frank_olaf Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 It's nice to have this fix: - Combined List and Pitch view on in-match tactics in resolutions of 1600 and wider but I still don't understand why we can't have the normal tactics view here, the one with the vertical pitch? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Sooo... After the update my team are half invisible on the pitch. It's just their arms, heads and legs running around.

frank_olaf Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Small bug I've found, the widget I have (not pinned to any of the sides, just floating near the top left of the screen), keeps moving down the screen every time I go to the tactics screen and back to the pitch screen. This specific widget I keep closed by default and only open it when needed. The other widget I have the is open by default doesn't have this issue/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubbs Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Oh my god !! Offsides in comprehensive highlights STILL not fixed. Just played my first match with 18.2. There were 9 offsides in the game and every single one was shown as a highlight! In what footballing world are non-contentious offsides considered a highlight, so annoying. One other small thing that will need a further look is a very slight delay in ME as player is just about to score. Anyone else notice this ? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

roykela Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Love the UI optimisation. So much more responsive. Still not a fan of the scouting cards but i do like the addition to add/remove from shortlist and add as transfer target. For the database changes; do you really have to start a new save for them to work or does it work removing those leagues for a season and then adding them in again at a later point? Or is it actually save game-bound? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LolloViola Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) The first thing I noticed with the new patch is that the pop up in the upper bar that was appearing when a correct goal was scored, is not present anymore.. is that a bug or a choice? It was useful to distinguish regular goals by those that were going to be canceled due to offside or foul. EDIT: cache erased, skin reloaded and problem solved! The second one is that finally now the inside forward on the wing contribute A LOT MORE in the game, they finally score and get good marks! I was almost erasing my beloved 4-3-3!

The highlights aren't the problem, the number of offsides is. The real life average is 4 per game, in FM it's about 8-10. There are usually several players with close to or more than 100 offsides a season in FM, IRL Harry Kane has the most in the PL with 21 after 17 games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bartdude Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 The sound is totally screwed also.

ElectricBoogaloo Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 My team's defence seems to have gone tits up as well. The yellow line signifies my results before and after the patch. So I went from conceding 5 before the patch to conceding 10 after it in only 4 games, including my first league loss to the team in 18th who scored 3 in 5 minutes at the end of the game.

Mallidon Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Is there any way that these options can in some way be changed? I know they are designed to be 'in the middle' but depending on how many options you get, if you are clicking along, often its easy to find yourself clicking on 'Make Offer' rather than 'Get Analyst Report' or click 'Get Analyst Report' instead of 'Get Scout report' etc. Seen two or three people streaming on twitch doing exactly the same thing as myself, not even realising then getting a scout report come back and going 'oh no that was half my scouting budget' (low level teams etc). Can we not have an option to standardise where these buttons pop up please? Even better, an optional one, that you can toggle on and off? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what i had: Should i be concerned with the number of shots and shots on target..? You very much should be, because most of them must have been poor to average. Which may cost you points further down the line. Or else there would be more than a goal in here very likely. I thought this was done for, no matter how ridiculously "attacking" the tactic. It's the first time I've seen something approaching anything like this in FM18. No less as the generally shot counts were down for AI in general likewise (for better, and sometimes, arguably worse). A prime candidate of a match worth reporting, if you ask me. The AI playing 4-4-2 deep apparently seems a clue.

Right now, second match after update. I had 27 shots and 13 on target. Game ended 4-0, which to me, a more realistic data. Besides that, the positioning of the physio (?) seems to be at the right place.
