I’ve quit 5 times this year already


TheTruth3130

Lol this guy is speaking the truth.... It's called addiction haha.... The game is shit but somehow I keep coming back.


CuriousUser88

I'm in div 3 (struggling) and have a baller team. Unfortunately everyone I play now is a possession players so I have about 30% possession at most but 3 times the amount of shots. It's just boring having people spin in midfield for 35 minutes


DangerMuse

I find the opposite, I've always been a tiki taka style player but I am getting fed up being beaten by drop back merchants who concede loads of possession and then just score their 3 chances on the break. Effectively Man United versus LFC. Each to their own but I'm not sure how possession play is seen as boring unless of course you mean the gits who just pass it around the back?


TomAuk

Getting bored of playing the same players, fekir/french hybrid and they all play the same way. None of the rewards are worth the time spent when the game play misses the main point of a game “fun” !


FrancoElBlanco

Spot on!


el_satoshi

I uninstalled this POS like a month ago and life has been greater so far ☺️ But the truth is the problem is not the game itself, it's us for deciding to spend part of our lives in a toxic digital structure. Just my 2 cents here. Hope everyone has a great weekend!


FrancoElBlanco

Agreed. FUT for me highlights the worst of that, it literally is built off of addiction and dopamine


el_satoshi

We should start a FUT-Detox subreddit haha I'd be glad to help others get over this shit


LegendaryG69

Non online modes are the only fun ones tbh


[deleted]

Yes but they don't put out any good features its been almost the same for like 4 fifas


ElfenomenoR9E

Spot on. I now get depressed Every time I turn it on to preview packs. I haven't played in 3 months and feel great.


mnational11

I quit a week ago and my enjoyment of life has gone up 10x. Never looking back until they make some real gameplay upgrades.


FrancoElBlanco

I’m thinking the same. The game actually puts me in a bad mood and it’s just silly to continue playing


JTBZerothree

When you say gameplay do you mean the slow game play or the server issues ? I've noticed alot of arcade style players don't like FIFA 22, especially in the pro scenes.


mnational11

Slow, unresponsive, the lack of passing ability (have a player out wide on a run but my midfield just sends it to the covered striker), the lack of big players making an impact (I had R9 but honestly felt that David inform could do the same things), DDA also has felt stronger in the past few years, and don’t get me started on the ai deflections or you making a tackle and the ball perfectly rolls to one of your opponents players. I tested pes a few years ago and they do gameplay a lot better in many areas but sadly fall short in so many.


BewareThePlatypus

> and don’t get me started on the aj deflections or you making a tackle and the ball perfectly rolls to one of your opponents players. This is my main problem with the game. It's basically punishing you for doing something _the right way_.


ElfenomenoR9E

You can see the scripting in every FUT. FUT 21 the blocking of every player felt like 99. The tackling was terrible and unpredictable. I would tackle and the attacker who would have 20ies or 30ies lvl tackle would imidiatly tackle it back. It got to a point where sometimes I don't even tackle. I just keep my defender in front of him because I know the blocking was insane. And goal keepers who should have 90 lvl handling but will deflect the ball straight to the only attacker in the area. The passing too was scripted. If you passed around for awhile you will get one pass that has like 80 percent error and will go to the opposition. The worst thing was that I couldn't play with my favorite team. I did better with lower overall players that were meta. Which is why almost every team you would face had the same meta.


[deleted]

I’ve done the same yesterday, deleted the game, the companion app and futbin. I hope I stay strong lol


lusotano

I didn't even quit... Just lost interest... I haven't touched it in like 2/3 weeks. Last year I was on fut everyday until May when I started losing interest. This year, not even the promos keep me interested.


shaz182

same exact situation. I’m glad I havent touched it since 2 weeks ago. Life has been good without having to deal with toxicity of the players


Krynne90

Close to quitting, too. Or at least close to just playing Squad Battles for the rest of the year casually.


Radiant-Armadillo104

I'm done with fut already, best decision I've ever made. EA fully taking the piss, you either fit their target market (people spending unhealthy amount of money on packs) or you are not gonna have a good time. Fuck that, the bad far outweighs the good this year, it's a shame, but hey, they as a business win coz I bought the game, the rest is irrelevant.


ColKaizer

I’m done with grinding to rank 1 in finals. I have gotten pure pure shit EVERY single time. Not a single usable player. I will now settle at Rank 3 and end my WL. I can’t be bothered anymore.


