What exactly "programs" the AI to sometimes act poorly?

[NinthFall]

The AI is so inconsistent.

I have no idea when my own player is going to run towards another player in my team to actually tackle the ball away.

Sometimes they also react very very slowly and another match they can be very fast at reacting.

Sometimes when you want to pass to a player close to you the AI decides to jump over the ball to let the ball roll slowly to a player much further away.

What exactly decides these things in the game? How is the player controlling the team supposed to know when a player is going to behave like it should and when not?

When your AI teammate sees you pass the ball to him, WHY does he not come towards the ball? WHY does he let the opposite AI run from 10000 kilometers behind him to get the ball?

Also, the most annoying thing; why the hell does the computer controlled team ALWAYS take the ball to the corner and cover it there for the last 10 mins or so? WTH is that ****

That is them trying to "park the bus" to kill the game off. It's good they added it to the game, but its implementation is a joke. The cpu becomes super human in shielding the ball, and even if you hold RB for help the second defender will just stand there and watch.

Parking the bus by shielding the ball in the corner should be viable for a few seconds and not like thirty seconds in real time.

Super cancel will fix the majority of these issues. Hate to be that guy, but practice your super cancel and you will see less of these issues. My advice for defending is switch to Legacy defending, and only control your CDM.

No need to create two threads about the same topic.
