richards1982 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 The left sided mid of the three is a roamin playmaker. the centre is a ball winner on def and the right side of the three is centre mid on attack. the laft striker is complete fw on attack. the centre is advanced forward and the right sided is deep lying fw on support. the fullbacks arw both on attack and i have attacking mentality and fluid. lile i said some of the play is incredible to watch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameuss Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Won my 3rd in a row last night with Man Utd. Once you build a good squad in this game, it becomes easy. Yup. The game has always been relatively easy if you play with one of the big teams and get a good squad behind you. it's kind of the point of the game, and kind of obvious and correct that the cream will rise to the top unless you're rank rotten with setting that team up.

soldierblue123 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I find the game a challenge. Each season is different and a new challenge. If you find it too easy the i suspect you are a very good player indeed. Not everyone is and some people struggle. I'd like to know what thesecret to your success is ?

richards1982 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 To win more than you lose No seriously i just set on a tactic i want to use. always loved the narrow 433 as i love buyin strikers lol. then i just tweak roles etc to get a formation and roles within that formation that work. my midfield is veey mobile with alot of movement within that. most times people say u always need a sitter in midfield bt this yr it doesnt seem the case. The deep lying forward links the midfield really well with my att mid bombing forward and my roaming playmaker always keepin up with play too. it was really just a case of watchin matches and seeing what needed changing it really was as simple as that. and now ive got a formation with roles within that that is simply unstopable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I've done the same Man Utd save in every FM and it's never been so easy. Honestly. I would be happy to win one CL in previous versions but now it's getting to the point where I'm running out of things to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chanut Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 it's easy because you know what is good and what is bad in the game universe. for example if your striker's finishing is 18 then it's obviously 18 there is no overrating, no underrating in this game. The life of the real world manager is hard because he has to rate everything himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

richards1982 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 A harder challenge than to get ipswich to win champions league within 3 seasons and to virtually win everythin else within that time too?

This is ipswich we are tlkin about here, not man city or united. This was a hard enuf challenge as it was How about going to Northern Ireland and picking a team from the least reputable league and doing the same? Or Gibraltar? Or San Marino? There's far, far harder challenges than doing that with Ipswich, and exponentially more so than doing it with one of the big sides. The bottom line is, if you go Man United or similar, then there's going to be a pretty low ceiling as to how hard the game is going to be. You can set yourself a challenge within that club to raise difficulty a little - maybe a youth only challenge, or a domestic-only - but there's still a limit. It's like complaining about fishing being too easy because you're using dynamite. There is nothing wrong with going a big club, but if you're finding it easy, there are tools there to give you a bigger challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning the league with Cristal Palace in the first season, or winning european competitions in season 2 with Bradford and Ipswich is easy and realistic? This game is still marketed as more of a real football product than a game, right? I'd still understand if SI admitted to have made the game easier as a reaction to some complaints from the last two years. Wasn't expecting at all that Miles would have no opinion about this point other than "take a harder chllenge". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
richards1982 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 Im with you on this one paolo. u shouldnt have to start your save in some obscure country to try and get abit of realism from the game. ipswich is my team and the only team i manage but to be abke to win evrythin so quickly just makes the game soo boring. i was bored at the start of december and the gamr hadnt even been out a month which is so rare for me as normally im hooked till march time but there really is no point wen u go into games knowin i will beat the other supposedly big teams but 4 or 5 every game, especialy in the first few season with a team like ipswich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are Ipswich, its not normal that you win all that. Dont listen their semi - stupid advice that you must take some club from Kazakhstan. Of course you dont want to do that, why would you ? Game must have challenge even if you take Man. Utd for example.. not to mention Ipswich. I like to be manager just in England, so i expect challenge there, not some to me unknown countries.

richards1982 Posted January 2, 2015 Author Share Posted January 2, 2015 I couldnt even think of goin back to fm14 now. think i will just give it a rest for abit before i start another save with ipswich but as a challenge will see if i can make a formation with 3 centre backs work this time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarroOxford Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Personally, I'm finding FM15 incredibly difficult, and I figured out FM14 quick enough, so I'm not a complete slouch at this game. I've only really played LLM though so far, so my experiences are bound to be different from others. When I eventually move up the leagues, maybe my opinion will change.