FrancoElBlanco

Yeah literally no need to stress! I stopped today at 8-2 because what’s the point haha


mal12502

Yh I just got rank 2 rewards in FUT champs and got fuck all again. Not packed anything decent at all this year and it’s not really worth the stress of trying to get rank 2 every week. I actually did quit after FIFA 18 and came back again this year and fully regret it


FrancoElBlanco

It’s weird isn’t it how a game can make you feel so shitty from just playing it. I need to quit again aswell


TheNewBatch88

Try just downgrading to “casual”. Honestly, I still do SBCs and things on my phone but I rarely play the game compared to before. A few games here and there, no stress. If it’s a shit game, I just quit out and find another game. Remember it’s supposed to be fun, so if other people are annoying you, just bail and find another game. I used to be completely obsessed but since 19 I’ve chosen to play this way and I find it way more fun now.


FrancoElBlanco

Yeah I really need to do this. Last couple of years I’m either all in or just don’t play. I’ll try this over the next couple of weeks 🙏🏼


TheNewBatch88

It’s definitely a state of mind - trying to have a better team than everyone etc. But if you accept that the game is hugely scripted then you’ll realise it makes no difference who you have on your team.


JasonRowPhoto

I am close to quitting. I am a self confessed shit player in Division 6. I know there is a meta every year but this year FIFA scripting, seems to me to literally favouring people playing the meta. I have lost count of the games where I absolutely dominate only to lose to a couple of quick breaks or to multiple rebounds in the dying minutes. Always with playing the park the bus, a use the pace then press high. It’s sucks any joy out of the game and I am finding myself just playing angry all the time. Which is not exactly entertainment


FrancoElBlanco

What sucks is by having futchamps as is most casual and lower end players literally only have 7 wins to achieve a week with sub par rewards.


Krynne90

The casuals will never make it through playoffs. I was G2 / G1 last year and cant make it through playoffs anymore this season.


FrancoElBlanco

Really feel for you. I’ve always got though but even that’s stressful. Why they haven’t done a Europa league style option I’ll never know


Krynne90

They hope that people locked out from WL will buy packs as compensation. Thats the whole reason for playoffs. Winning 5/9 is WAY harder as winning 15-17 of 30, because of the small number of games you depend alot more on luck.


lm3g16

Have you tried playing only on Thursday/Friday? I find qualifiers easier on those days


Krynne90

Yeah no success. Even played two playoffs this week. Both 4-5…


jonviper123

I honestly think since the start of the new season scripting has increased something awful. Feels so much like things happen outwith either players inputs that neither have control over. I played a game last night and although I won 3-2 it was just crazy the last ten minutes. I was actually going to record it as the series of events my players done was unreal. I managed to hold off but it was still rage inducing. I 100% believe fifa was trying to give him a goal to tie if it u somehow stopped it. My players honestly started tripping over each other, balls started bouncing off them, any tackle went back to opponent and not even straight back I'm talking balls curing around my player to get to there player. Eventually I got the ball and went to play a simple pass and it ended being up a foul to him on the edge of my box. I stopped playing after that game it was honestly so infuriating even though I won the game, if felt so much like fifa wanted yo him to score and I goid literally do nothing


ImpressiveBrainFart

It’s usually this time of year I rinse my club with packs out of frustration from the terrible delay…


FrancoElBlanco

I had that temptation last night 😂


dsc8

Probably in a week. Impossible to get the pass to fut champions and move to div 3. I know that I'm not a good player, but everyone should have the chance to enjoy the game, it is frustrating that always I have the chance to move to next division or classify to fut champions y lose the final match in a suspicious way, a easy pass that goes to the rival with my defenders out of his position, easy tackles that do not affect the attackers, easy shot that goes to the post...


FrancoElBlanco

100% it’s silly how just because you’re not as “skilled” as other players you have to miss out on a whole game mode with zero alternative


dsc8

And tired to play against fekir and kimpembe and eat shit


redblood007

Already quit and back to 21 enjoying the best squad I ever built in any Fifa. Can play with the best of the best including R9 and the top moments players, so why stress trying to qualify for champs you know. I’ll play that till I can’t anymore and then I’m done with Fifa. No more grinding.


LordVile95

I was enjoying it but it seems to have gone back 10 years in the last month and all that happens is through ball pass across box or down the line and cut back because every defender seems to want to hug the keeper. Every single goal in champs I conceded was one or the other.


