This football sucks

[Gert Funck]

Striker or wing dribbles past every thing, no defender or keeper in the little box...only two attackers of yours...
instead of running it in goal he makes a none forward pass to the two players in the box..
... offside... !

[nikolgiorgos]

ok, another thing
my attacker has the ball and a defender chases him.
He 's moving forward in oppo posts.
Arriving in the goal posts area and keep running.
He 's passing the penalties spot and keep running.
He 's in front of gk and keep running.
And then he lost the ball (gk saves - throw away the ball)


if i remember well, this wasn't happening so frequently from the beginning of the "lives".
Or am i wrong

stop and shot idiot

Wish I had this one on video, it was hilarious.

DC, just inside opposition half, long-ish ball up to DL, who is racing for the opposition penalty box.
DL passes back to DC (in the same place that he made previous pass).
DC passes up to DL (who is now stationary just outside penalty box).
DL passes back to DC.
DC passes up to DL.
DL passes back to DC.
DC passes up to DL, who then smashes it past the keeper for a goal...

Just what were the other players doing?

There is an option to turn off "live match" simulation in the settings. I wonder if turning off "live match" simulation will make things go back to normal as in make strikers score goals again and prevent those funny things from happening.

Strikers were not performing to spec before the Live Match was introduced.

LOL i saw the opposite shoot to my side from his own box~ and my GK ran out his box to get the ball and kick the ball back to the opposite half.... i saw 3 times since last season...... and you will see the GK always funny moving around....

Today a clip went like this —
We had the ball and after two passes it went to the opposition. They kept pushing, till a defender of ours got it. He kicked the ball in the opposite half (these swift counters are guaranteed goals), where the right winger got it and passed it to the Amc, who entered the box from the right and 1v1 with keeper. But instead of shooting, he passed it back to Amr, who gave it to st in the middle of the box. He dribbled and passed it to the dr at the edge of the box who slammed in the goal. Gave some entertainment to our fans, but couldn't the amc finish it by themselves? Or even only 1 pass, which happens mostly. 3 is overkill.

well, the general picture of the Live game isn't that bad, it's only some scenes that it's impossible to see them in a real football game
(except maybe in some games like Germany-Austria World Cup 1982, or Denmark-Sweden Euro 2004 )

* turning off can't help the Strikers issue. This also happening if playing only with the old version too.

My favourite is the shot outside the box to a gk save/deflection to the same player who then shoots again and scores.

ah, time for a little update here

- my F-K specialist shots with a super curve, oppo GK simply catches the ball - lol
I don't remember the last time I watched that in a real game.
Usually oppo GK hardly manage to throw out the ball (to a corner kick)

- Almost all the players (oppo and mine) are in my area, my defender stop oppo and giving the ball to a single player I have, near the middle of the field. There is only one oppo player, few meters away.
I 'm thinking, ok, time to go for a counter attack, sure it's a goal now.
And then the scene stops

- My player is very near in the corner area, oppo defender makes a fault and gets a yellow card
After that I have a F-K which looks like a C-K. But wth a defender making such a bad tackling near in the corner

- My specialist (6* player) kicks the ball from the corner, I can see the sign of his sa that is working, but he 's sending the ball in an area with only oppo defenders

Some good new things
- A very long shot from my player (usually a AM). Cool !

- When my attacker (usually a AM) slides left or right from oppo GK and scores

- Some times, the players are moving very fast, making successful passes.
