Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

Re: Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

EVERY DAMN TIME! It's hard coded for sure, which really bothers me. I save a file for the end of each season so I can go back if I ever want to. and I replayed the start of season 2 5 times to see if this was the case and in every instance he asked for a transfer on the exact same day! I tried offering him a new contract he accepted but still asked to leave. his Morale was always "very happy" until the day he said I'm gone!

Ya there are some players I believe are coded to leave after a season. Bony, van persie, aguero always seems to be moving around, benzema always leaves same with cavani. But I sold him my second season January transfer window for falcao since it looks like man u are gonna keep him.
Anyone ever have problems with Phil Jones? He always seems to get pissy, and wants to leave. Course I played him like a second string cb until he went on a run of great form so I started him but wasn't enough so I sold him for varane

Re: Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

Also you guys ever have an issue with chicharito? I'm probably 14 games into my third year and the dude says he is mad about his lack of matches even though he has played in 6 games and has scored 4 goals and 2 assists so he is playing and getting involved. Its like dude you're rated a 81, there is no chance in hell I'm starting you over Rooney 88 and falcao 89. You are my back up striker like you've been all your life. You come in when falcao gets tired since his stamina is a 69. Sometimes I dont get it with this whole morale thing.

Morale is based on squad role. He probably has a squad role of "Crucial first team" or "Important first team" in his contract. So, because he is being used as a bench player, he is upset.

Simply playing him in games off the bench won't make him happy, because he is still coming off the bench as a second team player. You'd have to give him occasional starts with the first team to keep his morale up.

That is why I was saying Mandron was a steal earlier because he accepts "Squad Rotation" role. So it only takes the rare start, and sub minutes, to keep him "Very Happy" in his morale.

Ya I bought him, and I loaned him out since he was a 69 when I got him. I also have benzia as a secondary back up.

Mandron was a 69!? Woah.

In both my CMs he was 80 or close to it when I acquired him. To be honest, I didn't even realize his overall was that low in his first year. Hopefully he progresses well on a loan.

Its ok, I dont mind being patient. I have Wilson and benzia who are both mid 70s right now behind chicharito, ill sell him after this season

Re: Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

While the issue itself is disconcerting, the effect it appears to have had is also quite strange. Why did having a terrible keeper lead to Bayern scoring only 19 goals on the season? Does the game think to have them play park the bus all season when simming to compensate or is it some kind of overall rating effect that makes them just lose most of their simmed games by lopsided scores?

Re: Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

Career mode is a disgrace in fifa.

In 14, and now i have seen enough to realize this major issue has not been rectified yet, a rough estimation of 91% of teams, if not more, managed to keep their first 11 for 4-5 years, without a single change!

This alone seals the deal of embarassment for me.

Furthermore, the transfer list is as surrealistic as conceivable.

Few changes in the big teams, mostly in the league you occupy, and that's it.

I've seen sooo many examples of the 'bug' that has been addressed in this thread.

It's not a bug, that is if you don't consider blatant inconsideration for realism in career, and for something so basic yet so important as transfer politics to fall under the denominator of 'bugs'.

I've seen countless examples amoung the likes of this:

Real Madrid 5 years ahead 7 keepers. All of the original keepers + say 2 top keepers like Neuer and then some youngins.
Arsenal 4-5 years ahead with 10 strikers. Benzema, Giroud, Podolski, Argentinian Top talent who's name evades me, etc etc... like 7 Top strikers at least. And they play only one!

Teams with 33-36 players as regular as cloudy weather in Scotland.

I am disgusted !

Then, always the same facking thing in bidding for a top talent of mine.

Gerhardt who started off at 69 around 20, got to 75, brilliant player, and what do i see... only lower-ranked clubs than mine bid for him!

Then if i do have a top talent only the biggest clubs bid.

Oh my word.

I can go on for days.

Nicki for example. That guy from Hannover got to 93 overall rating, or 91, stats better than Messi. And he stayed with Hannover till the very last match of my career ! (5th year as i had enough of it)

Shameless neglection of career has become a major let down for me, but i've given up already.

These EA freaks are indeed on the hunt for the big money like bloodhounds off the leash.

I saw an article in the local newspaper few days ago that portrayed an example of two kids on the loose with their dad's credit card which resulted in a sloppy count at the end of the month, or series of months, of 1.300, all in the UT mode.

Imagine how many other yokeless, hard-boiled eggs spend their money in an attempt to ransom that false sense of prestige.

To the guy above me...I feel your pain. Online gaming and modes have ruined sports titles for years. FUT was the worst thing to happen to fifa in its 20 years of being around

Re: Poor coding and QC (the Bayern Example)

Another issue with poor coding is the cpu not changing their formations. If you download the update squads, it is crucial to go in before you start your cm and change the formations for most teams. For instance, manchester united on the current squads plays a 4-1-4-1, and they will stay like that the whole season even when they have falcao and rooney on the bench. Januzaj starts all the time and same with valencia, like really EA? I wonder how the cpu handles their morale, if that even applies to them.

Man City never plays Joe Hart, 4 fixtures against them as Man Utd and not once appearance for Hart. He's always listed as a sub.

How about the coding when explaining player absences. Herrera has been injured in my CM for 3 weeks, every single game the announcers discuss how he's missing via suspension.
