Crewe_Alex Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hey guys, I have a very important question with FM Scout! Which do you look at more? The potential ability out of 200, or the percentage out of a 100 For example, there is a player who has a potential rating of 191, but his percentage is at 74% On the other hand, Matic, has a PA of 171 but a percentage of 79% Im really confused?? What matters the most here people Please get back to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chochip Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 don't post player names and their PAs without any warning. Some people don't want to see them. As for your question, don't trust either of those numbers. you need to actually look at the attributes of the players and decide for yourself which is more important. And also with development, the future percentage changes dramatically. So you can't rely on those. Just don't get obsessed over those numbers and try to enjoy the game.

Crewe_Alex Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thanks mate, no worries Sorry about the naming of the player Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
finestmeat Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I always favour the percentage rating,and i swear by the hidden stats too..Injury proneness max on 14,Consist. and Imp Matches on and over..this usually divides the men from the boys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ljuba82 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Percentage is better in my oppinion if you have to play player right now, but if player have higher PA, that means that you can reshape his attributes via training, so he could have little higher percentage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taytaz Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I go with the good ol' reliable scout reports [/sarcasm] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLJ27 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I look for good PA every time, combinded with good ambition and professionalism. When you say "percentage" in this case, what exactly do you mean then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyril Washbrook Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thanks mate, no worriesSorry about the naming of the player Cheers Just a hint, actually editing out the player's name will probably be appreciated more than the apology.

Edle Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Definitely PA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I go for a mixture of both. A player with PA 170 85% would probably be better than a player with 185 70% But I always check their Work Rate, Ambition, Professionalism and Determination first. Found out recently if they're low in these attributes then they take a lot longer to develop, and some may never reach their potential And if they're high in these attributes the player with 185/70% could increase their Percentage over time... I think? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last try on this one; what do you mean when you say percentage? Where do you see it and what does it mean? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baker.simon Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 there are a lot of players named Matic. i for one have no idea whom he is referring to. Me neither, not for definate anyway. But it's still doesn't detract from the fact that people *may* know and the fact that player naming without spoiler tags or a warning is not allowed. Back on topic, I never have and never will use a 3rd party scouting tool. I'm not going to preach about the rights and wrongs, it's just something I don't do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
