[*Official* Football Manager 2022 Feedback Thread]

Need the trials bug fixing before i can play anymore. 

 

It's a game changer for the lower leagues. 

[When you trial players for a few weeks]

you can see their attributes, but then when you release them they are gone, is this supposed to be the case? never used to be.

There is already a dedicated thread for discussing about the stream. No need to open a new one 

This issue needs to be seen on a bigger scale, they refuse to acknowledge the problem even with the evidence there. 

[I just watched the stream]

After creating this thread (and having it closed) 

And well, well, well, guess how most of the goals were scored? Corners, Throw ins, they even start calling themselves set piece fc. 

 

But you will close this thread also because you dont want to admit theres a problem, this has been a problem with the game for a long time now but you will not fix it. 

 

Waaaaay to many goals are scored from corners and throw ins, you wont listen though. 

 

Go and watch last years stream, go on....EXACTLY THE SAME THING. 

[I haven't watched the FM22 stream yet]

But I'm guessing there's still a ridiculous amount of goals coming from throw ins (and corners right? ) Please don't ask me to post in the bugs forum or whatever because nothing has been done about this for 4 years now 

[When's the BETA out speculation thread]

My nanna is 76 years old and has been playing these games since Championship Manager in the 90s, Shes currently in hospital with a condition that is severely worsened by stress, I havent seen her today but I know my dad has taken her laptop into the hospital yesterday and she has been waiting for the beta to drop, is there any chance this could be released sooner rather then later?

[Play out of defence]

Dont ball playing defenders launch the ball up the field though? Isnt that the opposite to playing out of defence? 

[Play out of defence]

Should it be used with ball playing defenders? 

[Attribute masking]

Can you change it on a save already started? 

[Rarely used roles /duties]

What do you think are the roles/duties that you rarely see people use? 

 

[first time using libero]

Very hit and miss at the moment. 

 

Libero seems to be doing his job well, sprayin balls out wide for the wingback (has plays long range pass trait) and to the attackers at times. 

 

Problem I seem to have is the massive gap between the two centre backs when we get caught in possession, which is why I've gone with narrow attacking width which I otherwise wouldn't do. 

Unsure on roles and duties for the two centre midfielders. 

 

What doesn't look right to you? 

[first time using libero]

does this system look fine to you?

[Still too easy?]

So after a few months I did quit FM again.

• Is FM easy? depends. You can go from zero to hero with any team outside England. It's only a bit difficult cause you can't built your club like English teams can. as example, in Ireland once I grew with million and millions.. I couldn't get a reserve and a 21 team. These could come in handy a lot. Storing young talents in reserve team, etc doing matches versus Irish other reserves, etc etc.
• Also Irish, Swedish, Norwegian teams do have it difficult cause there's no gameplay option to tell the organisator of said competition to switch to wintercalendar instead of summer. (i really wants this once EL/CL grouprounds is a regulary thing)
• You really need patience cause it takes years to build up a team that can do CL/EL every winter. I think in 4 seasons my Cork City as finally able to go into grouprounds. 5th season I was even lucky to go beyond. But it takes 10+ years to make it a worthy half-finalist, etc. 
• It can take 20+ years to make a competition grow in reputation, aka selling players for million, more pricemoney and all that. 
• I won't be mad if FM just concentrated on Wales, Schotland, N-Ireland, England and Ireland. So it's cheaper, bugs can be fixed better and all that. 

What broke me up quiting FM for good. Well at last for a couple of month. I am sure I will buy FM2022 cause I am stupid, haha. 

• It's always the same creep year after year, cause we can't copy our saves to a new version
• We received the last update, but there's still 1 gamebreaking bug, youth-bug and some others.. and they told us there won't be more updates cause all concentration will go to FM22. I hate this practice and it also made me quit FM19 and FM20 when I learned about this. It's bad and SI should feel bad. Having a broken game and then release a new version. It just doesn't rhyme. Why not fix the bugs in previous version that the new version has fixed. (And yeah. I keep buying FM cause I am still longing that CL-fix with Cork City, haha.)

Is the game easy? Depends on which team you pick. Is the game fun? Hella yeah, so many thing to learn. Is the game realistic? No. Cause no way Cork City survives into grouprounds 5 years later after being promoted to the Irish Premier League. 

Edit: bit offtopic: I strongly believe Si Games need to change the way Long-term managers get some love. Let us import saves from a previous version, etc. Just like Out of Park Baseball does. Also a little bit non-realistic stuff can help, like the calender-thingy I summed up and able to pick reserve and -23 / -21 once the club has the money for it, etc. I know licenses.. but still it's a game. 

 

Importing old saves onto a new version would be ****ing brilliant. 

 

If you play games on comprehensive the next version is out before you know it.

Still works fine for me, by far the easiest method of finding loans. Request Team Reports on teams from 2-3 tiers above and Scouts will send the list to your Scouting Centre. If you go any higher than that, teams are usually unwilling to loan their players due to the quality difference. It also helps to make a decent signing or two before asking for Team Reports, since the better your squad, the higher the quality of players you can attract on loan.

[keeping costs low in LLM]

best way to find decent loans?

 

team reports arent showing who will join on loan on this version?

[keeping costs low in LLM]

any tips?

 

 

[When are you going to deal with this?]

 

[Goals from Throw-ins]

still happening, nearly every game.

unplayable.

 

are you fixing this or what?

[do most of your highlights]

start with set pieces? mainly throw ins?

[throw in GOAL throw in GOAL]

what is wrong with this game?

[Football Manager 2021 Official Feedback Thread]

set piece manager

 

that's all it is.

[exstremly high amount of AI highlights starting from throw inn (extensive highlights)]

Been reporting this for years, they seem to want to ignore this one for some reason. 

[So many goals come from throw ins]

Short throw, two touches, bam goal. 

 

Why? Every save.
