On superstar, I don't wtf is going on. Almost every time i get a one goal lead, the cpu manages to get a soft bs goal. Not a momentum boost goal, but just a soft crappy goal. Almost every time, I would like an official explanation? Does my goalie get a serious ratings drop after I get a lead? And yes, I have the cpu difficulty slider at 0

Its likely done on purpose to give you an exciting "challenge" even though in the end you just get pissed off and come on a website and complain...aren't video games awesome!

I experience the same exact thing...very frustrating.

Having the Goalie Reaction Speed at 2 I noticed There Are ALOT Of Soft Goals. It Pissed Me Off As Well, So I Put It At 3. Yeah, It May Cut Down The Amount Of Clean Goals, But It Greatly Reduces The Soft Goals As Well. I'll Take The Latter.

Might also be an issue with the shot accuracy sliders. Someone reported they saw the soft goals with the CPU slider at 0 and the Human slider maxed. That's what I saw as well.

I've played countless games and have yet to see a really soft goal, seen a few weak ones, but then again Osgood is my goalie most of the time. Playing on SS using slightly tweaked version of Lord's sliders with my own custom rosters(edited every single player).

I had an infuriating game last night on SS where my offense was just on fire... but EVERY time I scored the CPU would come right back. A few were soft goals, and sometimes they just went lift stick crazy in my end and there was little I could do to stop them.

The frusting thing was it seemed like whenever the game was tied I would control play, but then as soon as I took the lead they were all over me. I ended up winning 7-6 in OT (crazy I know), and as exciting as the game should have been I just found the whole thing really frustrating.

Granted this doesn't seem to happen to me every game like some state, but games like this are too frequent and really suck the fun out of things.

Stop playing Superstar??

No harm in jumping down and adjusting sliders to make the game play more "fair" or "realistic" for you.

I play online 1v1 only. The best opponent for me is another player.
