    Player Logic

    You broke a promise to player two. Lesson: don’t make promises. And if you do, keep them.

    My guess is you’ve broken promises before and that’s why player one doesn’t trust you. Lesson: don’t make promises. And if you do, keep them.

    There's more to it than that though, as explained in the opening post.

    The whole promises and interaction system needs an overhaul because it's like whoever has written the code/script have never had a conversation with another human being before.

    Circumstances change, that is what needs to be represented more within FM.

    Have you had issues before with broken promises?- that could explain the first issue.  The second one is more straightforward and, despite him being away, will count as a broken promise .  The squad registration at the end of January is the last one so he will not be available if you get any further in the competition and he will be unhappy. 

    I understand that, mate. My point is more that the broken promise system doesn't really work. It's not taking into account an important factor in the decision making process. There needs to be some kind of conversation option where that point can be put across because it's just not realistic otherwise.

    With the first point, yeah, I see what you're saying. But again, it's the putting across the first viewpoint only to then ask to leave anyway, why offer the idea he could play alongside his teammate if he's going to leave anyway? I don't think that would happen in real life. You'd just ask to leave at the first opportunity.

    It feels to me like the logic of players in FM 24 has somehow got worse than previous versions of the game. I know this isn't a new thing as such and I can't imagine it's easy to get this 100% right but some of it is just baffling.

    Two Examples.

    Firstly, I am currently managing Rangers, 4th season in and have been playing a 4-3-3. My DM has been signed in the summer, he's been that good that I haven't been able to get the player who played in that position previously back into the team. He comes to see me about a lack of game time, more than fair enough but after me saying that the other player is just playing to well at the moment, he offers the idea that they could maybe co-exist. It's a fair point so I agree to give him more game time, but then he claims he doesn't believe I will and says he wants to leave. What was the point in the first bit if you're just going to ask to leave anyway? You might as well just ask for a transfer in the first place. I don't find any of it that realistic.

     

    Second example. I had to leave out my Australian 2nd choice right back of the Champions League squad. I'm sure most people will know that tricky feeling of having a player or two left over and someone having to miss out due to the rules. I did say I'd put him back in at the next opportunity (January) but when that opportunity came round, he was away with Australia in the Asia Cup. I wasn't going to just waste a space for a crucial game on a player who literally wasn't even in the same continent. I know I could have put him back in and saved the bother but surely that is just broken logic? Surely there is something where the player realises the situation? It's not like he's forsaken going to the Asia Cup to stay and play in the Champions League, is it?

    I appreciate that sometimes your own choices can come back to bite you, but I do feel there is a step missing in both these examples.

    Press Conference Option

    in Reviewed

    Posted

    This is an idea I've had for a while. Why not have an option at the start of the game where you can choose if you want press conferences to be in the game or not. I'm fully aware that an assistant can be sent to do them but that still leaves open the idea that something might be said that has a detrimental effect on the players and their morale.

    Why not just allow an option (similar to attribute masking) and allow the player to decide if they want them in the game or not? From a personal point of view, I find them a waste of time nine times out of ten.

    Press Conference Questions Overhaul

    in Reviewed

    Posted

    I've mentioned this before on here a few years ago and I understand it isn't a major thing.

    However, the logic of press conference questions is so so bad. I'm currently in a journeyman save managing Sunderland. Just played my first Champions League match at home to Shakhtar Donetsk. Came away with a decent 1-1 draw. First question I get asked after the game? What do I think about a young lad we have out on loan at Hartlepool United?

    This is just one example. There are loads throughout the game. It takes away from the realism. The question on it's own is fine, but not after a big match.

    Appearances and Starts Categorised Separately

    in Reviewed

    Posted

    When in the squad screen. Sorting via appearances in the League (or any competition but in this case is the league) is slightly flawed as what it actually sorts by is the number of games they have started.

    For example I have a player in my current save who appeared in league 30 games, but only actually started in 4 of them. Therefore he's ranked in that specific sort lower than a player who made 6 appearances but happened to start 5 of them.

    I know it's hardly the most important thing and not that hard to work out but still.

    Try uninstalling the graphics card driver completely and then go to the manufacturer's website and get the latest driver and install that and see if that helps.  Clear the cache and preferences folders before running the game after reinstalling

    Tried this again and still the same issue.

    It runs fine until I try and add the graphics and then press the Reload Skin when confirming changes in Preferences.

    Ok thanks- I didnt make myself clear at all-

    If the game runs ok in it original form without any custom graphics, then try uninstalling all the extra graphics and add them back one at a time and you may be able to identify which if any one is causing the issue.

    I have done this, 4 or 5 times. It's different every time.

    At first I thought it was kits, then it crashed when I only had the trophy pack in, earlier today it did it with no graphics at all.

    Like I said, I have no issue in re-downloading it all if I knew it was going to work but at the moment that seems a bit of a waste of time when it appears to be different each time.

    My game has been crashing on the loading screen since Monday, I can get it to open after uninstalling and reinstalling but it's time consuming and won't work with any custom graphics.

    I've tried the usual stuff, verifying game files, making sure all drivers are updated, deleted cache and preferences folders and I can run the game (as in so far as it will play, haven't tried playing a match yet) without the graphics.

    Is there any way to fix this? I don't have an issue in re downloading graphics but I'd rather know if this was worth the time to do as it's already eaten up a lot of free time.

    Past Position Screen

    For me I can hold shift to select up to 2 teams. If I hold CTRL I can select every team or any amount of teams. I play FM20.

    Yeah, it's been the case for a while now.

    It seems after the latest update on FM 22 it's got back to how it used to be years ago.

    Has it been removed where you can compare team's past positions throughout a season?

    Now it seems you can only see one team at a time, you used to be able to see every team's position on the same graph if you wanted.

    Each team still seems to have an individual colour like they did before so it's not like it's reverted entirely back to how it was beforehand.

    Upload match highlights FM22

    you can use an app like shareX or even OBS to do that. If it is a small clip you want to record I'll suggest shareX. All you have to do is setup the hotkey for it so that whenever you want to record something on your screen you just use the hotkey

    Oh I know that mate, It was more as a general point rather than myself. 

    Thanks anyway though.
