ReggaeBwoy Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Basically, when I lose I will never go back and start a match, however on this occasion i got trounced by Barca 5-0 in the game and after the match I had a crash dump. I still got the save but because of the crash dump it goes to my last save which was on the preparation game for Barca but because I have got so far I feel it wil be stupid to delete the save and start with a new team. Should I go back to to where it was last saved, (meaning the result will probably change) or start a new save and delete my current 1? Please give advice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidmonkey Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 go back to last save if you were enjoying the game too much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyr1777 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 The game crashed.. it's not your fault. If it feels like cheating then point the finger at SI and say 'your game crashing made me a cheater, you took my innocence!' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggaeBwoy Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 I was enjoying it a lot, i was looking forward to rebuilding at the end of the season. So annyoing do, I hope it doesnt happen again in my save but even thoguh other results in the league will change due to my match being on the sunday and games were played on the saturday, no one regards this as cheating. For eg I don't want to beat Barca then think I cheateed becauase I lost 5-0 at home against them, which I doubt will happen again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJB2k Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Out of your control, I don't agree with re-loading after bad results but this isn't through choice. Play it again and who knows you may still lose 5 nil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggaeBwoy Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 I am with you to, when I lost i take it and continue, but this was not my fault at all. What would you do if you were in a situation like this but a random crash dump meant ur game crashed and it means you got to go back to your previous game? Please can I have advice, open and reply people in a real dilemma Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazaru5 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I'm currently playing my original 11.1.1 save which had crash-dumped on me shortly before 11.2 was released. I was gutted that I'd lost 6 or 7 matches and wasn't going to play it but for some reason I thought I'd give it a bash while waiting for 11.3 and still playing it, and thoroughly enjoying it... it's not your fault... just be thankful that you only lost one result and not half a dozen... that really hurts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar2010 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 On the rare occasions it happens to me I try to select the same team/orders (If I can remember) and gain the same result from the replayed match, be it win, lose or draw. As you lost 5-0 first time round you'll probably find it fairly easy to lose again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bracken Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I hate it when this happens, I find it a lot easier if I have to re-load to do it to a game when I've won, doing it when I've lost always feels like cheating even though there's nothing you can do about it. Don't worry about it mate, it's not your fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggaeBwoy Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Agreed, hopefully I lost to Barca, btw I am managing Bayern with many injuries, tbh I hope justice is done and they beat me! But i guess that for most people it would be to go back to where I last saved my game right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't your fault. Therefore, as far as you are concerned, the 0-5 game with Barca never happened. Go back to your previous save, take the new result with the Barca game as it comes, and go from there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBKalle Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 No biggie really... The game crashed, it's not your fault... And even if it there wasn't a crash involved, who cares if you reload after a heavy loss... It's a GAME, it's not as if you're cheating on your fiancée or anything... I think some here take FM way too seriously, with the Cheating Police and the moral dilemmas. It's not a competition, it's not a matter of life and death, there's no money involved (besides the 30 quids YOU spent on the game), so it's just a matter of common sense... Reloading a game 20 times to get the desired result is a bit silly and in the long run will destroy the fun, but if it's a once-a-season deal when things get REALLY REALLY REALLY stupid it can be forgiven. P.S. and there's always the "don't brag about winning the FA Cup with FC Crapton if it took you 26 matches to get there" rule of thumb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggaeBwoy Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 Thanks guys for the advice, I will do so, I only had 5 league games to go as well and 2 victories would of win me title so I am not going to let a little crash disrupt my game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo_rune Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 And even if it there wasn't a crash involved, who cares if you reload after a heavy loss... It's a GAME, it's not as if you're cheating on your fiancée or anything... I'd only disagree with that in the sense that if I quit after a loss and reloaded to avoid it, I'd feel that I wasn't playing the game according to the rules. And sure other people can do it, but if they then post to either brag about their exploits - or claim that the game is too easy - having used that tactic and not admitted it, they're pretty honourless IMHO. If it's something that happens as a genuine accident, such as a game crash, then you are fully entitled to write it off, because you would naturally do the same if you had a lucky win and then crashed as well. It's beyond your control so you write it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Reloading is always cheating, unless you have not been in control of the match due to a bug or a crash (happens at times in network games). Big no-no on a side note. I don't care if someone cheats as long as it's not my mates in my network game.

ReggaeBwoy Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 But reloading after a loss, thumbs down to that:thdn: it is much more enjoyabel when you treat it more like real life, but in this rematch I lost 3-1 so that is more justified. For people who are reloading their save sif they lost where is the fun in that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcafcwbb Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I guess you could accept the defeat and save the game. Then make a new save and use the second save to try different tactics if you want to learn about the game. Then go back to the original save a wiser manager without cheating.

ReggaeBwoy Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 3-1 at home, not a trashing but more likely makes me unlikely to go through. Barca play in the game like they do irl, Messi just ran rings around my team but my excuse is that Robben and Ribery were injured Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I get crash dumps quite a lot because my laptop overheats. Most often I lose a game I won, sometimes its a game I lost. I just take the rough with the smooth. If its a one-off for you and you feel really bad about it, you could always replay the game by sending out your reserves/youth to get battered by Barce. But its up to you; no need to feel bad either way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between FM matches I try to remember to save every game day. however, more relevantly to you, crash dumps tend to occur when you've added a slightly dodgy database or graphics file, I believe.

I am playing witht he steam database 11.3 and as to graphics, the only thing I have added is a skin, nothing mroe than that. So i am unsure about these crash dumps, could it be due to anything else such as having many applications running? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
