And to be honest, I've no idea why he would suddenly CT out of nowhere - it can't help his season, and all it does is screw up mine.

He probably Ct'd for the purpose of trolling you, hes laughing right now.

I agree that it is unrealistic. To make a clarification, there is a 5th player 'lucky fan', so it isnt a complete 4 on 5.


The problem is that all these tools (enthusiasm, effort, HCA) are in general unrealistic, you can make an argument for the real life application of HCA, especially if your the denver nuggets. However enthusiasm and effort are built in for the sole purpose of making things like these possible. Sure some teams and players take it easy and take days off, however i dont think the general manager of a team goes to its players and says, "listen boys, take it light today, you might lose though".

What I'm trying to say is this, maybe the advantages are a bit over powered. But thats what makes this game, interesting, its what makes this game have an extra strategic value to it. a 4th seed can beat a 1st in the right situation.

You got unlucky, and out hustled, it happens.

My only comment after further reflection is that far too much advantage is given to teams that field less-than-5 player teams in league and/or cup matches. The simple fact is that if you elect to do this (or forget to set your defaults properly) then your fifth player should be Atrocious in all stats, and you should get a penalty - especially in the second half - for lack of rest.

For an incomplete squad to be able to take full advantage of all bonuses (CT, enthusiasm, HCA, etc) without suffering negatives, and for an incomplete squad to be able to get a 'lucky fan' with any skill whatsoever, degrades the quality of this game engine.

Thinking of it, I do agree with you. Perhaps the advantages given by enthusiasm and effort should remain, but the lack of player should have a signifcantly bigger deduction? maybe instead of all atrocious skills on the lucky fan, we give them a skill of negative 2 or something. Its an idea we can take to the suggestion forum.

My setup was CT, just a mistake and forgot to change back to TIE. Nothing personal and I will make sure it's TIE going forward... I just checked the score and it definitely shocked me. Sorry Kergillian...

I don't blame you, it was just unexpected and unfortunate. It will certainly teach me to not assume an auto-win ;)
