Hey guys,
I'm back to talk about this 6-7 year old issue about how FIFA's game physics change all of a sudden once you've played for a couple of days/weeks - not sure exactly what the tipping point is.
What happens (across all consoles) is this:
Players start moving faster, have sub-par ball control, AI gets dumber...without the user changing any settings! It might be something in how EA actually build the game. Maybe after a while they figure they'll let you "be better" by automatically adjusting sliders in your favor behind the scenes ...without any slider settings actually being modified as far as you'd be able to tell.
I've seen this since fifa 2009. It's really simple. You start the game and it feels realistic, and players move fluid, within certain laws of physics lets say... and after a while, days/weeks, depending on how often you play, the physics change with no apparent reason and the players start moving unrealistically quick and jerky!
Surely some of you guys who have been playing this game since forever have noticed this when playing against the AI. Don't you remember how difficult it was to win when you first installed the game? The AI would connect passes expertly and never ever drop the ball...even on a low difficulty level. Then after a while, world class, legendary..doesn't matter, they start to behave like a bunch of morons where the ball just bounces off players.
Also, I swear that on one FIFA title...I think it was 10 or 11, at one point the game physics flipped for dry and wet/snowy weather and players would glide around unrealistically in the dry as if it was snowing or raining.
So I ask you...is there something wrong with the way FIFA is constructed...on an algorithmic level? Does something happen tot he game physics automatically after a while?
