Not for this bug it's not. (Not even going to call it a glitch, it's a simple bug that should have been fixed years ago. I'm guessing there is an architectural issue with the servers as to why it hasn't been fixed.) Both clients have to report the match result and both clients are sending a different result. The server isn't validating the results against each other, it is just trusting that the client is reporting the correct result.

Even if they validated the results against each other, there would be a workaround for it pretty quickly (like telling the other client you've just scored etc) and that wouldn't change shit for single player FUT games where there's only 1 client..

There really isn't a good solution for it, otherwise EA would have fixed it years ago. They know is a huge problem as it adds trillions of extra Fifa 16 coins to the game every year..

I agree it's a design flaw but it is one they should have accounted for when they knew they were going client/server architecture. It's a basic rule to never trust the client (although at the time both PS3 and Xbox 360 where trusted platforms).

In single player mode a simple "fix" would be that the client shouldn't be able to report a win until the duration of the game has passed (so at least 12 minutes). Not ideal but at least it would slow down the coin generation.
For online, telling the other client you have scored is a lot more difficult than just editing an in-memory address to adjust the score on your end. At that point you need to hack into the communication system (which should be encrypted) but that would allow EA to add client validation to check the ball position etc if it gets a message saying the opponent has scored.
It is a huge problem, I'd guess it requires a re-architecture to fix and at this point there is no way EA will do that. That's why we are getting all the bandage fixes in the hope of slowing down the coin generation.

IMO it may help to get in touch with the some of the mods/former mods from that forum, because my impression is that they(along with most veteran PC users) share the same kind of cynicism when it comes to this problem. When Rob was actually asking for feedback about what people want to see change on Fifa 16 account, the mods even said that any PC specific issue will most likely be ignored.

Of course I could be wrong about a lot of things, and EA could be doing something behind the scenes, but if they are, they are doing a very poor job communicating that to us PC users.
