This game feels so scripted at times

And we are saying that such a boost that gives one side an advantage over another does not occur in the game. That's the whole point and exactly the reason this whole thread is utterly useless.

This thread was scripted. I knew the outcome before I clicked on it and even tried to rationalize.

Exactly. Not sure what's so hard to figure out.

At the end of the day the users control every aspect of input. Pitch type, location, effort etc. It's on the user and the user only. Bottom line is a lot of people pitch far too passively.

But wait....when I asked why would they do that?.....you said so nobody would go 162-0.
There is no way around saying that....and saying that you're not claiming you're not saying that it's not pre-decided.

This thread is the same regurge nonsense.

But I'll bite one last time.....okay...boost....how and how much?
If I give my players a -10 and the CPU players +10.....are you saying that's enough to have no chance to win against them?

But yet year after year your arguing in the same thread. Lol

This thread exists every year and it comes down to 2 extremes usually.
1. The whiners. People that are crazy for believing that something that has been around in sports games for an eternity, call it scripting or rubber band or whatever, might be in this game also. You always want proof and take it so litterally when in reality its a group of people needing to rant. The whiners.

2. The dicks. People that are soooooo awesome at the game. No scripting is even remotely plausible cause they are way too awesome at being awesome. The most pleasure is derived from making sure the whiners know how crappy they are. The dicks.

As you can probably tell im a whiner. Ive seen this thread year after year and its the same. I used to get involved but its really not worth trying to have perspective on the matter and getting internet bullied for having an opinion.

Awe crap....... I guess I did get involved.

Well....



We gave it a shot. It was at least respectable for awhile and for that I thank you.





But now that this post was made I'm going to close this as it can go nowhere from here:

Yea, classifying people as either dicks or whiners is a good way to get a thread closed.
