Yes, if done right patches should always work in current modes/saves.

Awesome. Thank you!

The CPU AI definitely needed a boost to its attacking/goal direct gameplay. I've enjoyed World Class alot this year, but as I've gotten used to the game, very rarely do I see the CPU putting up more than 1 goal against me per game.

There's still not quite enough "pizzaz" (if you will) to their attacking logic. Excited to see the change in action.

I was also wondering if the AI formation (star players on the bench) works with current career mode savegames.

I just played Liverpool and Man City and their formation was an absolute joke.
De Bruyne, Sterling, Silva, Sane, Firmino, Coutinho, Henderson, Sturridge, Mane etc. not even on the bench -.-

Good thing I played through all of The Journey before starting my career! Yes, that should be fixed too in every mode.

One fix for career mode. Thanks EA......

Interested to see if the change go AI attacking directly works as I'm hoping it will. Currently, you can get the AI to play possession, but it's still so hard to get them to play direct long passes.

Did you try Liverpool? They're very direct with lots of long balls. This is on both world class and legendary with default sliders.

Rented and have just been trying custom tactics.

I have a hard time coping with the CPU on Professional. How can you guys play on World Class, let alone Legendary? Any tips? Oh and I am from Europe so I know how to play soccer.

Just take your lumps man, plain and simple. I played Pro until I felt more comfortable with my dribble, then when I was beating the CPU pretty easily, I jumped into the deep end.

It definitely sucks that there's no longer a team practice mode, I always felt that was the absolute best way to work on those finer nuances that you really need against World Class. C'mon EA, what's up with that?

Right stick moves. That, and knowing how to use all of the RB/LB modifiers.

i just want to know if cpu is more aggressive at scoring? they seem to be so easy to beat even at legendary level! anyone agrees??
 
# 35 JHedges2 @ 10/17/16 10:44 AM
Anxious for the PS4 patch! Haven't played since it dropped for PC, as I don't really see the point in playing knowing the game will be different soon.

That PL package is too good.

I had amazing close games which were really tactical until the patch.

Seems the patch did the opposite than what it said. Haven't received a goal since then (world-class, 9min halves and semi-assisted).

Seems like EA is starting to patch things that should've been left alone.

Am I the only one who thinks that the game also got a lot faster since the patch? I really liked the tempo before and now it really feels rushed.

Sure will. I posted my season in an earlier thread for FIFA 16. Offline tournaments are all I play. I can't stand playing a season with unrealistic rosters. Ronaldo playing for West Brom or something like that.
