Keyzer Soze Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hi, Really like if someone could explain this to me. I'm current in my eleventh season with Benfica. Apart from my club job i also manage France (2 years), Netherlands (2 years) and Brazil (one year). As i check my knowledge levels, this is what ot shows: - Portugal (full bar) - Brazil (3/4 of the bar) In the past i also had half a bar in France and Netherland, but lost it. I found this very unrealistic. I mean, i current have a World Class reputation. I've won 45 titles (includind 6 Champions League), every year i play game in europe... and the only knowledge i have is in Portugal and Brazil? Common!!?? And for example, when i compare myself with other managers: Ancelotti: knowledge in 21 countries André Vilas Boas: Knowledge in 18 Countries Mancini: Knowledge in 19 Countries And none of them work (in my save) in more then 2 contries. It's pretty obvious that AI managers dont need to work in country X to gain knowledge in that country. So why Human managers do? There should be a different system for human managers gain a country knowledge. And this is particulary important, because having knowledge in country X it's one key factor if you want to work there.

dafuge Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I've also noticed the manager knowledge acting a bit strangely. This is my profile. As you can see, I have knowledge of Sweden, from a one month stint thirteen years ago I spent six years managing in Italy (leaving eleven years ago), that knowledge has all disappeared I agree that the loss (or lack of loss) of knowledge should be the same for human managers and those originally in the database.

Keyzer Soze Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Yeah, Looking at your profile... 80 yo manager... World Class... and the you only have knowledge in 4 countries! LOL for example, i think that the knowledge should increase with your reputation. for example, a manager from europe... with a world classe reputatin, should have, automatically, knowledge in the top countries (england, spain, italy, france, germany, holand...)

dafuge Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Looking at your profile... 80 yo manager... World Class... and the you only have knowledge in 4 countries! LOL Two of those were there from the start (England/Wales), the Sweden knowledge is a mystery and the Argentinian knowledge is from my current job. Doesn't really seem right for someone who has also managed clubs in Spain (8 years), Germany (7 years), Italy (6 years) and Brazil (3 years) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyzer Soze Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 good point there. I believe Alzheimer's disease is one of the atributes that SI takes account to establish manager knowledge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyzer Soze Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Well, perhaps SI tune up the manager knowledge for FM2012. I think that this feature is new in FM2011, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikeal Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 dafuge - how did you get a picture on your manager profile?! Is this dynamic like the ones for the newgens or do you have to update it automatically yourself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I added it manually at the start of my game, it never changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 dafuge, how do you get to have a single name on your profile? You can set a nickname for your manager. I think the button is in the top right on your managers profile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazaru5 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Manager knowledge comes from players/managers/staff who either list the manager as favoured personnel or are his favoured personnel. Back in FM09 pre-9.2 (I think) if a manager/player listed you as "favoured personnel" you got knowledge of his nationality. After 9.2 this disappeared, sadly I want it back!! I had Moyesey, Rafa and Sparky (among others) who listed me as favoured personnel and my profile had their nationalities knowledge bars (and the tooltip when hovering over each gave the name of the person who gave you the knowledge). It upset me when I updated the game and lost my knowledge bars (I had knowledge of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, USA, Brazil, Spain, France, Nigeria and Italy) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
