a really great game under there somewhere, and I found it on v2 sliders until EA dropped the last update. I can tell it's there somewhere using v4 sliders on this version but I'm still stuck between too easy or too hard. Game speed generally is finally realistic again at least.

You could increase user accell to 51 to start. Raising pass error to like 65 could help make them think more. Try inputting falkens AI sliders a few posts above on legendary and see how that feels.

Has anybody got an idea on how to deal with teams using a deep defensive line?

These games are the worst, defenders are literally standing around on the penalty spot and let you shoot from the edge of the box. No matter what I tried with sliders or CPU behavior, this thing seems unfixable (unless you use a second controller and edit the opponents team tactics before every game).

I came in to say the same thing. Using the latest sliders and, while things have improved, there's still the issue (for me at least) underneath that the AI doesn't seem to know how to attack.

I'm playing in the SPFL (on Legendary) and I've got a formation and tactics which suit my players perfectly. Playing against Celtic or Rangers the right amount of challenge is there, because they attack and they're effective.

Every other team in the league gets to the half way line in possession, then passes back to the centre-halves before doing the same thing again, over and over again. I score most of my goals high-pressing until they make a mistake, burst through and score one-on-one.

No teams play long balls, no-one favours wing play, no-one breaks me down. It is BORING. There must be some way to adjust the sim settings/AI sliders so that they actually attempt to play football.

does anyone know if turning on competitor mode will make the CPU defence more aggressive and less passive?

Unfortunately it's a very weak league outside of rangers and Celtic it can be tough to get proper challenge ,last year i played a Scottish league career and won a game 10-0 like I'm far from being that good at the game not at all ,but my best guess would be add some build up speed and some shot frequency might suit more a Scottish league type football ,or as last solution wich could be good is a second controller and make lower team play more like a kick rush style long ball or counter style ,it's unfortunate to have to kinda decide how the team we're facing will play but is still more realistic then having Livingston or like Kilmarnock playing prime Barca 2009 or Man City possession style wich or not at all their level in real life

In regard to previous postings I'd say best to increase CPU build up speed? I'm not finding that in bundesliga.2 career mode which makes me think it's a AI team set up? 10 out of the 12 Scottish teams are hardly of the adventurous type..

Fair(ish) comments, but Scottish teams don't play each other in unadventurous ways, no matter that they might park the bus against Celtic and Rangers (although even that is changing - Sky Sports has Aberdeen play Rangers tomorrow night which will be a good, open game).

And parking the bus is all well and good where a team might be trying to sneak a draw or a counter against a superior team, but most teams are well matched in Scotland; 10 of the 12 are perfectly able to take points off each other, even give each other doings.

I will follow the advice of changing CPU sliders, though. This year at least we have the capability to do this, especially where there seems to be a fix for long term issues like the aggressiveness of challenges, fouls etc.