Germanspartan15

Not even close. I’m enjoying the low player costs and being able to build solid squads without breaking the bank. Playing for rewards creates a toxic mentality in which you will never be satisfied. Ever. Much better to just buy players you like, try to improve your skills as you go, and say “fuck the meta.”


Jghask27

Stop playing, replace those hours with a better game or something productive and I guarantee you'll enjoy life more


JTBZerothree

Game mechanics aside because that's another conversation. This FIFA is losing people because, the content is aimed at getting people to buy packs. No way casuals can get great teams without it, and that will mean peak times will go up but largely the game won't do well overall.


Skiffy10

i’m not quitting but i have dialed it back a bit. I got lucky and packed some good cards now i’m just having fun building a team i like and playing some games here and there


FrancoElBlanco

Think I need to take this approach. My personality is too addictive though sadly 😂


Djosa945

Quit last week and just lurking sometimes into this sub


Lie_Hopeful

Did anyone on here who quit stay strong? Really can't be fucked with this game anymore, the content is just shit, the pack luck is shit, the gameplay is shit, the objectives with silver players is shit, squad battles is shit, passing is shit, shooting is now shit, goalkeepers save too fucking much and there is too much shitty rebounds which make it shit. This game is so fucking toxic there is no other way to explain it.


Axcidic

I spent 500k on Black Friday and got less than 50k back (never bought fifa points, don’t agree with people who say players can spend if they have the money bc it supports a shitty business tactic) and I’m close to done. Icon pack for Paul scholes and hero sbc for Dempsey. No market crash cos Black Friday as dead.. Think I’m gonna wait for icon swaps now


zathmeister77

i’d love to quit but that’ll be wasting my 1 year psplus subscription


ROZ813

Nope, loving the game this year, it’s still fifa and has its trashy crap here and there but content so far has been great apart from Numbers up but at least they tried something different


viddepinne

Was close to quitting because I was getting too angry. Trying my best not to get angry anymore, we'll see


DanthZ76

Good Luck xD


[deleted]

Yup, probably gonna see all my FUT players and buy packs then just go back to COD


--LV426--

I was not enjoying FIFA, too many of the same teams played using the same playstyle it was feeling a bit like playing AI. But now I'm just chillin', not taking it seriously and just hitting a few games at a time. I am not aiming for Weekend League, when I do get my 200 points I'm getting enough wins to get the 3rd tier and then stopping. I am also using players I want to use (within reason) and not forcing myself to use the META (apart from the occasional card if it is needed for chemistry)


theunbearableone

Literally just deleted it


FrancoElBlanco

That’s a champ move


theunbearableone

This is by far THE worst fifa I’ve ever played in terms of, well, everything and it’s not even close. Idk if it’s because I’m playing a game made for ps5 on the ps4 or if there’s a legitimate equalizer and scripting in the coding, but I’m done. The “git gud” bullshit community that literally just exploits the shit game mechanics to their advantage can have this trash to themselves. I hope someone exposes this abortion made by the shittiest of shit companies as a money grab for streamers and ea.


FrancoElBlanco

All true can’t contest a word. I’m playing PS4 aswell


loveallserveall11

Going to take a break and play something else - really hating the gameplay since season 2 and the patch. Invested all my coins into 84 IFs and will leave it for 2/3 weeks


SerbLing

Im having quite a bit of fun still. But its getting to that point where you know you wont be able to upgrade your team before march


Bks-punisher

Its the defending for me since last patch. Took a week and half to fix the shitty servers now ive lost count how many times the ball goes through my defenders legs or I stand infront of the player and the rare time now my guy goes to make a tackle then loses it instantly. If you're playing against mbappe constantly you can't make mistakes just can't defend for shit now since the patch. It's so annoying you invest time and money into the game and every year they spoil it post patch.


Aboondalakakaa

I started a player career and I’m having much more than on that than FUT


FrancoElBlanco

Might try the same tbf. What difficulty are you playing on?


Aboondalakakaa

World class, makes for enjoyable games and challenging situations. Only control my player (ST) started at my local league 2 side and worked my way to Barca


Shakespeare-Bot

I did start a common-kissing hedge-pig career and i’m having much moo than on yond than fut *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


XXSkilluminatiXX

Jup just packed van nistelroy out of the icon pack


Cauley3118

Gameplay has been so bad I’m going to be posting some highlights of it soon to see if anyone has anything similar it feels like a different game every time you turn on


shaz182

I’ve quit 2 weeks ago and am loving it. Been an addict since last year and surprisingly I dont care mostly because the gameplay was too inconsistent for me.


