[Minimum Acceptable Pace]

I just had Sam Lammers score 35 goals with Eintracht as an AF with 12 12, so I'd say my strikers are good with that. I think an overlooked physical attribute often is agility, especially for defensive players because I think that it's quantifying the physical reaction speed to events, as opposed to anticipation which is the understanding of the flow of the game. Lammers has 14 agiltiy which is pretty great, I wager that is what's allowing him to score so much while being on the slow side of AFs

[If you only watch matches on commentary only - you’re not really a football fan]

I still have very fond memories of commentary, "Text Modus" for the initiated, in the old EA Sports FM Hotseat because the 3d engine in those sucked hard and the commentary was really funny

[Can PA for a player drop? - I thought it was locked]

vor 33 Minuten schrieb properdisco:

if PA is usually locked, then what's this I've been hearing about dynamic player potential? I have noticed more fluctuation in the potential star rating than in the last game, so assumed the PA number which I do not read would be doing the same. Is it just the assistant manager's opinion that is fluctuating?

I think you might be confusing it with the new dynamic youth rating of countries, not players

Gotta say I feel like the ME regressed with the latest patch. It definitely was too easy before but it didn't exactly become harder, just different. I can't remember which version over the last years had it but it's just vertically pinging the ball to your AF who has to round the keeper or he can't score all over again, while every second short pass is misplaced and almost no other finish bar wondergoals or the keeper falling over on the line in front of a 30 meter shot results in a goal. I probably wouldn't be playing rn if I hadn't secured a backup copy of the game files pre patch since it's just so boring to see the "meta" of the game tightened up in this way. That the Messi free kicks were nerfed is pretty good though.

 

Edit: It's also interesting to see that there aren't really any new "moves" by your team unlocked by the ME fixes this year so it probably was working pretty well in SI's eyes before the patch which is nice to see. Maybe it just needs to be balanced out now

I think that's basically the meme of the horrible financial administration of barca, which is true in real life as well -> see their struggles to register 25 players for La Liga.

[Multiplayer - Watching other peoples games being cut?]

Why was the feature that you could view matches of other managers on the same day cut? I play with 2 friends in the same league and now the two not playing have to sit around doing nothing and passing the time until they can play. I understand that it's not possible in reality but I really want to see how my friends play! That takes a lot of the excitement and hype from multiplayer for me and I hope that this feature makes it back in time for the full release.

[Football Manager 2020 Pre-Release Beta *Official* Feedback Thread]

It's as close to the max as possible, I've played almost a complete season like this and won most of the games. I mean the new beta isn't like superbad, I just think it's a step in the wrong direction because defenders still make the same mistakes, attackers just score less of the exploited mistakes, which keeps the suspension going for longer in a game but isn't what I'd like to see. That is obviously purely subjective but I feel like that is the right place to write feedback down.

I feel that the opt in beta is way worse tbh. It just feels like fm19 all over again with players being comically slow and always crossing/shooting even though a player is standing next to them. Then the fluidity of attacking that was a key feature of fm20 is just gone, as is the excitement of watching an attack. I think that this beta is just a bandaid fix of our issues but was handled by nerfing the capability of attacking players instead of buffing defenders. Issues of FM19 like headers finding an opponent more often than not are back again as well.
