Game engine

I prefer the word 'upset' like in real football. The game's engine is programmed to purposely give these results now and again. Otherwise if the stronger team won all the time it would be unrealistic and off putting to weaker teams.

so weaker teams winning more often than "usual" is realistic? Marc, lets get downto brass tacks here. it would be best to define what is usual or expected. out of 100 games, how many times in real life would you say that a serious underdog wins? if we can find middle ground between us, at least we agree on how to judge things.

I played 26 league games and lost none! - Therefore from my experience weaker teams do not win very often. BUT this is a game and of course the chances of the under dog winning are going to be increased, again if the underdog won as little as in real life weaker teams would lose interest.

this isnt about weaker teams losing interest. this is about winning. this is a game and people want to win every game unless you tank of course. that aside, give me a number out of 100 that an underdog team in the EPL should win. then out of 100 for la liga, then 100 out of bundesliga.

those 3 should give a fair average and then I will add mine, and we will get a few other voluteers to give us their numbers, first 3 to respond and that gives us 5 sets of numbers to average. then we can compare results a bit easier knowing what we think are troll results with a few more items. but this first

Personally i think people need to get over it and stop moaning. It happens every now and again (per person) its not worth crying about! - I would much prefer these 'Troll' results now and again. It keeps stronger teams on there toes.

Plus answer me this: If there are SO MANY upsets where weaker teams beat stronger teams why do you tank?? surly there is no need to tank if weak temas are beating token buyers as much as you say??

lol at people comparing this game to real life. This game does anything but simulate to real life situations. Is a 5* defender outrunning an entire 7* defence common in real life football? If they were reading a magazine then that would happen. Obviously there are times when the far weaker team wins but it's happening far too often in this game that it's causing people to quit.
