Correct. As a sidenote, I thought the content creators had been told to showcase the Bundesliga as part of the agreement to show off the game, which most of them have done. However, the chap above has done an LA Galaxy one, and Proudie's doing a Portsmouth one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointing out exploits & bugs is very important but all this guy has done is publihed click-bait, there's no attempt to analysis anything or even play the matches, for all we know the assistants at each club immediately reverted to a formation that used a striker early on in each match. As for league finishes a title contender won the league & a team predicted to finish lower mid-table pushed just over the upper mid-table range, hardly earth shattering over-performance.

Guest Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 We still don’t have confirmation that the AI they left in charge stuck to the formation and if a user wants to employ the formation for some perceived advantage then that’s up to them.

Mensell76 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I played a strikerless formation with Liverpool in FM18 which I created because I could not get inside forwards to cut inside and shoot for the far corner. It worked and felt like a cheat tactic because Salah scored 29 goals in the league and Liverpool reached the CL finale in season 1. I was proud but then real life took over and Liverpool did also reach the CL finale and Salah scored 34 goals Okay granted in season 3 my strikerless formation won the league with 107 points.....it did feel like a cheat then. However strikerless formations in real life are also hard to battle, Ajax showed that against Bayern a few weeks ago and Liverpool really does not play with a central striker since Firminho is everywhere on the pitch. It is just difficult to defend especially against quality teams. Let's all not waste our time on that Borussia Dortmund effort. SI surely will look into it I guess.

Mensell76 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I do hope AI clubs will prove more intelligent overall and that AI tactic can also make user of gegenpress, tiki taka etc. In previous FM's Guardiola and Klopp underperform quite a bit and are usually amongst the first sacked coaches. It seems their managerial skills do not translate to tactics well. I have been intensly reading and watching all sorts of content regarding AI tactics and managers but have not found a positive sound. Then after watching Bayer vs Bayern and Borussia DM vs Bayer I do have a sorry that better teams seem to have very defensive or passive tactics. This really is my main concern for the coming FM19 career game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyro Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I always wonder if I am blind or if I am getting too old and am happy to just have time to play a game and not have time to complain about it but when I look at the videos and see the changes in the visual representation of the match, then I can't see how others miss that? Beyond that, as Miles stated, there are thousands of small little changes in the match engine (that's not the graphics, btw.). So how people keep saying there are no changes is beyond me. Did you guys see the ball physics in the "ALPHA" version? (Alpha comes before Beta comes before actual game, right?). You understand that there are changes being done before they release the Beta. And there are changes done before November 2nd when the game is officially released, right? Or do you think Alpha is the actual game? I played this not to be named game years back and I keep saying it, I am so happy I discovered this game. That not to be named game had great graphics, yes, oh and I could buy a car and a house, but I told my player to do something and it made no difference. In this game, they actually do what you ask them to, but hey, they have their own personalities too, and they make mistakes. Penalty doesn't mean 100% goal. VAR feedback doesn't mean the referee got it right. Calling offside doesn't mean it was. This is all build into the game. People, sit back in your chairs, lean back, breathe for 10 seconds, and enjoy that you can play such a nice game to relax. Feedback is always good to make it better but tearing apart an Alpha version before you have even seen it, is insane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
