CPU substitutions

Thu Jan 01, 2009 7:19 pm

Why in enemy playing just 7 players ? Starting five, and two more players, other just sitting all game on the bench...
Recently I played vs. Atlanta and all game played starting five ;D
How to change this problem ?

it's because of the following reasons:

1. you have your opponent substitution set to "Fatigue"
solution - set it to "Rotation"

2. you have your opponent substitution set to "Rotation" but you let the computer decide the minutes distribution.
solution - download roster updates from the great people who have released roster updates here.

so the main solution is set the substitution to "Rotation" (for the computer) and make sure that the player rotation is correct.

hope this helps..

Where I can find options of "Fatigue" or "Rotation" ? I play season...

I play season, so how i can update roster in season ?

When your in a game (whether a quick game, season, etc) you need to go to your opponents side then pause>coaching>settings. Once you are in settings, look for "Substitution Method" and from there you can select either "Fatigue" or "Rotation". After all thats done, you can go back to your team's side and start playing :D

With regard to your roster update question when in season... Simply press pause>gameplan>rotation. Once your in rotations, update the minutes for each player so they will be substituted accordingly... An easy for this is basically download a roster from one of our great patchers here in NLSC before you start a season so that you don't have to update each players minutes :P

Hope that answers your question :D

You can also just lower the cpu attribute for Stamina instead of having to change an option every game. I play 9 minute quarters and have it set to 45 and get some good subs from the cpu.

Just try to adjust the coaching settings of your opponent to ROTATION always.
Sometimes, it just defaults to ROTATION automatically maybe because of the profile autosave.

I set it to "Rotation" and now all good, but when game finished, I get such message:

@Stamina
There's no settings for stamina but you have to edit one by one the stamina of each player.

@End game
It's just for the profile thing. Some of the unlockables like shoes and so on will not open.
But who cares, we have real shoes 1.0. Hehehe. . .

Goodluck!

The funny thing about the unlockables is that I don't know what accomplishment I would have unlocked. There is no list, so I am guessing it's the same as the 360 achievement list.

You mean you don't know where to see the achievements you have unlocked? Kindly be specific Pdub.
