Also, every time you load that game save you need to check if the "freezing" works properly because sometimes if starts works incorrectly it stops "freezing" some players and you need to reaload the game save or restart the game.

Totalfootballfan Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Guys, I just want to show you some stuff that will be useful to know Here's one of my sim test with Chelsea when I used Phoenix V4 tactic As you can I got 94 pts, scored 67 goals and conceded 22 goals Now here's my other sim test with Chelsea when I use the same Phoenix V4 tactic As you can see this time I got only 61 pts, scored only 45 goals and conceded 33 goals I sim in FM Touch so it means there no Team Talks, no Shouts, no Briefings which could add additional randomness when you play in the full game Also I use FMRTE that freezes the morale and condition for all players in the league which mean there's no random injuries, no random poor morale after bad run And still as you can the results varies about 30% Could you imagine what randomness you can get it real game? When you can have injuries, poor morale and you have to rotate you team? At the moment FM20 is very random and you need to be ready for it 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
