Robert the Spud Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 FA cup final- I beat Chelsea 4-2. Laptop goes haywire 4-5 game days after the match, have to reload. I lose 3-1. What do you do when this happens? Take it on the chin? EDIT: I also had this problem after a Champions League match, winning against Milan, left laptop on, crashed, then played again and only drew.

slipknot67 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I treat it like the match was abandoned and replay the fixture with the same tactics, first 11. If I lose I accept it and get on with my game, although it's never happened to me in a huge game like a title decider or cup final (yet). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesjunior Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 After having this happen to me a few times in earlier editions of FM I now save my game immediately after every match, If my game crashes I only have the time between matches to replay. A bigger problem for me on Patch v3.0 is the game crashing or freezing during the match. I think it has something to do with my AV updating during match play but not certain as yet.

I replyed the match a third time, and i won, which i will take i think, since i won the first time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
busngabb Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I replay the game again until I get as good a result as when it crashed. It's the AIs fault the game went off, so they should be punished for it. Otherwise you'd get the AI taking over and crashing your computer on 89 minutes everytime you were winning Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoreTore Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Would I replay a match I had previously lost which got turned into a huge victory? I think not. Therefore, I take any replay defeats on the chin as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazza10 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I would most probably switch the game off... Fortunately i never had any crashes rill now but i do like to save regularly just in case.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swedezinho Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Depends on who I am, mostly I start a new save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock1986 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I freak the **** out. Take a breath and take whatever happens in the replay on the chin. I do this for two reasons; 1. I would definately not replay a match again if I had initally lost and won it at the second time of asking. 2. My crashes normally occur in during league games and I won't keep replaying until my rivals all get the same results. (Actually lost a league once on GD because of a crash, I won my game and Arsenal lost theres. I ended up winning the replayed game and so did Arsenal - Alternatively I have also won a Champions League because of favourable results in an replay of fixtures) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cullen93 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 kick my cat then replay it till i win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Perfect-Fm'er! Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Always save straight after the match of any big win nowadays but I used to reload until I won IF it was a game I really needed to win and did win. Although if I haven't saved for like 3 game weeks and have to re-do 4/5 matches, then I didn't bother but just played through even if it meant not taking like 5/6 less points. Rare occasion though, maybe 1/2 per year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
