Try with the generic long ball tactic, it seems to work for me although the cpu might change the tactic during the match sometimes. This works with default sliders. Played against Seattle Sounders and they sent a lot of long balls to the forwards.

Well, I've seen the long balls work for example, didn't try the other ones. Surprisingly the custom tactic with long ball was not working as well.

Ok, have tried it out on both PC and PS4 and it's definitely working, when I set the custom tactic to the previous page and switch the runners to get in behind, the cpu plays long ball.

Got a chance to play with updated rosters, and default sliders last night and something seemed to be clicking now and then.

I used the default "Long Ball" tactic on a team set up as 4-4-2 and they seemed to play it longer to the forwards more often than before.

I don't know what to think any longer.

did anyone remember that lobbed balls in the final third were more common in the demo? I feel like I never seem them in the retail game, but definitely remember a larger variety of passes in the demo..

Just a roster update? I can't imagine how that could possibly have an effect on custom tactics working, but something seems to have changed from when I started using the live rosters last night.
