[VS, H2H, Manager mode] Spawns and performance logic
This is not new.
No matter how many of us repeat this, all we get are surveys asking if it works or not with multiple "can you provide a screenshot/video" that reviewers in EA don't really need since they're aware and prolly have seen thousands of the same thing, but refuse to address/take action/delay til ROI quota is met.
[VS Attack]
-Unintelligble spawns(eg: RW spawns on LW side, CDM/CB on wings; vice-versa, etc).
- Inconsistent AI scaling even against teams with a lower but near OVR to yours(nulls the stats even on maxed cards vs partially upgraded cards(suddenly weak strikers, suddenly OP defenders/GK, etc).
-Goal animations take more seconds off, and most of the time takes a few seconds from the transition(black) screen to load into the next on 500mbps speed.
- Against the direction spawning of the ball without anyone in front of you, yet near the keeper so not feasible as an interception. But spawns like that anyway, a failed attempt to make it "feel real".
-Offsides from AI receivers are abysmal as well, especially for top speed cards
-Spawns are too far, but not enough time.
-AI opponent unrealistically matches your goals even after leading around 2-3 and after a blink, next round you're already evenly goaled most of the time.
[H2H] Same as above, except for spawns.
-Most noticable are current 116 OVR(+30) cards versus 114and lower (from 109, or even lower with around +20-25) perform and speed better than current meta but contradicts available stats on display(eg-current maxed ovr around Pace 180 and still gets matched while running by 114 and lower, different player)
[Manager Mode] Same as above 2 except on spawns.
- Seriously, PES that's already got decommissioned was the pinnacle of manager modes and you just had to get inspiration from it. Unfortunately the mode is still looking for its identity.
10 year old game with the same engine under the hood. One should think this would have been resolved in the first 2-3 years.
Lazy development with fast-squeeze on money, and takes years to address.
