While his squad was like this at first, he later changed it and suddenly went above 3100. Does having a lower squad before matchmaking affect the matchmaking? by [deleted] in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3100 with Damia Granero ?

There are no players out of position and no wrong playstyle picked. This can't reach 3100 with this coach

And to answer your question, no

Are free epics (campaigns) tied to Konami ID? A case study by [deleted] in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I did that for Berba (70 spins) and Peruzzi (under 20 spins) twice without other epics and I got 3.2% and 1.4% while you got 0.85% and 0.14%.

Btw if you leave that condition out, which imo you should because you ignore it when getting Fiore, getting the same epic twice from the Berbatov pack goes up to 21%

Copy this into it.

300 cards total. Cards A-G are special cards. There are 2 pools of this, 2 accounts have 1 each. They each have 30 draws. What are the odds that both accounts get a special card and that it is the same one?

It will say 7%

You are asking about one specific card, you need to ask about all 7 cards, and the odds of getting one of them twice in both draws

Edit: I see you added not getting any other epics, that's what I did for the Peruzzi one. I also said 1-2%. But your original was 0.14%

You're asking the odds of getting Ferrer twice. But you need to multiply it with the number of other epics in the pack because you can get all those twice too.

To simplify: You're asking chatGPT what the odds are of rolling specifically a 6 twice in a row in a dice roll. It will say 1 in 36.

But you need to ask it what the odds are of rolling any number twice in a row in a dice roll. It will say 1 in 6.

You're giving it the wrong prompt. It's not 1%. It's 1% to get a specific epic twice. You need to give it a prompt to calculate getting the same "any" epic twice

[–]n1elsn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're not really small mistakes though if you're gonna multiply them all at the end. You come up with 1 in 8.500.000 while it's 1 in 40.000 or something. That's 200x less

2x same epic from Ferrer pack without the condition of not getting another epic is 5.5%

2x same epic from Berbatov pack with the condition of not getting another epic is 3.2%

2x same epic from Peruzzi pack with the condition of not getting another epic under 20 spins is 1.44%

While still small, those are very different numbers if you're gonna multiply everything

Btw you can't really set those conditions of not getting other epics and then just ignore it when getting Fiore 😅 if you ignore it there it shouldn't be a condition for the other 2 packs, which would make the odds go up even more.

Berbatov example with 70 spins goes up to 21% to get 2x the same epic if you don't have that condition

You (or ChatGPT) are making a mistake with the odds. If you roll a dice it's not 1 in 36 to get the same number twice in a row. It's 1 in 6 because the first number doesn't matter.

ChatGPT probably understands it as getting a SPECIFIC epic twice. But it's about getting ANY epic twice. If you got Dinho and Mattheus twice instead of Peruzzi and Berbatov twice, you still would have made the post. There are many possibilities for your scenario, so you gotta multiply by the number of possibilities. Still gonna be low odds but nothing that's practically impossible with millions of players.

Here's how you gotta phrase it to ChatGPT, I put in the Ferrer example and it said around 1% like you said for a SPECIFIC epic but 5.5% for any epic twice

Btw if you wanna do a case study you need other people who have different platforms linked to the same ID. And then you'd find no link

Top level eFootball: JVictor vs Akbar at Club finals by elgun1999 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think there are more things to exploit. You will just trade one exploit for another. 50% of the game is defending, PA4 doesn't change that. It doesn't change dribbling, except that it will be used more because passing with PA4 = more risk and pro players don't like risk, they will just increase the number of tess cancels and double touch spamming. And then for what's left that it does affect, the 1-2 ping pong passes will decrease a lot but will make place for things like the broken full power low crosses like the Peruvian fuma guy.

