I’m a ruby 3 player and got absolutely destroyed this weekend. Matched players I recognised all weekend. All with haaland and mbappe. It’s a joke how it’s division based on showdown because bronze players have the same chance as ruby players to get the best rewards. Absolutely ridiculous and has turned me away from the game.
@@Hatters10 What a question is this 😂 Ive spends thousands of hours playing UT and honestly this game has given me a revival and joy playing it rather than the bullshit we have to deal with EA. That’s my view on the matter of course this is my opinion and my views, but i absolutely hate EAFC and the whole concept of the game and the release of so many promos and players and the fact of power curve making your players useless it absolutely kills the game and the point of enjoying a game…
@@astralwavesounds so you think it’s fair that bronze players have the same chance to earn the elite rewards as the very best? The only people that think that is fair is surely bronze players? There’s so reward for being a better player in this game. You may as well just be a bronze player to get the same rewards. Makes no sense
As of this moment, they need to fix their entire game !! Plus I think blocking a club should stop further matchmaking with that person. I faced a guy who scored 1 non sense goal and then kept back passing the whole 1st and 2nd half. I blocked the club but I matched him again after 4-5 games and he did the same damn thing again. This was the first time I messaged and abused someone on playstation
Platinum 2 ... 4-2-5 at showdown .... cross to the side ... header to Haaland or Mbappé .. first time shot ... and I conceded this type of bs like 30 times in those games ... corner kick goals another 25 times .... this is ludicrous ... Even if I managed to score 4-5 goals ...often it was still not enough for constant bs spamming festival. A few of those rats sent me a message like " sorry mate, this game is broken" .. Laughable, why would they even waste their time to play this game like a biatch and then send this type of message ... Fifa turned people into bags of trash
What if you got matched with people with your W/L Showdown record and all those ruby players were what is left in the game? Those who are below may simply not play it because if all the stuff they cant handle.
I came up against 83 team's im probably 70 now . I was only losing by a goal . But I lost 4 and won 1 my showdown was over in an evening . I might as well just quit and collect the rewards I'm going to get for waisting my time
First Showdown i went 7-5 my team was low/mid 70, This week my team was high70 low80 and i went 1-5 against high80 and even full 91 team 🤮 not good mate
@@sirspongey5489 at least 6 this weekend in showdown, all my 5 ties were with 90th+ minute goals against me. I stopped at 8 wins, when I could have easily went 15-1 if not for dda
@jonathanc.8424 yeah man it's so obvious when it's going to happen. You can't defend at all and your players all of a sudden have no movement or agility. It's got to the point now where I've just stopped playing. I'm sick of loosing to starter teams where their 70 rated GK saves absolutely everything and my 86 rated GK can't save a simple shot for his life. The most frustrating part for me is when you're trying to pass or clear the ball and every single attempt will either go straight to the opposition or the ball will go nowhere near where you was aiming. You can start the match and your team feels good, then you can feel the change in the way your team plays. Imo the DDA in this game is worse than Fifa and that's saying something lol
I am in premier division in normal divisions, I can basically only match Ruby + in there, I play the same people most of the time, and nearly everybody I played in showdown I recognised lol
You should match your own skill level. Why do you not want to earn your wins? You should not get handed free wins against people way lower in skill who should never match against you. You still won your showdown games so whats the problem here? If the game mechanics need to be updated to give varied gameplay thats fine, but you should not hope for varied gameplay by playing lower skilled players who arent just doing the meta. Its the gameplay exploits not the matchmaking that needs updating. We want players to stay in the game, I am enjoying this game too and want it to do well but if players brand new to the game come up against you and get smoked by your 90+ team against their 60 rated team, they'll uninstall the game and never look back. They simply shouldnt match against you.
I do that every single game in ranked divisions, why should I play the exact same people in another mode for the same rewards that a bronze player can play for? That is just dumb
Put yourself in that bronze players shoes, if that's their actual skill level, it will be just as hard for them to earn 15 wins. What I'd love to see is a tournament mode where the first round is more open and from there its based on your wins alike to an IRL cup competitions. I fully know that if this were to happen some people would complain about DDA anytime they lost to a team weaker than their own in the first round.
@@Zelonius That's what divisions is for. When divisional rewards drop rest assured you're going be rewarded far more than the aforementioned bronze player as long as Strikers doesn't botch it up that is.
I agree with the OP here. Streamers is many games cry foul when they are sweats and get matched up against other sweats. They want to get matched up against casuals for the highlights, but then when those casuals get driven away, and their channels die cause no one is playing anymore, they start blaming the developers for the game dying. Nba 2K started listening to the sweats halfway through 2k21 and slow killed their game. Now no one plays that game and channels that were thriving are now in the mud. Skiller based matchmaking is always good for the long term health of the game, as long as the rewards are adequate for the skill level, and as long as there is reward for getting better at the game, which means, getting rid of DDA. DDA punishes anyone who wants to compete and get better, as it is frustrating when losing, but completely takes away any joy from winning, unless you are one of those few losers who enjoy winning with help from the AI.
I didn't play today and i feel better. The game pass from fun to toxic in 1 week
Wait till Sunday all the sweats should be gone
@@MrGenieBlinksi will try Play sunday jest week
Agreed I stop playing so much I can’t stand how toxic it’s become and the abuse of the mechanics just isn’t a fun experience for me
Me too, im waiting for Update
Fully agree with u on this
Didn't even finish showdown in plat 1 and couldn't be bothered with the sweat for dead rewards, got 3 wins then just quit it. Dead game
I might as well just drop from plat back to silver for easier gameplay since the rewards are shite

