[Change Side Tactics?]

In Chinese forum, one mate mentioned the question about how to set "Change Side Tactics" in FMM2021.

I have to tell him, it is not possible in FMM.

But it will be great if we will have this switch in attacking page of tactics soon. If this is possible in FMM, please let me know how to do it.

 

In my imagine, this tactics will work as below.

1. When my team keep possession at right side of field, my left winger will try to keep in flank , instead of moving close to box.

2. My DLP or BPD will try to find my left winger by long pass.

 

PS: I really like this tactics when I play PES

And you also can change the role of player to impact the game.

I will take more attention to this in my next season. 

[Iphone xr loss too much battery]

I reported in alpha test of fmm2021 for battery consuming issue on my ipad mini 5 iOS14.

[Manager images missing after update]

I believe this a bug. 

So I have not updated to new fix.

I do not think this will be fixed in this year.  Christmas and new year holidays are coming.

[Players not staying back corners]

I think this is a bug.

You need set defenders stay back.

Otherwise the players you set stayback will try to go to his position instead of keeping stay back.

Thanks for the feedback - Just to let you know most of SI has broken for Christmas at this point and I don't have that device at home to test with, so I'm afraid its unlikely that anything will be looked at in that regard until January at the earliest (I'll be tweaking and tuning other areas, but obviously am limited by the devices I have to hand).

Hi Marc

This is a very small point. It will no impact my gaming at all.

Merry Christmas!

Can not wait, because my clients in US and Europe will take vacation soon then I will get more free time in fmm. Haha

[Question about clubs from one nation competing in another nation's league]

There is city information for each clyb in game database. And there is region information, too.

I believe regen will be generated based on these location information.

My comment is the scrolling speed is to fast. It is difficult to stop the position I want.

[Bad experience for scrolling]

Hi SI team and mates,

I had to say the scrolling experience in FMM is so bad.

fixture page, club squad page, tactics squad page.

I tried two options for scrollbar, fast or slow. They are both not good.

I could see acceleration when I scroll the page. I think without this acceleration may be better. I means when I stop sliding on screen, the page could stop scrolling.

Hope you could take a look!

 

[Rating for player in national duty]

Hi SI team,

I found this small issue for rating of player in national duty.

Player scored or assistanted, but his rating is not good, just 7 in normal. Some player got 8 in rating without goal nor assistant. 

Could you take a look on it?

[Players on international duties, SPL still being played]

 

Africa national cup is a nightmare England Premier League.

So I don't think it is a bug.

[Some question about tactics setting]

@Marc VaughanThanks for your replies. 

I will read it carefully. And I will ask if I could not understand.

 

[Some question about tactics setting]

Hi SI team and mates,

I played FMM(FMH) for long time, but there are some question about tactics I have not confirmed.

1. Width setting

According to the manual, this setting is only for attacking. Is this also worked for defensing?

2. Tempo 

Some friends are arguing with me about this. Is this setting only for back half field or this setting is also for front half field? And this tempo means how quick to pass ball into box? 

3. Defensive line

Do this only works when my team lost ball? Or this also works when my team with ball?

For example, my team mentality is overload, and I set defensive line into deep. Does my setting work as below?
When my team is attacking, my defenders will go up. When my team losts control of the ball, my defenders will come back quickly and to set defensive line deep. 

4. Final third 

Do these three setting only work in final third? For example, run at defense, is this instruction to tell player try more dribbling not only in final third but also in the middle of the field?

 

Please let me know more about above settings.

[3d Match Engine.]

IMO, 3D is not a key for football manager game. To be honest, The 3D performance in PC version is not satisfied. 

For me, I prefer the option to run game continuously, not piece by piece of highlight.  

[My Club's crest]

You may also update config.xlm file.

[Strike pass number]

Hi SI team,

I found this for long time, the pass number for strikers and forwards in FMM. For my team has 500+ passes, but my striker only has 7 passes.  It is very difficult for forwards who can play more than 30 pass in a match. Will you have the plan to improve this part in game engine?

 

But in real life, the pass number for strike and forward is more than 50.

[IW performance]

@Marc Vaughan

Hi Marc,

Could you share your intent  for IW this role? Is this a real support role? How to make this role more involved in match?

Looking forward your feedback.

It's a display bug I believe - should be rectified in the next update, sorry for any confusion.

This is not the answer I want, Marc.

But anyway, please fix this display bug, thanks.

[Man mark label for attcking role]

Hi mates

In FMM2021, we can ask player in defensive role to defense by man mark or zoning.

I coincidently found it is also passible to set attacking role with man mark label.

First, to set player into defensive role and checked mark mark label .

Then, change the attacking role you want.

You can see the sample in attachment. I set my AP with Man mark label.

I don't know this is a bug or it really works. 

 

[IW performance]

Hi mates,

I tried a lot for IW in my save.

IW is not key role in the formation, it works as a support role in match.

No through ball passing, no dribbling to box, no long shoot, no running into box offball, limited crossing, just short pass to MC or DR/L.

In my expectation, IW should be more attacking, such as dribbling more, through ball passing more.

Hope I could see the improvement of IW soon.

Cheers!

I have a save with Crystal Palace and I see the same of you. All team play with 3-2-2-2-1 against me. It’s an error ? A bug ? 

yeah, I am wondering 3 DC formation is so popular in premier league?

I think this is the reason why set piece design is improved in this version. This will resolve this situation. Gamer is difficult to use well designed tactics to break the defense of opponent team. But they can use set piece for example  set unrealistic corner, to win match.

Hi SI team,

There is a issue about Beijing reserve team in CSL.

Only Beijing has this issue, other CSL teams are all right.

Please help to check.

[Crossing Game?]

Hi mates,

I just finished my first save in England Premier League in FMM2021. My feeling is that this is a Crossing Game!

What ever my opponent who is, What ever the formation AI team using, they are crossing or trying to make a crossing during the match.

Especially, they are using 32221 / 32212 formation. Try to cross from their DML / DMR, and try to find chance in box or out of box for shooting.

It is so boring...
