kiingallen Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 How do I offer players to specific clubs? When I go to 'Clubs to propose to' > 'Other' I have no idea how to select a club and then have it selected in the transfer proposal? If that makes sense.

daylight Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 No, I'm on the full version now. It's not clear at all, when you go to quick subs, it doesn't even show the positions of the players on the bench, I'll get a screenie in a mo... Unless you either know the player, or click on them (or at least hover over the 'i' button), you have no idea just from looking at that what positions your subs are - unless I'm missing something really obvious here). Not only that, but there's no quick way to find out how suitable they are for the role you're going to sub them into. I was about to post something for Dagenham_Dave but I see he is having a timeout.Anyway, looking at his screenshot is it maybe possible he is running the game with his text set to zoomed in 125% and that is why it is cutting off the positions of his subs? I just did a check on this and it seems when running the game with text zoom in 125% it does cut off the substitutes position, something for SI to look at.

kyletwist Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Don't know if this is a bug or not but Fernando (Man City) out paced Gibbs (Arsenal) with Gibbs having a 15 yard head start. Kind of ridiculous if you ask me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 After a quick look this morning before work my overall impression is pretty good, I found the sidebar much better than I thought I would but the tactics screen is a lot more confusing to use now but that may be because I'm just used to FM2104. The 3D match engine lighting and pitch textures are a bit disappointing tho, it just looks all a bit too drab, flat and somewhat dated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerud Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 So, I haven't actually gotten to playing a game yet. I'm working on setting up filters, but whenever I ask to Auto Size a column (only one, not all), it affects other ones as well. It's been just over 2 hours and I can't figure out how to get my filters to actually show everything that I've placed in them. I remember this being difficult in FM 14...I just didn't remember that it was this difficult! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heini92 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 On a very positive note: The game seems to load much quicker for me than FM 14 and 13. Don't know if that's the case for anybody else, but I'm thrilled with that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikopol Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Do you have a link to said post? No, but i'm willing to post my concerns here. I only just saw how active you are in this thread right now, which i appreciate. http://puu.sh/cnYyJ/8196564ee9.jpg Here we have FM14, on the right side i can access everything i need to create and manage my tactics. I have direct visual feedback and can change things with a few clicks and imagine easily how it will play out. All the other options are on the right side too so that i can switch around fast and without making long ways with my mouse (it sounds ridiculous but that has a huge impact on feeling comfortable with an UI). On the left side i can look at player information and look at my squad structure, can see who is fit or needs match fitness or is injured to organize my substitutes. This was great UI design if you ask me and maybe SI didn't know how functional there tactical screen already was. http://puu.sh/cnYLU/f2867eb38c.jpg Here is the new UI. The first thing that we see, and the most annoying thing is that almost all functionality has been stripped from the tactical visualization. I can still click on it and change things but as all directly visible information has been passed to the right side it's tiresome and inefficient, so the right screen is basically useless. But the shift to the left side has taken away all the space to display information, just look how much space every player takes up, i can fit much less players on the screen without scrolling than in FM14 http://puu.sh/cnZcv/515964920d.jpg Here's a side-to-side comparison. On the right side we have efficient use of space: Roles, duties, team instructions, mentality, substitutes etc+ Visualization (!). On the left side we have bloated space, weird icons (those circle icons are really bad, i have to look very close to see the difference between almost full and full) and there is no way to see the stats + the stats that the role requires. This might seem small and i know that i will adapt to it but it's an unneccessary step back, i hope i could explain what bothers me about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

borobadger Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 A suggestion - The drop down when picking figures should be the big bar, and the bit for manually typing it in should be the small bit, not the other way around as it is now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAV2 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The new tactic screen is a horrible jumble of information. Picking players is a lot harder than it used to be on the older versions of the game. That is a minor issue, over time il get used to it and it will become second nature, the main issue i have however might be a deal breaker. I feel the new layout takes away the joy of seeing your newly created tactic. Its too wooden and lifeless to me and has taken away the immersion i had with this screen. The formation pitch is as boring as it comes with no charm whatsoever! I loved seeing i was playing an AMC Playmaker on Attack duty with a Poacher up in front. Now all i see is a shirt with a dumb circle next to it. It looks childish. This screen is where most of my FM hours were spent and now I dont want to even look at it. Its like coming home after 2 weeks away to find your girlfriend 100lbs heavier with a face full of acne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluedude Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Liking the new Tactics screen, having players move up or down the pitch depending on the player role assigned gives me a better idea of the team shape. However, missing the ability to click on a player and easily pick another squad member who can play in that position/role. Match engine feels like it is representing my tactics and squad roles better, nice to defenders stick legs out and mopping up balls that roll past them. One of two weird things have happened with players running back towards their own goal, sure you guys will have that patched soon enough. Lastly, game is working very well on Linux, no crashes or problems experienced so far...thank you again for continuing the Linux support. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty the first time I seen it I was like "wow", against the dark skin(which I love by the way)it does come out of nowhere, I think it is just the amount of colours shown at once. Maybe just one colour would be enough, I get you guys are trying to do it by using the colours of whatever team the news is from but it is a bit too flashy.

BoundedCascade Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The game is currently unplayable in its current form. It makes my driver go crazy and is constantly making my graphics card fail.

Nikopol Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I want to leave some positive feedback too. I can't judge the balance of the game yet and crosses/long passes seem slightly overpowered but i love how i can see 2 different tactical systems play out on the pitch, that was rarely the case in FM14. I don't know why it appears that way but i can clearly see my tactical instructions being followed by the team and individual marking seems to have more of an effect too. Loving the ME so far even if it still needs some balancing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
