super_lampard Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Currently in FM you can use arrows to show where you want a player to run when he has the ball but I have a few ideas that i think could improve this. 1. You should be able to put two or more arrows onto a player. On the default 442 formation, there are arrows off the wingers so they can move forward but you could have more so they move inside to the central midfield or maybe even move into the strikers position. You could also be able to tell players which arrows to use when like in attacking situation down the left you may want your right winger to move inside midfield. I understand that this could make the tactics page look very messy but could be a good addition. 2. There should be arrows indicating where a player could run without the ball. So there could be red arrows showing where the player could move whilst off the ball meaning a lot mor through balls and threaded passes could be made. Again it could make the formation section messy but I think it would still be a good additon to the game. I know you can add player instructions but this would make it easier to see where your players would move in the game I have looked around and I don't believe these ideas have been mentioned before but if I am wrong then I am sorry and please give your feedback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cometdude Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Good idea in theory but I think it would make it over complicated in practice. I would rather just use the free role option to allow my players to drift or use swap positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
princess cow goes quack Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 i think just with ball and a new feature without ball arrows would be great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkTCfc Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 ITs been implemented in many other manager games i have played and it hasnt made a great deal of difference. It may be good to be implemented though if you had like options in player instructions. Like for wingers or wide men you could have : Cuts Inside / Run it wide / Get in round the back of the defence / No instruction. I could see this being implemented Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stomalomalus Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 This is something else that was in Player Manager. I did like the tactics in PM, so One other thing you could do was set passes. So you could have one player making a run to a certain area, and then another player set to pass either to the end of the run, or even to the middle. It would be like a set play.

gcormack Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 the player arrows are for when your team has the ball not when the player has the ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz-Matt Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Perhaps there should be an arrow for when you have the ball and for when you do not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
isuckatfm Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 If you're looking for more arrows rumour has it you may be in for a shock when FM 09 comes out . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
