Handballs

Do you guys have this turned on or off? If on is called too much?

Re: Handballs

Actually, it has been pretty good from what I can tell. Sometimes it will give a random penalty. A couple of fut games ago I won 2-1 on a handball penalty in the box during extra time. Sometimes the cpu wins on these as well, it seems to even out. But for the most part it is fun to play with.

Re: Handballs

I play with it on. I get about 2 called a game. Usually one each way.

Re: Handballs

It's nowhere near as sensitive as it was when they first introduced it (FIFA 12 I think?). You could bank on 2-3 penalties a game. Much more reasonable now.

Re: Handballs

I had no idea this even existed, maybe it's because I play online? Are there even handballs online?

Nope*, unfortunately. If it's in the game, it might be in the game, if we want it.

*They will call it on keepers once in a while, but I've only seen it about 3 times since I've got the game.

Re: Handballs

After maybe 60 games or so with handballs on, I turned it off. I agree with the above statement that's not nearly as bad as it used to be, but you can still count on a handball being called for a penalty, a little too often for my liking. They dont even show a replay of what happened to get the penalty if it's a handball which makes matter worse for me.

At least if you replay it now, you can see the ball making contact with a hand/arm.

Have you tried the "ON (no penalties)" option?
