Legendary, 10 Minutes and latest OS Slider but changed Acceleration to 49/GK Ablity to 20 as Paul said.

My recent nightlys have decreased the GK ability and improves scoring ability quite substantially. It may be time to increase the GK Ability slider. Not sure at the moment. This is why I separated out nightly from main releases. Use at your own risk and all that!

Im using version 1 ini along with the awesomegems latests career mode mod. Finally the game is surperb and a challenge. Itsbalmost too hard!!! I delete the mods and reinstall them before I play. It only takes five minutes. I have found that fifa 18(16 was same) will reset itself randomly. So far for last week or so the game has been excellent.
I have cpu shot accuracy at 25 or they never score. Passing is at 37 or they cant pass a ball. Shot power is at 75! FB running is at 85. I have never had such bizarre sliders but they work for me. I expect EA will make a mess of this when the world cup update comes.
They are such control freaks

My latest Nightly 2018-05-19 has balanced the game a little and stops the AI obsession with wingers cutback at the byline, so a lot more crosses happen now. Still trying to fix the overpowered shooting. Only option is to decrease shot accuracy through sliders for now.

Why when the opponent/cpu sprint they always like -sprint-stop a little-sprint again-stop a little again?

Normally with my gameplay patch(which is a combination of your non-nightly version and beta's gameplay patch) I can easily win against Real Madrid and Barcelona and go on the whole season undefeated. The first match with your gameplay patch and I got tore apart by Real Madrid with good players standing out and good pressing from CPU. The last nightly version is the hardest and most enjoyable one for FIFA 17. Haven't tried it yet on FIFA 18.

Thanks Paul. I am using this ini along with the latest v2k4 Career Mod. Its made a massive difference. Finally have put the fb runs back to 50 from 85. I have only played one game, a replayed game from an ealier career save and the game is entirely different and much more sensible. The gameplay could be bizarre with the slider on 85 for both teams but it was the only way to make it a challenge. I shall be giving the new mods a thorough later.
Thanks again

The patch makes for brilliant games. However there is an issue with team fatigue levels. They go down much faster than the cpu. this makes winning in the latter stages of the wc to be virtually impossible. Is there a way to change these fatigue levels so they dont drain as quickly?

I've noticed the same thing. It has nothing to do with me and must be caused by the latest update by EA. Sorry.

Ah, the finishing (strikers are a mess) is my fault. To remove this part of the patch delete the following lines. Found at the bottom of the ini file.

SHOT_ATTRIBUTE_FINISHING = -7
PASS_ATTRIBUTE_CROSSING = -7
SKILLS_FINISHING = 1.0
FINISHING = 1.0

Thanks paul. Your mod and ini are brilliant. The game is very difficult now. Regarding the fatigue. It only seems to effect the wrold cup mode, career mode seems fine. Gameplay in career mode is also much better now.
Thanks again. I am going to slightly ease off on the cpu sliders as they are almost impossible to beat sometimes. Then again too hard is way better than too easy.

Paul could i ask what the difference between the various locale.ini files. I am using v2k4 Gameplay Mod - Version 1 from the wc update file. How does nightly for example differ in the wc update.
I prefer an FAst, aggressive, more direct english style of game with plenty of shots rather than the slow european 40 passes to get to the halfway line style.
Thanks

Hi @elwoodpdowd,

No problem.

I know a lot of people have stuck to Version 1 and its a nice quick change without affecting the game too much.

Version 2 made the game much more direct and made players run down the wings (in some style too!). Version 2, in my opinion, is much more exciting than my Nightly 2018-06-03 as the AI is much more willing to run with the ball. The only problem is that there is a hesitation bug (the player will run with the ball and stop then continue to run again) in V2. I can live with it, some others can not as it doesn't "look" right.

2018-06-03, was a first attempt to fix the bug as I knew it came from the Objective strings but in my opinion, i liked the wing play in V2, so I think it will need some more nightlies before its back to something great.

Thanks Paul. I tried the new nighly and didnt like the playing style so i have gone back to version 1 latest update.
The problem with the fatigue is making playing wc18 a major problem. Is this a bug within the game itself or within the mod. If its the latter, EA aren't exactly given to acknowledging bugs let alone fixing them. I suspect that their prority also is with console rather than PC

Hey gem everything is working fine for me, but i'm having the stamina problem also, you found the line(s) causing this?
Click to expand...

It's one of these lines that's causing the stamina/fatigue issue:

Code: 
AI_USE_ATTRIBULATOR_TO_UPDATE_GENERIC_CONVERT_TBL = 0
OVERWRITE_ATTRIBUTES = 0
DISABLE_NEUTRAL_BANTER_THRESHOLD = 1
DB_FATIGUE = 100

Remove those 3 lines fixed the stamina issue for me.
