Hello CRonaldo07070
That review is very detailed and well done. But I have a couple of questions about the gameplay if you don't mind.
Do your defenders still randomly stray from the rest of the back line to play attackers on?
Do ai teammates still just move out of the way of runners and put you out of position to make blocks and tackles?
Do goalkeepers come forward at the end of matches when contextually appropriate?
Do slide tackles still result in the ball sometimes traveling in an unrealistic trajectory at extreme speed?
Is there still that thing where if you complete like 15 passes in a row the ones after become erratic and uncontrollable no matter what player you are using?
Thank you, all the best to you!
Yes, the ai still move out of the way and when you analyse this in the replay's you can see that the ai players are struggling with their player role which is telling them to stay in a certain area even when it makes more sense for them to close a space down. I didn't notice the backline issue, but I didn't look for it so I don't want to say this isn't an issue.
I didn't notice Goalkeepers coming up in or out of context, but I only played half of season. Which I am both frustrated and disappointed in myself for not pushing through a full season. But, as I said, I got a little bored. One thing I didn't mention was the random events. I like the concept but you definitely need to use your imagination to get this to work. For example, I got a message saying the club financials were looking well so I would retain any transfer budget I had left for next season which was great. The problem was the next one I got told me the club were having financial difficulties and they took half my budget away?? I also go an unsettled player one and was given two options, ignore him and it will be fine or bring some food to the canteen from his own country. Obviously, you would try and help so I chose the food option. Nothing happened after this, so it just seemed pointless no feedback either positive or negative.
The tackling animations seem much improved and feel more realistic, but the ai don't do them on higher difficulties for some reason. Yes the there is still some kind of RNG change after many successful passes. This is something I know has been rectified in the new NBA game this year.
CRonaldo07070 thank you for answering my questions.
All the best to you!
