Default Shots to Goals - A comparison to Real Life.

For the people who are complaining about their world-class strikers missing far too many sitters in their games, did you watch that match today? (Newcastle Vs Liverpool)

Fernando Torres missed chance after chance and even an open net.
He should have had four goals but didn't even get one.
Thankfully Liverpool won anyway but it does happen.

Imagine had that happened on FM, oh the people on here showing screen shots (especially of the open net) would have overloaded the forums with cries of "Cheat" and "This game sucks/doesn't work/is bullsh**"

It does happen IRL, as hard as it is to take.

And if it happens in almost every game to all of your strikers?

There's another thread discussing this, but I'll save the same:

There isn't a problem unless everyone experiences it, and no-one has yet to post any complete statistics which shows any problem.

Also, no-one has yet posted screenshots showing their problem happening in EVERY SINGLE match.

Starr_Man i have to disagree, somebody made a post recently (would have to find it again), comparing all the Premiership teams shots on targets too goals, then the game, the worse was Wigan the Best was Arsenal, Man Utd or someone, the guy was playing as Arsenal and Scoring about 1 every 10, the real Arsenal were scoring about 5 times as many.

This happens occasionaly irl, unlike on the game where you can have spells of it for 2 months continuesly from world class strikers.

Didn't realize there was another thread the same, and had no intention of causing an uproar, this will probably descend into abuse and God Knows What.

Could a Mod close this one before it gets out of hand?

Apologies.

If it was a fundamental flaw in the game it should be happening to everyone not a selected few. Because I doubt the game is getting installed on your computer and decides wow lets screw this guy over and make his strikers useless and all the other keepers greater than God himself. Sure there might be tweaking needed but I'm afraid what will happen to my game when they tweak a problem I don't have.

I have some issues with the game but the shot ratio is not one of them.

I'm afraid that understanding whether or not there is a problem with this issue will require a slightly more scientific approach than that, Starr_Man5.
