Need a reasonable reply from Nordeus about my first Cup match. It's weid :(

[cracicot]

1-7 here is a load of ****. This kind of happened to me yesterday in my cup game I lost 1-5 against slightly stronger (3Q) opposition. Yes I don't mind losing, because we all lose but the losing margin here is just a total load of bollocks from the GE

If you were to lose here then a score like 0-2 or 1-3 should of been the score, not 1-7.

Exactly. Losing is part of the game, but sometimes the results just dont make any sense.

Nordeus, a little tuning of the NGE is called for. People are crying out for this and you give no acknowledgement that you hear us.

Thanks for your sympathy, and goog luck to you at the 2nd leg. I'll kill him tonight (away) to show my squad's quality with the same formation using at 1st leg. Also dream about the result 7-0 for me :v

Guys, these things happen in real life.

If you remember 'grey shirt gate' when Manchester United got pummeled 6-1 (might have been 6-2) by Southampton during one of the early Premier League years?

How about 4/5 seasons ago when Portsmouth beat Reading in the Premier League 7-4!!!

Then there's the Sheffield Weds humiliation, losing 8-0!!!!! against Newcastle.

It happens. The game engine will have it written in, it might have been a 1-2000 change that the outcome would be this huge, but the fact is, the odds are there.

Southampton 6-3 Man Utd. 1996, The Grey kits were dispatched at HT and man utd came out wearing blue+white for the second half. lol great game, classic.

lmao i won home cup game 1-0.
away, winning 3-1 with 30min in the tie to go.
his quality was about 3-4 less than me so i was expecting the win anyway. I watched the game and had 15% possession for both home and away. he didnt watch either game.

He scored 5 goals in the last 30 min...

final score: 6-3. overall cup: 6-4

Ha ha, ok, perhaps I slightly exaggerated, but you get my drift :-).

As for 5 goals in the last 30 - i'd love to see a screenie of that.... I could point out games where over 5 goals have been scored in the last 30 mins though (Sheff U 3-0 up at half time against brighton, Brighton went 4-3 up, then Sheff U scored 2 and won 5-4).

aah Matt Le Tissier, now he could play!!!

Stop talking about tactics because it not exist such thing ... is how the game wants to end .
i saw many cup games with :
1` minute yellow and injured player
two yellow to same man in few minutes
injured players with out reason/foul
and match ends with really unrealistic score ...

Of course it is, the GE knows the outcome of the game before it's even started. It just takes all the input parameters (tactics, quality, possession) and throws them into a score matrix based on these parameters. Where there will be a possibility of all numbers of outcomes (perhaps up to 9-0 for each side) will be present.

From then it's just a random number generator that pics an entry in the matrix.

This is how most GE's work anyway.

If you're going to just blame Nordeus, you might aswell blame all randomly generated games, because they all use the same philosophy. I've played FM13 where Arsenal Lost 6-1 at Barca, then won the return leg 9-0.
