same here really, its just a visual thing that my players might have half a star suitability for the role, but they still play well,
what about the right striker that does the man marking? does any get lower ratings from him as i do?
It's a problem mainly with the right and left midfielder positions in the game. Usually these players have the more advanced attacking midfielder roles as their naturals so you have to train them for a while in the more withdrawn roles for them to be fully "greened out".

Practically there is little difference and players like Thuavin and Coutinho will start out as 4/10 rated but can get 8/10 average ratings over a season and barely improve rating wise. The ratings are misleading and if you know the actual roles of each position you can make a better judgement yourself than the in game staff.

that's just the most important changes. there will be loads of smaller things that they've changed in the ME which could potentially effect a tactic. guess we'll have to wait and see.
 
Doesn't look like any ME changes to me

Yes, there are no ME changes in 16.3.

But I like to see that there are some other improvements, for example, it looks that now it's become possible to train a new position again so soon I'll update the filters and the individual training to reflect this change. Speaking other words, now you can buy players for some position even if they don’t have Accomplished/Natural rating for it and then train them to improve their rating for this position.

Same issue, I signed Halilovic to play RM, he has been superb but after two seasons starting almost every game and training that position still only competent. Hopefully it is back to the way it used to work.
 
yes there are Match Engine changes on the new patch!

There are 5 ME changes and they aren't significant at all. :)

MATCH ENGINE
- Stop keepers punching the ball when making a save from a penalty
- Prevent a player from taking a throw in from behind the goal line
- Give more time at the end of the match when a team wins a competition
- Fixed missing commentary for competition win at the end of a shootout
- Fixed throw in issue which caused dead time

Will 16.2 tactics still work

CONFIRMED by SI MOD - No significant ME changes have been made, so theoretically yes. However, the game world is dynamic so all "good" tactics have the capacity to become less effective as each match is different.
 
Every patch SI say no match engine changes, or minimal changes yet 90% of tactic that were awesome go to s**t. That's why i put Steam in offline mode for a while ;)

Good news on this front I haven't even played a week since the update and Halilovic is now accomplished!