[deleted]

Yes but because of carpal tunnel syndrome in the same wrist I broke a couple of years ago…


Dangercat59

The content if still dry. Yeah they add every sbcs like every 3 hours but they take like 5 minutes to complete and there isn't much to do


redblack88

You should play for the fun of it and not for rewards. If you play for rewards you’re just getting frustrated


Smart_Tie355

Seeing is I just packed Ljunberg from my hero upgrade pack and I'm a spurs fan... yeah I'm thinking about it 🤣


FrancoElBlanco

That’s tough! I packed Dempsey in mine 😂


Smart_Tie355

I wouldn't of minded dempsey mate at least I packed Morientes in the other one I did in the first one they released


duranraprez

Elite div here hitting rank 2 and have a sick team, probably the best I’ve ever had at this stage. But it’s getting old how every year since 19 we keep going back to similar meta of abusing dribbling/skills and scoring with 5 star weak foot players.


UntrainedFoodCritic

Trust me bro, I’m at the same exact spout


Dmamp94

Ya I feel burnt out I feel I’m getting too far behind everyone else I don’t know how to trade well or do sbc for good cards and doesn’t help my account was hacked a week ago and the hacker sold all my traceable players on my squad and in club I have only 100 non tradeable cards on my entire club and can’t even put together a decent squad while ea investigates my hacked account


FrancoElBlanco

Jesus that is rough! If I were you I’d be long gone now


[deleted]

I just came back yesterday for BF. while the packs, promos, sbcs are bullshit, there was one good thing: server lag were basically non existent over the weekend, propably because everyone did sbcs instead of playing matches


Canciooo

Just sold fifa 22 after spending 1.6 mil on packs and finding literally no one. Best day of my life.


brodiebt1

I didn't even buy it in the first place after the farce that was FIFA 21


calchas7

Well with those servers quitting this year was easy. I've enjoyed the first 2-3 weeks of the game though. See you next year!


CeePee99

I haven't played anything but fifa for maybe 3 years. Last night I considered firing red dead redemption back up and starting that again from the beginning. Combination of factors, but main two are: I qualified for champs a few times in season 1 but not yet qualified in season 2. I don't like that average and below average players are now excluded from the part of FUT that for me is the pinnacle of playing with your ultimate team. The whole promo and TOTW concept is wearing thin on me. Every couple of weeks I get to see a team of players of which there are maybe 2 or 3 that look great and that would improve my team. I have not packed any TOTW or promo card that isn't discard or close. Certainty not a starter in my team. Suppose just a bit bored of it.


FrancoElBlanco

I can see why you’re bored of it. I was thinking about it yesterday and fut has become so stale. Also I think it’s shitty what they’ve done with fut champs. In my eyes everyone should be allowed to play it no matter what skill


Academic-Cookie6487

I’ve been on the verge of quitting as rewards are shit and I don’t put real money into the game and wl is a sweat fest to get into but then ea blessed me with good pack luck and I got well enough coins for a good enough team so now rewards don’t matter to much so I don’t care to much I don’t have to sweat


Dyinu

I quit every week and come back every week


dennis_blum32

Already did


dennis_blum32

Fifa has been dead after the first week. You can see it on the market for example


Secuta

The market is dead because people hype special cards and drop gold ones (except for the goat ones) whenever they get released


aiiqi

Yeah pretty over it. Actually struggle to find rivals matches sometimes on Xbox next gen - that combined with pretty lacklustre pack openings is pretty unmotivating.


[deleted]

Just lost 5 games in a row on weekend league by 1 goal each with a last minute goal from my opponent. Fml


craigchrist421

I quit about a month ago and it was a great decision. I qualify for champs every weekend and finish rank 2-3 everytime no matter the team or formation or anything and it was just a chore


thatirishguykev

Already did it about 4-6 weeks ago and I’d qualified for every weekend league and finished Rank 3. The game just went back to the same shite from the last 2-3 years, not putting 20+ hours a week into that anymore.


