Federico Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I agree totally.I have played FM/CM since the mid 1990s on the Amiga and this is the worst version that I have ever seen. I buy superior players, have tried all sorts of tactical variations but it all still ends up the same. Difficult to score goals, to easy to conceded, demotivated players and my team down near the relegation zone. On previous versions I have won the Champions League with Huddersfield! I'm afraid to say that I am falling out of love with FM as a result of this version and fear that a game that I have loved for years may be gone forever... I'm clinging onto the hope that a new patch may come out but it won't get played too much in the meantime. FM 12 was far superior in my eyes.... Sorry but I missed your point. FM12 was superior to FM13 because you were able to win the Champions League playing Huddersfield? In my opinion this proves how superior is FM13 compared to FM12 instead...

wwfan Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Point I was making is, I'm not feeling tactically inadequate or stupid. The match engine is just ****. I hate it when people assume I didn't read their post in full before I replied and then determine that assumption invalidates everything I said. It is possible to stumble upon a winning formula in FM13. However, if you have stumbled rather than employed coherent logic, then I'd expect the football to look inadequate. If, however, your approach is logical and coherent, I'd expect the football to look excellent, as many people are beginning to experience. It's not just about winning or losing. It's about style of play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've totally missed what I was trying to say. For many football manager vets and fans who believe they have a genuine grasp of real life football tactics, the help from wwfan and co shouldn't be seen as a defeat or an insult. The problems you're having with the match engine could be caused by how your instructions are interpreted by the game. It may simply just be a case of rethinking how you translate your ideas through the Tactics Creator rather than your ideas being bad/tactically stupid.

The actual football that is possible with FM13 if you work your tactical ideas in a way the game is designed to understand them however is fantastic, and I have no problems whatsoever with that side of things - everything improved once I heeded wwfan's advice even though I wasn't a slider tweaker to begin with. Even the realistic mistakes made by players (poor passes, loss of concentration etc.) make sense and add to the match engine for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rynny Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I can make a set of tactics that work well with the game based on its (severe) limitations. The instructions I give are translated on to the pitch. I can't make the game represent a real life game of football though. I can't make players score with headers, or free kicks, if the coding of the game doesn't allow it. I can't make wingers beat the full back and actually run into space, if the coding of the game prevents that from happening. I can't get a realistic number of shots on target if the game won't let me. I can't stop my players giving the ball straight to the opposition from a throw in or goal kick if the game is made that way. That IS bad illogical football, and is nothing to do with making a workable set of tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OberonDark Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Fair enough. I won't bother you again. Just to say what Baldyloxxx is saying in calmer terms, the problem that I have and that I think most people share is that the behaviors taken by players are just unrealistic at times. Overall tactical setup isn't the issue, because no matter whether you're winning or losing games in whatever formation with whatever settings: 1) Watching your defenders not react to through balls 2) Watching your defenders not close down on wingers 3) Watching your strikers and other players pass the ball back when open for a shot 4) Watching your players throw balls in directly to opposition players Is simply not fun. I don't want there to never be any "mistakes" in the game, I want mistakes that are actually mistakes. A player can throw in the ball directly to an opponent, leading to a chance and goal, and the game doesn't mention that anything out of the ordinary happened. When game-designed mistakes are made, the commentary generally points them out, and there's even a section in player stats that lists their "mistakes leading to goal". In contrast, in this match engine, defenders can freeze in place and allow strikers to run through them with no opposition, and still get player of the game awards. The game doesn't recognize that something is wrong there, and that is a bug and unrealistic. I would be fine with my team being outplayed, but when these issues come up every match it sucks all the fun out of the game, because it doesn't matter how good my team is or what strategy I use with them, they will make these basic coded mistakes that I can't fix or influence. It's like the players aren't even trying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spart Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Well the pair of you are truly enlightened.I just see a pretty crap me, worse than the last. There's plenty of folks who have found the game to be much better to play and watch after giving wwfan's advice a try. Tweaking until you stumble upon a tactic you reckon can win you every game isn't exactly going to give you realistic football is it? That's a gamey, trial and error solution for a match engine that needs planned out, logical tactics inputted in a way that it can interpret best. You wouldn't just throw some liquid in your car, no matter how potent it smelt, and then expect it to run well would you? No one here is trying to act "truly enlightened" or think they're above so leave your defensiveness at the door before sitting down at your keyboard next time. There's no need for it. I wasn't happy with the ME either a few weeks ago but found answers to get it playing how I wanted it through the advice on these forums. Most people here just want to help!

sunnyg Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Central defenders prioritize pressing than keeping defensive line, they should decide which one is better in given situation. After the last patch, Lionel Messi is scoring one goal at a game. This is fine, but it is still below the expectation regarding current pace of his scoring. But the position of attacking midfielder (IF or APM or APM) still intercept chances for forward and inside forward-attack (even with low mentality). This makes Cristiano Ronaldo can't score like reality. In my opinion, this is caused by AM's preference of run from deep than run with dribble. I can't see Mesut Ozil dribbling.

