This is not a rant, just me looking for answers.

It's up to you to figure out and decide why you think you lost a match. Bad formation, bad players, bad luck, etc. If you think you could have done something, then maybe it's players or formation or not doing a good substitution on time. If you think you did everything you could, maybe the other manager did something more than that, or maybe yes, it was bad luck. Managing isn't just about setting up the perfect plan, but overcoming the inevitable setback as well, regardless what the reason for that setback was. This is maybe the closest I could give to an official answer.

The whole thread is about the fact that that doesnt work properly. Did you realize what this is all about? WE WANT IT THAT WAY BUT IT IS NOT YET!!!!!

I'm sorry, I did not hear you with the CAPS LOCK on.

It seems to me that what the thread is about is some people wanting the game to work like this:

I have a better team, I win the match

OR

I want to understand exactly how the game works so that I can put out a winning team every time


There are a whole lot of players who aren't on the forum complaining about losing a few games or having injuries that enjoy the challenge of trying to build a squad and compete for trophies in a difficult game. I am one of those who prefers that it isn't just about buying the best players or setting up the right counter formation - although those things can help at times

You are right in that most people want to win, this is natural. I laugh my ass off at the tons of post from people who EXPECT to win because of 1) formation , 2) they buy tokens, 3) team quality is more than opponent.

But there is nothing wrong with wanting to know the ins and outs of this game down the most minute detail in order to win every game. At the end of the day, this is just a game and not cold fusion. If people want to put their effort into this and study it, so be it.

We only hear from the people who want to voice their opinions on this game. We dont hear from the many thousands (LOL) of people who have the same amount of frustration and anger and yes, even happiness. Since they arent on here, they really dont exist? (Yes the cat is both alive AND dead).

Anyways...just sayin

Colin OUT!

Schrodinger reference, love it!

The forum holds an incredible amount of info on how the game works and how to do well on it, even down to the most minute details, so I guess this is where study and experimentation can be - and is - done

All I'm saying is that however hard you study the game, there shouldn't be 'one way' to win matches or beat other tactics, and that as long as the game is the same for everyone, it being difficult and even downright frustrating at times isn't a bad thing. In some ways it's more realistic because of that

Final Note: Statistically people are several times more likely to complain about something than praise it, so the balance of posts will never be in favour of those who are happy with the game

It's why I'm trying to strike a semblance of balance here - I think Nordeus are doing a fantastic job with this game AND are working hard to make it better. Of course they will never be able to make everyone happy all the time

Its posts like that which make these threads so frustrating. So to me you didnt read the thread properly. Cant we talk here about the issues with the engine without someone telling the obvious, like you cant win them all or things like that. No one said he wants to win them all. No one said there shouldnt be bad luck. But some things are just so ridiculous, that it should be said here.
