Crazy Formations

[Mike McGiboney]

Thats impossible, the engine always put 11 players in the field. Team with players out of contract apered like that, but If you see the game, you Will see that the team Will have 11 players.
If the other team didnt had 11 players fit to play you would have won 3:0 without playing.

Ok well it's still BS, he has 3 gk, 1 mc and 1dc on his bench and 1 gk and 1 dc in his reserves, what did he field? It's crap. The guy who finished 2nd in my season 2 also had players missing in an awkward formation and never attended a match. His team was the only one I had a draw with all year. He beat 3rd and 4th everytime they played and they attended and had better squads. The game is flawed and punishes active players and helps teams that are abandoned and not even complete squads.

If you click on the result of the game and look at his lineup and formation you'll see that 11 players would've participated in the game. I agree though, it is BS.

Your point abou active players being punished is one I couldn't agree more with. It grinds on me tha managers who spend time training players, resting players, fine-tuning tactics and preparing as best they can get sh*t on constantly by the game engine because managers who don't bother watching or who've abandoned teams completely always end up getting results against you!

The possession bonus in my opinion is rubbish too. It should be at the MINIMUM 15% I think. If you take time to actually support your team you should be rewarded not punished.
