One thing I'm worried about: how is FUMA on FIFA? I've heard people say it's far less free than on PES. I don't know if I can give up that sense of freedom. No Super Cancel either
There is super cancel, just a weird combination.
Obviously - I didnt play this one, but I can certainly tell you few things about fuma on Fifa.
16 was perfect, as I still play this now (and love it).
From 18 up FUMA was... weird. I certainly wouldnt say it was less free than Pes, if anything - it felt much more free... and random.
Its probably due to "Lock on to target" mechanism. See in Fifa you have two options - it will lock to the target early, when you press the pass button, or it will lock onto last minute, when player kicks the ball.
Due to players being twitchy as fuck - both are not working great.
If its early lock on - your player might twitch and turn, resulting his body being away from the direction and passes going to shite.
Late lock on is very hard for Pes players to get used to, coz quite often our muscle memory assumes that direction is locked and we are trying to start a run with the player as we kick the ball. Which results in pass going towards direction we wanted to turn last minute.
It takes a lot of time to get used to FUMA on FIFA and its much more challenging/frustrating than Pes.
But its also rewarding and (due to much more free ball) adds more randomness than on Pes, where FUMA still sometimes feels a little bit assisted..
There's a hope here, as from what people say, the pace of the game is slower, so there might not be as much twitchiness and over-responsiveness in players, which might result in much nicer FUMA gameplay.
