WojciechZed Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I am not going to buy FM20 as I generally don't buy these games every year (FM19 was the first one I got in a decade) but I was wondering if FM20 fixed the well known FM19 (and possibly earlier versions) issue where you would get a lot of shots hit the woodwork, almost every game, and sometimes 3 or 4 times in each game.

Well I hit the woodwork 6 times in a match last night that I drew 2-2, frustrating to say the least! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JordanMilly Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Meanwhile I've hit the woodwork once or twice in the last 10 or so matches, so it isn't a consistent thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yolixeya Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Last season where I was dominant and won promotion with 20 points margin I had 1 game where I hit woodwork 4 times and maybe like 2-3 games where I hit woodwork 2-3 times. This season I am relegation candidate and I'm generating less shots on average and honestly, I can't remember when I hit the woodwork last time. And i'm in final third of the season.

99 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 My players seem to have their aim amazingly accurate. And it's frustrating, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartdude Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 What's with the woodwork thing ? I don't think it's an excessive occurence and for me, it adds to the drama ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WojciechZed Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 As mentioned above, in FM19 it was an issue. The woodwork would be hit so many times in some games that hitting the woodwork didn't feel as agonizing as it does in real life. I was wondering if this was continuing to happen now. Seems some people are saying it does and some that it doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phd_angel Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I see woodwork once or so per match. Not bad. More concerning is "disallowed goals", which I've been getting twice or more a match on average... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrazT Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Users tend to remember the match where they hit the woodwork a number of times- they are less likely to recall the match when the woodwork wasnt hit. I just checked and there was one recent match where I hit the woodwork 5 times, then there was only 1 in the next 4 games- guess which one I remembered? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even rarer are goals off the woodwork Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WojciechZed Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 I don't think it is a fair argument. Normally we notice things if they occur enough times to notice them FrazT. I'm sure if I had one game where the woodwork was hit 4 or 5 times, but that didn't happen again for a while, I would forget about it, but it happens over and over.

johnhughthom Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Just reinstalled after not playing since December. First game of pre-season, hit the woodwork six time, The memory bias argument is an insult to our intelligence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WojciechZed Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 Agreed. When people post screenshots of stats showing they have an average throughout the season of 3 woodworks per match, that isn't them just remembering those games where they hit the woodwork a lot. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmpusr Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Given that my team has hit the woodwork 113 times over the past two seasons (about 60 matches per season), I'd say there is some room for improvement... :P 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
