PC user here. I can confirm that this patch dramatically improved cpu AI defense and teammate cpu AI defense. Teammates on defense are for the first time in a FIFA game useful! I guess some devs there at EA played PES 15 and decided to fix this problem after 6 years.
Lobbed through passes are also fixed.
Some more gameplay observations:
- GKs have even better positioning and their reaction is improved.
- I saw cpu backpassing in vanilla 1.04. I still prefer to play with the ini adjustments though.
My biggest problem right now is that I have 2 great football games...
