Thanks chaps -
I see they're all closed but I can't find the explanation you're talking about. Could you please point me in the right direction?

Dont know if this is the right place or has already been answered but why can you no longer add new topics and contribute to existing posts on the bug tracker side of the forum?

Honestly, I think I'm just going knock FM24 on the head if this doesn't get sorted. Once you notice this in-game you won't be able to unsee it and it will drive you mad. You just can't press high and consistently have high possession like almost all top teams do in the world. If the opposition manager's style of play is passing it around the back you will struggle to get 55+ possession at home, even against far weaker teams. You players have no urgency to get the ball back and ignore the opposition instructions you have set.If you want to achieve that style of football it's just not possible. There are a couple of posts pointing out essentially the same issues and SI hasn't responded or responded with just a token response.

I really hope SI look at this because it isn't working as it should be. One example is; if you tell your AMC to mark one of their centrebacks, he just wont. You can try it yourself and for some reason, he will tight-mark their defensive midfielder and 90% of the time go nowhere near the player you have told him to mark. so frustrating
-
Do SI usually patch the game later on its development or wait to improve on their next game? This is a genuine question and I'm not being sarky. Don't want to sit around hoping they will patch something and rather try and work around it. Thank you.

I do wonder what you have to do to get SI to respond. Pressing is still absolutely atrocious in the current version, Pi and Ti honestly don't seem to do anything, "Prevent short GK distribution" I'm convinced is just cosmetic, you max out all pressing settings and the whole team should be at least another 15 yards up the pitch. So frustrating. I really hope they haven't just written off patching FM24 and are just going to wait for FM25 because it's looking that way.

This one example is from a game in which I told my RCM to mark to their LCB. I know this will pull him out of position and I don't expect him to do it all the time because that wouldn't make any sense, but I expect in the buildup for him to stay close and press ( which teams do irl) but most of the time he does nothing, and often stands on top of one of the opposition midfielder and has no interest in the centreback opposite him (see attachment). I don't expect him to solely tight mark/ press the centre back but you can recreate it yourself and he shows almost no interest at all I know you may say that it is simply not compatible with the position he playing in. The thing that makes me think this is not working as intended is that at half time in this game, I decided to get my left winger to mark one of the centrebacks and tell my right back to mark their left back with the hope of pushing my team up in the press. However, i accidentally set him to mark the other right back. This led him to, quite understandably, bomb halfway across the pitch, stand in complete no-man-lands and then hold hands with my left back! ( see attachment and PKM). If my right back is willing to completely vacate his position if I tell him, why can't my midfielder press/ tight mark the centre-back opposite him? One or both of these has to be a bug.

Only a token response from SI and no sign anything will change is disappointing.

[ME24.2.0] High Pressing on Away Games is Poor
gunnersguy commented on Passion4FM's issue in Tactics
There are a few threads covering essentially the same issues and SI have barely responded to any of them. Since it's been brought up I can’t not notice it when playing the game now and it's doing my head in. If you’re away from home and the opposition team is playing 3 in the back you can just wave goodbye to high pressing and possession football because it just seems impossible. I have a theory that even on a neutral ground, such as a cup game if it shows you as the “away” team you seem to have a disadvantage. -
[ME24.2.0] High Pressing on Away Games is Poor
gunnersguy commented on Passion4FM's issue in Tactics
Second this, probably along with a lot of other people. I try to do the same with varying success, such as getting my striker and AMC to press high/ tight mark the centre backs and force them to play down their weak flank, but instead of my AMC sitting tight and pressing high on the CB he will just stand on top of one of their defensive midfielders and not press, even though I am explicitly telling him to do something else. -
SI would you care to respond? I get you would be especially busy over Christmas and New Year and I'm not asking you to change the Match Engine, just your take on the potential issue raised. Many thanks.
-
Reading what the legend Passion4FM has written, and he knows more than most, it seems to be a pressing issue just as much as a passing issue. I am watching my games just screaming at my players to actually press, even though I have all the settings maxed out. I think with a few more tweaks though this could be the best match engine ever so let’s hope for a positive response.

Just like to add another screenshot. Playing at home against 19th-placed Las Palmas who were a man down from the 4th minute still managed to get 88% pass completion! I don't care who the manager is to get 88% pass completion at the Camp Nou with a man down for most of the game and not a single shot is ridiculous. Also, the tactic I played is designed to have high levels of possession and to only get 55% in these circumstances doesn't seem realistic, especially considering in the game before I played 4th in the league and had 76% possession.

*Title should read; "Pass completion ratio too high"
