Red flags??

[HalfLife]

When you are looking at your squad during substitutions, what do the red flags on some players stand for? At first I thought it meant they were tired, but some I've seen had 80-90% fitness. Anyone know what the red flags stand for?

the red ones r for injuries and the green ones mean they r tired

 

[HalfLife]

I've never seen green flags!??

I've seen red crosses for injuries, and the players with the flags aren't injured, or tired. I'm very confused now!

I wish EA would learn how to make a decent and useful manual.

ya they arent flags......they r crosses and i dont think there are flags so i just put that its for injuries cuz i thought he was talking about the red cross..........

 

[HalfLife]

So has anyone seen the flags I'm talking about? I'm playing XBox by the way, if that matters?

 

[b-ytter]

it's because they are suspended for red cards(i think)

I know what he's talking about. They aren't flags, moreso a banner going vertically next to the player's dot. And they're red. These "flags" are different from the red cards and the red cross.

Hey these flags actually mean the players are tired. If you check a player with one of these flags you will realize his fitness has fallen below 30. The flags only appear if a player fitness goes below 30, so I interpret that as tired, or just worn out.

No, I've had players play consecutive matches with the flag. This is puzzling to me?? Perhaps it has to do with a player's form?

 

[ttwellman]

probably... Good rule of thumb that i go by is, sub the red flag players.

i always assumed that these flags did have something to do with their stamina. i've got two players in my game right now, in the 80th minute, who have the flag by their name in the substitutions menu. their fitnesses are 19, and 20 percent.

to find out that this is not what it means is puzzling to me.

well this fifa 2005 manual was the absolute worst manual ever
they dont say anything in them!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rochester Rhino]

i think maybe halflife was screwed up somehoe and the players with the red flad didn't have 80% fitness

Red flags can indicate two things:

1. player is tired, fitness is below 30%
2. player has low morale

then wut the guy was talking about was the low morale i would guess....

I thinking you may be right, cause the players with the high fitness, I hadn't played them much recently.
