Default Petition to CANCEL FIWC. Vote if you think so.

Many people are saying to cancel FIWC because of the number of cheaters using custom teams in the game, Lets have a poll and see how many of you agree with me that FIWC should definitely be can celled because EA have completely LOST IT.

Agree, this is turning into a laughing stock. I gave up after I played against a fantasy team cheater.

Added poll. Vote and lets forward this thread to EA to show how much majority votes to cancel FIWC.

Show your support and get FIWC canceled, In your face all you cheaters ! If we can successfully get FIWC canceled we would have wasted 6 months life of those cheating *******s who have been using 0.5 star teams and making them 5 star and getting all the points.

CANCEL FIWC.

4 votes, All yes. Perfect .

Just thought of something, Cancel online qualification EA, Increase Offline Qualification tournaments around the world and instead of having 11 spots for qualification online have 11 spots for winners from the offline qualifiers. This way NO ONE qualifies from Online and you need to win an offline qualifier and actually prove that you are good enough to be in the FIWC.

EA are making their most prestigous tournament an absolute laughing stock by their own incompetence. Even if all the cheaters are removed, this FIWC will be remembered for the cheats/glitches, not the football on show and quality of the players.

What is a cheater? Someone who uses a glitch in the game to his advantage, Thats what a cheater is. So dont you think people are cheating when they are using this glitch? I completely agree its EA's fault, But its also the gamers fault who know that its wrong yet they are using it.

Definately cancel, no "good" players will even be in the tournament if this cheating bull continues. I stopped playing fiwc as soon as i heard of this glitch and im surprised EA have done nothing to fix it.

um no good players? So your saying the ones that win the live qualifiers are also cheaters? btw I think at the end of the day the cheaters will be removed, theres none here in the oceania region at least, its a fair battle here. Def don't cancel, if you want to give up thats fine but don't cancel it because of a few cheaters.

Dude. Wheres the

"No. EA are trying their best to run a tournament so that people over the world, even those who cannot make it to offline events, can participate in a tournament with a great prize. We all know some people can't appreciate anything, and want to cancel a tournament when there is no personal cost to them in keeping it open. We know that the thread maker has no clue how hard it is to police 250,000+ people and that in the end all cheaters will be caught and banned"

Really....I'd vote for that. Not easy to release a game every year, its hard enough meeting deadlines and putting in loads of new features every season, I'm just happy online is so good, nothing is perfect, and I can accept that. You get cheated a bit maybe, but are any of you going to come 6th? (or whatever other place just outside of your regions qualifying number) Only a hand full could POSSIBLY miss out on the opportunity to play in FIWC live through glitches, but everyone gets them there is no excuse.

If you hate to pay to enter FIWC, I would COMPLETELY back you up, but its FREE, you have NOTHING TO LOSE to stop whining.

I wouldn't say the whole top 100, maybe most of the top 20 apart from haunted.

i forgot about the offline qualifiers actually lol. But if they are going to remove these cheaters it's going to have to be sooner rather than later because eventually everyone that is getting affected by this isnteven going to bother with such an unsupported event. That's right I said it UNSUPPORTED it's basically 20,000 for the person who knows how to cheat most( for the online players anyway.) I wont be surprised if EA offer tutorial lesson on how to cheat there as they seem to be letting that sort of vibe off by staying silent.

What chance in hell do cheaters have of winning??

Once you qualify, to get that 20,000 you need to win the offline tournament final, and guess what....all the pros will be there. So if they are cheats, say hello to 100-0?

They may not win, but incase you forgot they stole many of the fair players places didn't they? you know the people who actually bothered to play fair not the ones that went with la galaxy with ronaldo. And of course it'll be one hell of a boring event when the cheaters get hammered of course i know that you didnt need to point an obvious thing out. But a lot of people who played fair in the online events wont get a chance because of the idiots.

I never played a FIWC match, but canceling the event is a bit harsh, instead EA should find and suspend the cheaters for this FIFA and the next FIFA game (2 years), like a doping suspension and the players who has cheated, should have a refund of a win, when he or she played the cheater, e.g. if a player played 10 cheaters, he or she will get 10 wins.

Good idea in theory but I could imagine that would be very time consuming and difficult to do.
