No words about the defenders breaking the defensive line with deep runs too often and too deeply...
That one is getting on my nerves.
 
More fouls... ooooh - exciting!

I got to say tho - whatever they did with last patch - it made the game less challenging.
With Player Based difficulty on - im leading in the league and was winning most matches comfortably.
I cant really pin point what happened, but I had to ramp up slider errors to crazy level and difficulty to World Class. Which never happened to me, playing Fifa on Full Manual.
It feels good again for the moment, but Im afraid its all heading the wrong direction..

This is actually not an issue/feature on the PC version. The defense can hold a line there.

Agree. I tried to make a report on the EA forum about it/line height slider not working. I probably didn't explain it very well, so I'll go back another time and do a better write up but I just wanted to try and get something out there about it. Could make the world of difference if they fix it.
 
@Anth James Probably best to just save a video of it happening, along with the console you’re playing on - I don’t know if it’s unique to next gen and I don’t know whether PC is based on the PS4/5 version.

I feel like the passing through the centre of the pitch and the ping pong within the penalty area has ramped up, possibly since the previous patch. I played a couple of games yesterday and today that included some pretty annoying CPU cheese goals - one was against Palace where the CB (Andersen?) thumped a driven long ball to the left winger that took barely half a second to travel 50 yards, with the winger one touch drilling a cross to the striker for him to hammer it in. The whole thing was over in 2 seconds and there was nothing that could be done about it.

The other one today was some insane one touch stuff inside the penalty area from Liverpool, all just crazy crosses and lay-off volleys and extra passes before thumping it in. It’s worst with Man City but you see it vs Burnley and Blackpool too.

I think a big issue with the defensive side of the game is that it’s all about players reacting to the ball as it moves. Getting too hung up on your position and not on what is happening with the ball or your man. And when the ball is passed 8 times in 3 seconds, every single pass the defenders (the ones who try to move at all) will change direction, which means the inertia kicks in as they try to shift their momentum. The overall effect is the defenders are rooted to the ground, effectively hypnotised by the passes rather than tracking runs or staying on a man.

I just had a look and there’s a few people on twitter saying the same thing too. I hope they patch it out. It’s really my only issue at the moment.
 
Is there any slider you can adjust to make to goalkeeper come out on 1on1s? Can't recall this has been any issue in any FIFA before, it's more of a "PES thing" and makes scoring really unsatisfying when you are alone with the keeper.

Thanks pal. That means a lot. :)
just yesterday I bought myself an app (pixelmator for iPad) so I can do a bit more editing wise. Had my first steps with the app and hope to become better with that stuff over time.

again, I’m not used to those lovely lengthy patch notes! 😍 boy oh boy… and what I read is even better!
really, this is such an unknow pleasant surprise for me. Do these changes really come true?! :SHOCK: :LOVE:
not that I like all the points but a lot of them!
 
I hope there will be a patch / Live Update to make the goalkeepers more aggressive to come off their line. It breaks the immersion if you are on a 1on1 and you get all the time you need to place a shot because the keeper is stuck on his line
 
i mean game based on same engine,same AI patterns and share same bugs. Net phisics and heavier ball feel doesnt make different game, its just detail...just my 10h experience with ps4 trial and now ps5 version.
 
Obviously both games are based on Frostbite engine. But I don't think they share the same engine.
We can easily notice the differences in rendering ways, motion capturing ways, physics...
Probably next gen uses a enhanced version of Frostbite. 100% bet "not the same engine".

This isn't for PS5 is it? The link says PC and Stadia. Disappointing as I was looking forward to some more fouls.

It is, it's just that the PC (and now Stadia) version has historically received updates a week or so before its console counterparts. The Stadia version is identical to the PS5/XSX version.

This is what i said, new ball and net physics features adopted to same old engine.
 
Can they now fix the constant errors in the media questions.
The amount of times the game has mixed the teams around, and asked me questions about why I have played players out of position - Sorry didn't realise for the last 10 minutes, I couldn't play a RB at CB when switching to 3 at the back.
And also being asked in September that my win against Leeds has now all but relegated them, how do you answer a stupid question like that.

The thing is though you have to do the media interviews, as they massively improve team and player morale.
They also need to do something with the training as well, needs a massive overhaul.. I get an A with every training session.
Players should improve over time with a training schedule, not I want him to do every session and massively improve.

Here we go, I rewrote it. If anyone has any video examples, send them through and I'll add in. I haven't had a chance to add yet. I'd be so pleased if they could adjust this.

Feel free to comment etc on the post so it can gain some traction.

Thanks a lot for this. I'm EA Creator Network, so I have access to the developers. Whenever you have a bug/error, please send it here, and I will pass it on to the developers.
 
Still feel that I'm new to FIFA so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or there's a setting I need to tweak: does everyone get the occasional exaggerated pass or through-ball that rockets the length or width of the pitch and gives possession back to the AI? The typical scenario is when a CB has it and I just want to play it out to a FB (wide open, no pressure), but a slight tap produces a ridiculously powerful pass or through-ball that either goes straight to the opposition or goes out for a throw. Have to say I see it much more when I'm leading in a match, and never when I'm behind, so I suspect shenanigans whenever it happens. (Offline, Career Mode, World Class, semi-assisted controls, modified OS sliders.)

Ok no worries. Thanks man. Fingers crossed we have some luck with this one, I think it would make a big difference.
 
Come on stadia users give us a foul update ..I'm actually ok with fouls on professional (more would be nice) but they are dramatically reduced on WC mode
 
Emroth said:
More Fouls was a main request on Fifa forum, Career Mode section, which makes me think they actually do read and act upon posts there.
I started being a little bit more active in there. We shall see if we can push a bit more.

Maybe with this FIFA license up in the air they have to listen to users more
