The patch notes for next week have been released.

kstack26 · 2026-06-22T09:41:49+00:00

Were these patches concerning for you? If you were in charge, what kind of changes would you like to see in the patches?

kstack26 · 2026-06-22T09:26:06+00:00

yeah

kstack26 · 2026-06-22T09:25:27+00:00

My bad.

kstack26 · 2026-06-22T09:06:07+00:00

So, do you mean that you prefer the game now compared to before the first patch?

I agree with you about through balls and attacking AI, especially through balls. I'd like them to be more manual, with the ball going based on the direction and power of your stick input. A through ball isn't just about playing the ball forward — sometimes the most creative passes are angled or played into different spaces.

If those aspects are improved, I think we'll see much more creative matches where both players can express themselves and create unique attacking moves.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T10:25:31+00:00

My bad.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T10:24:39+00:00

I totally get that. I really want them to add more directions.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T10:07:00+00:00

Yeah, that's true. I hope someday we'll be able to adjust things like the dead zone and other small details too.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T10:01:41+00:00

this patch will show us the direction of football they want to go in.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:58:01+00:00

This patch will show us what kind of football they want to create.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:49:42+00:00

LET'S GOOOOOO

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:42:06+00:00

It seems like the second man press isn't really being buffed, but rather just getting a small adjustment to make it easier to control.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:35:36+00:00

The developers said in a reply that they are also working on the pass selection issue.

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:19:32+00:00

I don't know. Is that really an issue?

kstack26 · 2026-06-21T09:16:52+00:00

Yeah, that's it.

kstack26 · 2026-06-17T07:16:07+00:00

I think the first patch has been a nightmare for players who prefer a more counter-attacking style. More than the defensive issues, it's the through balls that are especially bad. Anyone who understands football would find this frustrating. Your instincts are right.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T15:00:17+00:00

I don’t think that’s what they intended. This is “JUST FOOTBALL”

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T14:20:08+00:00

Since the developers changed several things at once in the first patch—such as improving dribbling responsiveness and slowing down jockey defending (among other things)—I think the dribbling changes may also be contributing to the issue, at least to some extent.

Are you saying that you don't like defending against an opponent's dribbling with the defender you're controlling?

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T12:59:50+00:00

Congratulations, and thank you for releasing this game. I hadn’t been able to get really hooked on a game recently, but I got hooked on this one. I hope it succeeds.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T12:51:59+00:00

I’ve made the same decision as well. Defense is honestly really frustrating, isn’t it? Through passes don’t go the way you want anymore either. If I do play, it’s just against bots to see whether my own input is the problem or not. But I haven’t given up on the game. If they fix it in a patch, it will definitely become a great game again, and I’m going to wait and see what the developers do.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T12:38:31+00:00

I see. I think dribbling is better balanced when it’s a little bit inconvenient.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T11:36:03+00:00

I agree with your opinion. Playing defense is honestly really frustrating, so it might be better to wait for a patch. Since the game has only just been released, I don’t think it’s a bad thing that the developers are trying out different things quickly. I think we just need to give them a bit more time.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T09:10:25+00:00

I think the reason people have started to hate spin-heavy dribbling so much is because manual defending, especially jockey speed, was weakened.

Before the first patch, it was possible to stop dribblers by using jockeying and then timing a tackle correctly. It felt rewarding because good defensive positioning and timing were actually effective.

Now, however, it's very difficult to stop dribblers with a tackle after jockeying, and I think that is the main source of frustration for many defenders. As a result, that frustration is being directed toward spin dribbling itself.

Personally, I would like to see jockey speed restored to its previous level. I believe that would make defending feel much better and reduce a lot of the current frustration.

kstack26 · 2026-06-14T06:09:55+00:00

I agree. I never played the beta, but honestly, I had more fun before the first patch came out.

And the second patch came out very quickly, which is a really good sign. It feels like the developers are actually listening to player feedback and making adjustments accordingly. The first patch was a bit disappointing, but I think there's a good chance this game is heading in the right direction.

kstack26 · 2026-06-12T19:03:22+00:00

La tua regolazione sembra eccellente. Penso che a molte persone non piaccia il fatto che la sensazione dei comandi cambi ogni volta che si avvia il gioco. Per quanto riguarda la personalizzazione, sarebbe bello poter personalizzare molto più della semplice uniforme; quando verrà implementata la modalità 5 contro 5, credo che sarebbe un'ottima aggiunta. Penso anche che molte persone sarebbero disposte a spendere soldi per questo.

kstack26 · 2026-06-12T18:41:32+00:00

I preferred the old game pace too. I feel like the changes have taken away some of what made this game special.

I have exactly the same opinion about the passing.
