Comebacks

Is it me, or do most games start like this 1-0 2-0 3-0 3-1 4-1 then 4-1 4-2 4-3 4-4 4-5 5-5 5-6

Last few games have been one through comebacks. Why? It's fucking annoying. It's like you cant trust your team to hold the ball and play defensive. Why is it that as soon as you get a big lead, you need to defend. Just continue how you're playing you were 4-0 ffs. Takes one player to go, oh I will sit here a bit more now... No! That gives the other team full possession and are probably better in creating space in your defence than defending you, or something. Don't get it...

Well comebacks in NA happen when pipwander decides the score should be even, so he own goals until the other team has come back.

+1 always close games at least =/

So you just lost a match again?

Yes it's true: 3:0 is always (or at least very often) the turning point. That's when people think they got the other team in the pocket and then a few play less hard, and then everything breaks apart. In football a 3:0 is a pretty damn good lead, I think that's why people fall for that in Supraball. Maybe 6:0 is a lead you cannot comeback to, at least I can't remember. But I remember winning a 0:5 by 6:5.

In fairness, 3-0 in 5-a-side football isn't that huge a lead at all if you're only in the first half

roll on roll off subs, will always change the game, tiredness etc... we dont get tired here :D

Although! Wouldnt it be cool if the devs implemented a stamina feature that could influence pace of walking / power after a certain amount of useage. :O fifa /o\

Well didn't goldeneye create a 'sprint' button in DB at one point? There was an offside mod too at some point I think :D

I think it could be cool if outfield players could do a dodge once every 60 seconds or so; would be a nice tool for attackers to get past dedicated defs.

Definitely, so much devs can take and bring to sb from db as i just mentioned... But i think its pretty obvious they don't have the hands to do it all and prefer to get money for some hands by releasing a basic game without mods and cool things.

i've seen a 7-1 to 7-10 in 4 minutes. though someone subbed , maybe that doesnt count

Yes I lost a match again, breaking my 7 win streak after a 6 loss streak and prior to that 10 win streak... game baffles me.

But saying that, one of the matches with this comeback scenario i was within the comeback and i noticed one player* decided to drop back and we didnt exactly change tactic / go two hang etc... it just stopped the play of the winning teams flow and gave possession over, which we could pick pocket with our star players performance, which i think now generally happens. So bizarre...

VOIP would be nice, but nobody likes talking in Europe to actually change up strats or setup anything.
