Rashidi Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 4 hours ago, Obaaa said: when some of the big Twitch/YT streamers are voicing some negative thoughts about the game it isn't great. Maybe full release will see some more positive remarks. I would try the demo out myself. I stream as well and while I have criticised the game for lacking headline features I have been very happy with the match engine. If there are specific challenges people are facing and issues they are having with certain styles of play I am more than happy to help. To be fair sometimes people put too much faith in content creators assuming they know the game inside out when there are others out there who are silently playing the game and having fun. My advice to most people during the beta is always the same. Don’t import a tactic, start from ground zero. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnompenhandy Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 15 hours ago, akkm said: Actually funnily I want to manage lower league teams but the purpose is to be an actual manager...u know...to be able to influence what they do on the pitch...coaching them to move better positionally around the pitch to receive the ball to break a press/pressure from opposition and have my players move into pockets of small space inside to work the ball up the pitch slowly to get into good positions higher up the pitch to create higher value chances and create openings. At least I want them to try it...if they try and fail all that is on my management and coaching...which is how it should be. I can try and address it with more time on the training pitch to work it out. I can try and address it by getting better technical players with good mental attributes I can try and address it with adjusting my tactics then if all that fails but tactically that's all on me as the football manager. I shouldn't have to be subjected to old school views that non league football = hoofball/messy play. I watch plenty of non league football and many teams try more and more to play it out from the back and pass it around patiently and have done well this way. Even say Salford in league 2 changed manager this year and passing completion rate has gone up from 68% the previous 2 seasons to 80%+ this season. So coaching on the training ground and philosophy has changed a lot in terms of how they play and how well they control matches. This is what a manager can do at any level. The main issues with players a lower level would show up as they play teams from much higher levels but playing at same levels good play can and should unfold given the right philosophy and good coaching. So currently in FM there are issues with balance too much favouring chaos/battling midfields and the quality possession game isn't being well simulated. After all this game is football manager and a manager needs to be able to have his way of playing manifest itself on the pitch. Its success will depend mostly on the quality of the players at his disposal but quality possession football over the years has usually shown itself to be consistently the most successful...sure there will always be defensive teams/high work rate teams/pressing teams that will do well and win but the common theme throughout is good possession teams playing cohesively and creatively consistently do well. Of course they will have to marry that with good work rate and effort (especially in modern football which FM is trying to replicate and its clearly not a finger click) but that's the basic of football...pass and move is key to consistently doing well. Klopp/liverpool woes this year and before show its pep views of football that will win the war...just as it did over jose mourinhos view of football...and just as it will in 100 years time as well. FYI...I don't necessarily mean extreme tiki taka possession football either there re pep. FM has to get this right first and foremost and then blend in the chaos factor on top...but key piece is good possession football. From that base everything can be built into it. Fingers crossed we get that on release this year. FYI @phnompenhandyur post re you managing loch ness and your research and prep was awesome dude You raise a good few points here. I've taken to watching a lot of North Caley and lower highlights on YouTube, and it amazes me how closely it approximates to LL football on FM, and far more so with FM23 than incarnations from a few years ago. This 'new feature' that people are raving about - 'chaos' is how football has always been in LL. I love seeing passing moves breaking down with wayward, undercooked or overcooked passes; I don't want to see tiki-take at my level. But a key point us LLaMas have to take into account is that however limited our players are, the league opposition is similar. So your striker with Finishing of 4 might still score loads against weak defences; your CDs with pace of 5 might also perform well against poor strikers. The "problem" I find is that it's too easy to substantially strengthen your squad compare to the AI league rivals, hence those Journeyman saves I watch on YouTube soon become boring with promotions every season. That's why I've set myself the rule of no recruiting. Training - in the lower leagues where you have zero facilities, equipment or coaching skills, and you have 4 training slots a week, it ought to be the case that training has very little effect on players (I see Salford, a full-time professional club as higher than LL - perhaps I should clarify my style as LOWEST League Management!). I try to recreate the limitations by having only 4 training programmes that I drill each and every week. They are General/Attacking, General/Defending, Physical/Re...[forget] and Match Prep. But the key, really, is to have a very tight squad such that everyone gets lots of gametime. That's a huge risk - injuries and desertions mean as the season goes on you're filling square-shaped gaps with round pegs, but again, I see that as realism. tl;dr I think the general point I'm trying to make is that I can't comment on how the ME plays out with higher-level clubs which expect technical precision, but at the lowest levels you can be forgiving of ME limitations as your internal narrative requires loads of mistakes from your players. Having said that, the ME would be a huge problem if aspects were overpowered such as too many goals from short corners, or amateur fatties and 15-year-olds being able to gegenpress for 90 minutes throughout a season. Again, if there are exploits like that, I'd limit myself to not using them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question i got asked about any of it was when i expected the random youth player to be back, not even a question about how i intended to move forward without any of my strikers.

XaW Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 9 hours ago, janrzm said: 100% Agree with the notion that you should always make your own mind up and what breaks the game for one person might be practically invisible to another. I also think we should acknowledge that when most individuals express a negative opinion on the game it isn’t necessarily to influence others, it’s to make a point to the developer in one of the few ways they can. I would, but as my former posts shows, on Steam 85% of reviewers have have a positive response. So I would say "most individuals" express a positive opinion, rather than negative. Just because those with the biggest reach are negative does not mean they represent the majority. However, they are often able to influence a number of users, but they also get more clicks by giving negative reviews. I'm not talking FM only here, but the internet as a whole. There are many more "internet personalities" that give negative views rather than positive, simply because it gives more clicks (and therefore money). That's not to say that some of the criticism isn't valid, of course it is and the game has a lot more potential to grow, even if there are probably as many different views as to what should change, as there are posters here. Sure, look around what others say, but if you try the demo and like it, I see no reason to take the opinion of others over you own preference. I would say the same for the other way around as well, if everyone praises something that doesn't mean you must like it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know if that is a good idea because you will always have to plug it in whenever you want to play and you can have issues with cables etc. I don't know what laptop you've got but isn't it better to get an internal SATA ssd. To answer your question I don't think you can only move the graphics folder, you will have to move everything in the document folder including you save games etc. once that is done you have to go to steam click on the game then right click and click on properties and in lunch option copy this --user_data_location="path". replace path with the location where you copied the files Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, I had fun with No Man's Sky at launch even if it was far from what was promised, so I didn't hang onto the social media frenzy regarding games back then either!
