Match injuries are high, but training looks low. So you can easily be being double hit, or suffering nothing at all (The below is complete guesswork on my part) My guess is that there is a bug, but it only presents itself when some tactical settings are present. This seems the most logical reason why 1) the injuries occur during matches, and 2) the mass injuries only affect some players. I'm wondering whether it's due to SI trying to replicate some of the downsides associated with very high intensity tactical systems, but not quite getting the balance right. This would sort of explain why it seems to be more the elite level teams that are affected, whilst the lower league managers seem to be less affected (at least from what I've seen on this forum).

This is nothing more than a good start to the season really isn't it Just done a Burnley/Watford/Leicester scenario and you may drop off in a couple of weeks. Would be very worried if that is indeed still the case come the final third of the season but a newly promoted club starting well in the league is hardly an impossible feat. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etebaer Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) Finished my first Season with my CaC Club (aka ex-Paderborn) in german 2.Bundesliga and in a dramatic nailbiting finisch made it to the second place and direct Promotion via better Goal difference over the third placed Team - HSV stranded 5th place. Injuries are down by ~35% compared to the Season before (and its real world stats) according to the briefings i receive - at average i have 1 Player pre game injured and 1 other that has a knock, the worst was one Player having a 3 month injury, never had more than 6 or 7 Players missing for injuries at the same time... Crosses are ~ 50% of assists for and against my Team. Corners, Free Kicks are better implemented and closer to their real world urgency - Goalkeepers actually save many Free Kicks but not all that were never hit the target in FM18 and much less Player-idiocy when its a Corner Situation. At all the amount of Goals shot and received is so far much more realistic - My best Striker roughly netted 15 Goals and not 30+ like in older FMs and my goal difference was round About 20+ against 13+ for my 3rd placed competitor, also the Team has a nice spread of assists and goals all over quite realisticly. Games the Team Plays under pressure are pretty obvious and hair tearing at times...also some Players obviously standing out/thrive under pressure... PLayers become expensive in wages pretty soon - really hard to stay on the lower/inexpensive wage side of things... Like it so far!

RandomGuy. Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 First season on the beta was one of the most pleasing seasons of my FM career, so far. Only a few games left but on course for a lower midtable finish with a midtable side. Something about me enjoys that more than if I'd taken them to title straight off. Had a run of two wins in three months, most goals conceded from crosses, then a wee tactical tweak of getting the defence to play wider has severely nullified that. Not conceding has allowed my strikers to win games, and we've dragged ourselves safe. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always possible to overachieve in the previous versions aswell, I remember there was a guy who posted that he finished 4th in La Liga with Leganes in the first season so yeah. It also depends on what tactics you use, if you exploit the bugs or ME weaknesses etc (not saying that you do). But yeah I agree the game is a bit softer compared to the previous versions and that's maybe down to the tactical presets? It has certainly become easier for new players though.

Hovis Dexter Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 IMO the tactical presets are great. In the past I've always struggled to come up with any sort of sensible tactic on my own. When I first started the game (FM14) I pretty much always downloaded a tactic and then tweaked it so it became more to my liking. Then, with the last two years editions I tended to use one of Cleon's guides as a starting point. The new presets seem to provide great starting points with a big advantage that they don't contain any contradictory instructions ... at least I don't think that they do. This should be a great help. How often, in the tactics forum, have we seen people asking for advice only to be told that their tactics are full of contradictory instructions? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitja Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 in general there are still crazy amounts of crossing attempts as soon as human or ai manager employs wingers in their tactics. 40, 50, 60 crosses per game is far too much, average pl team makes less than 20. i really think all wingers, fbs, wbs should have crossing set to mixed not often, which means you instruct player to cross the ball into box at any cost no metter how many players are there in the box, how good is their position to cross, are there better options, maybe sneaking into the box with inteligent one-two's etc. all they do is bombing countless crosses and it's not how modern wing play looks. it's a shame because it's a good me, possibly great. with more inteligent wingers' and fbs' crossing aimed a little more to recycling possession the game would achieve more realistic crossing, corners and possession stats 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to get there, but it's been in the game for a while. I managed to turn Eddie Howe into a seething mess when I was Scotland manager and he was my counterpart for England. They talked us down and we beat them in the 2018 qualifiers. He never quite got over that, and when we cuffed them out of two separate tournaments he went on a massive tear. Ended up getting sacked too. Pleasing. EDIT: I tell a lie, he took over for the 2018 qualifiers and started regressing when we beat him there. We put them out of Euro 2020 and he lost it.
