Anyone else find it funny the 'Post Your Frustrations Thread' far outweighs the 'Post Your Successes Thread'

Thing is, that is not a way to judge it at all. People seem more willing to share their frustrations rather than successes.

I won 15 League title in a row with Dortmund last year, and many CL trophies, yet I did not post about any of them.

Just because the frustration thread is bigger than the success thread, doesnt mean its a bad game.
 
I'm playing the Global Free Agent Challenge as Chelsea and I seem to be able to sign the players I want in every position except for the back four. Everyone I try to sign gets snatched up by someone else... I've tried like 8 separate Centre Backs and I've even offered them several thousand more per week than they asked for but they still end up with someone else. Man U signed both Dante and Kompany... Grrrr.

15 league titles in a row, in one year? no wonder you like it! ;)

I'm not saying its a bad game (although some users will disagree), I've won plenty of trophies with SWFC which doesn't happen in real life. A lot of people seem to associate the increased need for good tactics etc as increasing the difficulty therefore thinking its bad. I was pointing out the irony....
 
Has there been a new update recently? all of a sudden my tactic has went to sh*t providing last season it allowed me to finish 1st losing just 1 game..
 
Nope. Last ME update was in March when 14.3.0 was released.

Worst FM ever, 4 seasons with Liverpool won nothing

mate
1) you really can't blame the game just because you haven't won anything in the first 4 seasons with Liverpool! It is obviously going to be something to do with you.
2) I am in 2028 with Liverpool and won 4 titles, 3 champo's, 2 Cap 1's, 4 Fa's. I only won my first trophy in the 2020/21 season. Just have a bit of ******* patience

*More of a general rant*

I hate it when people complain at the game just because they can't win a trophy or that they lost a game. And the worst is when they claim the game is "scripted". I for one have never experienced this "scripting" and i think it is because i adapt. FM is meant to be realistic. EG a good tactic like the one Rodgers used for his 11/12 (?) winning streak suddenly came unstuck because Mourinho and Pulis figured a way to counter it. You can't expect to be doing the same thing forever and win everything. So basically have a look at yourself before you comment how **** a game it is because tbh it really isnt a **** game at all! Some people are just bad at it :)

While there are many people who are simply bad at the game, I do feel like some things just aren't fair. The haphazard tackling and the ability of players to almost always miss 1 v 1 chances does alarm me.
Also I feel like the goalkeepers are just a little overpowered. The number of wonder-saves I see pulled off by keepers from sides low in the table is ridiculous.
But I will have to agree that there is no scripting. If your tactic "suddenly stops working," it's because the AI adapted to counter your tactics.

No, that's just teams adapting to how you play.

I just find it very strange how there was no gradual process of it.. first 3 games of the season was 5-0, 4-0 and 7-1 then all of a sudden it immediately drops to 2-1's and losing 1-0 etc.. just frustrating (hence why posted here lol)
 
I can kind of understand the position of the people who claim there are scripts. Go through pre season and your players are finding the back of the net. First game of the season all they can hit is woodwork and the GK turns into Superman. Seems the game has a conspiracy against a specific position on your squad each year. When you are on your #3 LFB because of injuries and you end up playing 120 minutes in the first Capital One Cup game with only two days rest before the next mach. What now? There is no one else I can plug in. And it is the only second match in the season! And I lost the cup game because of some BS. If you meant me to lose, thrash me in the first 90 minutes.

Nah Mourinho is just a tactical genius and on another day Liverpool wouldn't have blown the three goal lead at Palace.
 
2017. Season (2015. was playing CL ), menaging Southampton, last round of EPL, 4th spot at the moment, +3 points on Everton playing them away and got +4 better goal diff. 4AM in the morning, im thinking, ,, OK i can lose by 2 goal and im in CL, get over with this ,,. Match starts, HT 2 - 0 Everton, 2nd half starting im scoring a goal 2-1 and they are scoring some late goal so its 3-1 for Everton, match ends. ( I forgot that when i concede 1 goal, its going +1 for them and -1 for me so its -2 for me in total :S :S :S ) Lost that match 3-1.
Table:
Same Points
Same Goal diff.
First game I drew at home, so they have better score in our matches... They are going to CL i am crying at 5th....ffs, didnt played fm 2 months after that...
 
Messi keeps scoring headers from corner kicks against me.

No need to say anything else.
