In reference to my ever increasing interest in my journey of "
stupidity online exploit EA WTF adventures " following on from this post:

I tried today and set my pro as GK (which you can do freely at any time), so now this auto gives you quick access before anyone the GK slot which means its easier to get captain & GK, thats point number one (see post link above as to why thats bad).
Point number two, if I dont get captain or get GK slot if someone else takes it, I can choose the other positions, effectively a pitch player as a GK pro type. I was astounded to find out I then can play "play all" and switch to any AI that does not have a real player (which is now half the team as you only get 5 slots on a team for pro drop-in).
So now even if I dont get a captain slot or play GK slot to ruin it I am guaranteed to be able to switch to any AI and completely manipulate the game that way... even though EA removed "play all" as an option at the game start this year, seems they forgot about GK pro's playing as players.
Dear oh dear, the shallowness of online and stupidity of exploits and bugs is beyond funny.
Whats my point?
Well EA set this mode to be half humans and the rest AI this year, and with one person being a GK pro and either getting captain or not, or being a GK or just being a GK pro in a player position .. in all areas you can ruin the entire game for everyone constantly with more control than any other real player and you actually get XP/Coins reward, hell, I even got pro boosts and accomplishments, its sad but true.
I know not everyone is an online fan here, im not either, but I really did just want to see how bad pro mode had got esp changes this year to drop in, and there you have it. I only found this out when I decided to try GK originally and got the captain slot ... it then dawned on me the amount of control you have.
