Tony Fallows Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Regarding scaling, there is still scaling in the 3D ME, but it is not as pronounced as it was just after the release of the game. Back then people complained that short players looked fat and tall players were too skinny, so that was toned down a little. As I've said, we're working on a new system currently. The current ME actually has far fewer dribbles past opponents per game than the one released with the last patch, so despite improving dribbling tendencies we feel wide play is now much more realistic with fewer aimless runs into dead ends. If you find that you are being taken to external website when playing the 3D match engine, you are probably clicking the linked ad-hoardings by mistake. It is possible to disable this in the preferences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabregas_04 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Can't believe it STILL hasn't been fixed that players do not need to make 10 appearances in the EPL to get a winner's medal. From the start of last season you've only needed to be named in the squad for one. It's a minor thing admittedly, but it frustrates me that if I've played a 17 year old 8 times they don't get acknowledged. It's also annoying that they have to have made those 10 appearances before you actually clinch the title and not simply before the end of the season as it should be. Also, is anyone else experiencing an insane number of offsides? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Fallows Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Offsides are a bit higher than real life numbers, it's something we're aware of. Though it shouldn't be 'insanely' high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabregas_04 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Offsides are a bit higher than real life numbers, it's something we're aware of. Though it shouldn't be 'insanely' high. Fair enough. I'd just come out of that game with 13 offsides (Inzaghi on a bad day!), including a disallowed goal from an onside player so was a bit frustrated. As long as it's not just me lol.

Candre168 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Not really the place to ask this, but I need some insight. A friend once told me that loading FM and the FM editor at the same time could damage the game. Is this true? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Fallows Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Sometimes a player with poor movement playing in a role on the shoulder (e.g. poacher) may be offside slightly more often, something to watch out for if you've got one bloke straying offside a fair amount.

Guest El Payaso Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Tony or someone else from SI. I've asked kinda many times about the dribbling and never got an answer, so here it is again: I read the update list and really don't get it why did you apparently increased the effectivity of dribbling? There were obvious evidence available that players already did have way too many succesful dribbles per game compared to real life and now you have increased the effect... Why is that? IMO dribbling really shouldn't be the most effective attacking tool in the game. You've seen it with Chelsea IRL how 'easy' it is to tactically stop dribbling if team relies too much on one player's (Hazard) ability to run with ball. Just by making the player not to receive the ball in good amount of speed makes it difficult or even impossible to dribble through 2 players and also to leave that one skinned player to bite the dust.

phugalu Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I'm gonna start a new game without the winter transfers. I can't seem to sign any high profile players at all due to them not wanting to negotiate with me, which I could previously buy before the patch without a problem... I'm sure it's their managers that needs to be tweaked. They are all dreaming to play for Man City but cba to discuss contracts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Julius Flusfeder Posted March 2, 2014 SI Staff Share Posted March 2, 2014 Hi pugalu, would you mind starting a thread in the Transfers/Contracts and Responsibilities forum outlining your problem? (That's if you haven't already) Is it the players/agents or the clubs who won't negotiate? If you could supply examples of the players you're struggling to sign and, if possible, upload your save game so we can have a look at it. Details on how to upload your save game can be found here.

cerud Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Just reposting because I think it got lost in the mix. Am I right to assume that this didn't make the cut for fixes? I've still noticed an issue with not all available jobs actually making their way to the job centre. I have to find the specific club and apply for the available job from their club page. This was an issue that had been raised by myself and others in the bugs forum and I was told it was a "known issue." http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/384170-Not-all-available-jobs-showing-up-in-the-job-centre Definitely an issue for those who enjoy journeyman saves and don't want to hunt through 100s of individuals club pages to see if they're available or not.

GabrieleGallagher Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 10 games from the patch, ME seems to be truly improved.

Eleanor_Rigby Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I've only ever played in Serie A and the bookings have always been quite high. I don't think it's anything to do with the patch. Also, I know some refs have different personalities, but do refs differ in-game from country to country? If they do, then surely holding up an English league next to Serie A isn't going to prove much other than you get more bookings in Serie A? Here's a link to Serie A and it looks as if FM is a lot more lenient than the real thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Clayton-Robb Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 already asked but no reply so i might try again.there has been a lot of complaining about editor and i see only few things in the changes updates. however, i understand all aren't mentioned. so, i'd like to know if the bug when converting a competition from normal to advanced editor making the rules set in normal editor disappear in advanced has been tackled? and an odd bug where you couldn't select to manage the national team at the beginning of the game. both issues were posted in the pre game editor bugs forum. The first issue should be yes, but of course, if you have an example where it hasn't please visit the Editor bugs forum and share your file. The latter did not get a specific fix at this stage, but is still on the radar for a fix for a future version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc1 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Has the player ratings been adjusted radically in this patch, I had 3 very decent tactics which worked very well, now after this new update I want to start my long save but no matter what tactic I load, defenders/midfielders are all rank rotten, I've went from ave 7.3 to 6.5 in the space of 2 days. Only thing to change is the update, my tactics took me 2 months to get right and TBH I was enjoying the game very much prior to this update as you've probably seen my posts moaning about the moaners on here. So far for me the game has reverted back to the horrendous FM13. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
