![]() ![]() The FIFA series needs to reward solid judgment over exploitation of game mechanics. The chasm of getting goalkeeper movement right or wrong is too pronounced. ![]() Like timed finishing, the idea holds weight, but the execution isn't right. Many attacking scenarios only have one viable part of the goal to aim at (especially if a defender is in front of you), so quite often the goalkeeper will come out on top. It's too dramatic to be a sustainable feature you're either left with an unbeatable wall or someone who is going to let in every shot. Nor does it take long to spot when someone is using it. Goalkeeper movement doesn't take long to learn. But GK movement is so broke that when you move the gk on the goalline he can still safe it.Ĭan we please fix goalkeeper movement? I hit a green timed finish when the goalkeeper completely moved in the false direction. Frustratingly, players have been forced out wide by the way FIFA 19's defending system has regressed. Chances are almost guaranteed to be made. The trajectory of the ball is difficult for AI defenders to cut out and isn't something that can be consistently cleared, making it an overly simple route to goal. This isn't the skill gap increasing it's the developer quietly trying to brush aside a highly promoted mechanic that doesn't work as well as it should.Īs a result, many players have switched emphasis to using wingers and playing lofted crosses into an aerial juggernaut like Zlatan Ibrahimovic. There's also an inconsistency when perfect shots are hit, meaning players have far more control if they steer clear of timed finishing. Whereas slightly mistimed shots used to go on target, they are now likely to land closer to the corner flag. Only now has EA managed to tone it down but almost to the point that the risk-reward command isn't worth using anymore. Both posts detailed and explained the technical side of the system well, but in reality, they made no difference to ridiculous goals being scored in every match. The developers tried to lower the efficiency of timed finishing with two patches before the most recent one. EA even included a weekly FUT objective to not score finesse shots in multiple wins. The argument could be made to not use it, but then you'd have been putting yourself at a massive disadvantage against everyone who did. That's almost four months of FIFA's annual cycle with a broken mechanic in place. Matt Craig like he knows first time finesse shots are still OP □ ![]()
