bennytee Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 What are the greatest FM myths you've seen before on these forums?

Solo171013 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If the op is by a user called Rebe33ca asking advice on getting her boyfriend off FM then hilarity will prevail.

herne79 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Crikey where to start... I've been FM'd bro. The AI cheats. The AI knows/learns your tactic. Having a high CA player must mean he's really good. Researchers are biased. I've tried everything to fix my tactical problem so the ME's bugged. Mods work for SI/have signed a contract so always shut down negative comments. The game's too easy. The game's too hard. There's a secret cow level.

tyro Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If you have 30 shots vs 1 shot of the opposition you must win, otherwise the game is broken. If the opposition scores from that one shot - then the game is even more broken. (and no, it cannot be the tactics - it must be the game). Might be more than 1 myth up there.

CFuller Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If a player never - or hardly ever - scores, then he's bound to score against your team. Usually in the 89th minute. Usually after your team has come back from 3-0 down away from home to level at 3-3. No, I'm not angry that Sime Vrsaljko stole a point off me!

Changing positions in and of itself doesn't directly impact CA. What happens is different positions have different weightings for attributes and it's that which can have the knock on effect to CA changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be a bit disappointed if this is just a "myth", I can "learn" certain managers tactics and weak points, so seems only fair the AI recognises mine. Latest Roma save had me narrowly beat Lazio with my wing backs in a back four causing havoc, next game they went with a flat three up front and pumped balls into those spaces, convinced they'd learned.

This is a myth, but truth is if I'm on a winning streak and next game is an important one I definitly play it, because there's some days where everything seems to go our way and others where everything seems to go wrong. Obviously it must be wrong perception. But I have one, more supersticion than myth, I never shut down after a defeat, maybe because I think if I do so, next time I play I will losse all games!

But this is not something against who does/did that, cause we all have human bias. It's more like trying to be aware of that fact: we all have human bias.
