Out of Champs league lost 2-1 home & away against 3W-1-3W-1-2 similar quality although I am slightly better, but just can't seem to play this formation, 1st leg played 3N-5-2 and 2nd leg played 4-1-3N-2 FFS
Just played a match against an opponent with matching skills. He played 4-4-1-1 and so I countered with 3-2(DM)-4-1, playing defensive mentality and force counter-attacks. Wanna know what happened? According to the comments, HE GOT A COUNTER-ATTACK EVERY 5 MINUTES AND I GOT 2 FOR THE WHOLE MATCH!
I am not complaining that I lost - I didn't even say that I lost, although I did. But credit for that is given to the crappy game engine as if you look at the two teams, formations and tactics (yeah, I don't know his tactics, but still ...) then the only expected outcome of that match would've been a draw or a minimal win for either of the teams. And that's with no more than goal by a team scored in each of the cases. The 3:0 loss that I suffered are far detatched from any football logics.
Still, that wasn't my point - my post was mainly about the team instructions. How can you play a defensive game, relying on counter-attacks, where your players are supposed to stay in their half, and yet the other team gets 20 counter-attacks and you get 2?
I know that the comments are put there for entertainment purposes and that they don't mean ****, but seriously - this was way out of line.
But since you started it - if formations and tactics don't influence the result, then what the hell does? Pure randomness?
just to know : the comments show you how often you shot on the target and how many occasion you/opponent have during the match , i do watch what is the "commentator" says about the match so i change tactic from defensive to offensive ... etc.
nah, i am too lazy for that :) + its unpredictable at all. i am sure everyone can come up with an example countering what other people say. its just ridiculous to think there is a formation that garantied you good result. imagine this: u are playing vs opponent with DL-DC-DR and you putting 3 STR against his only DC. then u lose and wondering HOW the F**K :) other people easily can say: "he is controling the centre with his 4 players there vs ur 3" :) and then starts other examples ;)
its relatively simple though, if your better than them attack where they are weak and if theyre better than you match up with them. Really no need for all the "how do i counter" threads. I was taking stick for playing wide diamond against narrow diamond the other day, if im better than my opponent it makes sense to play it that way, Plus it works
Formations don't matter otherwise people will learn the winning ones and will not buy tokens anymore. Nordeus wouldn't want that to happen, no? It's not about how you play this game is about how this game plays you.
I have 2 teams.I invest in one of them a lot and I have injuries all the time.The other one, I start investing just after 22 matches.Immediately after I bought the first tokens, I start having injuries almost every day(only one till that moment).In my opinion, the more you invest, the more injuries you have.It's a good idea from business point of view, but it's definitely not fair.I love football and I like T11(around €100 in the last 3 weeks invested in tokens) but if this issue goes on in the same direction, I will quit.
Stop playing so many games! If you keep playing friendlies, your players will have less chance to get injured. Of course the friendlies are good for collecting packs and improving players, but they're clearly tired. I say this as someone who trains the players instead - I still get injuries of course, but I kind of expect that
Also, this thing about more injuries when you buy tokens is silly. I got fewer tokens this season than last, but easily treble the number of injuries - it's a generic engine tweak
Haven't been on the VT for a while, so funny to come on occasionally and see the various 'the game punishes token buyers/the game helps token buyers' comments
It's the same, good and bad, for everyone
I love the noobs giving it all the big man. ;)
Simon, you know where I stand on this and CarlTaut says it quite well. You and I have only been here 2 months. I have gut feelings based on what I have seen and heard. But I dont profess to know that its the same for everyone. This forum is but a small fraction of the players and it would be a bit wrong for you to assume that it is the same for everyone. There has been some pretty shady stuff last year and I want to know more about it, but i think it was in the old forum and now gone and not accessible.
Regardless, all I ask is that you be open-minded to the possibility that there are things going on that you, I, we dont know about.
The game sort of changes as you lvl up to 7-8 and above .
I agree with Injuries problem . Tough it happend to me after i upgraded my med facilitates , more injuries have started occurring , 4-5 players are always injured at any time during the league.
Last game of the season and 3 injuries - 4,6 and 6 days respectively :(
Totaly shocked- login to my team and find 5 new players in my team.. all 33-34 years. Where the hell do they come from? I don't need them but cannot sell them. What should i do with those grandpas?