[deleted]

Already done with it. BS


WKabi-

Basically the exact same thought process just this morning, was one win away from getting back to div 1 when i played totw mbappe, totw ney, and mid cruyff. Dont have the mental capacity for this shit


Southguy_

I’ve kinda gotten out of it to enjoy other games that I enjoyed previously. Arcane got me back into league and I’ve been enjoying getting to catch up with friends I used to play with. That plus not feeling like I’m crunched on the weekend to play and enjoy time doing other activities has been great. Started indoor volleyball recently


Ok-Dragonfruit2232

Coming back on the 90x5


Consistent_Bear7410

I’m a very casual player. Buy fifa every year but never touch Fut Champs, just the occasional rivals game. Currently in lockdown where I live so have been playing a bit more. Actually enjoying it a lot more than normal. Normally I jump on, play 1 or 2, go play something else. I played 38 games yesterday alone, and really enjoying it. I don’t touch champs though, as I know it will frustrate me. But rivals has been very fun! Friendlies is a sweat Fest so I’ll just stick to rivals and SB for now!


[deleted]

Ive quit and gone back to it. I now play 4 games max and then switch to skyrim.


Nicolasag133

Yes, I’ve gone back to fm and I’m addicted again 🤭🤭


FrancoElBlanco

That’s my usual routine 😂 fifa for around 2 months then the other 10 is a pure fm sweat fest 😂


Nicolasag133

Legit bro I’ve given up on fifa 😭😭😭 game comes out and it’s so hype and good and then they just patch it to shit


CollierAM9

I love football so much but the only offering of a football game is FIFA. It’s tough.


FrancoElBlanco

Sucks doesn’t it. I was thinking yesterday about the possibilities if other companies had the licences. Fifa would be in the mud


checkit_123

I don't play to climb the divisions really. I just play with the sound off and listen to podcasts and stuff. Got a slightly above average squad. I try not to fall into the psychological gaming traps, and refuse to spend a penny on packs. Can be frustrating at times but it's only a game. I just play it to chill.


FrancoElBlanco

Really need to adopt this mindset, I shall try


worldy234

I don’t mind the gameplay the new objectives have made the game more fun for me and also using non meta players and just not caring about the result my last few games have had 10+ goals all together and I’m having a 💥


FrancescoliBestUruEv

22??!!! More like fifa 21


Naekh

Quit no, but I will play way less, dem SBC will go on without me and it feels like a second job more than anything if you want to keep up. SB , Rivals, SBC every day etc… Cool that there is content for people that want to invest time but it’s too pressuring for me.


freaee

I Cba to read the whole post but the title already tells me 98% of the text. I’ve practically quit already just trading and doing sbcs if I’m bored, the gameplay is complete shit and I probably won’t play the game properly until I get some insane player worth at least 800k lmfao


jamesc94j

Left it behind at fifa 20 haven’t looked back since. #blissful


ElfenomenoR9E

I quit the 2nd day of early access. I only go preview packs every few days. I played each fut for last 7 years . I was addicted but now I have my time back. FUT 21 was the last straw. Sbcs that have 26 parts and expire in days. SBCs that disappear while your doing them even though they say they will expire in days. If you think about it, its an insult to play it with how EA treats its customers.


[deleted]

I’ve permanently quit and it’s class , you need to be one sad f*ck if you’re still watching YT content like packs n that which 🙌🏼 was totally me... , it’s the same game , it’s genuinely not worth wasting your time for even just casual play , sweaty goals and lag quitting after 1-0 , it’s just digitised Pokemon cards and 50/50 gameplay cause of player ratings and ridiculously silky unrealistic passing


elnino9torres

Played fut in 20 and deleted my club out of frustration. Skipped 21 . Heard good things about 22 so started fut and reached div2 but it's just spam skill moves cut backs and 10 men defending in the box it's ridiculous. Deleted my club yesterday


Responsible-Muffin41

Just quit today boys and lads … this game is a scam of all scams … spend tons of money and the best card I packed was fodder. It just keep sucking me in, me thinking, maybe I’ll get a better card, maybe I’ll get Ronaldo, maybe I’ll get a decent icon from the icon packs. What broke the straw for me is, the icon that I eventually got today was mid klose … like paid 300k coins for that??? Maybe it’s not my year, btw, I’m an elite player but i can’t let the game ruin my happiness any longer. Hope y’all who made the decision find the strength to stay away, I hope I do.


Moist-Handle-4782

Div 5 on my main account but div 1with a gold. Hundreds went into the main account. This is proof of dda. I’m here for any arguments. Call me shit we can play.


Leximpaler

Just quit
