Maybe, but it's probably better to put small changes out so that people can see the effect before the next one rather a whole raft of changes that leave players not knowing which may have changed the way the ME is playing, Anyway, can't really comment yet as I'm FMT and it doesn't look like we're getting the new db until after the weekend ... after the weekend! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not in the same boat with you. Happy to see 20.3 has fix so many faults (big or small doesn't matter) within the game. I was in verge to uninstall the game for that bugs.

For all concerned - I imagine there will be further ME updates in the February update that they have promised to release. This year is the most proactive SI have been when it comes to giving ME updates (we normally only get 3 a year). I'm no computer programmer/developer - but I imagine the ME isn't exactly simple to tweak/change. Edited February 20, 2020 by Luizinho 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fieldsy Posted February 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) I have largely kept quiet in terms of this years match engine. However, since FM19 we have seen a general decrease in central play and the attacking movement of strikers, especially lone strikers. It would appear this ME is no different. Play an ME on any version FM18 or earlier and see the difference. Couple this with most teams playing ultra defensive and for me it’s a fake breaker. i have no issue with teams playing defensively against me but would expect my striker to make an opportune run, take a touch sideways and take a shot etc. We r, for play to go through the middle instead you f consistently spreading it to the wings. This game had so much potential but for me is just not fun anymore. Maybe it’s my age, maybe it’s things out of anyone’s control but still, frustrating and annoying.

Everything outside the ME is genuinely the best most immersive game ever. This ME just hasn't cut it though and it's a real shame. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just running on a standard 2013 macbook. But I had no issues with performance before, used to navigate easily and quickly. But now, everything takes a little longer to load up. Even when it was loading for a new save, it was setting up database and creating manager shortlists longer than usual my worries is, it’s improved for the higher end computers and doing so, it’s messed up the performance for average computers player search is the big one though. When I’m selecting attributes it takes forever! I select one attribute and I can’t quickly select a next...I have to wait for the game to load players and it never used to do that before unless I’m far into a save full of regens Edited February 20, 2020 by RDF Tactics Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baris28 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Thanks to Neil and Lucas, 1366 768 screen resolution problems solved in this current patch. Set piece goals were also a problem for me which does seem to be a bit better. But maybe AMC position still needs to be a bit better about influencing play and assists in central play. Deep CM playmaker seems much better at this with quick through balls from deep. As mentioned before maybe a code needed against a tight constant defense, they should break at some point under pressure and make more mistakes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagenham_Dave Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 A lot of it is very dark. The home screen where you see you manager has darkened quite a bit and the 2D pitch is definitley darker, although that's not a bad thing as it makes the dots stand out more.

Popular Post Pattric_b Posted February 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) Is it just me or does the lighting on newgen faces look improved? Also just stumbled upon this: Not sure if there were female newgens in the game previously but they look pretty good. Heres some other misc faces I've seen so far. Japanese players actually look Japanese now which is nice. And heres a side by side of the same player before and after the patch. (Newest patch on the left) Looks MUCH better! Really good work! Hopefully this continues to improve in the future. Edited February 20, 2020 by Pattric_b 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
