Post number 215.
If this is hardcoded in the console versions then I really don't know how EA can get away with it.

Haha, one of the replies in that thread.

---Fantastic if you can find the solution to this age-old issue with FIFA. It's the most annoying aspect of the game for me. I play one game and the game play is perfect and balanced and fair throughout. Then I play another game and the CPU is running around like crazy men on drugs. I can't get the ball away from them, they push my players aside with ease, I can't tackle them, every CPU pass and cross and header is perfect, etc.---


I had this exact experience last night. Played Man U at Everton and I was up 3-0, the adaptive difficulty kicked in.

Let me upload the goal everton scored to youtube. Hold on just a sec...Pardon my language, NSFW

Really impressed so far how better the AI adapts to situations in this game. Examples:

- I was playing against Leicester City and they had CB Wes Morgan sent off. Straight away they replaced striker David Nugent with Wasilewski the backup CB.

- I played against Aston Villa and was trailing 2-1 with about 10 minutes to go. They subbed off Fabian Delph and brought on another CB in Nathan Baker to shore up the defense.

- I'm also seeing the AI play the ball down to the corner flag a lot more near the end of matches. They do it when they have a 1 goal advantage but I'm also seeing them do it with the game level suggesting they are happy with a point.

Here's Eden Hazard with a wonderful run that he caps off with a well taken shot.



The problem: Watch how brain-dead Garreth Barry, James McCarthy, and Distin are. They all take turns in escorting Eden into the box.

OK, McCarthy switches off to Garreth Barry - I'm OK with that

Barry is a huge speed disadvantage to Eden but instead of playing him into the LB & CB (~0:03) he overruns it allowing me to cut back inside

McCarthy is looking right at Eden (0:05) but instead of cutting off the space he just stops for 2 secs (~0:05 - 0:07) until he realizes he needs to track back at which point it's too late

Distin is watching the entire play unfold (nothing wrong with that) until ~0:07 at which point he makes a straight line for Eden. Only problem is that Eden isn't running in a straight line. He then stops for a second before resuming the chase.

Even the RB (Seamus Coleman) watches the run and gets beat for pace.

This is on World Class - Full Manual - Orion's sliders btw

While making the run I was thinking "what the hell are they doing" before going into the replay and watching the horrible AI in slow motion. I usually don't go back and dissect replays but this one jumped out at me immediately.

Yep, that's the same as my experience and similar to the videos I posted previously in here. Last year the defensive AI had trouble tracking runs, among things. This year they still have most of those issues PLUS they don't bother attempting tackles in many situations.

It's a shame because the attacking side of the game is superb, but when it's so easy to score goals because of extremely poor defensive AI, it's not particularly satisfying.

btw, I don't know how many people know this but EA have setup a forum (for some reason it's within the FUT forum) to post videos of gameplay issues. I've posted there and suggest others do as well.
