Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 if you had 2 teams, 1 full of players all with CA 175 PA 180 with Consistancy 10 and big match stat of 10 the 2nd team would be full of players with CA 150 PA 155 but with consistancy rating 20 and big match rating of 20. if they had 2 manager exactly the same playing the same way what team do you think would come out on top over a season?

Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 im hung over today, so dont feel like changing all those players in the editor to test it lol, but im thinking the 2nd team would mop up any day of the week, i think those 2 stats are worth more than CA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Consistantcy is how often (out of 25) they perform to their best. It wouldn't nessarily be an important match. Then there's fitness, morale, actual attributes (CA is irrelevant), form, motivation, luck, etc. It could go either way, but I'd imagine the first team would win it as they're going to be 175 CA players 10 times out of 25. Chances are several of them will perform to their best, and even if not then there will be moments of brilliance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harryseaess Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 IMO, team 2 will win. But the only way to find out is to experiment! . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 what about the individual player stats? leave them at 0 and let them get filled in automaticly or not? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 what about the individual player stats? leave them at 0 and let them get filled in automaticly or not? Leaving the attributes blank may have the unwanted effect of unbalancing the distribution of player ability points. Although it'd take a while to set up, you're best filling them all in yourself. Do each team identically, then let FM readjust them according to CA. That way the experiment would be "valid". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 ok, around what value out of 20 should i set them at tho? shall i set every stat at 15 or mix them up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Mix them up. Give CB's the correct abilities for their position; the same for DM's and CF's.... But make sure you make each team's players identical and then FM will correct them. That way it'll be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 ok im gonna choose 2 clubs form the prem and set there club stats and manager stats the same so they play the same way also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Make sure to set the club reputation as equal, as well as bank balance/transfer funds available (possibly ZERO so they can't buy anyone right away). Then set the club Chairmen's attributes identically as well. In fact, alter each team's stadium so they have the same capacity and attendance. In order for the experiment to be relevant, you'll have to make every single thing about each team IDENTICAL from the ground up. The only differences can be the things you pointed out in the OP: Player mentality and CA/PA That means each player must also be the same age as the corresponding player from their counterpart. Hope that makes sense Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMagpies Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Positional Ability has far more relavence than than ca/pa an 50% DC with 175/175 isnt as good as a 75% DC with 150/150 but team B would probably just edge it most times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 That's why I said everything must be identical, then let FM sort out all frills. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 they will both play at wembely and be Rivals, i have also set a couple rival team players to dislike each other for added spice.. bank balance is set the same, done that, after creating the goal keeper's i ran the game to see how the players stats would differ, they only lowerd a couple by 1 stat here and there, i dont think thats enough.. What im doing now, players on CA 180 im giving 18 or 20 for key stats and the CA 150 im giving 2 or 3 less, if i dont do that the only difference will be the 2 hiden stat's.. iv set both clubs and managers up, 4 GK's and 4 FB's now moving onto CB's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 It only lowered by 1 or 2 at the start. If you were to play on, the attributes would "level out" to a more CA acceptable level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 would they? shall i set them identical then? you are sure cos if not there will only be the hidden stas difference and thats obvious who will win lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Yeah - if you set a player to CA/PA of 200/200 and set all his abilities to 5 or something silly like that, shortly after starting the game and continuing time, his abilities would start at 5 but then rise up to meet his CA of 200. I'm not sure which abilities would rise, mind. Hopefully it would be position-specific; a striker SHOULD gain more in finishing and composure. But, knowing FM, he would probably end up with 15's across the board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 well is i set the 150CA key stats to 15 or 16 and the 180CA stats to 18-19 at least then there will be a little bit of difference in the player's over all skill's they wont be able to improve because they are maxed out, they can only get worse with bad training or injury's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 set all player injury proneness to identical as well, it has to be fair y'see Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 my fingers got sore and cramped up using the mouse so didnt get time to finish every thing off... im running an initial test and it's going massivly in favour of the high CA 180 team, they are matching Man U in 2nd place while the lessor team are doing ok in 7th at the half way point..

Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Maybe their mental strength will show through in the run-in, where they won't crack under pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Well it ended up a very close race, Now the B team which was the team with Ca/150 and 20 for consistancy and big match stat, it was there home form which cost them, there away form was 4th best in the league..

Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 That's not a bad campaign, and finishing only 9 points behind the much higher PA team certainly shows the benefit of high mental attributes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 im running it for a 2nd season and see what happens. a couple players made it into the england squad, RB and Goile from the CA 180 team, proves England's week area i guess also seen as there hoem ground was wembely, i set there average gate at 50k and set a maximum upto 100k the 2nd season they are averaging over 70k per week in attendances Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Good idea. I reckon by the second season, team B will have formed strong bonds with their team mates and finish better/higher. Just a guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 there is a massive differance in player value, the high CA players reputation has risen alot faster hence there value is over double that of the low CA players.... 2nd season complete, A Team finishes 5th again while while B Team droped to 7th. A Team sacked there manager on 18/3/2010 despite beeing 5th, H Redknapp took over.. I'm suprised because none of the players have been sold on even after 2 season's, the only players to servive the england set up are Owen and Gerrard. the CA 180's have taken over the team..
