The calling for pass in career mode needs some work.
The ai should pass when they are lining up for a set shot. Ai takimg a set shot 40m out and my player is open in the pocket, calling for a pass should then have the ai kick to me.

Anyone know when this patch will be done cause I’m very excited to give the game a proper ago as the actual gameplay is a lot of fun and plays scrappier and messy compared to any previous release

agreed, that’s a major bugbear with calling for the ball. apart from that I don’t mind them not giving you the ball if you player is not the optimal choice - although some tweaks could be made in how they deliver the pill to you.

I also feel like some visual indicator would be beneficial if your AI teammates are going to kick to you - playing a defender and while I know my player is open and available to receive the pill - not knowing where they plan on delivering the pill to you has gotten me in trouble and getting intercepted in defensive 50…

On Xbox I’ve crashed 3 times in 10 minutes

I’m on steam and I crash 20 times with in like 5 minutes of me trying to open the game but fixed itself at some point

I wonder if you turn up the Tactics AI Modifiers for Kick/Handball risk, that calling for the ball will have it come to you more often?

Maybe not from set shots… but in general gameplay.

Can someone here please tell me what you do when reporting a problem through big ant such as in the ticket what do you got to tell and show them so they understand you?

Besides the bugs already mentioned, Im enjoying the game. But I think that the camera needs some work in the player career.

Perhaps it’s just me but I can’t find settings for the end camera angle that work well and allow me to have a good view of the ball whilst still focusing on my player, it feels like the camera is always looking the wrong direction to where the ball is going.

@JNT_BA One thing I did notice is that the draft picks in management mode still have a few games attached to them, and also the draft info still showing N/A…I know this isn’t high priority AT ALL but thought I’d note it.

doesnt that affect your opponent only? and no bearing on your team? correct me if im wrong?

how does one call for the ball in player career mode on xbox or isn’t there that option as of yet?

Just explain what you did up until the crash/bug so they can recreate it themselves.

Hold L1 to quickly switch to Follow Ball/Player.

The swivel depends on whether you’re upfield or downfield of the ball.

Most people have requested some types of 3rd person camera angles though… so hopefully something that can be worked on.

@JNT_BA just letting you know also that when you go into tactics pre game online when you tap to go out of them the game crashes.

100% way better game.
But correct. The ai freeze plus career mode I won’t be starting until the camera is better. I don’t like that it shows the front of the player at stoppages just always show behind third person view. Pretty much do what evo had for the camera.

@SaintSkeeta I’m yet to touch career mode but I would’ve thought that End Dynamic would be the best alternative for this

Really happy with the game so far, but there’s a bit of a bug that needs fixing.

When I try to move players around in the Academy, the player that I am moving stays in the old team whilst also being in the new team. For example, if I move Zak Butters to my custom team, he will stay on Port but also be in the custom team. This makes having a custom league pretty much impossible for the time being.

Also I’m pretty shattered that I can’t have a custom team in management mode, I have a custom team that I always made growing up and I can’t play multiple seasons in a row with them or trade with them because there is no function to, I can only play custom seasons which end after one season.

Stoked with the game but just a few details to hopefully fix up.

Hmmm I’m pretty sure it was for your team’s AI players… like teammates in player Career, or if you choose to Spectate a match.

yeah ill play around with it - but i also feel like in terms of the game design once your teammate decides to go set shot mode - thats it - it has to go through that mechanic
