FIFA 23 Developers Finally Nerf Lengthy Players in Latest Update
Follow Us
FIFA 23 was launched this September to a very positive response from fans. And players have been enjoying really overpowered player sessions thanks to FIFA 23’s easily exploitable Out-of-foot mechanic.
This allowed players to easily beat a goalkeeper by taking shots from certain angles. And this became a problem for some players very fast, as a trick like this can make and break any game. To fix this problem, EA Games fixed the accuracy of this shot by 30%. And players with this trait got nerfed by at least 10%.

This is a big change, but not the only one. EA also nerfed taller players as they somehow were unstoppable on current-gen consoles thanks to a console-specific feature known as acceleRATE. This feature gives players a speed boost while sprinting and with this increased speed, taller players become practically unbeatable. So the developers went ahead and nerfed this too.
A number of players who were taking advantage of these “features” are now reporting that they don’t work anymore. Overall, it might be a very good thing that EA went ahead and did something to improve player experience.
But these are not the only things that EA fixed in this latest patch for FIFA 23. Here are some pointers from the patch notes:
