This actually exists IRL but the way this game represents it is not so perfect as some other details. Most times it kills that "wow" feeling when I score... Still, matches are hard sometimes and I still celebrate when I can actually score a winner!

Agreed with the point that those slow goals exist in RL, but yes, they are represented quite frustratingly at times. The replays usually make them look better I find when theyre in slow-mo.

A while back someone brought up that you could just stand there with the ball at your feet in your own half and CPU defenders wouldn't pressure you for a while, even in situations where they should be. Just now I did an experiment:

I was up 1-0 at the 60 minute mark, I did a short kick off pass to a teammate standing to the right, just outside the 18 yard box, and I just had him stand there with the ball at his feet. Time ran out, and no one ever came up to pressure him.

Obviously this is a house rules situation, and it wouldn't be any fun to take advantage of this "glitch" to get an easy win, but still. What the hell?

(Also, this was on Top Player difficulty. For what it's worth)

Def this game is very poorly coded. That is very, very bad. They wanted to avoid super pressing maybe, and make the CPU more human, like waiting to see what you´re going to do... but it doesn´t make sense this way, it might even be game breaker! There are some things that reaaallly starting to get annoying in this game.

Zero pass assistance is the way to go, never going back.

What level do you play with manual passing?
I´ve been testing it but I need to play professional to find the game fairly balanced.

I've been playing on Superstar, although Top player is still pretty solid.

Welcome to the club my friend.

I'm definitely not brave enough to play 0 bars passing on anything above professional, but I will say less is definitely more with regards to pass assistance. Anything over 1 bar of assistance, and passes are too often "assisted" to wrong teammates.

I feel like direction is 90% of what the game uses to decide who you're trying to pass to. So, even if you put a tiny bit of power on a pass, if your aim is even slightly off target, your pass will be blasted 50 yards to a guy who the game thinks you meant to pass to. So frustrating.
