FIFA 18: Neues Update soll KI-Verhalten bei Anstoß verbessern

Electronic Arts hat ein neues Update für FIFA 18 veröffentlicht, das vor allem das KI-Verhalten beim Anstoß verbessern soll. Demnach soll das Team in der Verteidigung enger zusammenstehen und die Angreifer besser abschirmen bzw. Räume besser schließen. Umgekehrt sollen auch die Angreifer nach dem Anstoß nicht mehr so aggressiv nach vorne preschen, um ebenfalls eine bessere Balance zu gewährleisten.

Auch die Torhüter-KI soll mit dem Update dazulernen und den Ball in bestimmten Situationen nicht mehr klären, wenn er zu ihnen zurückgepasst wird. Darüber hinaus hat man auch noch diverse Änderungen am Spielmodus FIFA Ultimate Team vorgenommen, um die Duelle fairer zu gestalten.

Hier die Patch Notes im Original aus dem offiziellen FIFA Forum:

Made the following changes in Gameplay:

• After kickoff, the defending team will be more compact in defense.
  • Their attacking players will be less aggressive in pushing up the field.
  • Their defensive players will close the space between them and their attacking players to reduce the gap and limit the attacking team’s space.

• Goalkeepers unnecessarily clearing the ball when it was passed to them in certain situations.

• All matches will now take place in the FeWC Stadium, with the Time Of Day always set to Night and Weather always set to clear.
• The Pre-Match screens will no longer display which team is the Home team or Away team; instead, players will always see their team on the left side of the screen, with their opponent’s team displaying on the right side.
• You will no longer see your opponent’s kits in either gameplay or the Pre-Match screens; instead, you will see your opponent wearing your unselected Active Kit.
  • For example, if you choose to play the match in your Home kit, you will see your opponent play the match in your Away kit.
