Ego Scriptor Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 So SI have fixed the lack of goals from DFKs. The problem (for me, at least) is that the increased goals appear to all be scored against me. Prior to the patch, I went through several seasons without a single goal from DFK against me. Now, half-way through my first post-patch season with no change in set piece tactics, 31% of all Premier League goals from DFKs were goals against my 4th place Newcastle side. Is this something wonky with the patched 3d match engine or is there something horribly flawed with my set piece instructions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The man on the post is a no-no for me, you're inviting the opposition to get a lot closer to your goal by playing them onside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Scriptor Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 That's a good point, but all of the goals have just been fired directly into the net, not as a result of headers, volleys, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakiie Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Be happy, at least you think SI fixed it I'm still reporting the same lack of goals from DFK's as before the 11.2 patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

clonerohin1 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hmm... you say you've gone several seasons without a single DFK scored against you, which means you're several seasons in :confused: Then, I'm quite impressed with the fact that your starting eleven resembles the current Newcastle side so much. It's like you never exploited the broken transfer system. Kudos on keeping it real... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
athos Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 My only tip for you is: don't give fouls close to the box. Maybe get a keeper with good positioning too; Tim Krul is so average. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Scriptor Posted December 19, 2010 Author Share Posted December 19, 2010 OK, I followed the advice here and I'm still the victim of about a third of all EPL goals from DFKs. Is anyone else experiencing this disparity or is it just my horrible luck? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4RG4 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I'm not really conceding any DFK's, but I can *never* score any And that's with Roberto Carlos and Beckham in the team! They just seem to slam into the wall or fly wide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Sounds pretty accurate for Roberto Carlos, despite his reputation he has always had a dismal free kick conversion record IRL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
