I'm noticing that sometimes the assistant is not giving advice on a teamtalk, be it at half time or full time. It just says 'none'.

This is with a game continuing from 8.0.1.

Anyone else found the same thing?

retired_marcias

Maybe his advice is to give no teamtalk?

retired_krissyski

Under 8.0.1, I've noticed that "none" is sometimes what the assistant suggests. I rarely use it.

retired_syling28

This is correct: he thinks that no team talk would be appropriate in this situation. You may disagree with him, obviously, as it's your call.

retired_dreamsosweet

Okay. I need to disagree with him pretty much every time then. 2-0 up and his team talk is none? Makes it pointless having the feature if he's that stupid

retired_gwenlyn

I'm not sure I understand you schuey100.

If your team is 2-0 up at half time, what would YOU want to say to the team? Personally, I'd say nothing too and expect that they repeated the same in the second half.

retired_Iain

Yes we thought this may be noticed. 'None' is what the assistant wants to suggest.

Since you are part of the testing team I would be grateful if you could explain to me how players interpret the 'none' selection?

Do players interpret 'none' based on the match circumstances?

For example:-

Scenario 1: they are performing poorly so I select 'none' to show that I am beyond angry and so annoyed that I can't even be bothered entering the 'virtual' dressing room to give them the hair dryer treatment

Scenario 2: as Hawshiels suggested the team are performing well and I use 'none' as if to say 'keep on doing what you are doing'.

Do players recognise the distinction or is there a generic interpretation of 'none' by the players independent of circumstances? This ambiguity in team talks is a source of frustration and a bit of clarity on how players interpret my 'virtual emotions' would be greatly appreciated.

retired_gwenlyn

Good point. I hadn't though of both interpretations until you posted that.

Scenario 2. Nothing specific is said.
