  1. Positional play changes have been nice but noticing some problems when transitioning in a defensive shape.

    #2, my RB (IWB-S), goes to close down. #30, my CDM, on DM-D, should be holding position (part of the role). I want him to cover for their CAM.

    Instead, he goes to cover the RB, leaving their CAM open for an easy pass. As my left CB is marking 11, me LB comes to close down. The pass into space for #7 is on here.

    ME is better, but I don't like what I see from a pressing POV (lots of dull passes between CBs and no team wants to press)

    Something is either off with the pressing, or with the stats. The spread of OPPDA values is way too narrow. Just seems like all teams are playing much too similar, with the better teams just having more of the ball translating to more wins.

    Ran all England leagues on full detail and the spread is very similar all the way down the leagues.

  3. First week of preseason, players come to me and ask why I let our best player go on a transfer. This player was on a contract that was going to expire at the end of the season, which would have been 1 week into preseason. He wasn't going to stay, was way to good for my team, ended up going to League 2 from VNS.

    Told my players it was better to let him go for something than on a free. Their response:

    Seems very unrealistic...

  4. First season into a VNN save now and at least in LLM management, FM24 is a big difference from 23.

    Pass completition rate is way to high, with too little range. FM 24, 88% to 81%. FM23, 80% to 65%. Top 10 in the league are all 90%+, and all happen to be centrebacks, or CDMs, with one right back.

    Lack of long passes has meant high line, high press, high intensity has been my go to tactic. I have been unable to make a direct counter attack tactic work this year, however I have my team playing like prime Liverpool pressing high, and rarely turning the ball over from a  wayward pass, with short passing, high tempo.

    I do like the positional play. Very easy to make a 2-3-5 in attack now with IWB. Only which roam from position wasn't hardcoded in support.

    Unrelated, but justs noticed I can't see a players form information without adding them to a shortlist. However I can go and look at the match for every game and spend the time to figure it out myself. Why force the player into this tedium to access inforation that is available ingame at only the cost to the players time?

    It makes sense to me when I consider the real-life scenario. The match is going on, the player gestures from afar. The assman reads the gesture one way, you read it another. Whose judgement do you trust in this situation? Of course, you can wait for a break in play and ask the player to come over - by that time he might have run it off, or sustained an injury that will keep him out for 3 months!

    That makes sense, but in this case the physio was on the field with the player. There is no interpretation there, unless the staff never went through the different hand signals for subbing off.

    The top one is your assman's assessment. He's not always 100% correct. The second one is the player - as far as YOU are assessing him!

    In both the players opinion is referenced. He is indicating that he wants to come off, and he feels that he can shake off the knock. I understand both can be true, but in that case, the tactics screen should indicate that even though he thinks he can play on, he wants to come off, in my opinion.

    Unless the game is leaving the interpretation of what the player is saying up to the ass. man to decide, which is absurb. The player, ass. man, and myself all speak the same langauge, it should be clear if he wants to come off or not.

    Here we have some of the GPG analysis over a 3 year sim. Please note it's a small sample size, and for references columns 23/24, 22/23, 21/22 for real life data this is then respectively matched against season 1, 2 and 3 respectively on the save. As you can see, the GPG difference is quite high in some countries and other leagues very near or even less. I was going into this expecting ALL to be higher than average.

    I also did an incredibly tiny test with the QME.

    All leagues were ran on full detail, apart from of course L1 for the QME test.

    Do you have pass completion stats by any chance? Seem way to high in my league but haven't simmed the others in full detail.

    I think it's ridiculous that we're nearly in February and SI are being this quiet. People reported bugs like the dribbling issues months ago, and there's other bugs reported back in the "beta" - still not fixed months later, and no communication. SI are quite lucky they have no competitors.

    Forgetting cutting inside, still can't assign my assistant manager to press conferences...

  9. The idea that we need to wait for the final patch to be able to assign our Assistant Manager to press conferences, if that fix is even coming at all, is quite frustrating.

    I understand that changing the ME is a big task, but surely the above bug doesn't have that many interlinked pieces. Perhaps it does though.

    I look at games like Path of Exile and Factorio as pretty good examples of developer engagement. Frequent small balancing/bug fixing patches and good engagement with the community.

    Yeah sorry you may well be right although Ryzen is renowned for its excellent performance from their cores/threads. 

    These 12th gen Intels though, from an FM perspective at least, look exceptional in most typical use cases

    That's true. Much big cache in the 5600X, might be a factor.

    Considering a 5600X would still cost $150 more here, 12400 still represents good value especially in FM. Will be interesting to see how the 12th gen i3 CPUs compete. 12100F is only $179 in Aus compared to $299 for the 12400, and will still hit 4.3 GHz over 4 cores/8 threads.

  11. Started pricing up an upgrade yesterday and quickly realised the new mid range intel offerings were a good value proposition. 12400F, B660 motherboard and ram for $634AUD.

    Type: Desktop

    Model: Custom

    CPU Model: Intel 12400F

    CPU Base Frequency: 2.5 GHz

    CPU Turbo Frequency: 4.4 GHz

    RAM: 16GB

    RAM Clockspeed: 3200 MHz

    GPU: NVidia GTX 1070

    Graphics Level in 3D: High

    Storage Type: SSD

    Benchmark A: 00 min 56 Sec (Average of 2 runs, 55s and 57s)

    Benchmark B: 04 min 15 Sec (Average of 2 runs, 4min 07s and 4min 23s)

    Benchmark C:  15 min 47 Sec (Average of 2 runs, 15 min 23 Sec and 16min 11s)

    Was impressed with the results until C. Checked the load while running the test, maxed out all cores, didn't get too hot.

    Bit disappointed it gets blown away buy a 5600X here.

  12. Trying to justify upgrading my now ancient rig so figure I'd run it to see how much of an advantage I'd gain moving to a 12600 or 5900x.

    2500k 4 threads the really weakness on the last test.

    Absurd ease of 1 touch passing and moves which see teams hold onto the ball for passing phases that Barce and Man City would be proud of

    Went and tried a few matches in FM21 to see how it compared, and it is night and day. VNN/S level teams in the range of 70-80% passing accuracy, don't think I've seen a single team average less than 80% in FM22.

    The Clubs with the best Youth Recruitment will generally pick up the best Junior talent from that Nation first, the scale of that talent being determined by the Nation Youth Rating and Game Importance. The lower the Youth Recruitment the further down the pecking order a club will find itself. Two clubs with identical Youth Recruitment will be sorted by Club Reputation. Being lower down this pecking order does not mean quality Newgens cannot be produced, it simply lowers the chances.

    Just regarding this, is the nation the level that youth players are pooled at on, or does local region have an impact?

     

    Say for example looking at the Lombardy region in Italy, versus the Sicilia region. Both Milans are in the Lombardy region, whereas the best clubs in terms of youth metrics in Sicilia are Palermo, Catania, and Messina, but all far from the levels of both large Milan clubs.

    If you check the tactics page during the game you will find that I am right, unless you have the ass man in charge of OIs

    During game I don't see any OIs in use unless I move all the players from the "individual player" to "all players in this position" OI. And that is setting my own OIs, not the Ass. Man.

    If I set the OIs to "all players in this position" instructions pre game, it works, but during the game, and subs from the other team mean I need to go in and change the subs OI.
