A few minutes ago EA Sports announced the release of the first title update for FIFA 17 which addresses the following:

Gameplay

• A situation where cancel was unresponsive after requesting a clearance.
• A rare situation where the penalty shootout should have ended earlier.
• Increased the CPU AI tendency to attack directly.
• An issue where players sometimes overrun the ball after a skill move.
• Increased the chance of error from ground crosses (triple tap).
• Improvements to ball physics where shots off the goal posts lose too much speed.
• Goalkeeper positioning for corner kicks.
• Improvements made to player switching from corners and free kicks.
• An issue where the player would control the ball instead of attempting a clearance.
• Improvements to contested headers logic from corner kicks.
• General fixes for player controlled celebrations.
• Cut scene for contentious fouls can now be skipped.
• Improved the general responsiveness of shooting.
• Minor improvement to passing responsiveness when the ball is in the air.

Pro Clubs

• Increased experience required for the higher overall ratings in Pro Clubs. *
• Addressed an issue where a player’s customised facial features did not display properly in game.

• The goalkeeper now correctly celebrates after catching the final penalty in a shootout.
