It's not our job to do SI's testing for them. That should have been done before the patch was released. Especially as the game auto-updates on Steam. They turn over a lot of revenue from us and should be able to spot an overflow bug without our input.
I can't be bothered to send SI data. And I don't see why I should. I have other stuff to do, other games which I can play until they fix it. ****, I might even go outside in the sunshine and talk to girls. (Not really.) You can't seriously argue that if people aren't reporting the problem it doesn't exist - most people who spend £30 on the retail release of a game are like me, if a game is made unplayable they'll go do something else. Telling SI about it is what the beta testers should have been doing. Were there any?
Since the injury bug was released, I have had my entire team decimated to the point where I can't field a first XI of senior players. And even more glaringly, once the overflow bug kicks in, players with the 'injury prone' attribute get injured literally every single match - in real life someone that injury prone could simply not have a career as a professional footballer. And there are enough people experiencing the same thing that it's way past the point at which you can blame bad luck.
