EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

This game is absolutely crap. Sorry, but it just is. Every day it plays completely differently - each time I switch my Xbox on and load up FC, it’s like a lottery as to whether or not the game will feel enjoyable. About a week ago the gameplay felt great; the players had a good weight to them and movement animations had a realistic pace, passing felt nice and everything was pretty smooth. Fast forward to the past couple of days and everything is just horrible - the classic Fifa skating is back and worse than ever, the movement animations of the players are all over the place - weirdly fast and inconsistent, the ball movement on passes looks and feels horrendous, everything is just completely abnormal.

Yes, I’ve tried restarting the game/my console, connecting/disconnecting to the EA servers, checked all settings and sliders are identical and nothing has randomly changed. I’m playing on Legendary V9, default pace. The match I literally just played was one of the worst I can ever remember on an EA game.

I don’t remember this happening on Fifa 23, it’s definitely an issue specific to FC24. I don’t know whether it’s something to do with the sliders - i.e. if playing with everything set to the default 50, it’s at least a consistently bad game. I’m just praying to God that come September something has changed when FC25 is released. Ironically I can deal with the game being bad/buggy, as long as it’s consistently so - this constant flip-flopping between the game feeling great and awful is mind numbing. Hats off to those of you that are still able to play this and actually enjoy it, because you are absolutely in the minority.

This is similar to what I experience unfortunately. I had some of this in 23 as well, but not to the degree I see in 24. As you note - consistent issues are easier to deal with, but the randomness is very frustrating. Part of me thinks that the code has a hard time actually working with slider adjustments and it leads to it basically breaking after a random number of matches - but as not everyone has this issue, it can't be that simple.

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

Hi all. I need some help. I bought the game and started a career with Blackpool and I am using the sliders on ultimate. I feel like the game is too easy, like I can pass the ball around like prime barca, retain possession too easy when attacking, and dribbling is too good.

Is legendary harder? Should I change to slow speed? I don’t really want to go full manual controls, but it could be an option. I just want to feel like it’s much more of a challenge. I want the feeling like I have to lock in for the 90 minutes otherwise I should lose. Appreciate any advice, thanks!

I agree. They have broken CM and it disappoints and rritates me to no end. They have made it more frustrating than fun.

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

i play ultimate cpu difficulty and i really do feel the cutbacks against them have improved, they mark better in the box.

i also feel they have made it more difficult overall.

i took a bit of a break but it stood our for me when i started playing again, not too sure if increasing the marking from 50 to 51 caused that or if ea did that themselves, anyone have any thoughts on that?

Ever since they adjusted the AI this has become by far the most frustrating and least enjoyable FIFA/EAFC or whatever game they've made. It's not even consistent half-to-half but you can certainly feel it the moment the game decides to shift the balance for or against you. It's not fun. It doesn't add anything dynamic to the game, it just makes it infuriating to play. I don't know what the solution is to it at all other than going back to FIFA 23 or something. I don't want to feel like my matches are being hijacked by whatever whims the game itself has. If the CPU is going to beat me I want it to feel earned and vice versa.

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

Yeah the game is inconsistent this year. Sometimes it feels fine then the next game the players can't control the ball, and this is on both sides. Everyone feels like they are running in mud.

I've tried a few more games - but in kick off mode, so it may not be the most relevant. Just WC with full manual controls. the ball control is very random and it really bounces off players in a mess of a way. What I find more unusual though is that the AI is using agile dribbling and knock ons like crazy, mid fielders are knocking the ball forward after almost juggling the pass each time they receive it. This is also happening with slow/poor dribbling CBs etc.

I'm seeing the AI use skill moves pretty aggressively when they're down 2 goals, but not before that. The collisions seem to be a bit of a mess with players running into each other and falling over, and the past couple matches have had multiple red cards from near constant slide tackling. I've also seen a return of really bad keeper animations (them jumping forward and diagonally to parry shots at unnatural speeds, then parrying up in the air and then catching it again, etc). I've also seen a return to tackling by osmosis by the AI. They've always done the run into your player and come away with the ball, but it seems to be worse now. I'm curious if there was more done in one of the recent updates than it seemed. Maybe whatever they implemented to create greater game to game variability has overshot the mark....

A few title updates back they put in an update to try to address the cutback coverage by the AI defenders. I think it has improved. Not great, but better than it was. My guess is if you haven't played in a while it was that patch more than the marking between 50 and 51.

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

I gave up and deleted the game. Maybe I'll try again when I'm bored and forget how bad the gameplay was. The last game was ridiculous. I had it on slow and the animations were faster than squad battles. I was playing 3rd level teams in the Bundesliga and once I got up 2 goals the game play sped up,, constant AI skill moves, glitching through my players, multiple nutmegs, overhead bicycle kicks, my goalie jumped out of the box to make a save (about 12 yards forward) at a crazy speed, knocking the ball in the air for their player to fly in and make the header to score. 12 tackles went back to their players. It was comical so I just took cards and two footed everyone - each ball still rocketed back to their attacker. I don't believe in overall match scripting...but the RNG is heavily manipulated when the game decides to increase the challenge. The dynamic difficulty adjustments (or whatever they want to call it) is out of hand. If I wanted to play on ultimate with competitor mode on - I'd have selected it. It's ridiculous the game changes things so drastically. It's crazy that squad battles was more enjoyable than those matches. And no one likes squad battles.

nice, thanks for letting me know, that makes sense then!

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

So guys, does anyone have suggestions on what to tweak on old gen with respect to the original os sliders?

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

I’m on PS4 and input the sliders as given in the OP. Then I alter them based on:

how quickly ground passes get from a to b
Whether or not players feel too heavy or light while sprinting
How fast shots are
Goalkeeper ability to react, and handle the ball

The length, width etc sliders I pretty much stick with. The injury sliders I still constantly change. Im convinced player stamina at time of the tackle + the weight and strength of players are big factors. So I’m pretty happy with it being a bit random. The consistency of the injury type is all that annoys me.

I’ll post what I use later. I’m a casual player who only plays career mode on world class verging on legendary.

Re: EA SPORTS FC 24 OS Community Sliders

I can't play Legendary anymore. I was Barcelona playing a mix of my first team and reserves against Villareal B and their 65 rated GK was stopping shot after shot after shot, all while my 80 rated keeper let a near post goal in and a shot right at him in. The game 100% boosts the computer unrealistically on legendary. I give up.
