This is by far the best part about FM

Has the 64-bit increased the speed at all? After a few seasons the game would always start to bog down and I was hoping that wouldn't happen with the 64-bit

Drone posted:Doing a lower league thing right now. How utterly difficult is it for a Semi-Professional team to go Professional in England? Can I hope to go Professional after promotion to Vanarama National or will I have to wait until League 2? If you get lucky and get a FA Cup run you can sometimes have enough money to go pro in National. If not than usually when you get to league 2.

This is the most authentic llm experience. You haven't truly LLM'ed until you have done this.

GOOD TIMES ON METH posted:Is there something I can do to make people like me ( This has everything to do with your reputation. If you start with an ex-international player reputation with continental coaching badge they will like you more then if you start as a sunday league player with no coaching badge. So like most things if you win games and trophies they will like you more. I don't think there is anything else you can do to change that.

Bogan Krkic posted:Is it just me finding FM19 a lot easier than previous versions? I've played 4 seasons as West Ham, and have won the League Cup 3 times, the Europa League twice, the Premier League and the FA Cup once each. I haven't won the Champions League but idk if i really care about that at this point, so uh does anyone have any recommendations on a good challenge I should take up? There is always the standard Wales, Gibraltar, Iceland, San Marino, and dafuge challenges. They're pretty good but I always get worn out doing them because the grind is too much. The longest I made it was 10 seasons in Gibraltar before I gave up. My best result was the Champions League group stage. Anyways, how about going to some random country you haven't managed in before like Hong Kong or Indonesia?

sassassin posted:What was your media predicted finish at the start of the season? 4th. I was in 1st place until form collapsed. The usual FM sort of collapse where you get 4-5 chances a game with 3 off the woodwork and you lose 1-0. Morale starts to drop and suddenly everything falls apart.

sassassin posted:This year there are specific issues with finishing % based on reputation. It's easier than before to break down super-defensive sides as defender logic is garbage, but good luck scoring without a deflection of mistake the match engine can't compensate for. This is definitely what I have experienced. It's not the chance creation its the finishing.

You can also try this training spreadsheet out: https://www.fmscout.com/a-fm20-training-planner.html. I haven't used it much but it does help plan out your schedules.

The only time I can seem to find it is when I take full control of the player training for the U23 and U18s. So just take control of training, move your coach assignments around, and then delegate your training back to whoever. At least that's what I do.

Xtanstic posted:If yes, this means that when I get form drops due to teams being familiar with my tactics, it's not enough to do a formation swap, I need to do a tactic swap right? Sort of but not always. It depends on why the formed dropped in the first place. If form drops because of injuries thats one thing but if form drops because a couple of your shite players were playing out of their minds for a few games that something else. Some times you don't necessary need to completely change the tactic. It could be as simple as changing a team instruction or adding a player instruction. I know it sounds cryptic but it really depends on how you are trying to play and seeing why you aren't playing like that. When in doubt just get better players. Seriously that's the best way to fix the tactical problems. You can eventually get players good enough for your division that you will just over power everyone and you don't really need to worry about tactics much. You just win. OoohU posted:How do you beat teams packing the middle of the park with a 4-3-3 seems like my team just plays one twos between my inside forward & wing backs before sending in ineffectual crosses to my 5'8 forward who can do gently caress all with em. I believe Sass said that the best way to deal with those sort of games was to play more conservative, so instead of attacking go positive or balanced. Try to draw teams on to your players and find space in behind because of it. You can also try shoot on sight TI to see if you can get some goals that way. EDIT: also if you are the one playing 433 maybe drop the wingers down and play 4141 may give you some more space. AlbertFlasher fucked around with this message at 13:04 on Jul 10, 2020 |

It looks like they have the Premier League licence as well because you can see the Leicester City badge in one of the shots. I guess that Man Utd lawsuit convinced them.

Eric the Mauve posted:So, thread, are there any actually good Football Manager video LPs on Youtube to be found? Like, that do interesting things with the game and explain what they're doing and why? All I've ever turned up is fanbros and, ah, uneven attempts at humor. I remember secondyellowcard doing a Huecsa LP where he played the whole season game by game. I think it was FM20 or FM19. Anyway he actually would go through his whole prematch tactical set up, what he was doing and why he set it up the way he did. I remember it because it is so rare to actually see that. He's just trying not to get relegated from La Liga. Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoDys3MrOSf1oh8CFaW3lgLhniyC4pVkI

Since Miles didn't elaborate at all on "game as a service" I am going to assume the worst. The new engine won't be modable at all and you will have to pay them $20 for logo packs sort of level of bad. That or some lovely version of a "battle pass" with seasons where you can unlock dumb crap.

I like how they haven't even extended the interview and salary negotiations to international jobs yet. You just get the job offer like the old versions. That shows you how much they care about it.
