TheInvisibleMan 111 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Anyone else seeing an increase in penalties and red cards in the public beta? In my last two games I've seen 3 red cards and 3 penalties. Link to post Share on other sites
warlock 935 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Also just opted in to the public beta and although I've only played the first game, the difference is night and day. Managing Ipswich at the mo' (and have had a couple of months with Man Utd and Plymouth) and for the first time I can see the difference in quality on the pitch. In standard beta there was absolutely no visible difference between Man Utd, Plymouth and Ipswich - same patterns of play, same goals, same mistakes, same cross-field passing. First friendly, Ipswich vs Standard Liege, and I could instantly see that Standard had better passing, were quicker to the ball, and notably better positioning and anticipation. Even better, there were no cross-field passes, none of that endless one-twoing between FB and inside midfielder around the corner of the penalty area. For the first time in FM20 it looked like real football. Early days but I'd say freeze it, ship it, job's a good 'un! 7 Link to post Share on other sites

ajw10 1,011 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I'm not sure if this is better or just different. The crossfield passes and long shots have gone, but 1v1's and long balls over the top seem to be worse? Link to post Share on other sites

Mr U Rosler 711 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Had a nice 4132 going in the original Beta, 76 points with Leicester season one, re ran it on the opt in beta and I'm 20 points worse off, +30 goal difference now -4 Like it.

Icy 356 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) Good news after a single game with the new ME and I was very critic with old one: - No more side to side long passes from the fullbacks. - Wide players now cross instead of shooting with no angle - Less long shoots from my midfielders but still to much goals, 3 so far in two games. - More through ball attempts inside the area but still not enough - More dribbles from skilled players, huge difference here. It all makes attacking posession football more interesting to watch, as my team no longer shoot from outside but try to pass to the players inside the area. Nice to see skilled players now dribbling past their opponents in the middle of the field. Edited November 12, 2019 by Icy 3 Link to post Share on other sites

KamyKaze 22 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 After 2 matches it finally feels like I'm watching something somewhat close to football. Still think wingers and fullbacks need some work done as they are still missing opportunities to cross from being to lethargic with the ball and then end up being caught by the defenders and loose the right time to cross and have to either play the ball back or try one on one which so far is looking like they always lose it Link to post Share on other sites

It sounds like a sensible decision by your board. On that basis, I'd raise it as a bug as Man City's actual owners would probably sanction it without question 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Iwabik 163 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 One thing, did anybody notice increase in injuries?

plcarlos 48 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 ME seems to be a bit better - Not played enough games to truly see, but less switching is a good thing, and a few more through-balls But there are some graphic's bugs in the update: 1 - Critisise and Praise are still there, you just can't see them. The in-game graphics look poor: That's on Medium (GPU is upto date), which was done due to the speed issue (I'll revert that and test more) Also - Please tell my why Lloris is NOT a Natural in GK? Essecially when his attributes clearly suit a GK vs a Sweeper Keeper? In fact the attributes for a Sweeper Keeper are really poor (Passing, First Touch, Compsure, Vision), so I don't quite understand why he's deemed a better Sweeper Keeper then as a GK? (BTW, I play him as GK, with take less risks) Link to post Share on other sites

isignedupfornorealreason 201 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Opted into the beta-beta. Match engine is much better, however I'm now getting performance hits. FPS was a silky smooth 60 before, now it drops to 40-44. It's nothing to do with my graphics card, or rather it shouldn't - it's a GTX1080, so there absolutely shouldn't be an issue here, but yeah, framerate issues, stuttering and lag on the 3D at the moment.

Played a few games now, and it certainly feels a lot closer to what it should be. And I'm now converted to 3d now that it looks better and runs smoother. I'm actually enjoying watching the games now due to it not being endless crossfield passes, massive hoofs over the defence and worldies from 30 yards every game. Good job.
