dunner Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I'm currently managing Liverpool in 2012 and i have 15 affilliated clubs and 9 scouts (the max the board will allow) Has anyone ever managed to get complete knowledge? How do you go about doing it? Any tips here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

frediculous_biggs Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 On 07 if you had loads of scouts you could get them to continually rotate their regions and get a very good knowledge, but I have not been able to do this on 08. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 First of all what you are asking is a massive task - for total scouting knowledge you would need knowledge of countries such as Vanuatu, Cook Islands, Fiji, Vietnam, Iraq, Venezuela, Mongolia.... - that is if the players don't have common second nationalities. If you are wanting to get a full knowledge bar of one country, which I don't think you are, sign a staff member from that country. If you want more knowledge, make positive media comments to obscure AI managers with obscure nationalities. At the end of the season you will most likely have their knowledge. You could also try managing the national side, as you are Liverpool and a few seasons in your rep should be good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, although one scout might have knowledge of a lot of countries, eg. all the Polynesian nations. I'm sure it could be done although it would be an ineffective use of your staff tbh.

MSCCG Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Should be possible, some nations don't take as long to scout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lambs Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 You hit a ceiling at a certain point, mine is in the low 60% world knowledge. This is because as my scouts scout a new area, they lose knowledge of other areas (I assume this is to represent the passage of time). I use 9 scouts, each assigned to an area of the world, choose my feeder teams to try and fill the gaps, but still I can't get it any higher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbrowes Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Strange all the hassle we human managers have to go through to scout regens. Yet as soon as we prodoce a home grown one with a reasonable PA it seems all the AI managers in Europe know about it immediately! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill b Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I think it would be nearly impossible to do in real life. You would have to have knowledge of all the little countries in the world and so would need a massive amount of feeder clubs and a lot of staff.

Tim Madisun Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 As Milan, using a multitude of different staff from different nations plus some careful rotation of scouting I managed around 80% Don't really see how it would be able to have 100% Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunner Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 If 100% is near on impossible ( which i had a feeling it might be) How do people rotate their scouting assignments in order to get maximum efficiency out of your scouts? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Rock Stars Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 scouts forget knowledge far quicker now than they did in fm07, so i think it would be impossible to get close to 100% in fm08 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
