Substitute
 Hello,

Just a few observations & suggestions for the advanced tactic, in-game substitutions process:

1) I actually like that the players animate running on & off the field - it makes it possible to (try to) use a substitution at late stages of a game a real time-wasting tactic, as in real matches. But while the player going off the field runs off just fine, his replacement always stands on the sideline until play resumes. I assume this has been flagged as a bug (if not... please consider it flagged now! It's really bad...). If this can't be fixed for some reason, can we please disable the run-off animations & simply swap the player on field for the sub so that they are not so badly out of position when play resumes? It very often leads directly to goals, especially if the subbed-off player is a defender.

2) To get around this, I tried making some subs at halftime - thinking they'd just swap during the brief pause & there'd be no need for the animation. But no, they still run off the field & their replacement stands around on the sideline until play resumes. So this is definitely a bug & should be changed: Changes at halftime should always be instant-swaps, without the animation. Another reason to fix this: The clock runs before the second half has even started, while these subs take place. It's only a minute or so of gametime but still, it's time one of the teams will certainly want back.

Hope this makes sense!

 sensible suggestion.

another problem is that when subs come on for a freekick near the penalty area, sometimes the wall isn't formed giving the opponent a clear shot on goal. 		10/01/2013 12:37

 +1, if it doesn't end up with a goal, it ends up with corner or out. 10/01/2013 12:40
