So I was like 11 years old, my parents got a divorce. We had a dog; golden retriever, and during this period one day the dog was just gone. My dad told us that the dog ran away; we lived outside of town with some fields and barns and shit so maybe run of to some farmer or whateva.

After watching Long Term Parking I know: Silvio took our dog in his car and shot him and buried him in the woods. God bless my dog, could have been in witness protection. It’s sad when they go young like that.

I have read a lot of of posts on the update, nice to see different views and to learn from them.

I think we’re sometimes focusing too much on recreating old tactics with Fluid Formations. Realistically, you probably only need to move 1–3 key players between attacking and defensive shapes. almost exactly the number of individual instructions we used before.

Gullit moving from CMF to AMF/SS can already create a completely different threat, while a Hole Player moving CMF to AMF keeps his playstyle active. And you don’t have to move Cafu to RMF: leave him at RB and his Offensive Full-back style can still provide the attacking movement.

Yes, Konami will undoubtedly use this to sell versatile cards with complementary attacking/defensive styles. But existing versatile players may actually become more valuable, not obsolete. More importantly, Fluid Formations could break some of the old meta: instead of everyone using the same formation + instructions, we can create genuinely different shapes in and out of possession.

Maybe we shouldn’t judge Fluid Formations by how well they recreate the old meta, but by how many new tactical options they create.

What do you think?

I am looking forward to efootball 27 but hope they fix these buts, but probably they won’t. Such a shame because they seem quite easy to fix. Still trying to be hopeful. Maybe I am missing some big examples?

🟨 heavy challenge which is a yellow card but when a goal is scored this is simply not given

🔛 when for example there is a foul but you advantage and go on to have a big chance the ref calls for a foul. No advantage, bye bye to a big chance to score.

🔃 player switch is just a bit too slow when using right stick (console)

❌ defender ignores loose ball, no real movement towards it

💥 player collisions are still not really realistic, stumbling over each other.

⚽️ Some balls still go through a player’s legs, even though they should block it

🤷‍♂️ Opponent can come as close as possible on my corner, but I can’t. Still weird

Just a new season and it is terrible again. Everything is slow. Also saw some other posts about it. It is unplayable again. I am just taking a rest.

I am advising everyone to do so. Why? Otherwise Konami Will never feel any pain on having these terrible servers. How can anyone play with this lag man? Fml

Whatever skill you have us fine. Good matchmaking and losing, fine. But not be Able to move with this manual defending shit since 5.5 is so bad. Give me a fair chance Konami, give good connection and let me play a NORMAL game. That is all.

When the last Gullit was in a pack we saw him wearing the Dutch ‘88 kit. Looked great, would get that in an instance for Nostalgia. How come that Konami does not offer that; is that a license that is difficult to get, or just to expensive?

People would buy those old Dutch, Brazil, German, France etc kits is my assumption. Also great to use them during the World cup.

I have tried to use Low Screamer more the last couple of weeks. I know Blitz Curler is buffed but it still hits the bar quite often. Low Screamer feels like a skill that is on the same level; it needs a good feeling for movement and space. But low Screamer is really fun and realistic; for me more realistic than Blitz.

What do you think is another great skill; Maybe Momentum Dribbling still, or is it Magnetic feet now?

Have been thinking about this a lot lately.

In real football, players like Rodri, Busquets, Fabian Ruiz, Kroos etc. aren’t fast or flashy, but they constantly position themselves intelligently before the danger even happens. They scan, move into passing lanes, create angles and make themselves available automatically.

But now even high IQ midfielders often feel static unless you manually trigger them yourself.

Shouldn’t elite players with high awareness/offensive awareness/tight possession:

- naturally drift into space more?

- offer passing triangles automatically?

- reposition based on pressure?

- support buildup smarter without constant manual input?

Sometimes it feels like pace and acceleration influence the game more than football intelligence does.

Do you think they should improve AI positioning and off-ball intelligence for technical players?
