Liampard Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I'm not sure if this is true but is there such thing as momentum in fifa as i just played a game where mine and my opponents team were the same rating my chemistry and morale were on 99 but my players weren't making any runs and i was finding it hard to attack can anyone tell me if there is such thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Pretty sure there is not. But as you no fifa's A.I are terrible and very inconsistent. However you are shit so that could be why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt x360a Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 yes, momentum does exist or handicap as people like to call it. you can disagree with me but i know and many other people know for sure that the handicap does exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I know its "supposed" to have been in the last 3 fifa's but alot of the things EA introduce into FIFA never ever works. I mean even the ea hub thing which has been with us a while still does not work. They need to go back get the basic's right first before they start introducing all this new shit. I say no because for me and alot of others it has no effect at all. A.I are just retards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think it's pure coincidence that the A.I. act "retarded" after a few big plays for the other team, but everything happens to go right for you after some plays in you're favor? I think you'd have to be pretty naive to not make any connections with these occurrences. It's also quite ridiculous to think that just because one aspect of FIFA isn't complete, that every feature is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 No i mean no matter if im winning or losing the A.I dont change and they never have done there always the same what im saying is momentum has no effect for me ever if you concede its your fault. And pretty sure everyone knows that alot of the stuff in fifa dont work but that dont really matter because its fifa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodOnTheSound Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 the momentum isn't in the game its in the player playing the game. because we all know you go 2/3 goals down you aren't going to be feeling good about yourself, but as soon as you get one back you start thinking just maybe the comeback is on, then you get your 2nd and 3rd maybe even 4th and then you win. imo the momentum isn't in the game but in the player and how the deal with going goals up and down in the 90mins.

Would have to disagree. For me, momentum is definitely in the game. Why? well, let's see... all too often I'm dominating, shots from all angles, most possession in their final quarter, missing one-on-one opportunities, and even open nets. Then the opposing team make one break in the final minutes, and scores with their one shot. Really. I somehow doubt this player puts in all his hours for clinical finishing. There definitely is negative behaviour (certain parts I'd call scripted), against the better player. Sort of balancing things out so it makes a decent game for both, which doesn't give a true reflection on skill. I won't be getting the next title, looking into PES and if that is still crap then I'll do without either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People always moan about fifa me included but it really is down to ability. If you cant score its your fault. You opponent is obv just a better finisher.

BloodOnTheSound Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 im with inferno, its all down to player skill and there mental ability to be able to respond when conceding goals. the scenario that neil gives were your dominating an opponent and they have one shot on target and you lose 1-0, thats football for you. its all in your head whether you take it too heart and think that the computer has some coding making this happen or you use your own ability at the game to change the momentum and then the result. its all a mind game in my opinion.

BSC YoungBoy Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I don't agree with the scenario Neil gave, however there IS some type of in game interference. There have been many times I have been better than the other person, but got a crap loss simply because everything goes their way. I have 1 on 1's and do everything I can control (positioning, shot power, shot type, aim) to score, but the resulting shot is not what I asked for. Also EVERY rebound and 50/50 ball goes straight to them no matter where they are on the pitch. Don't just give me "that's football" because it's not. Who gets the rebound is decided by who has the better positioning and anticipation. In some games on FIFA, the rebound goes directly to their player without having to move at all. The chances of that happening ONCE is slim, let alone every time. There have also been some games where the above events have happened in my favor, and I just sit back and say, "wow, how lucky was I?" I'm not just some whining kid that can't take a loss, if I lose to a better player I have no problem with it. But it really pisses me off when I play better than the person in our game, but a "third party" seems to ensure their victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSC YoungBoy Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 You can read about 'momentum/scripting' here, including EA's 'official' response... http://forum.ea.com/uk/posts/list/1182202.page A post on that forum sums it up perfectly. "if you can't see it then maybe you're benefiting from it". Many people don't want to accept when they got lucky and just write it off as them being better. And as for the ea response, of course they would never admit to fixing results whether it's true or not. But they did say something interesting, "there's nothing more important to the dev team than creating a game that's as fair and balanced as possible for anyone playing it." this can be interpreted as giving less skilled players help to give them a chance against better players, hence balancing the game.

Anyway, least someone else is able to see these things! I see how ours is similar, but some could interpret yours as just being a "bad finisher" (not accusing you of anything). I do agree that sometimes even when you do all you can to finish, the ball just doesn't go in for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 It does just come down to skill. If you go a goal down rather than keep your cool most players will go fuck need to score! Leaving them wide open to spank. If you keep your cool after conceding you have much more chance of getting back into it. Same applys when you score. Its not the games momentum its your mental approach to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The style of play as you mentioned (rushing in attack after a goal) is ENTIRELY different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Rebounds and that are just luck. Loads of times ive had a pass hit my own defender and play him through and vice versa or my opponent win every second ball! most of the stuff you complain about is just the broken game and bullshit.

Matt x360a Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 its nonsense all this its mentality crap. ive played 1000's of games over all the fifas so i know when there is something wrong with a game. although ea might not admit it, momentum and handicap exist. people who say it doesnt are just trying to be in the look at me group and argue for the sake of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTGMx INF3RNO Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Its never been mentioned ever. If it was in the game EA would announce it as some new "Cool" feature like they always do. Momentum is an excuse for people who lose. Just makes them feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt x360a Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 momentum isnt at all an excuse for people who lose, ive experienced it tons of times even when i win. it is in the game and there are enough people who experience it and so do you most likely but are just arguing for the sake of it.
