Yea but 90% of ppl will buy the vanilla game and dislike it because most ppl don't want to do anything to extra to play a game. Video game reviewers don't download any add-ons or mods before reviewing a game. And playing with Christiano Tonaldo and Rigar Cassolas would be completely retarded for immersion.

OK, fine. Have it your way. Can we go back to my problem? It seems you're more interested in defending SI than solving an actual issue...
At least WJ was going somewhere here...

I'm defending SI b/c you think the game is scripted to work against you in your particular save lolol.

And I already told you mediafire.

Thanks for being more constructive than the previous answers. I don't think the game is scripted, but there's clearly something wrong with the match engine

And I already asked WJ if I can post external links. I don't want to discuss this with you anymore, MisterBurkes. I'm alergic to fanboys, sorry.

Why don't you read the forum rules which you are supposed to read before you register? Or use your brain since there are so many mediafire and youtube links everywhere on this site.

I have to ask...is the Match Engine broken or is the game simply scripted? I've always defended this game against the 2nd accusation but I'm starting to have my doubts.

*cough*

Keyword is "doubts". That was an older post too. Dude, get off my case. You're not helping me, you are just acting like a spoiled fan boy. Jesus Christ, are you for real?

WJ, my save game and tactic are uploading, as soon as you give me a sign I'll PM it to you. I'm not posting here anymore, the SI Police is everywhere.

I just find it hilarious that you need someone else to beat a match for you...and for what? If WJ beats it on his first try, that does not prove or disprove that the ME is broken/working or that the game is scripted/non-scripted. If you actually want to collect data, you not only need to make the save public, but ideally you get lots of players to try it and post their results.

** Before you read this post, I am NOT accusing anyone of piracy, I am just making a potential observation **

I have noticed that several people that have been banned from this site for using a pirated game have been having real problems with the game. Perhaps SI have been really clever and broke the game on purpose for people who have pirated it? I remember loads of people complaining about being sacked on one of the Fifa manager game after one season and it turns out they purposely programmed it to do that.

Again im not accusing anybody, in just posting something I have noticed, as it seems some people have loads of issues, while others have dont seem to notice it as much.

Wouldn't be unheard of, definitely. Could the "breaking" affect unpirated games too?
But I don't think that's the case. If it was, they would let the pirate know what's going on, so he would buy the game instead of giving bad publicity. At least that's what happens in games that I know with that mechanism (Game Dev Tycoon, I think).

Thanks. Like I told Tatoon, I'm no guru, but I would be able to tell if anything is seriously wrong.

Actually Game Dev Tycoon is one of the few games that actually tells the player that it's detected a pirated copy. Some anti-piracy examples that I've read about:
Dominions 3/4 basically screws your save after you are 30(?) turns in (several hours in), and Arma 2 nerfed all the graphics settings and started lagging your computer after 1 hour.

I still think you lost reloads 20 in a row because your tactics & player instructions & opposition instructions are bad. In fact, losing 20 in a row means ME is actually quite consistent, which is a plus.

One aspect that I've been finding amongst people that play a possession-based style is that somehow the opponent in the last 20 minutes find a way to come through, start pressing, and possession starts dropping. When asked, the reply from some moderator (SI Forum) was that it's very logical to happen because the players from the team playing the possession style were tired, so it was natural the possession percentage to drop. Other reason could be the players becoming disciplicent.

Now, the argument is some peace of art: the team playing the possession-style is stronger, the players are better, body language is fine, and the team is winning. It would be natural that the players from the other team, with worse attributes would be even more tired and since they were loosing and they would be nervous or furious. On top of this, that argument simply forgets that any team that has to run after the ball for 65-70 minutes, the players will be much more physical unfit than those circulating the ball during that hour. So, the being tired argument is completely nonsense. As for the body language argument, it might be that the 2 or 3 subs (if there are any) were disciplicent, the problem is that the body language argument must be used to both teams and not just against one and the body language from worse players of a weaker team that is loosing for sure is not better than the other. Just another nonsense and dilusional argument.

Unless the opposing team was high-pressing the entire game, your players are probably going to be more tired...deeper defensive lines = stamina conservation

Not quite. It's a basic concept in football: the team with the ball stays more fit than the one that has to run after the ball.

Sure, but is the AI actually running after the ball or are they only defending once you're deep into their half?
 
Pretty much confirms what I already suspected ... Tatoon, learn2play pls XD
I think that's a bit harsh. There were flaws, yes. He was just frustrated. That's what this thread is for! He's willing to learn, so give him some slack. We've all been there before. :)