I think this is because the system think that your team is abandoned, so they have to add some placeholder players to fit your position in your team, which they are from the senior football centre of your server...
Also, please show your team lineup (switch to "Contract details" to see player ages, and I may help you...
**** sake you make more assumptions than anyone! You see what you want and you see people on here moan about ****, folk are hardly gonna start threads like "why i no get no injuries for 4 days". Im the same level as you and ive about 10 mates on the same level, varied amounts of tokens ranging from 0-1000(s). We all say the same thing, injuries are a mother****er. One thing that has been noticed is that they seem to get worse towards the end of the season.
I agree that nordeus hammer us with injuries but i do not believe they are biased about it! Game engine hasnt done any of us over either btw lol
Dude, the way Nordeus hammers us with token suckage, its not hard to believe that they up the ante when you have more tokens or red packs. I know that all injuries and **** are random. but sometimes it just looks like the randomness is a bit less random at times. Just sayin.
Well i'm with my team everyday plus i won my league 6 , so there is no chance that my team would be abandoned. Can't post my contract details- i'm on android, but theres no problem with my lineup. So just bull**** again from nordeus... besides paid for tokens today and did not receive them... a lit dissapointing, cause needed some more strong scouts before cup match and got ****ed by nordeus again... paid 100$ at 9:00, match was 12:17, reported at 10-30 and the report is still pending as to be administered.... this is really my last season with t11
Now is 20:30
At this point I'm convinced this game has bid bots. I just got outbidded by someone through 7 rounds. And every time I placed a bit, he bid a millisecond later or so. So I just wasted the rest of my coins for a 27 year old 3 star quality MR. Which to say he did not need a all. Looking at his team, he already has a MR of better quality and stacked with midfielders on the bench.
Let me remind you again. The player up for auction was 3 stars and this dude was relentless to get him for no reason whatsoever and matched me bid for bid so there was nothing I can do. Now I'm screwed into a condensed formation this next match because the guy will know to counter my 4-3-1-2 with wingers. WHAT THE HELL!
How else am I suppose to get players then? And there no way I'm going to buy tokens just to train my players into a new position. Please someone sound the bull**** alarm.
Just don't bid in the first few days and you will live longer. =)
not bid bots but ghost accounts.
I agree with you that Nordeus is so hungry for token wastage that they have people pumping up the bids so people will waste tokens.
Is that so outlandish considering they have the injuries happening at such a high rate and they schedule games 5 mins after another?
Greed...pure greed on Nordeus's part.
1. A bit disappointed after being K.O by the team with nearly the same quality. Bad and unacceptable result by the NGE is a trap for every absent coachs.
2. Being tired of sending and sending claims for tokens from offers that I've really completed. 98% of those is no token rewarded. My PC and smartphone are full of malwares and virus after installing games and softwares.
What is funny is that there has to be some explanation for these things. For some of these people in this forum, this is blasphemous conspiracy talk and they try to pass it off as "this is how the game works so just deal with it"
I find it very strange that there is not more outcry when it is so ****ing obvious that the game is geared towards sucking as much money as they can out of you, and these people just bend over and take it. Of course they have no choice in the matter, but then they give them money for this, just so they can win.
The whole point is this: if you are happy to "donate" to nordeus for tokens, then you obviously dont give a **** about the token suckage aspect of the game because you can just buy more tokens. Easy for you, but it makes the game all that more difficult for the non-token buyer.
We all complain about the price of gas, but the people with expensive cars dont complain about it because it is not an issue for them. They buy premium gas because their car requires it but they dont care because its a drop in the well, so to speak. Yes, Nordeus is being equated with greedy petrol companies, because, surprise surprise, they exploit everyone because you need them. Well you need tokens to do anything in this game. Same ****.
If we are going to pay for this game, at least Nordeus can ease up on the token suckage and make it a bit less obvious. They make enough money without increasing the injuries and durations. Drop the reschedule fee to 1 token. Make the red packs a bit less expensive. It is just a bit too unbalanced and they need to find the equalibrium.
The cup has become a waste of time. Don't even bother fielding a legal formation, because whoever gives the Nordeus staff the best head wins.
whats with all the ****ty scouts?
havent had a single scout ending on 4/9 for ages now
and the second highest ones are crappy 28/29 year olds
there is always only one 22 and 23 year old and they always have the lowest quality
i would be willing to spend 50 tokens but there have to be better scouts
