Why is ea ignoring the matchmaking issue in FUT

[Caffina]

So I got this game today for 6 dollars. I was like, how bad could this be. Man it can be bad. I can't play anything. Every single game I go against a god squad and get destroyed. Is ea really this stupid to not fix this issue?

@Caffina I think that would cause more problems than it would fix. Anybody would be able to make an 80-rated team and play you -- even if they are Div 1. Or, you would encourage bronze-benching to get your rating lower as an exploit to play weaker teams (making your games harder, not easier).

You are bringing to light a concern that has nothing to do with matchmaking and everything to do with timing. The FUT cycle is nearing its end... meaning, everyone's team whether they are Div 1 or Div 10 is going to be stacked 190+ squads.

If I may, build yourself a team with cheap 5-Star Weakfoot players on good Chemistry Styles. 5-Star Weakfoot players are known for being good to play with even if they are statistically weaker players simply because error is reduced.

Cheers!

They are extremely disappointing. There is no incentive to buy these games if FUT is so unbalanced.

@Caffina I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm curious to know, what solution do you have to offer?

It's a very simple fix I feel. Match a 80 rated squad up with another 80 or CLOSE rated squad. Going against 90-94 rated squads all the time sucks. You can't do anything against them.
