Hazzydeepy Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I am finding this game really hard tactically atm, and was wondering whether some of you guys use global tactics as opposed to individual tactics and still achieve success. I find it really quite tedious to change 11 players' instructions when I want to change things and I just find it a bit difficult. In FM 07, I had quite a bit of success with global mentality - has anyone had success with it in 09? PS I have posted this in the tactic forum, but there are more people around here to answer here then there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Global mentality will work well - it is the mentality system that the AI uses after all. Personally, I have found the 'rule of one' mentality split to work best on 09. However, I use a lot of global instructions for things like marking and passing etc. I tend to make up my tactics sets and save them. Then I can switch between them during the game easily. Even if you make global tactics, you'll still find that it is a pain to alter so many sliders to go all out attacking etc. Hope that helps, C.

Hazzydeepy Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Cheers Crouchaldinho - out of interest, are there any things you use player instructions for instead? EDIT: Is rule of one when each position has a mentality one notch forward e.g. CB 10 FB 11 MCd 12 etc.? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yes, that's the rule of one. Check TT&F for the settings. Not sure what you mean with your question about player instructions. I vary my player instructions depending upon ability and the framework. So an attacking tactic will have more through balls being played, for instance, while a defensive one will have less. And so on. You can check how I set up my tactics by having a look at my 4-4-1-1 thread which is on the unofficial tactics bible. There are 4-4-1-1 and 4-4-2 sets there, all rule of one. C.

Hazzydeepy Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Sorry if I didnt make myself clear - I understod that your tactics are based on team instructions but you have some player instructions to. But I have obviously lost you somehwere. I will take a look at your thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have obviously lost you somehwere. I will take a look at your thread. Yes, I use a mixture of team instructions and individual instructions. For some things, I set players to team instructions, such as passing or tackling. For most things, I use mainly individual instructions, for example creative freedom, closing down etc. I tend to keep it fairly simple though. The most complex thing is probably the mentality split I use. All will become clear if you take a look at my 4-4-1-1 thread. C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
