badgersafc Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Flying at top of league, many points clear, since the update I’ve now lost 7 from 8, including 5 in a row. Anyone else having it? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNT3R Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Irrelevant, tbh. If you're having issues, imo, best to sort it out or maybe even ask for advice in the tactics forum but with all the detail you can give about your setup. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allbrother Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Same-ish. Was getting a lot of high quality chances, cue update and all of a sudden can't get a highlight other than opponents scoring off a corner/free kick 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray27 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I have only played 2 games so far, Playing as Brentford sitting 4th, Have beat Arsenal 2-0 away and QPR 1-0 at home, Had just come off 2 straight defeats before update One thing I have noticed is that my wingers and full backs are getting their crosses in rather than hitting against player, and also more nice short passing than before Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I'm finding it a bit diffucult as well. My season had not been that good before update either but after that have gone 5-6 games without a win with Leicester. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAFC_Dugout Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 This is exactly why I've set my steam to offline mode as soon as I saw an update was out. This constantly ruined FM20 for me, as every few weeks id have a slump in form because of constant match engine changes. frustrating. Always takes 4-5 updates for SI to be happy with it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakiie Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hadn't even noticed the update, but went into the new season in great shape. Guess parking the bus got buffed? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSEARLEYx Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Three 0-0's in a row after updating, clearly messed the match engine up yet again. It was spot on before, now its a boring snooze fest. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Got sacked by Leicester lol. Will try now a new save in normal edition but never had this kind of failure in FM. Last time got sacked was FM 19 where I played CL final but because I had set expectations a bit higher with West Ham they sacked me after finishing 5th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielclouston1 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I've played 11 competitive matches since the update and won 8, draw 1 and lost two. About the same mix of results as before the update. It could be that any ME changes have had a knock on effect to the tactic you are using but that's not really a problem with the game tbh.

What ****** reply If your tactic relied on some dodgy ME coding that was patched, then yes. If your tactic stops working between patches, then this is the most likely thing that has happened. This is something that can be easily remedied. That or it is confirmation bias. You make a false connection between losing and the patch because that is what you expect to see. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samdiatmh Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I didn't think I actually did that well post-patch Healthy dose of confirmation bias likely (2 losses in 3 games) My last game pre-patch was the Carabao Cup final Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xturqz Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Yeah the new match engine is horrible. I reinstalled version 21.1.3 (which has 21.3 match engine) and it is SO MUCH better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajt Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Not really no, I did switch from 4-3-3 pre-patch to 4-2-3-1 afterwards though because I wanted to try to score more goals. If anything we're doing even better because an AMC seems to be really useful now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreambuilder Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Super biased thread with 1 sample. I dont think that the patch is the problem.. Did you play new players and destroy team cohesion? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emil_sbn Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Had a super rough start in the PL with Sunderland with no win in 7 games. Kinda refreshing though since this has made it more challenging. Do anyone know how team cohesion translates to the ME? Just wondering because in the last game i played with my two cm's I had since league one and we took our first win of the season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
