That has become so cliche and not true. It is true that you can get stuck in an animation, but 360 motion is not on rails

I don't know how else to explain it. You're controlling the player, moving in an in a specific direction, usually to play a loose ball, usually in position to gain possession before the defender. Then, unprovoked, your player juts to the opposite direction just before gaining control, and they player you would have and should have beat to the ball actually gets it.

It's comical how this game has been like this for soooo long. And it's the 1 minor detail that has such a major effect on the gameplay that really destroys it.

Certainly a dead horse to beat on the AI vs human tuning in this game, but I want to rant on two aspects that continue to piss me off.

-CPU's ability to dispossess me from behind when I'm protecting the ball/have dominant body position. I can have full control of the ball, and my back to a defender and somehow, without committing a foul, the defender can poke the ball away from me right to one of their players.

-When I commit an unsuccessful tackle, but not a completely missed tackle, and the human player ends up staggered away from the cpu on the ball, and yet when the cpu unsuccessfully commits a tackle, they remain right on me like a sweater to continuously hack away. I am slowed by unsuccessful tackles while the cpu is not slowed by contact in this scenario as well.

I would really love to see the FIFA gameplay and game scaling tuned to be more organic in coming years. Especially in career mode.

As silly as this gameplay variety scaling can get in Madden and NHL at times, it's nowhere near as obvious and off-putting as in FIFA.

^ One that pisses me off to no end that has been in FIFA for years is , if I make a successful sliding challenge the player I have tackled still manages to get to their feet first and retrieve the ball back.

its amazing how the user's experience changes from person to person.

I can honestly say I've never had that happen in fifa or pes. ever. Since 1999 I have never noticed playing on rails or my players jutting out anywhere I don't control them to go.

I remember last year on ps3 I was having a real turd of a time doing certain lay ups and defending the paint in nba 2k14. Turned out my controller wasn't working in the top-right diagonal direction. going left to right I never noticed it in nba, and just thought the controls were 'laggy'.

I put in the show to play some world series and than it occurred to me the controller was cactus.

You've probably just never noticed the "on rails" feeling but it's there. Sometimes for good reason too but there's a reason why "Super Cancel" is in the game.
