Dalglish Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Superstitious crap - the score's been decided before you kick off, regardless of what mode you watch it in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Wakeford Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 They're different displays of the same match engine. So it makes no difference how you view it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonBlade Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Although I find that if I watch the match I get about 2 or 3 goals, whereas in text only mode I can score loads. Ok, entirely without factual basis, but it happens often enough that something is going on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey1978 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Not true: in-match changes such as cards, subs and tactical changes make a difference. Indeed - but I think what he meant was that if you make no changes during the game then the end result will be identical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

auto98uk Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 did u make that up yourself or did daddy help ya? It is correct if you make no changes to your side - just swapping views does not alter anything. The engine runs the whole game when you click to goto the match, then if you change something it calculates it from that point to the end again. So maybe you need to ask your daddy about it?

Dalglish Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 No need for morninc replies Domathon... What I meant was to a certain extent the result is pre-determined, stats of one team measured up against the stats of their opposition. Of course any changes made during the game will have an effect, but changing from 2D to 3D will have not effect whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VonBlade Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 did u make that up yourself or did daddy help ya? No SI confirmed it some time ago. If you click play, make absolutely zero input to the match, the score will be whatever the game has decided it's going to be. Every time you make an adjustment it recalculates. But the thing is we never know what score it has calculated, so even if you're 3-0 down with 10 minutes to play, it could have already decided that you will make a massive comeback. So if you do make a change it might stop that comeback. Or it might help make a comeback that wasn't otherwise going to happen. We just don't know. The only way this information is of any use is if someone works out how to find out what it thinks the final score will be before kickoff. A few versions ago if a player got injured during the match you could click their name during the game and it would say "injured during team xs 2-0 win over teamy" or something. So you could find it out. But they removed that, so we don't know. So a little less baseless abuse in future eh VB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diablotic Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 There is also another trick to win the game easily - all you need to do is to hoover your mouse pointer above the referee, if you do it above the linesman then you are more likely to get away with some offsides.
