I think ALL who put together Patchs for 2002 should be congratulated for making 2002 more enjoyable. But , There is always a "But" !!
Control of players outwith their areas, ie Defenders in Midfield and so on. I have experienced lots of incidents where a player close to a loose ball will not highlight and come under myr control.
The pitch seems to be divided into if you like 3 areas Defence Midfield Attack. The other night during a game there was a loose ball in the Attcking 3rd. My two strikers were at the edge of the box with there backs to this ball, one of my strikers control Icon was highlighted. I had a midfield player closer to the ball so I pressed my "Change Control Button" to highlight the midfielder , all that happened was control jumped between my two forwards. This has happened in other areas of the pitch , during the game I ran one of my forwards at a defender and blocked his clearance the ball ran out to the wing about 30yrds from goal. My forward was still highlight , the defender started to move to the loose ball as did my wingback who came over the halfway line, I tried to change control from my forward to my wingback as he was closer to the ball but it would not change, his Icon just flickered slightly. Yards from the ball he just stopped and turned around and ran back into his own half of the pitch. Can this be fixed or is the game to flawed??? One old game I had ( can't remember the name of it ) you had the option to change the area a player could move into , these areas were highlighted in the formattion screen the default was :- split into 3rds Defence Midfield Attack .. but you could move the defence area to cover from goalline to goalline and same with mid field and the forwards area could be pulled all the way back to your own goalline. This then stopped players turning back away from loose balls or not highlighting as their area was now all of the pitch , not just a 3rd be it Defence Midfield or Attack. What it looks like in Fifa these 3rds are ridgid and as a ball passes between them players turn away or as I have seen not Highlight even though they are quite close to the ball. If this is the case , is there anyway to change it ???
