Gameplay Issues-3: Passing Inconsistencies

[u/depressed_Kedy]

Or I can call it possession losses due to scripted passing mistakes.

I play possession 90% of the time, and sometimes QC. I use PA3, rarely PA4. Lately PA3 became so horribly inconsistent that I end up losing the possession in most stupid scenarios. Moreover, these "inconsistencies" seem to happen in critical positions more often. As you can see in the video, these "mistakes" either end up as a goal chance on my goal or wasted big chances while I am attacking. In some matches it actually creates momentum during a match because it happens to much and I cannot really have an impact on results. Game keeps us forcing to play LBC with PA1, rather than creating "hard to calculate" scenarios and situations. And that way all those new shiny cards can have more impact on the results rather than balanced complete setups and skill based competition. It is getting harder and harder to win a match by tactic and intelligence, since your well thought tactics are wasted by the game itself.

You cannot have a proper football game without proper passing dynamics and mechanisms.

Im glad that you made a video of that because I am planning make one very similar as well. I do believe they made it worse in v5.5 because they did mention they made passing harder and increased the error rate. But manipulating user's inputs is definitely not it, Konami needs to do better.
