Luxon6 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 You've outdone yourself on creating what is probably the worst football game in history, the old ones were hard but not impossible when you were a poor team, but when you make it so with no formation or tactics i can win a game, ive played 12 drawn 1 tried numerous formations tactics line ups etc. it ridiculous it doesnt happen in real life so when you get a minute SI make a good game.

JamieWatson Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 All this criticism yet no evidence to back it up. I think when you get a minute, actually give the game a chance instead of playing 12 matches and deciding and I quote in your words it's "the worst football game in history". Anyway what is it you hate so much? Because you can't win? Why not look around the forums, there is people helping with winning formations and tactics everywhere!

DirtyACE Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 In all honesty, you don't even need anything fancy in terms of tactics or formations to win in FM, just some patience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Taylor Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 If you've only played 12 games, you can't have tried numerous tactics. Your players need time to gel, so if you, whenever you lose a game, change your tactics/formation, you're not going to win anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxon6 Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 course i hate it because i cant win! its stupid ive played numerous formations, changed my line ups etc etc. yet i cant win! not even draw a game! stupidly impossible to sign players, dont see the point in creating a team of computer generated youngsters, i want a realistic game. I tried to sign a player who was worth 180k yet i was told to sign him i would have to pay 4.4m plus my striker! Touche SI! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contary, it will drive people away. 2. I believe you've already stated you drew one game here: You've outdone yourself on creating what is probably the worst football game in history, the old ones were hard but not impossible when you were a poor team, but when you make it so with no formation or tactics i can win a game, ive played 12 drawn 1 tried numerous formations tactics line ups etc. it ridiculous it doesnt happen in real life so when you get a minute SI make a good game. So saying you haven't drawn any games is just going to make people laugh at you. Also, tactics wise: If you've only played 12 games, you can't have tried numerous tactics. Your players need time to gel, so if you, whenever you lose a game, change your tactics/formation, you're not going to win anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

likeabawss Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 if you're doing this badly, you need to watch the entire match instead of just key moments (which is what i assume you're doing) so that you can figure out what's wrong. also, don't try to play a style of football that your side isn't capable of playing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FMADDICT69 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 just pick 1 tactic that u think should work with your players and STICK to it, only very slightly tweak it as per situation. i bet after 10-15 games you notice that u get a few promising results. there is no point constantly changing things, the team will never know what there surpose to be doing.

JamieWatson Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Well take a look on that thread I posted above, In the "Forwards" section they state the following: "Forwards: Mackie is a great team player but does lack finishing quality, the same goes to BWP. Fallon is a decent target man and Sheridan provides good cover. Maclean is a goalscorer but lacks consistency. A striker is needed." & Then go on to mention a few players you could bring in at the bottom! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baker.simon Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Simple answer, 4-4-2. I've had fantastic success with the most basic tactic. My advice, like it has been throughout FM10 and even FM09, keep things simple. There really are people on these forums that are willing to help you out and there is plenty of info for you to be able to help yourself. Kudos for persevering and accepting it may have been something wrong with your tactic . Too many people dismiss this straight out of hand and still maintain it is the game and not them. Also 13xforever, does it matter how many posts he has? Surely he has just as much right to post on here as anyone? If post count does matter then you should bow before me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltablue Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I'm one for consistency so maybe its a good idea to find something you like the look of and stick with it. Not many people will succeed every time. Without doing much differently some jobs will go very well, others will be unspectacular and some may even go very badly. Somewhere and/or sometime it'll click. It always does for me even when I have a few unsuccessful jobs in a row and wonder if it'll ever click.

I can pretty much get success with any team in England eventually just playing 1 set way with small tweaks. On the other hand, having tried my hand with big teams in Spain and Germany, my system that works so well in England fails spectacularly in other leagues.

How long did you let a tactic sink in? It takes at least 10 games for a team to be comfortable with a single tactic. To keep changing things will prevent the team from settling.

Derby - 2007/08 It is a good game, there's a few little niggles, but they're always there. Personally, if I were you, I'd have another go at the game and try to not be so terrible at it. Now, some suggestions: -Don't change your tactics so much, if you change your tactics constatly you will lose games! -Don't be a dumbcunt when you lose and post again, keep trying -If you have money, identify your weak positions and bring in better places -Don't come back on here and complain when you lose, it's really ****ing annoying. I could suggest other stuff, but you don't really say much in your initial post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
