Tiger666 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I've no idea if this is specific to the latest patch as I only started playing a week ago but, the general level of ball control is terrible. I play with Spurs and have Luke Shaw at left back and Kyle Walker at right back. The amount of times Lloris throws the ball directly to their feet, only for the ball to bounce off them straight to the opposition is getting beyond belief. I have Lewandowski as well and he is constantly struggling to control the ball. Lamela just received a simple pass from about 10 feet away and the ball just bounced off him in to touch. These aren't bad players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markantony Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Decent post BenSammy. I realised last night that it is utterly irrelevant who I play at full back, because they will make the same mistakes regardless. One thing that irks me (this isn't a big point) is the way the board gets all moody when you sign a player from your rivals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPompey Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Because I want to start a new career without bugs in the match engine, I'm looking forward to the new fix You ask the very same question on an almost daily basis and you get the same answer on an equally regular basis. If you are waiting for a version of the ME without any bugs before starting a career save then you will be waiting for the rest of your life. I'd be surprised if there is a new version of the ME released before the middle of Feb. However since no no-one knows what the issue is that you want fixed perhaps you'll never get a fix Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tot Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Every game my striker plays and doesnt score, I get a press conference question stating this is "Another game where ... has failed to score", even if he scores the week before. Then when he scores, I get a question asking about him ending his drought. Yeah i noticed this a lot with Lewandowski in my Arsenal save. The moment he didn't score the press seem to jump all over him. Not sure whether it was because he was a big money signing or what, but it definitely happened far too much. If i remember rightly, he scored a hat trick in a midweek game and then didn't score on the Saturday and the press were all over him, saying it was another game he had failed to score and his drought continued.

I think you'll find, if you look closely, that the pitch is indeed ice and the players are professional speed skaters. I think that's where the animator got his ideas from whilst watching the last Winter Olympics for player movement. I sincerely hope it gets sorted and as you probably hope, it's an easy fix.

yourname Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Complaint: Players that either a) want more game time b) just arrived back from a loan just a couple of days after season finishes demanding a meeting to ask to be sent out on loan or be sold immediately unless they get more game time asap. Plus a more vague request, can there be an option that says players where football boots instead of ice skates. since the update i have player on same team making a forward run and cris-crossing each other and losing ball behind them, tackling then standing completely still until the tackled player reclaims ball, just the general lack of control of players seemed to have gone weird since the 14.2 update. Make your players waiting on the halfway line when you've got a corner wake up too. If a corner is cleared towards the centre of pitch, my two players staying back watch the ball but never move and a player breaking from the penalty area gets there first then my defenders seem to wait until the players passes them then runs.

luigiluigi Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 After another few hours playing it - - Strikers rarely score any more - As mentioned above, get constant questions regarding strikers last goal - Control of players is terrible - Attacking midfielders scoring a lot more - When I get a free kick about 40 yards out wide, and everyone is piled in the box, whoever's taking it will play it short, or play it back to whoever is staying back - Loads of own goals - Opposition score nearly every corner, while mine constantly get headered miles wide, even when the player regularly scored before Amazing how much stuff there is wrong AFTER a patch. 4 months after release and it's still not working correctly, absolutely mental.

If you really think there's so much wrong with the gam, then just simply invest your money elsewhere next time.

Well said, if i buy anything that i felt didnt work after, despite it being upgraded i would be off, i wouldnt come back each year and make the same complaint again. Thankfully its never come to that with FM, yet, it has done with several other games. I would never buy a Call of Duty game again, same for anything made by Bungie.

It's when posters add the little paragraph at the end about their disbelief at a broken product still not fixed after months that's unnecessary.

luigiluigi Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Nice one, glad I'll be able to fix it. - How do you get your player to fire a ball into the box from free kicks, while using the same formation and instructions that worked before the patch? - How do I get my striker to stop firing wide, fluffing chances, refusing to shoot, or miscontroling balls he used to take with ease, while using the same formation and instructions that worked before the patch? Those 2 would be good to start with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeper tom Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'm sitting here playing FM right now and feel like I'm wasting my time. Started one with Man City and 4 games in I have witnessed keepers on both sides making HUGE mistakes which lead to goals. Sadly Joe Hart has been an absolute ****** at times and given the ball away 4/5 times in these games. It doesn't help when the defenders boot it back to him though! I really can't be bothered uploading these goals (yes call me lazy) because many people have done so already and I can't believe after installing this new patch it has made the game worse. I'm going to play a few more games now and I'll be back to let you know if any other crazy annoying crap happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I'd expect you tell me this about 1,000 times before I finally understand I'm pleased to see other people using the 'car analogy' to compare how disappointed we would be if... I used it once about two years ago and got slated for it. Thing is, his 'Honda' is very unlikely to be sold to him with so many faults as all cars undergo a rigorous testing before being released to the public. Of course once in a blue moon cars will be recalled because of some unforeseen problem that is accruing with some,not always all models. Now, Honda would take his car away and fix it and when he got it back it would be as good as new, it would not go away to be fixed and come back with even more faults than it had in the first place.
