dafuge Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 If it bothers you (as it would for me) then you can alter your corner routine to make sure it doesn't happen quite as often, but yes, it probably is the known corner exploit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOUGHGUY Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 You can't link to a file on your computer. You have to upload it somewhere first. Like to an image hosting server - such as http://tinypic.com. And then link to its address (like tinypic.com/a1f2/bobspicture.jpg). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY1802 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 can u confirm me for sure that this is due to a bug? i mean, i will deffo change my corner instructions if id know its a bug, i dont like cheating, but if indeed its just some kind of secret ability of my player than i take it as a gift... does anyonelse have this kind of "problem"?

dafuge Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 If every corner is being delivered to the same area and this player is scoring from the same position every time then I think you've stumbled across a weakness in the match engine that can be exploited. I'd imagine it is the same one that others have come across (including myself). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicycle Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Is there an actual exploit? Because I haven't adjusted anything and my CB scored headers like crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Yes, there is a particular (and fairly obvious) setup that causes far too many goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY1802 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 i always order my corner taker to cross to the FAR POST and i always put my dc there...i always put the other dv marking the keeper and 1striker on the NEAR POST but the taker is always ordered to cross the far post. DEFFO A BUG THEN? should a "mixed" orders fix the problem giving my game much more realism? or is my defender actually a genius when it comes to net the corner kicks. i must actually say that 4 of the other goals he scored he has been scoring when my free kick taker crosses to BEST HEADER and indeed he scored 4 goals in the process.

dafuge Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 He's probably great in the air at set pieces but that was the setup I was referring to. Setting it to mixed should tone it down a bit, moving the defender somewhere else as well should make it a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vet Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I have done the same with several defenders. All they need is great a pretty good jumping attribute, although not always like with my star defender who only has 13 but keeps on scoring on corners. One time with Roma Mexes was my topscorer, but that was in 2010. But this still works. And yes, I would call it the corner bug. Pass to far post, and have him attack far post. In old days I used to have the other challenge the keeper, but I got lazy with the setup, and still score regularly. It can work with pretty much any strong person, I reckon, as I previously did it with my target man striker. I have a feeling that scoring goals this way, declines goal in other ways, so I don't think you will score more at the end of the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdanio Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 It should not be the players job to ensure that bugs are not exploited. We should not be finding glitches like this in the first place. Workarounds are not acceptable when you have paid for the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertcornell68 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I don't see it as an exploit, as attacking the back post with a good in the air player is a very common tactic IRL. I also don't think it creates more goals over all, just redistributes them in an unrealistic way. What puzzles me is that I don't seem to concede that many goals from corners.

As much as we all want the game to be perfect you have to accept this will never be the case. All software has bugs, especially one as complicated & openended as FM. In terms of workarounds just be glad there is one and that it is such an easy one in this case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ its hardly a work around, you just dont set your corners to go to one place all the time, if it really bugs people then its that simple, i have mines set on mixed and never have this problem.

Exactly. Got mine set to mixed and while I do score a nice amount of corners it's not always the same guy scoring at the far post. He does score a bunch but so do my opponents. A majority of the goals I concede (though I don't concede many) are probably from far post corners being headed in, though perhaps this is just confirmation bias on my part. Last year I think I had 12 goals from corners in the league while Feyenoord had 15. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjericho Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I have my set pieces on default and my CB (1,92m, heading 16 and jumping 19) has 5 goals in 7 matches. I mean, he's good but I think it's a bit too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinGoodey Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Don't forget that most (good) human-managed teams score a lot more goals in total than the rest of the teams in their league (eg in my game, I just scored 114 league goals in the EPL, while the best of the rest was around 70 goals). Therefore you would also expect to score more from set pieces (since the game will be coded that approximately a certain % of goals by a team will come from set pieces - PaulC gave the relevant % in the match engine thread but I can't remember what it was exactly) So when you look at the list of highest scoring teams from corners, you should expect to see your own team at the top with (for example) 20 corner goals (out of 100 total = 20%). Go down to the next highest scorers (with 70 total) and you expect to see them with around 13-15 corner goals (14 is 20%), while at the bottom, the relegated teams, who only score 30 goals in a season, will only have around 5-7 goals from corners. (Please note the % I have given are just random, not factual) Following on from this, if your team scores 20 corner goals, then the best headers (usually the DC and the target forward) will obviously score most of these.

Gribster Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 im unsure how much of a bug it is now, all my cb's score quite well 6-7+ goals a season playing in either cb postion not just the rcb(who default attacks far post or whatever) last season he banged in 18 goals, but the next season he only(only haha) managed 9 if it was a bug he should be throwing high figures in every season but so far only one season has he preformed at such a crazy level Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 My CB (James Tomkins) was my top scorer last season, with 17 in all competitions. And that’s with a decent attack with Lukaku, Wickham, Hazard, with Johnson and Behrami feeding them. Annoyed me, severely aha. Mind you, Hazard, Johnson and Lukaku were half season purchases after I increased expectations, but still .. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rice2cu Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 It dont matter how you set up your corner tactics. Corners and CB's scoring from them is overpowered in genral. I had an 18 year old CB score 12 goals from corners in his first season in the EPL ... And he had been instructed to "attack near post" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drazkul Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 My CB got 17 goals in 36 apparences and was the 4th/5th top scorer in the league (rooney won it with 19 goals) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
