Really so FM 21 being the best while 17 being a solid second? hmm. I want to give 22 a shot but I will hold my breath once the updates roll out.

Same here, I am still stuck on 17. It just feels right even if it is a bit janky in places but by far looks the best graphics wise, tried 21 and I love it but I am still stuck going back

Curious to see how FM 22's match engine is when it drops, if so provide feedback below

I'm interested to know as well

Claassen's league megapacks.

We remember these things because we go back to play it? Not a totally vague concept I imagine.

You know there is a 2d classic mode if things like fans in the stands are too "complex" for you...

FM 17 is still popular to this day for a reason...

Still stuck with the 17 version only because every tactic is balanced (stupid gegeen press) 🙃

I always end up going back to FM 17 with Claasen's mods fully loaded, such a treat

Hard to argue with that, had very little complaints about this version of the M.E besides the overabundance of slide tackles and the match ratings, this version is pretty alright with me, good job

What match engine do you think is the best? Explain why.

We need dynamic potential and ability already, some RNG makes things spicier

Not even talking about the graphics, we're talking about the flow of the game feeling natural until the "collision avoidance" being added in after 12 which in turn have seen players do some odd things over the years... 1. Players looking like they ice skate around the pitch 2. Most throw ins you make are going towards the opposing team 3. Heading being pretty useless 4. Defenders just kicking the ball out of the goal crease instead of trying to set up a counter attack in their own zone 5. (Have no real way of putting this one into words) But the "Ping-Ponging" effect where the ball is blasted and players are just smashing the ball against each other 6. Everyone being a sliding tackle expert on defense 7. Having a player in the attacking third running down the wing just to wait for the defender to catch up to him and then take a shot/pass which goes in for a corner or throw in etc. If you want to talk about which M.E looked great graphics wise then just load up 17 but no matter how nice a game looks seeing these things happen far too often for my liking can kill a bit of immersion, when SI overhauls the match engine to actually make our tactics translate on screen, balance out every formation and strategy (looking at you gegeen press and 3 strikers upfront) & maybe one day adds a collision system then sure why not but that is going to be quite a long time for that to ever happen.
