Great Game, but Some Issues

So the game is great, you have the ability to make your own plays. You have your own player within the game. You have numerous chances to create a successful play. Story progression, great game. There are some issues rn though. The defenders seem to want the ball more than my teammates, and will often beat my teammates to the ball. The goalie seems to amazingly anticipate where the ball is going even in corners and off posts. You need to be pretty close to get the “for sure” goal. It just won’t happen from more than 15 yards. Also when I make a long pass to a teammate, he will often keep dribbling the ball til it’s out of bounds. Very annoying seeing how you have but so many chances to succeed. The AI will often waste the play on their own. Wish they did this when it was time to make a goal. You know when by themselves just him and the goalie. Instead of stopping a great distance with no one’s around trying to make the shot. Keep running forward like they do when the take the ball out of bounds. My curved crosses are pretty successful, but the defender will make his way in front of my next pass and my athlete won’t turn away and make a different pass. I’m forced to pass it straight into the defender. Start over. I still love this game though. I think this is what is frustrating me and quite a few other people. I counted 20 in the 100,000+ that are reviewing like me and are frustrated. Didn’t scroll very long either. Please fix these issues.

Ridiculous

All the obviously intentional AI issues aside, there are levels deeper in the game which are almost impossible (I’m looking at you level 46!). It’s just not fun at all after a certain point. But my biggest gripe by far are the levels in which you need to score multiple goals but all have to be scored in a row and if you manage to score two of the say three needed and you don’t get the third, your goals are taken away and you have to start the whole ridiculous and rigged process all over again. WTH. And this all comes from someone who doesn’t mind spending on a game and doesn’t enjoy criticizing someone’s hard work but as I mentioned above it was fun for a while, so I kept at it, but it’s a wrap. UPDATE: I pressed on, and....the game pretty much went back to how it was in the beginning. It’s fun again! Not sure if the devs are listening to the reviews and tamped down the difficulty a little bit or you just have push through a stretch of levels (mid-40’s thru 60) to get back to the fun. Either way, the game is back on track. Still a few glitchy AI moments here and there but at least it’s playable again and challenging at times without, but without being absurd.

Good Game, Very fun and entertaining, but….

I have been playing this game for a while, and i’ve been having fun, but the AI players are super, super dumb. They don’t even try to get the ball back and don’t try to defend from the other teams defenders. They also don’t run fast enough to try to get the ball and the other team is just always getting to the ball first, every single time. They also always let the defender get the ball like they’re passing it to them. This is what makes me give this game a 3 star rating, but for what it’s worth, this is an entertaining game, but please make the teammate AI smarter and better and maybe make the defender not faster or the same speed as the teammates so it’s even. The game devs have to make the game so there’s fouls in the game, let the players fight for the ball after they lose it, not let them go the other way, and just make the AI not so clueless about what’s happening and the requirement for the game actually happen in the game. For example, when the requirement is for the hero to score the goal, when you pass it to the hero, they pass it and don’t even try to score, so then what’s the point to even try to get 3 stars?! This game just needs some improvement for all aspects, and even in the past 4 years there have been reviews telling YOU, the devs to fix these issues, but you haven’t even addressed these issues, that is why i have you 1 star. This game is horrible. Please just try to fix this.

This game doesn’t know the rules of football

There’s no point of stating what is already said in previous reviews. I will say the updated engine is great, and the storylines are very entertaining. I’ve had fun on the earlier missions because they’re noticeably easier. However what is annoying is once the user progresses, it’s not only difficult but flat out unfair and unrealistic. I constantly find my self getting stuck trying to find breakthroughs with unintelligent CPU teammates and defenses that are impossible to get past. I’ve seen defenders and goalkeepers break the laws of physics to make me restart the entire sequence. It is clearly obvious they want the user to spend money. Why make me spend money for unlimited tries when you run ads every five minutes? It’s not a very user friendly system. Finally, my biggest complaint, the one level I am currently stuck on, if I cross the ball to someone level with the defender, it ends up getting intercepted in multiple ways. I say the game doesn’t understand the rules of football because if I pass the ball to the one open defender, it gets called back for being offside. Does the game not know that you can’t get called for being offside when passing within your own half? Very frustrating to deal with. Overall it’s fun but be prepared to have a terrible experience in the later stages of the story.

