Thing is, I genuinely enjoy FUT at the start of every year when you have a mediocre team and everyone is starting out. 1-2 months in it becomes dumb though with all the ridiculous cards and everyone getting really high rated teams. The offline gameplay most years isn't too bad either once you adjust the sliders (there's this one forum that always tries to find a good balance of sliders and they do a good job with it). The problem is usually the off the pitch mechanics in modes like career mode are usually so bad and lack depth to them. Not sure what it's like this year as it just came out today for me but
@Solius seems to not be a fan, which is a shame.
The most fun for me has always been if you have people you can play it with regularly offline, as it's the user base more than the game itself which causes it to be annoying as feck by always trying to exploit things IMO.
