They really have to remove the one player lock to the ball. This is very important but people don't seem to understand this. PES does NOT have this limit and this is why in PES anything can happen. If I am close to the ball I have to be able to attack the ball even if another player has locked on to the ball.
For example on a corner if I use "Cancel" to break free from the rails to attack the ball - I will automatically "give up" my lock on the ball and my closest team mate will now lock on to the ball instead. Meaning I can not try to head the ball just because of the scripted limit.
This is why in FIFA you will only see one player from each team try to head the ball. This is not how it works in real life (or in PES). I wrote about it before but I tried PES 2010 and on a corner I jumped and two of their defenders. I won the header but I headed the ball in the second defenders head, making the ball deflect wide. That defender could jump even if he could never reach the ball and that is what is so great still about PES (one could argue that is the ONLY thing good in PES).
This player lock limit is the number one problem with FIFA. This is also why sometimes you try to pass to someone and another player locks on even if he is farther away from the ball. In PES both players can lock on and then when the game realise it should drop the lock (auto run) on one player it does.
I don't think they will ever fix this though. I am pretty much alone in crying about it. Oh and Rob knows what I am talking about. That's about it, so yeah they will never fix this.
Edit: Oh yeah one simple thing they need to fix: If I play on World Class, for the love of God set my AI team mates to World Class too and not only the opposition! It is set correctly in BAP:S but in single player (when you control all the players that is) your team mates are still set to semi-pro AI. This is why they don't cover space and play completely retarded off the ball. Someone mentioned bad defenders and this is mainly because of the semi-pro settings, because your opposition always have a better defensive line (unless you actually play on low difficulty, then both teams have retarded defenders).
