Yohan4Cabaye Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I feel dirty when my 18 year old regen is constantly banging them in at near post. Anybody else have extremely high scoring Cbs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 It's your tactics. Personally I would change my corner routine so that's it's not happening so often. A bit of a bug in the match engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 You can't feel that dirty if you continue to use it. I think it is up to each user to decide if they want to use this exploit/set up, it is much less effective than the lurking one on FM10 I think it was.

Yohan4Cabaye Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 I still score a vast amount of goals not via corners, however the corner goals are quite a **** take Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

akash777 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 So does anyone have a corner routine which is not exploiting the near post but still pretty good. First game I played without it I conceded two from corners at the near post and its ******* me off since I want to play without a cheat but the AI is using the cheat. :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 The AI doesn't use the exploit though as it will not ask the corner taker to always aim for the near post, having a player attack the near post is perfectly acceptable in my book but because the delivery can be unnervingly consistent I instruct the taker to use a mixed aim point. What the game is missing is a defender standing a few yards ahead of the near post to intercept the low driven corner & act as a shield against the attacking player, hopefully defensive positioning will be better executed on the new ME.

I figure that doesn't give me either any specific advantage or disadvantage over the AI due to the poor set piece defence in the match engine. I still get the occasional cheesy goal in corners, but I concede a similar proportion so I'm really not going to fret about it. It's my perpetual hope that the next release of FM will continue to improve set pieces and cut out the exploits that remain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.U.F.C....TSVR Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Carles Puyol - 20 league goals in 1 season. I'm not ashamed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanbiley Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 The goals from corners are, in my opinion, the biggest flaw in the whole game. The frequency is not just "a bit off", it's absurd. Incidentally, I don't think it's even purely an issue with the near-post: I use mixed delivery and I have a guy win the header at the back post virtually every time it goes there, powering his header on target or fractionally wide/over. In real life the vast majority of corners don't even result in an effort on goal, and only around 1 in 50 results in a goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieVilla Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I normally set up my corners using my 'banger' routine and then rather than pick delivery to near post i leave it as mixed, this way its far less frequent but my centre backs can still pop up with some crucial goals depends on your players aswell, i never buy defenders with less than 16 in heading/jumping and 80% headers won success rate so i find mine struggle not to score. ATM im Arsenal and have Chris Samba and Sebastien Coates who are both giants of men Last season using my diluted instructions Samba scored 8 (from standing on the GK) and Coates scored 6 (from near post) i think this is fair numbers to not be classed as cheating whilst still being effective Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short, corners in FM12 are broken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
isignedupfornorealreason Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 So does anyone have a corner routine which is not exploiting the near post but still pretty good.First game I played without it I conceded two from corners at the near post and its ******* me off since I want to play without a cheat but the AI is using the cheat. :/ I set all the defence back. One far, one near, one on keeper, one lurks outside. (think there's another one in there too....) and that usually results in a lot of corner goals from the far post. But that's only cos the AI is actually hopeless. When you remove people from the box the AI doesn't so the defence get in each others way. It's also why if you do something similiar on defence you'll rarely concede a corner, as your team should man for man defend the area easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
