Bababui Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 OK..im trying to set up my lineup using the ingame tools. I have 2 DM's who appear pretty even in CA..I want to play the one who has the higher PA. So I ask my ass man to give me a report on them. He tells me on Miltons report that Milton has more potential than Lis He tells me on Lis's report that Lis has more potential than Milton. Sorry to pile on, but these bugs are quite annoying and I dont want to resort to FMRTE. Please fix this for FM 2012. http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t239/bababui_2007/0fmmiltonlis-1.jpg http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t239/bababui_2007/0fmmiltonlis2.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 It means both of them have the potential to be better than they currently are. Potential is compared to current ability in reports. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bababui Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 They each have the potential to be better than the other currently is. I see that from screenie #1; but #2 seems to indicate that he thinks this player is better. Its too vague IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have the potential to be as good as one another; but, otherwise, one has to have the potential to be better than the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0x0r Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Okay, lets set this out simply. DM A is currently a 150CA/170PA player. DM B is currently a 150CA/165PA player. DM A has the ability to become a better player than B is. B is a 150, A can be a 170. DM B has the ability to become a better player than A is. A is a 150, B can be a 165. Not contradictory, it just doesn't tell you what it think it does. It compares players potentials against the best other option's current ability.

Lower Leagues Rule Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 The Potential is compared to the current ability. So using above: Milton has the potential to be better than Lis's Current Ability & Lis has the potential to be better than Milton's Current Ability. Pretty Clear really.

But utterly useless as myself and any other manager would want to know who he thinks will be the better player. Im not asking him some vague question.

Bababui Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 I suppose the starts factor in too to make it a little clearer. I wish it was a bit more straightforward though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not asking him some vague question. Well if the star rating is 4 for both of them, then he believes they will be about the same in future, if one is Star 5 one 4 then the 5 one is going to be better, that's it. THe statement in the report is him saying they will be better than thr other one currently is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie McMahon's Secret Lover Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 The AssMan has always been nothing short of useless on FM. IRL if I had an assistant like the ones in FM I'd get rid of him. They need overhauling big time. However Ackter and the boys are correct in this case.