Yep, I can understand that
In my opinion is that how it should be playing against people in your division otherwise how is it fair
@@astralwavesounds have you never played fifa?

Im plat 3 and went 1-5 in showdown.
G3 same record 😂
Plat 2 .. 5wins 2 draw 5 lose matchmaking in Showdown is a joke
I got -50k RP last night .. after i got David from Team Pass now im sitting on -45k RP after some games.. but where is the logic in that ?
Same, it’s so fucking stupid
I was just winning 2-0 with 20 to go and this virgin just abused corners and I lost 4-2. this game is a joke
Just so you guys remember they said they're gonna give more boosters in challenges but they DIDN'T. Liars
Game is crazy, I had like7 last min draws in showdown...

Is there any way to see how many people there are playing the game? Would like to see a comparison from the first week to now.

Keep up the good work

Community is actually worse than FIFA. Just abusing diagonals and proud of it. Can't play football in a football game. Uninstalled.
Im very very close
Its shite, and they lied to us, in two patches they turned this into a toxic mess.... deleted and good riddance
First Showdown i went 7-5 my team was low/mid 70, This week my team was high70 low80 and i went 1-5 against high80 and even full 91 team 🤮 not good mate
I have went back to FC cant believe they fumbled the bag
The game is not fun anymore, it's a dda fest. If I wanted to deal with scripting, I would be playing FC, at least there's menu content.
I was either trolled yesterday or it was AI every game I was winning and they would score in the 94th minute to draw . Absolutely pointless
DDA fest, it's going to kill this game.
How many goals have we all conceded or scored in the 47th minute or 96th minute. Literally every game you play it's almost guaranteed this will happen
@@sirspongey5489 at least 6 this weekend in showdown, all my 5 ties were with 90th+ minute goals against me. I stopped at 8 wins, when I could have easily went 15-1 if not for dda

How do you know the rank of your opponent?
I am in premier division in normal divisions, I can basically only match Ruby + in there, I play the same people most of the time, and nearly everybody I played in showdown I recognised lol
Messi or Cr7 to partner Haaland and Mbappe in attack?
I honestly wish I'd got Messi, but I have CR7

For every win in showdown I can get 10k RP?
No, that is the final rewards.
@ ahhh that’s a L from them
No but you can get 3k RP per win in Showdown inc the bonus applied for each match.
