Im not talking about taking your man on and then meggin them, im talking about a good 10 yards pass from opponent and then my defenders suddenly going into an animation where they try to intercept but blatantly let the ball go through their legs. I guess you have not played enough to experience this bullfu*kery but its clearly lowering the skill ceiling for me. Maybe its the skill, arrow form, stamina, just lower stats or PA, manually positioning the defenders should be rewarded with possession 8/10 times.
There are animations when defenders stumble to intercept the ball which looks brilliant, but then again its the algorithms that decides who gets the possession. I think instances like these are forgivable because the nearest player (or resulting 50/50) gets the ball. All in all, there are definitely elements where game tries to level the playing field, but i have come across players who know when to double press and were just brilliant in general.
All in all, the biggest difference between this and FIFA's ultimate team is that in if Efootball, you dominate the game, you get away with the win, even looses are fair (so far) whereas in fifa, you opponent can be wank all game and can still get away with the most undeserving win.
