The new season is off to a flying start, with some crazy matches:
#match?mid=6700485&score 34.2 XG for 11 goals
#match?mid=6701286 66.5 XG for 13 goals
#match?mid=6700464&score 19.8 XG for 8 goals

Some people were complaining that nothing was happening in matches, but now we're going to have matches with rugby scores!

maybe it's time to adjust the instructions :)

Small comma problem on the adjustment maybe. ^^

No crazy xG on my game played a bit later, but I didn't look at the others.

We'll have to follow the open data files made available by A45 to get a clearer idea of the new xG cap for an occasion.

I'm not sure it's just a comma error, because 11 goals for 3.42 XG (and not 34.2 XG) wasn't quite like that last season either.

It might be worth looking at the data extraction file. Maybe we'll see some opportunities with more than 1 xG?

Even if there are misses, there's no turning back, so let's have a more spectacular VF with more goals 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Personally, I'll accept a weekend (even a week or more) full of regressions only to see real developments that add a bit of spice.

zejl: Même si il y a des loupés pas de retour arrière pleaaaase qu on ait un VF plus spectaculaire avec plus de buts 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Perso j accepte un weekend (même une semaine ou plus) blindées de régressions pour au final de vraies évolutions qui apportent un peu de piment

Yeah, I don't really see the point of matches at 66xG. A change would be nice, but you don't want to bug the game either.

No 66xg is indeed too much but 13-0 ... send lens play a small village in central France it will end in 20 or 30-0

A club with 900 NG should be able to give a 20-0 score to a club with 200 NG.

As far as I'm concerned, it's not too much of a change, just the same continuity.
#match?mid=6703968&stats

it all depends on the instructions given to the players :)

#match?mid=6683211&stats
36 for me

Well, when you see that there are only a small number of matches with strange scores and xGs and that the rest of the matches seem to be unchanged from last season, it must surely be an unintended bug.

RMP-Val: Oui enfin quand on voit qu'il ne s'agit qu'un petit nombre de match avec des scores et xG bizarres et que le reste des matches ont l'air de se dérouler sans changement par rapport à la saison passée, cela doit surement être un bug non voulu

In fact, I've just won a match 2-0 with 1.2 XG and 6 chances, 2 of which were converted, which makes sense with the usual settings.

So it looks like it's all about unbalanced games with crazy XGs.

It's a bit as if the progression of XGs is exponential rather than linear.

A lot of managers don't rely on XGs at all, and this new setting isn't going to encourage them to do so.
