Preveza Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I have skipped FM15, and its the first FM I have skipped for years Looking forward to a less buggy and amazing experience in FM16 1. AI Squad building needs to be looked at and improved immensely 2. 'Smarter' Interaction AI and also interactions with my own players (There was a bug I saw regarding a player being angry because he did not get his promise of first team football fulfilled, and there was 1 day left in the promise, but surely the player knew he started) Just little things like this need to be improved. This area in general needs to be polished 3. Better UI. Needs to feel more 'modern'. Current design is ok, but still needs work. Feels 'Cheap' currently 4. Better AI managers. It feels as if AI manager stats are irrelevant. An amateur manager could take over Real Madrid and win the league. I feel manager stats are irrelevant. Example, if a new manager gets appointed mid season, usually that gives the side a boost. 5. Polished ME. I dont care about animations and such. I just want it to play way better. I understand there is a code happening and the 3D is not an exact representation on what is happening, so I dont care about animations. Its all about less bugs and simply more flow to the engine. Feels 'stuttery' and not realistic at all. Even the 2D pitch looks HORRIBLE in motion and feels slow. Compare it to the 2D ME in CM4, which was the best to date. Felt so smooth and clean. Hope SI can improve the 2D ME immensely . Feels the 2d pitch has been deserted since the 3D has come into the frame. Hope SI can also work on the 2d pitch 6. Just less bugs. A polished game. I will pay premium price for a game I know has been polished. I dont care about new little features like tracksuit manager and such. I know people want major new features to be implemented, but for me it is all about the game improving ITS CORE ELEMENTS. ME, AI SQUAD BUILDING, UI, and PLAYER INTERACTIONS AND MEDIA.

Tiergarten Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 If you're leaving a club you've been really successful at or after a very long time, perhaps the Board could ask you for a suggestion for a replacement? I'm think SAF-style. Also, I'm not even sure if this is already in, but even though I'm often sacked after a board takeover during my not-so-successful games (and sometimes more successful ones), I'm never approached from another club after a takeover. Perhaps that could be added? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR866Gunner Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Well need to note this before I forget.. the ability to load up a save and choose to switch between Classic and Full. Ive got to like 2020 and dont want to have to start a save again to try classic mode. It would be good if we could do this. Also the inclusion of actual U21's and U18's. Ive yet to try this years classic mode so that could be in there! This for me was always lacking as I liked the depth of the U21's and U18's.. What Nenad mentioned, although not really a tour as such, the stadium view could be expanded upon so yes you could approach the board to expand, they say yes, you then get notification of completion and you actually see the changes! It was always intriguing on LMA manager being able to have a budget to increase stadium capacity but it brought you closer to the club as a whole. Im not saying we should be able to build, just to be able to see a better representation of the stadium and facilities etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickdc Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I'm not sure about CL environment and sounds because of licensing issues, but yes, something should be done, just for the feeling that you are in finale...not just CL finale but other important tournaments...when I win some trophy, there is no feeling that i won anything, some stuff falling from the sky, players put their hands in the air, and that's it.....i think that the game is now on very good level (except AI squad building) and it's time to put some more details in the game Absolute, players coming out the tunnel, lining up, doing the handshakes (hate that IRL), national anthem for domestic cup finals, maybe even Abide with Me for FA Cup final, appropriate commentary, and then medals and cup lifting at end of game.

pauloolivieri Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I know this has probably been asked, but why not? I have a friend that has no interest at all on watching games and giving instructions to his players. He just likes to watch his team develop. Then, he always goes on holiday before the matches so he doesn't wastes his time. I'm not exactly asking for a chairman role, which would have to add many other features that are not in the game. A director would only take care of transfers, media, manager hiring, player's talk and stuff. Of course, he would have some influence (or not, depending on the manager he hires) on the team's decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

be2016 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Please oh please can you include the 'Screenflow' settings in preferences so that they are saved like all the other settings rather than having to be reset and saved every time you start a new game? I understand the settings won't know what leagues you will load but surely something like a screenflow setting stating 'view all leagues monthly', 'view results on all domestic competitions at end of season' etc. could be set and then only amendments would need to be made when starting a new game rather than setting up the screenflow every single time a new game is started from scratch. Screenflow for me is vital to easily keep up to date with the footballing world and and the leagues and results but it is such a bore and waste of time setting it up every time especially if you start new games regularly.

chocolatecoatedballs Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I want to be able to search for staff by personalities, or be able to add a column so I can see the personalities of the suggested candidates. Can we please allocate our stat points after doing a coaching course, because at the moment I hate the allocation it provides. I set myself up at the start of the game to coach tactics, but to keep it realistic I did put points elsewhere (I modeled myself on a coach I like in RL)making myself worse than coaches I can hire, but that's ok 'it was my choice to do that'. I do a coaching course and all the points go into defence coaching, because the game thought my coaching style was defensive. Now the game says my coaching style is technique! I don't know what decides this but it does my head in, especially since I had only coached tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocolatecoatedballs Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 @scott MUFC I would like to see less complaining about not being transferred when a player asks for it. upsetting squad harmonies, morale etc, because I have received no bids for a player is a tiny bit unfair, IRL a player that wanted to leave would not kick up a stink because they haven't left because there have been no bids made. All you do is tell them they have been transfer listed, but there have been no offers and he needs to work at getting a transfer. Works for me.

chocolatecoatedballs Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I would like to create custom training roles of attributes i think are important, instead of choosing like 10 attributes by choosing an individual role or a specific attribute to train, i would like to be able to make my own. An example would be i would like my DC to train Tackling, Positioning, Marking and Jumping Reach only, so i could create that and put all my DC's on it. This sounds great, I like it.

