"Cut scene for contentious fouls can now be skipped."

This is good too. Noticed this before PK's, as it would just show my crowd, then the 'other' crowd. I'm like--let's go here, lol...

Stoked about several things here:

-BPL Presentation additions (Yessssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!)
-Frame Rate issue during skill games
-Players clearing ball instead of holding
-Improved contested header logic
-GK positioning on corners

All these are really nice to see.

That said, I'm a little worried about the "Increased CPU AI tendency to attack directly" though. Hopefully this means the CPU will attempt more 1v1 moves, and not that the teams will refuse to play possession and only move forward at all times. I've actually enjoyed my games against the CPU (World Class) this year, really hope they don't go too crazy with the changes.

Soon as in, later today? Or soon as in like next week? I can't remember how it typically is with these things.

I was super nervous about the patch but after seeing that PL broadcast presentation, I can't wait to DL it!!
