Totally agree with most of the comments, but more to add that I find annoying.
- Having to scout even well known players in ML to see what their stats are, and having a scouting list limit. I liked seeing how well known players on other teams progressed in previous games.
- Awkard English translations of everything.
- Banners in the stadiums that say "Who ate all the pies?" "Come on! Get Stuck In" etc...
- Through balls to players running on the wing are always passed directly to opposition players despite the fact that all I want is a simple pass to the outside of the winger.
- Players run alongside through balls and you can't control them until you supercancel. This has been in every version so I'm used to supercanceling it but I never understood why they can't just let you control the player receiving the through ball normally.
- Chip shots...very innacurate unless the player has extremely high shot technique/accuracy. I dream of one day actually scoring a chip shot that wasn't by total accident.
-dribbling, turning and cutting inside isn't as great as it was in 09. Dribbling in 09 was too easy but it felt good. Seems like their solution was to just sabotage the dribbling system rather than improve the computer's defensive AI.
-AI, where is it? Computer leaves so much space for you at the outside of the box area then gets way too aggressive when you're anywhere else.
-Your player with the ball immediately gets assaulted by half of the opposition team the second he stays on the ball too long. Yet when the computer has the ball your defenders move out of the way, as the player switching button constantly switches to players behind the guy running with the ball rather than the ones in front of him.
-player ratings in matches. If a midfield player scores 5 goals in a match and gets no assist he will receive a rating of 6.5, yet if a striker does the same he will receive an 8. Is a rating higher than 8 even possible?
-New penalty system. I guess if you understand how it works it would be fine, but I still don't get it and can only score penalties when i aim straight down the net. The least they could have done was give you instructions on how it works in-game and a practice penalty mode.
-Your own players running into the player who has the ball, or blocking your shots by positioning themselves in front of the player with the ball when you are clearly in a good position to shoot. Seems to happen to me about once every match. Usually results in me questioning my sanity in continuing to play the game.
-Players have no sense of where the boundaries of the field are. Its sad and funny how easy it is to jockey the opposition players to the edge of the field and just watch them walk out of bounds because they're out of ideas. Also, your own players never seem to make any effort to keep a ball into play in situations where it should be very simple to control the ball to prevent it from going out.
I think that's all I can think of for now.
