I use manual passing, more specifically I use the through pass 90% of the time because I can get more speed with it.

This patch has made the passing feel like it is on assited when it isn't. I aim the through ball directly at the reciever and it leads him. Very odd. Anybody experiencing this type of action?

I've never noticed that, then again I don't use the through pass unless I'm trying to beat the back line.

It isn't just them, every PES tweet I see is about MyClub or whatever. If people enjoy this stuff and it creates revenue for them, it's hard to argue with their logic, but it does feel like the offline play is constantly on the back burner, which sucks for those of us who hate online gaming.

Go look at their twitter account and tell me what the vast majority of the people who tweet them are asking about.

Yeah. I've seen that. I've also tried to ask questions about Manager Mode and kits and such and haven't gotten a reply, but when I made up something about FUT, they were happy to answer. It's obvious and quite frankly, pathetic what their priorities are.

Focusing resources on what makes the most money ain't pathetic - it's smart business practice.

I'm primarily an offline, CM, single player, and I hate that the mode I want to play gets so little attention comparatively, but in their shoes I can't say that I do it any differently. After all, at the end of the day their jobs are dependent upon pleasing the bean counters at EA.

ONLY focusing on FUT is not a smart business practice. If they continue to ignore other problems, it will eventually come back to bite them in the butt.

You're right about it not being smart, but it doesn't matter because it's lucrative. Thus far it seems they've been able to improve their profit margin from the game by focusing their attention on only half the game. As long as they can maintain FUT popularity it'll be the driving force behind FIFA development. The only thing I can think of that would shift their attention towards CM would be a competitor making a game with a CM that draws away a large enough portion of their consumer base. However, EA still holds most of the licenses, and Konami is shifting their focus towards mobile gaming, which to me sounds like the slow death of PES, so that's not likely.

To be fair, if you're waiting on them to answer questions about improving any aspect of the game on twitter, regardless of how valid, you're going to be waiting a long time. The only responses I see from them are the same copy/paste type stuff like contact us at xxxx or here's a link that might help etc. They (or pretty much any similar company, such as 2K's account) aren't going to answer any actual questions about the game or directly comment on something that somebody feels is a negative aspect of the gameplay for a variety of reasons.

And? They're promoting their most played mode. Madden does the same thing and look at the things they added to Connected Franchise compared to Ultimate Team. I didn't know someone from the social media department has so much say in what's important in making FIFA.

You're totally missing the point, but whatever. I'm not gonna change your mind and you're not going to change mine. Keep enjoying your Pokemon football and I'll just try and put up with another lackluster effort for us "offline Manager Mode guys."

The Devs for Madden have already mentioned that they are disappointed at the current state of CFM, which tells me that they are looking to vastly improve this mode next year. Why can't we get anything like that from the FIFA devs?

The FIFA devs used to be pretty good about communicating with the community, but since about the last six years, they give us nothing really. Especially us single player guys.

Not to sound mean (or stupid) but what exactly is your point? And what is anyone trying to convince anyone about? Nobody owes you any type of justification or reasoning behind why we play fut just as you don't owe us the same as to why you play offline only. The difference is I don't see many (if any at all on here) people throwing out anything similar to the Pokemon garbage about offline players. If it makes you feel better to think the mode you like is better and the one that the most people play is stupid so be it but it adds nothing to any type of discussion. I don't understand the anger with people who play fut, though I do get the anger with them consistently putting out a bare bones career mode. Keep fighting the good fight though.

Oh absolutely. It vaguely resembles the actual ball used. And during night matches there is nothing "high-vis" about! Looks dark and dull.
