Do you have fse installed ? Those mods need that launcher to run , I ' m pretty sure <| sep |> Thanks for actually considering it ! Handicap , in the way I ' ve seen it over the years playing FIFA , isn ' t some magical piece of code applied that makes one team win and one team lose . It just artificially applies momentum , which is a thing in real football . In real football , a team might get dominated first half and go down 20 . They ' ll come back second half with a real desire to win . They ' ll take more risks , play more aggressively , and just have more drive to score a goal and pull the game back . Where as the team who was just dominating 20 will want to hold onto their lead . They ' ll play more conservatively , try defend more , and often are overwhelmed by the newfound aggressiveness of their opposition . This doesn ' t always lead to the game being tied , but often does . Textbook comeback . The issue I have with FIFA is that rather than allowing the players themselves as in the human players to feel these emotions and play accordingly player who is losing to go ultra attacking and high pressure , for example EA artificially boosts and reduces attributes to help one team and slightly hinder the other . You could say it ' s realistic , but it ' s not really . What would be realistic would be the human players themselves feeling the momentum , rather than EA applying it . Sure , it feels great when you ' re down 20 and in the 80 th minute you score a goal and then just feel all your players get more aggressive , faster , pressure more to try and draw the game before the 90 th minute . It creates a more exciting game for both players as one team is desperately trying to hold onto the lead and the other team is like I CAN DO THIS ! . But it ' s artificial . The emotions you feel are disingenuous as EA has dictated that you Player A will now have an easier time to score a goal and Player B will have a hard time defending . It ' d be great if you were playing for a crowd of people as it ' d create an exciting game , but in the realms of fairness it just doesn ' t belong .
