Anyone else think the game got ruined with this first patch? I was LOVING the game out of the box. Now I'm over here trying to decide if I want to remove the first patch and just play career mode, or keep it so I can play online with friends... really disappointed over here

Re: First Patch
Same here...
Loved the game, now it feels like FIFA 17 after the patches made FIFA 17 totally boring...
**** EA. I'm so done with them! -
Re: First Patch
The good news for those on PC is, if you saved backup versions of the game at various patch iteration you can use cr**ks that are already available on the net to launch whatever the version of the game you prefer.Comment

Re: First Patch
the first release game wasn't perfect either, the patches improved some areas and weakened other areas.
there is surely a difference between offline and online gameplay (only can comment on offline so far). offline the pace is a tad faster, but the op-longshots and gk are improved and a bit more post/crossbar-shots from the cpu now. That's what i felt gameplaywise from release to current patch.
but the matches still make fun, nonetheless. the raised speed makes it more like a 'fifa 17 2.0' imo. i think, for more speed fifa needed more animations for player-body-movement to make it look more realistic, thats why slow feels better.Comment

Re: First Patch
I never played 17 as I came from 16. I found the pk's and corner kicks easier in 16 but other than that I don't seem to have a problem with gameplay.Proud season ticket holder for the Oklahoma City ThunderComment

Re: First Patch
I don't see much of a difference at all. Still plays the same to me.Comment

Re: First Patch
Scoring from corners has gotten quite a bit harder. I was putting them in at a pretty unrealistic rate before the patch.
Keepers definitely better. Finesse long-shots get saved a lot now. As do short side low driven shots.Comment

Re: First Patch
I am on PC and I've been going back and forth between the pre and post patch version. The difference is subtile, but clearly, I prefer the pre patch version and I will probably stick with it.
The overall pace is cooler. AI teammates feels more involved in defending. The cpu build up feels more random, every thing seems more random. There is more emphasis on zonal play with more overloading of the area where the ball is. More physicality and more midfield battle. The cpu feels sometime a bit OP in the way it takes advantage of physicality, but you can counter that using shielding when the situation requires it. As a cons, the cpu lines up are often a joke considering the personal of a team, but this is not really different post patch.Comment

Re: First Patch
My biggest complaint is how fast the game is playing now. I played like 4 games last night and it felt better than it did at first. But I still loved the feel (speed) of the game more pre patch.
