AI Defending

EA_Darko​ Can something please be done about the AI defending on this game?!

  • They don’t tracker runners
  • They don’t cover each other when one steps out
  • They don’t close the ball
  • They don’t put tackles in when they are close
  • The full backs are still deeper

Scoring goals is boringly easy and it makes the game unplayable

While you’re at - fix the matchmaking. I’m fed of playing 4+ people as a 2. Beyond a joke how poorly this game is coded and how little understanding of football the developers have

    EA_Darko​ Thanks for replying.

    Tracking Runners: When there’s no pressure on the ball, the back line should drop especially when there is a runner. Lobbed through balls are ruining the game. The back line should drop and track the forwards running in behind.

    Covering: It really does feel the defenders have their zones on the pitch and they cannot move from them. For example, if the RCB follows a forward out of position. The rest of the back line should adjust and cover the space. They currently just stand there and leave a massive gap.

    Closing the ball and tackling: There are times where they simply stand there and watch. Not sure what more I can add to that!

    Full Backs: You know about this one but it’s still happening.

    Matchmaking: This needs to be altered so the number of players on each team is as close as possible. Playing 2 v 4/5+ is a massive disadvantage. A 2 should never play more than 3

    Division System: Again, this has been mentioned previously, but the previous Div10-1 system with 10 games a season is considerably more enjoyable than what you’ve given us
