Score! Match - PvP Soccer

It’s certainly an addictive game, but mostly because it’s so frustrating and seems designed to make you feel like you were sooo close to winning. The AI is brutal - my players will be running and I try to play a thru ball to them but the defense is SO much more reactive. Players never step to the ball on offense. On breakaways they always choose to shoot from outside the box instead of running in a bit farther, and I lose the ball multiple times a game because my players choose to pass when no one is open - doesn’t matter what the player type is. Also had a hilarious PK loss where the opposing player just tapped the ball down the middle and my goalie put his hands up after a moment pauses, lifted his foot, and got megged. It was actually funny but indicative of the serious deficits in AI. The slide tackle function is terrible - it should be a button that you can hold when you want to tackle and then gets recharged over some time once you release or do a tackle. Or you can tackle as much as you want but it happens immediately and the dribblers are better are going around the tackle. Current system is terrible. Beautiful graphics and animation. Sooo close to a 5/5 but the AI is just too awful to give higher than a 3.

I concur with the latest review on the AI. There is the illusion that you are playing other players but most of the time you are not because nobody wants to play this awful, lopsided match after the first two skill leagues. For example, with players 3-4 levels higher than the opponent, when they slide tackle and take possession from you, the player that committed the slide tackle is able to get back up and steal possession from you EVERY time even if your player doesn’t fall. Try slide tackling the opponent, your player never gets up in time and often never steals possession even on clean successful tackles. I made in game purchases, what a mistake. I thought it would help me maintain progress through the professional league but lose to team level averages of 1-2 like levels don’t matter. You can easily distinguish the reduced aggressiveness of your offense once you reach professional league. They simply won’t play offense and you are usually outnumbered 3 to 6 in the offensive zone at all times. Needless to say they are attempting to lure you in to purchasing more as you will question whether your player levels are too low. Let me help you all before you make the same mistake, it does not matter one bit. Level 10 player will still lose to a level 2 opponent once you reach professional league. This game is an underdeveloped quick scam app that is exciting for the first hour or so of gameplay. Inconsistent refereeing, AI, and performance.

I don’t understand why their games keep getting worse. FTS14 was perfect. FTS15 not as good but still ok. The original Score was great. Everything since has been terrible - awful game play, and geared just to make money. I learned to live with Dream League and played it a lot. Score Hero I just stopped playing when I couldn’t get past a stage. This game - where do you start? Absolutely, it gets harder within the same level - I win the first 3 on semi-pro, then never win 3 in a row again in 25 tries. It doesn’t remotely play like a soccer game - just boring standing around, clear long thru balls only succeed half the time at best. Shooting and passing does not function like the old games - curving or determining the height of the ball isn’t available. The touch on the shooting is way off - you aim it inside the post that is where it always has gone with the proper weight, now it hits post or goes wide. Lastly, the process of playing defense is a joke - it’s just guesswork and slide tackles. You have to zoom out to the widest angle to see where most of the attacking players are, and when they get closer to the goal, you can’t see all the attackers at all. Dear god First Touch, just update FTS14 a little and call it FTS19. Enough with the crap games.

This game isn’t even a game. It’s a little 2 minute video that leaves little options that make you think you’re running your team when in fact you have no control. The only control that you have is on offense you can decide in what general direction you want the ball to go and on defense you get a button that says at some point someone on your team will try to tackle the person. I liked it at first but that’s just because it was in my favor since I was a new user but the second I actually started playing consistently I lost every game. At that point you then are just in an endless loop of getting enough daily credits for three games and each of those games is more infuriating than the next. Your players don’t run the way you want, the opposition defense is flawless compared to yours even if yours is higher leveled, and almost all of your tackles end up as penalties in which case you just have to sit there for 15 seconds watching how pointless a defense is when they can’t tackle. I wouldn’t wish this game on my worst enemy because of the true anger that comes from thinking each day will be the day it turns around. The developers of this game are true spawns of Satan if they believe that this is a fun game and they should fix their issues before even thinking of ever making another game in their lives.

I’m there the other day in the 3rd arena with a tram full of levels 1and 2 players, against a team of entirely level 3s and 4s I got solidly beaten. The game isn’t on the level at all when anyone can upgrade their players to the fullest at low levels and just walk through the others at the same level playing the same game. The cups are a joke and a waste of time. You enter and you’re immediately put in with a team that’s 2 levels above you. Of course you’re going to loose that game it’s like a college team playing Barcelona. And answer me this why every time you get a free kick around the opponents box does one of your players always start in a blatantly off side position? No one does that. Half the fouls are obvious red cards. Constantly put in impossible positions with no way out of but to play the ball directly too an opponent. The goalies hold the ball too long. The way you unlock formations is a joke because new formations are apparently something to be “earned”. BS. The commentator saying time for a change of tactics when there’s no way to change tactics in game. This game is garbage and I’m convinced the people at FTG have never watched a soccer game. No matter what you do you’re going to lose to the guy who paid 5$ for the in game purchases. No way around it
