Game engine change?

[rogerniceguy]

Lost in league v 24% weaker. Something seems different. Could just be that a defeat was a ling time coming. Now out of the way could make my team flow again.

well, random/troll/fixed results were always in the game.
But there are other, long term changes.
For example
- Almost about a year before, they tweak the engine so not to have those big scores of 15-0 or 10-0.
they still exist but only vs illegal positions, not vs abandoned 3* teams with players in a correct formation.
If your oppo is such a team, usually there is a top score of 5-0, 6-0.
If you are not watching such a game, any result is possible.
the way of fixing such results usually is with oppo GK super-performance or a very low efficiency (even if your attackers have X3 skills vs oppo defenders).

- Another change was back at November of 2017 with the new team set up.
We "lost" the red and blue arrows so the choice to give some intention to our players and the team.
Also with this free style of setting positions, we could see some "wrong" moves of our players (the AML & AMR).

What I observe lately is
- Less effect of orders
- Less effect of some special abilities.
Not that we could see them often but I think the icon/action of play-maker passing ,
the shadow striker and the corner specialist are more rare.

- Also many times I cannot explain the % of ball possession of a game.
Seems that some factors don't add to that.

Very strange results in friendly matches involving my team. I'm positive the opponents are @ 0% condition, and i'm at 60% or better. But up until a couple weeks ago, I never scored a goal as a huge underdog, it might go 0-0 to PK's but I never scored. Now it's happening frequently.

And I'm conceding more against far lower level managers.

So this last guy-friend from the Ponies (maybe having the maximum quality of the game ), won you at extra time ?
lol

Yup. Nordeus has crossed the bridge from being drunk to having alcohol poisoning.

Maybe some 'baba's' effect?

Another ridiculous draw today; in this season I've already had 6/7 games like these, opponent manager absent, bonus possession 15%, weaker opponents, but no way.



Probably something has changed in game engine? Or Nordeus wants punish teams that win too much in previous seasons?

I don't understand.

From my experience, 'losing to much 'or team performing badly after winning a lot the previous season is nothing new. In the past, my team was like 'unrecognisable' after winning a double or treble the season before - makes you asking yourself: were they the same players of the previous season, despite they were still relatively young? Some things are just bad simulations or bugs/flaws or put in deliberately to make an active manager spend more.

What are you saying @Iridensys ?
That's quite normal.

in pcmacdaniels posts, this guy is in the top of the server with a 180% q team
I know him from a TE fb group.

Results keep being strange. One game I win 6-1 vs good opponent, just to draw the game after vs 30% weaker...

But I had a similar experience a few seasons ago. Honestly, I don't mind too much, I will play a bit less this season and try not to get frustrated that much.
