Who else hates First Touch?

[PurePlayinSerb]

I was really bad first night, got better to the point i feel i mastered it, yet i still hate it, if an attacker makes a good run, and you through it to him, the ball will usually stop dead in its track when it gets to them or bounce in the air, negating the great run the attacker made... i feel its a gimmick to nerf great passes, and id rather have it the way it was in 12... anyone else understand what im saying or agree?

I don't agree with you, i like that it makes the game play a little less perfect (read: more realistic). Let's be honest, if the CPU wants to screw you, they'll do it with or without first touch.

And you do realize you can turn it down to minimize the effect right? It can even be turned to zero so it's a non-factor. I would do that if I were you, if it'll make you enjoy the game more then it's not even negotiable.

It is frustrating, but very realistic.

Keep first touch in the game for here until eternity.

Yep I think it's fantastic.

Another thing that helps is that I (this is hard to describe, bear with me) "throttle" the left trigger as i receive the pass, almost pulling it in and slowly releasing it as i get the ball. To me it feels natural like how you'd receive a pass with your foot in life.

A small disclaimer tho- i have no idea if that works at all, it's become second nature and an OCD thing for me now so YMMV...
