EA Sports has announced the release of the second title update for FIFA 19. Some bugs will be fixed.
At this point, the update comes: On PC, the second update will be available from October 23. On PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, players can access the patch from Friday, October 26.
This is changing in gameplay:
- Trick shots adjusted: Among other things, bicycle kicks, side volleys, and other trick shots have been adjusted. These were used by players who were not actually capable of performing them in unusual situations. The accuracy of trick shots has also been reduced. Here is the comparison before and after the update.
- Dynamic tactics: It is now possible to make adjustments to the match plan even during a game and to modify dynamic tactics. Player substitutions should also be better accepted during tactical changes.
- Improved goalkeepers: Several goalkeeper errors have been fixed. There were instances where your keeper did not catch the ball. Also, unintended, meaningless jumps in random directions have been eliminated. Also important: Fixing errors during goal kicks.
This is what it looks like after the update:
This is changing in Ultimate Team:
- Division Rivals: On the opponent screen before the match, the founding date and club name of your opponent in Division Rivals will no longer be displayed. Exception: If you select “Show members”, you can still see the name. This will be adjusted in an upcoming update. This is what the new screen looks like:
- Audio adjustments: Several players complained that distracting audio files were played during the game (for example, menu music). This bug has also been fixed.
