I have nothing to base this on, but I totally believe that the devs play around with the code on a whim, and no log is made, hence why the changelogs are always along the lines of: "General changes, probably? Dunno, feels a bit different? Give it a go!"Sometimes I think Konami are having great fun implementing patches and then just looking at all the Pes forums as people are going mad.
I think this because there have been a few changes over the years that weren't mentioned but have been proven beyond doubt - even silent bugfixes - so gameplay changes do happen.
In fairness, they've only recently started doing this - and thank God they have - but it's mainly so that EA have something to refer to when legions of FUTboys shout "Y U DO DIS SHIT", so they can go "read this article, it's because it's not realistic to do a 180-degree blind 35-yard-pass to a striker is it, you fool".Chris - Konami's lack of transparency astounds me.
When you look at the deep dives and timelines and detailed patch notes with images and videos and graphs showing and proving the changes by EA for FIFA it becomes totally comical at how Konami approach it.