Very fun...BUT...

As many others have mentioned, this game is extremely fun and addicting. But there's a few problems that could make it much better! The heart system is no good. It's ridiculous to make players wait a certain amount of time to be allowed to play the game. The app is essentially useless for a period of time after you run out of hearts. But only if you're not willing to pay $3 to be allowed to play it for an unlimited amount of time for 24 hours. If the hearts were removed, the game could be much better. I understand that monetizing a game is the point of creating the app in the first place, but don't disallow playing unless you fork out some dough. That's just not smart. Second, the game could be made better if the passing and dribbling was made more controllable. Limiting the passing to a small field makes the game very frustrating and unrealistic. If players were given the option to pass over the entire field, or the option to continue dribbling the ball after the game is randomly stopped and you are forced to make a pass or take a ridiculous shot on goal. AI movement off ball is beyond trash. Players will sit off sides while multiple passes are made. Super frustrating. A few small improvements could take this game from 2-3 stars out of 5 to an easy 5/5. Changes would be appreciated!

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME

Listen, this game is fun and extremely addictive, but the game flaws extremely outweigh the fun of it. I have never been more frustrated with a game like i have with this one; I do not swear often but this game makes me yell out cuss words at my teammates and opponents in the game. The gameplay is absolute garbage. You don’t get to decide when the player decides to shoot or pass it, for example: you’ll send a lead pass to your teammate when they have beaten their defender, they will have open field between them and the goal and they will stop for a 50 yard goal attempt, stupid! Or your player will decide to pass it when nobody is guarding him and there are defenders all over his teammates. Not to mention that the opponents have super speed and can jump 10 ft in the air to steal the ball. The goalie floats to block your opposite corner shots. Teammates will dribble the ball out of bounds or into the possession of the defenders. Also, if you turn the ball over, you have to reset from the beginning of the match and not just where you left off. Some levels are nearly impossible because it will make you score 3 or 4 goals without a single error. There are just too many flaws for me to enjoy this game and I might get in trouble with my wife if I keep yelling the f-word to my stupid teammates in the game. I am deleting this game and I suggest that you won’t play it until the developers fix the crappy gameplay.

no, just bad

When I first got this game i thought it was fantastic, and then over time I realized the amount of bs in this game. It’s almost as bad a dark souls in the amount of bs in that game. Like u will draw a straight line to ur teammate and some defender will just come and head it away while my attacker will just stay there and not do anything and u just end up losing. The goalkeeper are like literal gods as they dive from one side of the goal to the other and u again just end up losing to a bs function of the gameThis brings me to my next point, whenever u lose u have to start from the beginning of the game, so u could have just scored 3 goals but if u give away the ball in the 4th goal, u have to start from the beginning. And then the objectives are sometimes so hard to pull off that it’s almost impossible. Everything is very overpriced in the shop and the game is heavily based upon on micro transactions. Like I have to pay $3 just so I can play the game without waiting? It doesn’t make sense. U get like 20 or so heart lives and i spent all of them on ONE ENCOUNTER. Not one mission but one goal. And I still can’t beat it because where ever i shoot or pass the defenders just make some god-like header or something. I could just go on and on, but I have more important things to do, for now I am done with this game and I might come back in the future if they make the game better.

Fun but very flawed

Many other reviews say the same thing. If the developers could make a few fixes this game could be fantastic. Way more time seems to have been put in making the defenders great than your team mates somewhat competent. I don’t mind the game being difficult, but sometimes you build a wonderful move, thread an inch perfect through ball to give your winger a perfect place to put in a good cross... and none of your players have moved from their position before you made the pass. As if they’ve just switched off and you’re now in a position to cross to no one. It’s also ridiculous that in some missions you need to score 4 goals and if you mess up the very first pass on the last goal you go back to the beginning. That really needs to be reworked. You should be able to control a bit more of the decision making. If your striker is through on goal you should be able to get him to dribble closer rather than just take a shot from 35 yards out every time. Or a winger should be able to back pass if your forwards literally do not move anywhere near the box. I get it, you’re trying to make money and push people towards buying bucks so they can hit more rewinds, but if the physics are this awful there’s NO POINT in ever putting your own money into the game!
