Mindset Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 No.1: I noticed that in my game save (in 2021) there are no regens who's name ends in 'inho, which is quite frequent IRL. No.2:Regen GKs lack agility. I can count with my fingers the number of Regen GKs in the whole save with 16 or over in agility Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipknot67 Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Unneeded abuse there. Fair enough, my sarcastic tone perhaps wasn't the the most constructive way I could have got my point accross, if I caused any offense by it, it was unintentional and I was simply trying to say that regens being predominately one footed is not something that really needs pointing out, as it's been a known issue for quite a while now.

Kickballz Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 'inho' means 'little' For example, Ronaldinho is actually called Ronaldo, but was nicknamed Ronaldinho (little Ronaldo) to distinguish him from the more famous Ronaldo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elsgouro Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 From about 1300 regen GKs found (using the game's player search), noone has the more than 16 agility, while more than 900 have less than 10. I'm in 2016. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmaxtim Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 so many great regen players lack natural fitness..... but considering the state and health of our younger genration maybe this has been considered! Also the goalie problem i have noticed, im currently in 2021 with arsenal and there is only two great regen goalies and they both are massively flawed, one has no agility, and another is lacking concentration and strength. anyone else find this?

I'm in 2016. I think player search is not a good way to find, as many of the lesser known players will have attribute masking over their agility. I never use 3rd party scout program, perhaps someone that is familiar with using the external scouting program give us some light here on regen goalkeeper agility.

LeoVieira Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Yeah, regen GK's are completely screwed up. There's also: - Too many fast defenders. - DM's with low "marking" attribute. But their technical attributes like "Dribbling" and "First Touch" are great, in the history of football there were only one Paulo Roberto Falcão and one Fernando Redondo, but in FM, once you get in 2020 or something, there are hundreds of them. - CM's that are fast and strong, CM's are usually slow and weak. - Too many CM's with high "Tackling". - Wingers with good defensive attributes. - Too many winger with super high "Crossing". - Tall striker that are skilful, the fanboys would say "Have you never seen Ibrahimovic?"; yeah, Ibahimovic and who else? Short strikers with good "Heading" attribute. Actually striker are all the same, no matter their height or w/e. - NO set piece specialists - Low natural fitness - Players with high technical attributes but poor "Flair". In 2027 the only player with a PA higher than 170 and has "Flair" 20 is Marquinhos. BTW, not a regen. - Top players with low "Determination" - You rarely see defensive players with high "Aggression" and "Bravery" - Actually, players of every position have low "Aggression" and "Bravery" - Too many white players that are fast and strong. You know only black players are fast and strong at the same time. - Nationality/race/whatever doesn't do any difference to the player's attribute actually. - Too many defensive players with super high PA (like +185). Just a few things i noticed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeoVieira Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 There's not magic barrier. But it's a fact that most of over 190cm tall strikers are purely good finishers/headers, not the most skillful players out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BathPalace Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Having looked at the regen keepers on my game (sadly only using player search) they don't just have low agility, there physical stats are usually woeful on the whole (with the exception of jumping). Its like a whole team of Paul Robinsons are being produced. I can only guess that they are trying to represent that goalkeepers are usually not as quick, agile as outfield players etc. Idk though.

Thank goodness 'keepers keep going into their late 30's then. LeoVieira has a very useful list of regen flaws. Can others confirm all or many of these issues?

monkey99x Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 surely with all the regen goalkeepers being poor agility-wise, it means everyone plays from a level playing field. yes obviously you would like some top-notch keepers ala casillas and buffon, but if its not to be then we'll have to do the best we can with what we've got.

Ryknow Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 1. So many french regens having the same names. 74 regens with last name of Leclercq, 10 with Nicolas Leclercq, 7 with Christophe Leclercq. Just alot having the same last name and not many variations of the first name. 150 regens with last name of Garnier. Same kind of deal as above. Theres more last names that include alot of players, but cant be stuffed sorting through them.

Administrators Neil Brock Posted March 31, 2009 Administrators Share Posted March 31, 2009 We're aware of the Leclearcq/Garnier issue and it's something we're looking into. On the whole Newgens have undergone a lot of developments - I don't think judging by some of the comments listed here people realise how difficult a balancing act it is to get generated players looking as they should be. It's not just a case of 'all midfielders should have good stats in the following areas' - every player has to have some levels of induviduality else we'd just have a bunch of carbon copies. The system is always under review and is something we're striving to get right. I agree that the goalkeeper regens aren't perfect but some of you are claiming some stats which aren't good enough for goalkeepers (such as agility) aren't actually used by goalkeepers. Agility does not do anything for GK's, all that is encomposed in reflexes. Anyway as said, the Newgens are something we are constantly looking at and we appreciate the constructive criticisim.

It's all well and good, but there have to be some exceptions to this general rule or we'll have a bunch of players that can never exist in reality. Such as the midget centre halves that can't jump to save their lives. Such players do not get to play in this position and if they can't play anywhere else they wouldn't even get into a half decent youth team. In FM however even top youth academies are full of them. There has to be some sort of minimum values for certain attributes which would then make the game assign suitable positions to players (or the other way around if that's how it works).

monkey99x Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 i don't understand the "agility does not do anything for GK's, and it being encompassed in reflexes" bit. if agility is encompassed in reflexes...why have a stat showing agility? and surely agility is important for goalkeepers and different to reflexes? if you're not agile, you can't jump and fling yourself high about the goal....which is different to reflexes, as reflexes should surely be how quickly a GK responds to shots? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted March 31, 2009 Administrators Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yeah of course certain stats are more related to certain positions and this is shown with the regens that come through - although of course there are exceptions (a midget CB as you've said for example) by and large midfielders can pass, defenders can tackle and strikers can finish. As said though, the system isn't perfect but I do personally think it has improved dramatically over the past few versions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
