- Bigger Punishments for players who only control one person. E.g when someone only tracks back with their midfielder to allow the AI to defend for them.
We were told AI attacking runs would be improved, and that Manual Defending would be rewarded but this isn't the case when someone can just let the game work for them. Punish players for not switching to the on ball defender. Or make ai attacking runs better
-
Buff Manual Defending - following on from the above, Players need more rewards for actually defending. Increasing the Jockey Speed to help out with this would be a great start. Just to help counter the already good dribbling.
-
Punish Bad Tackles more - I know this was a talking point, but I think it needs more punishment. There are still frequent times where someone will tackle. I can see a small punishment, but they are still able to recover. It might be the strength of the tackle plays a factor but it is still a thing id like to point out.
-
Formation Buffs/Debuffs - Once again there isn't variety for different formations to be used. Granted the community is at fault for not trying new things and only using the "Meta" ones. But why is it in a 442 the cms help out on defence, but in a 433 2, the cms never help at all. Why is it a 4213 defends in a 4411 with 2 dms, but a 433 2 defends in a 4123 and not a 451? Even though both have wingers, the 4213 tracks back. More formations should be viable so that there is more variety.
-
Counters, specifically when a player is PTB - if someone wants to ptb, then fine thats their playstyle. But they shouldn't then be able to R1 X straight to their front line for an attack. This isn't to nerf pinged pass. Its more to make it harder to get to the front line. Don't have the entire team that was just Defending non stop, suddenly just run with no stamina issue.
Its a risk vs reward thing. The reward shouldn't be guaranteed counters when Defending deep all game.