goldengoat Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I really don't like to complain as the FM series has been sensational for years, however, I must voice my discontent with this years edition. I can see FM13 has taken a different path and now requires a different approach to be successful - which I like. What I am unhappy with is SI's arrogance at bringing out a completely half finished, half arsed game. The Beta (I know is free) was poor. The released version was unbelievably bugged and the 3rd update still consists of copious amounts of flaws. This, to me, is incredible. It's like selling a computer knowing it has a virus, or selling a book when you know chapters 4 and 6 are missing. I shouldn't have to update this game once, let alone 4, 5 or 6 times before I am able to play it properly. I would rather SI have released FM13 almost as a copy of FM12 with a few minor enhancements, then spend another year perfecting the 14 edition so we may actually enjoy the 'finished' product. There is obviously talent in the SI team, but their priorities seem to be misplaced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, FM13 will no doubt become an excellent game, but I have a feeling it will take 2 or 3 more patches to get it up to scratch by which time the football season will be coming to a close. As it has already been said, the ME has been completely re-written and so therefore is starting from scratch. We have in our hands an excellent game but with a broken ME that is being defended to the hilt by a minority. There are other cosmetic issues as well such as the lack of transfer activity etc which I guess we all can deal with, but when we have a broken ME, it really does become frustrating to watch not only ours, but the AI players do ridiculous things time and time again.

Hunter T Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Thing is welshace, it really should not be down to the consumer to highlight the glaring faults within the game. This game should of been tested thoroughly before it's release so it would not contain the high amount of flaws that it currently has. Now just to clarify something, I have uploaded several pkms and have gone into great depth about the faults I have experienced on the ME bugs forum. Although it has to be said, I only did this because I want to at least try to get some enjoyment out of a game that I paid good money for.SI has made good profit from this game and it currently has so many disgruntled fans. I think it would be a fair comment to say that this game should not have been released in it's present form. Perhaps they should of recruited more testers, maybe they should of released the beta earlier, who knows. It just feels like we're beta-testing a game that we have paid for. bullseye.

Having said that its not 'common' enough for me. It happens once in a while but not all the time.My dcs drop behind each other when they go to challenge a player or a through ball. If yours aren't doing that then its your tactics. You can't instruct your central defenders to react properly to through-balls, and you can't instruct your throw-in takers to throw the ball to their own team. As for the closing down of wingers, this works fine if you have two guys on the flank. If you have only one it is much worse, because when he is alone out there he will often want to back off if the opposition doubles on the flanks with the help of their full-backs. If you tell him to close down like hell he will often close down the full-back as well, who promptly plays the winger through on goal. You can of course play very wide and/or OI their winger to the max so that it is the midfielder who closes him down and he can back off a bit, but when this is considered as a whole tactical approach you realize that there are absolutely no advantages from playing with wing-backs in this ME, and a huge disadvantage playing without wingers or wide midfielders. You won't dominate the midfield just by having three or four players there, and even if you did it is through-balls from the flanks that are problematic, not through-balls from the centre. 5-3-2, 4-1-3-2. 4-2-3-1 narrow, 4-3-2-1 and 4-1-2-1-2.

From my game, which is obviously not going to be the exact same as everyone, i have not really noticed a problem at all, i have a few troublesome players who get injured quite often, but on the whole, good squad rotation ontop of taking off any player looking tired seems to be working for me. I have players set to pressing more and have not noticed an issue at all. Players get knocks every game, but they are not injuries as such, and a few players finish games with green crosses from time to time, again tho if noticed and acted upon quickly these rarely come to anything more than a knock for a game.

I do have a theory, though I need to play more games to expand on it. There are considerably more tackles in the game than there should be. I'm wondering whether, even though the injury algorithms haven't changed, the sheer number of tackles is resulting in more injuries, especially if a side has come out to get at you at every opportunity.

South-Side Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Well i was finishing a season with Millwall but i stopped 2 games from the end because injuries got crazy and unrealistic. Someone pointed out that it might interfere with an already started game when the patch was installed. So i say to myself OK i'll restart, take Rangers so it will be a better challenge. Same thing happens with the injuries after january i'm averaging 1-2 per game !!! If not for an extensive squad i would be toast ! Luckily i'm playing in the last league in Scotland so young and not so good players can help. But this is absurd, every game 1-2 injuries, training is at average, i'm not forcing anybody too much so it doesn't make sense to me. This is the last league in Scotland people, almost every time a game per week, not such a demanding schedule, no pushing in training, players are always rested and over 95% on game day. My under 19 team is not even playing in a league and half of the players are injured and they are on average training schedule !!! I have one player, Charlie Telfer who has since the start of the season injured 10 of his teammates in training. This is illogical !!! I see that more and more people here report this problem so it's not a singular thing or a fluke. I even restarted the game and i'm playing in like a retirement home league with good coaches,good facilities and not so demanding training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
