Sounds like they are attempting to eliminate the pinball passing, with weighted passes and stamina effecting ability. Combine that with the new animations and "considered pace of play" and it sounds like it will feel a lot more organic...
Right stick feints are a welcome addition...
Obviously a lot remains to be seen... Like how the AI plays... Which can really only been revealed with some good hands on time.
I'm most curious at this point what South American club teams will be added, to go along with the addition of the Copa Liberadores.
