It seems to me that they fixed te through ball, and passing in general seems to work how it should. Now I feel like I can pass the ball to specific sides of the receiver. I just feel more in control of my game, and had several beautiful through balls from Cesc last night. I also did not see one instance of the magical over the top on-rails through ball from the CPU. Not once. Good stuff. My forwards were also making more forward runs. One thing that bugged me pre-1.02 was that in order to play a decent through ball, my player had to be already moving in that direction. This meant that I had to use the right stick control to get him moving first. Very un-PES like. Now with 1.02, I can just point the LS in the direction of the player and fire off a through ball, and if I’m using Cesc or Xavi, sweetness awaits. It’s back to being PES again…

I can second this. Absolutely love 1.02 - everything i had an issue with regarding the defense is fixed. Players that you are not controlling are quite active, and the CPU is very active.

This is the way the game should have been released. Props to KONAMI for moving swiftly and addressing the majority of concerns.