OlukitzFudgey Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 When searching for scouts on the staff search screen, it really annoys me that I have to constantly check each individuals profile in order to check the persons scouting knowledge (how many countries does the person in question has knowledge of). I would prefer to be able to check staff's scouting knowledge similarly to the way we can quickly check their attributes quickly. Either by having scouting knowledge included in the box below the attributes or by having scouting knowledge added as an option to include in the various columns settings. The way it could work is by having the name "scouting knowledge" and when we scroll to any icon assigned to the scouting knowledge we get a box appearing similarly to the way the "i" (information) acts. Although, I would prefer the scouting knowledge be added just below the attributes. For example: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrw072 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I'm sure years ago, going back to the old CM days, when you started a new game the attributes of the (same) players would vary slightly from save to save.

Vad Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Randomly generated personalities for newgen staff. Currently all their personality attributes are set to 10, making them bland and, to me, uninteresting to sign. It feels more like they're placeholders than an actual part of the game. I remember there was an issue with this for players on FM12 which was sorted in a hot-fix, and although staff personalities aren't as important as player personalities, it would be nice to see this implemented.

It might sound like a radical idea, but it's not really. What I'd suggest would be that when a (real life) player is generated in the game his stats for each attribute could start between two set numbers. For example - passing 12 - 17. So when you load up one game that players passing stat may be 13. Then the next game it may be 12, then 15 and so on. The differences could be balanced against his other stats, which would keep his CA and PA at the right levels. So he's not losing out there. I agree it's unlikely to be implemented. But it's something I'd like to see because I think it could really add a challenge to the tactical side of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players are given their CA's and PA's for a reason. Many hours of scouting is put in. Except it does happen. If a player has no attributes in the DB, they're generated at game start from the CA, and as far as I know these can vary. Of course, that won't be true for the more famous players, as they'll all have attributes set, but if someone really wanted to they could make it happen using the editor. Having said that, as a way of stopping you just looking at the same players every save, it pales in comparison to, you know, just not signing those players.

That's true! I always start at teams with no money so rely very much on free transfers. And I know in previous versions of FM when I'd search for a new player (on a free), the same players would invariably show from save to save. So the pool of players I could (realistically) choose from tended to be quite small. I think the current scouting system really opens things up now and helps to move away from this. One thing that could benefit the game further could be even stricter attribute masking to re-inforce the scouting system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rashidi Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 A tactical grid that shows both your with ball and without ball situations. The default tactical grid should just show you where your players will defend the ball, i.e. their starting zone, and another tactical grid that flips to show when you have the ball and how far forward from their starting positions they will be based on their roles. Apart from these no other information should be revealed. I've already made one for myself and I reckon it should be a simple matter of just translating what we see from the 2D screen directly onto the tac grid.

a_esbech Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Interface. It would be nice to have support for dual monitors. The way I picture it is that you can have two screens at the same time, so squad on one monitor and training on another. I'd think this would be particularly useful in matches where you can have all the stats and information on one screen and the match on another. I'm not quite sure how the interface would work though. Statistics/Match view. I would like to be able to see all situations in game. So when I'm analysing the match I can see all clear cut chances which either me or my opponent made. It could also show all of a player's involvement so you can see why the player missed that chance or this pass. Job offers. It should be possible to go via your agent to hear if another club would consider hiring you as a manager before formally applying. This would have less of a detrimental effect to your current position. It could also happen the other way around where a club might ask if you'd be willing to consider moving to their team before offering an interview. This offer could be made before they have even sacked their current manager so they have the backup ready as soon as they sack their current one (As in the case with Poyet - Advocaat at Sunderland) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skipped FM15 this season as the ME still lacking these small tweaks that would make it so much more realistic. ME needs to become way more fluid. ATM, the ME feels rigid along with the tactical options which essentially leaves us managers with our hands tied in terms of the control we have in making our players do exactly what we want them to do. I would like the ME to become more random if that makes sense. Currently, it feels to pre determined, or fixed on a set of concrete fundamentals, i.e Morale, Ratings (player skills) Does form play a difference? Does ambition play a role? Along with a whole heaps of other fundamentals. Hard to explain, but I would like to see in future versions, the game become more flexible and what we can do, and ofcourse what the AI can do. Skipping FM15 because I love FM14 and the ME in the current game isnt what I expected so I wont be giving my money away to SI this season, but am hopeful FM16 can improve in many areas including AI Squad development Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