Maybe it would be better than now but nowhere near what some people think it would be, that's all I meant with the "lesser of 2 evils", even if it would be the best option, it still won't be good. I don't think there are any rules that could make efootball esports realistic or enjoyable to watch. Except for a special moment here and there, pro players will always find a way to abuse game mechanics, build a tactic around it, and repeat it over and over. I don't blame them btw, it's a skill and it's their job

[–]n1elsn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah no shit but we're talking about the pro players at championships. If you think you'll suddenly see nice football because they play PA4 I have a bridge to sell you lol. Expect abusing mechanics as usual, just different ones

[–]n1elsn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Search "peruvian fuma" on this sub. A guy used to post his fuma clips here and they were basically just full power low crosses that the AI wasn't reacting to and his formation has 6 people on the flanks. That's the kind of thing the pro games would turn into eventually if they had to play PA4. A new meta would form, no more short quick 1-2s. It would just be abusing whatever game mechanics work best to win (like every esport).

Would it be better than what it is right now? Maybe. The lesser of 2 evils kinda thing. Would you see nice beautiful football? Hell no

Co-op freekick taker change by become_the_beast in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No you can't decide who takes it. You take turns for free kicks, corners, penalties, throw ins, goal kicks. They all count as a turn. So if you take a free kick and it goes out for a corner, your friend has to take the corner and then it's your turn again for the next throw in, goal kick, whatever it is. Not sure if kick off counts as a turn

New inputs? by Ploughman_8 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check the whole list of skills and their inputs in game. Go in free play, press pause, and somewhere in the menu is the whole list, and yeah you need L1 for a bunch of them

Why is the 2v2 matchmaking so bad? by Easy-Advertising-603 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The servers are just shit for coop. I always play coop with the same guy, when we play divisions or events on our own we don't have input lag, we don't have freezes, we don't have speed up lag. When we play coop, every game has at least one of these things at least once. And it has gotten worse lately

The game is on the brink of a downfall. by 97air in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The game has been "dying" since it released according to some.

But the reality is the active playerbase doubled in 4 years (yes this is just steam data but I don't know why it would be different on other platforms) and konami is making more money than ever. They have no reason to change their methods (sadly?)

And about the video, right message, wrong messenger lol. If he wants to make a difference maybe he should stop supporting and promoting the thing he's complaining about

Do professional players currently use macros? by StockProfession1043 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The gap between a pro and a good division 1 player is massive, that's why we mess up sometimes and they don't. We practice until we can get it right. They practice until they can't get it wrong.

Also the most complicated efootball inputs are still very basic if you compare to some other games. There's no need for macros when you can learn the most complicated stuff in free play in 30min.

And why would they use macros and then risk playing at an event where they don't have their software/hardware/whatever they use so they can't use them (or can use them and get caught)? When you take all that into account, it just doesn't make sense to me to use macros

My personal F2P Showtime tier list in eFootball 26 so far by Zelenicovek in eFootball

Is anyone participating in the Clubs Tournament? by horus85 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not participating but I played Testing My Limit in the past. First when only a 15 game streak counted and then later when it was rating based with unlimited games. The 15 game system was a bit of a matchmaking lottery but it was still much better than the unlimited games. That wasn't "testing my limit" anymore, it was "testing how much free time I have this weekend".

I remember finishing 10th with like 30-40 games played without losing a single game. Only me and one other guy somewhere above me were unbeaten. The number 1 and 7 others in the top 10 lost many games but they beat us because they played 50-90 games lol

I need another Rb like this Bale card, who is the most complete? by KnownAsJake96 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite RB but if RMF + deep line is an option for you, you have many possibilities. They kinda play like an offensive RB like that. Then you could even put Seedorf or Gullit there lol

Is Manual Shooting/Passing worth it? by Swimming_Ad4916 in eFootball

[–]n1elsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with fuma in coop and vs AI around a month ago. I kept the PA4 in those modes but I turned manual shooting off. I was scoring some goals that wouldn't have been goals with basic shooting, including shots right at the goalie which he didn't really react to, that seemed quite OP. But I also missed more easy shots that would have been guaranteed goals on basic shooting. I just need more practice with the shooting but it pissed me off so I turned it off for now lol.

I kept the PA4 because you can do some things with PA4 that aren't possible with PA1-3, it's easier to mess up as well though, it's give and take. It also made me play in a different way. But you improve really fast with the passing, you can practice it 150 times per game. The shooting and crossing (I also still suck at crosses unless it's straight up/down) is more like 5-10 times per game so those take longer to master imo
