Josh P Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Just played my first 2 games after the full release, and have seen 15 goals in my first two games. I’ve watched many other people play and they also have far to many goals in their games. main two issues are goalkeepers, with every highlight and 1v1 ending in a goal regardless of angle etc. even worse is defending long balls. Defenders frequently run away from headers and allow attackers to turn them for a 1v1. They also cannot intercept anything even when they have a massive head start.

harrycarrie Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 It's a known issue but the current ME is acceptable, apparently, so wait until December/March essentially mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenTriangle Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 In fact, it's important if the game keeps a realistic ratio of shots on target / shots and goals scored / shots on target. Everything else is a matter of tactics. A very offensive play that also offers large defensive spaces will implicitly generate many goals scored ... and many goals conceded.

iAlwaysWin Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Strikers are scoring more goals than usual but every other position is not! The goals need shared between other positions for a more balanced look at things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seeing that at all - goals spread across front 4 in my 4-2-3-1 and many players on a single goal from midfield or defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sedge11 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Personally I'm seeing quite a spread of goals, stats for my last season, 4 players above 10 goals and 2 just below it. Been keeping clean sheets for fun as well. But I do see the defenders running away from the ball leaving attackers 1v1 as the OP says, which is a little frustrating at times.

This is current save started since the full release. Beta was no different in spread - same match engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luka_zg Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Yeah, sometimes defenders like freeze for a half a second and the striker just goes past. Can be frustrating but it doesnt happen that often. My 4th season with Juventus, conceded just 9 goals in 21 league games so all is fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillYourIdols Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Mine seem pretty fairly split. Paul Mullen is an Outlier here as he is OP in the Vanarama/League two, but even if you took his goals away so he was even with my 2nd top scorer, we would only have 5 less then the top team in the Division (League 2). Currently averaging 2.33 goals a game in the league, Mullen is reponsible for only 32% of those. My Attacking Midfielders another 19 goals and my other Striker, just 2. The Rest are Defenders and Subs. Mullen: 18 Goals 3 Attacking Midfielders: 19 Goals between them Midfield/Defenders: 19 Goals Between them Edited November 9, 2022 by KillYourIdols Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh P Posted November 9, 2022 Author Share Posted November 9, 2022 I agree that maybe the amount of goals may not look as bad if the representation of them through the match engine wasn’t so poor. My very first experience of the full release was a 5-5 and probably 8 of the goals were just completely avoidable through defending being ridiculous. Played a low block and low line yet got done so many times through long balls over the top or defenders not challenging at all despite being last man. Either that or not intercepting despite being 10 yards closer to the ball than an opposition attacker! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Agreed that the Animations do not give a good idea of what the Problem is, or at least there is a lack of options to show the same outcome multiple ways. If my Defender has bad Anticipation and poor speed/Acceleration, I expect to have a long ball played over the top cause him issues, but the standing still is really not the way to show it, Show him getting done for pace, or taking a step forward and getting it wrong. Not standing there trying a standing tackle 5 yards away and making no effort to chase the striker down or hustle him off the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
