Kenco Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I'm a little disappointed that only 12 seconds of the video is devoted to the "huge amounts" of the AI and match engine that has been re-written. This, to me, is the crucial point of the entire game. Fair enough make the game look a bit prettier with more camera angles and improved ball physics once the game has decided what highlight it needs to show but the actual tactical interpretation of instructions and what your players do on the park is the absolute crux of the game.Hopefully there'll be more detail in future videos because nothing of note has been said so far except sales pitch: much better, already the best, re-writing the genre... ad nauseam. The video blog released yesterday was all about the match engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew bowditch Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I feel sorry for SI having to read posts like this. They add in a brand new game mode to appeal to new customers and to revive interest in some old customers whilst not messing about with the main game at all and people still aren't happy!!Where are they being dishonest? If they choose to do implement this into the main game in a few years time then you can complain or refuse to buy it. Until then, stop throwing your toys out of the pram and be grateful!! I dont agree with you, i also feel its a stupid feature when they could ahve spent their time concentrating on improving on what is a terrible FM12 AI. why spend all the time on new game versions when they cant even get the fundamentals of the normal game right?

paganizer Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 PaulC, come on, spill the beans.. did you manage to complete the overhaul of the tactics and player instructions (IE on/off ball instructions, DefMid dropping to defence when on ball, Proper positioning of three central defenders etc) in FM2013, or has it been pushed to 2014.

SI Staff PaulC Posted September 11, 2012 SI Staff Share Posted September 11, 2012 PaulC, come on, spill the beans.. did you manage to complete the overhaul of the tactics and player instructions (IE on/off ball instructions, DefMid dropping to defence when on ball, Proper positioning of three central defenders etc) in FM2013, or has it been pushed to 2014. There is no tactical overhaul for FM2013. We have reworked ball physics, some aspects of player physics and worked on improving general decision making of players. However as ever its always a work in progress and we will try to improve each element as we go on. I think for this release you can expect incremental improvements with each version update. I would certainly like to improve the relationship between DMC and centre halves in ball playing teams but as yet I havent had a chance to look into it. do not buy the game.. FM sucks.. So why bother coming here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 The ME vlog extols the new feature of ball physics being sensitive to weather conditions, using the example of hitting long balls into the wind. But SI have always claimed the weather affects the ball in such a way. Is this an admission that until now the ME actually hasn't responded to different weather conditions?

How do you know how much time is spent on each area? I don't think it would have taken long to create FMC, since it's just a quicker way of playing the existing game. What makes it such a terrible AI? Whilst not perfect, it's clearly the best there has ever been and not just FM but out of all football management games.

grep Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 No-one 'has' to use any micro-transactions, they won't have any influence whatsoever on the game is someone chooses not to use them. They only appear in FMC (FM is untouched) and a number of these 'unlockables' can be unlocked by just playing through - again only on the users request. If it's something you don't want to use, then it won't affect your game in the slightest Question : why a customer should have to pay for optional " cheats " when he can have them all for free with FMRTE ?

SmurfDude Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I like the idea of a classic mode. I don't have much time these days to pay attention to the million of features that have been added over the years so it'll be nice to go through a season fairly quickly while only having to worry about the most important aspects of management. Hopefully press conferences are completely removed from FMC because I hate the damn things. The match animations look nice, although I'll reserve judgement on the ME until extended videos are uploading which demonstrate the AI more comprehensively. But hey it's FM, it's already the best out there so I'm sure I'll love this years edition too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paganizer Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I find it a bit odd, you would prioritize the ME, and not work on the tactics.
