Default 8.0.2 - Ask assistant advice on teamtalk

I'm noticing that sometimes the assistant is not giving advice on a teamtalk, be it at half time or full time. It just says 'none'.

This is with a game continuing from 8.0.1.

Anyone else found the same thing?

Maybe his advice is to give no teamtalk?

Under 8.0.1, I've noticed that "none" is sometimes what the assistant suggests. I rarely use it.

This is correct: he thinks that no team talk would be appropriate in this situation. You may disagree with him, obviously, as it's your call.

Okay. I need to disagree with him pretty much every time then. 2-0 up and his team talk is none? Makes it pointless having the feature if he's that stupid

I'm not sure I understand you schuey100.

If your team is 2-0 up at half time, what would YOU want to say to the team? Personally, I'd say nothing too and expect that they repeated the same in the second half.

Yes we thought this may be noticed. 'None' is what the assistant wants to suggest.

Since you are part of the testing team I would be grateful if you could explain to me how players interpret the 'none' selection?

Do players interpret 'none' based on the match circumstances?

For example:-

Scenario 1: they are performing poorly so I select 'none' to show that I am beyond angry and so annoyed that I can't even be bothered entering the 'virtual' dressing room to give them the hair dryer treatment

Scenario 2: as Hawshiels suggested the team are performing well and I use 'none' as if to say 'keep on doing what you are doing'.

Do players recognise the distinction or is there a generic interpretation of 'none' by the players independent of circumstances? This ambiguity in team talks is a source of frustration and a bit of clarity on how players interpret my 'virtual emotions' would be greatly appreciated.

Good point. I hadn't though of both interpretations until you posted that.

Scenario 2. Nothing specific is said.
