The ACE system that controls the A.I. of CPU-controlled defenders has taken a huge leap. You’ll notice defenders taking away passing lanes more aggressively. They may entry passes into the post a little more difficult and cutters cannot flash the lane without some recognition.
That said, the A.I. also pays attention to the defender’s awareness rating and whether they’re looking at the ball. If a defender’s head is turned, he will not react on a play until he is looking at the action.
