Corkey Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 A big thank for for Mr Hough for restoring my faith in this game. I've tried the Classic, Beta, and the GSC versions at Premiership, Championship, League 1 and League 2 with great success. My biggest achievment taking my home town club Grimsby Town to the Championship from League 2 in consecutive seasons with very limited resources. The best tactic by far. Keep up the good work! I'd have to agree, with tactic I have managed to do my longest Save on FM10. Patch 10.2 was dreadful, and although Patch 10.3 isn't perfect, I feel that the football this tactic produces is great and successful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Hough Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 I'm testing the winger formation that i have made with aston villa just hit january and john carew has just come 3rd in the european Striker of the year awards.

Jupmachine Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Played gcs tactic for my first season with Man Utd, and won the league. Great tactic for winning, but for me only one of my strikers ever performs well. Wayned Rooney scored a ridiculous 49 league goals in 38 games. However, Michael Owen scored 1 in 17, Andre-Pierre Gignac scored 1 in 35, Berbatov scored 0 in 19, and Macheda scored 2 in 14 so 4 players managed 4 goals in 85 combined games. If anyone has any tips on getting my strikers to score with these tactics i would be most grateful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
polistus Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Big thanks to Mr Hough and fellows for developing these tactics. I tried two of them (GCS and Classic) and the latter one seems to be more solid for me. I played six consecutive games with both of them and these are my results with Arsenal: Classic: 5 won, 0 drawn, 1 lost, 19 for, 5 against, goal difference +14 GCS: 4 won, 1 drawn, 1 lost, 13 for, 6 against, goal difference +7 I haven't tried Beta Wizard v2 tactic. In my opinion, both are good and recommended but the Classic version is perhaps more polished. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barka_legend Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Hi lads, hope you can help.. Using the 10.3 Classic Tactic and conceding a ridiculous amount of goals.. No problem scoring, but conceding is a joke. Im Villa, Last few results. Villa 2-0 Liverpool Villa 1-0 Man Utd Blackburn 5-4 Villa Man City 4-2 Villa Villa 6-2 Burnley Was going lovely, but conceding 11 in 3 is a bit much for a team that kept clean sheets against Utd and L'Pool..

I'm playing as Villa testing a new tactic and i've noticed that the defence is very suspect, Warnock especially concentration lapses and bad positioning are his specialty. When i have finished making my winger tactic i'll have a look at the classics defence and see if i can release a version 2 for the classic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's an advice , when you have leadership in 60/70 minutes of the game change Time wasting to maximum and Defensive line a bit deep if u think you're going to get lose... 1 goal leadership in 60/70 and u havent domination set Defensive line to 0, if you have 2 goals leadership then leave Defensive line settings as they are, your choice....

sherica- Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Mr Hough, im having another storming season using an older version of your tactic. im not trying to criticize or anything close to that but isn't it the best tactic compare to all the current version. its the version call "10.3 best far better defence" for Everton if you still remember. already secured 5 consecutive league title...

I'm in season 2 and he already got 16 goals in 13 yup. but usually i play a target-man kind of ST for the central striker role. i tend to stick Bent on the left. but it dont really matter much as all 3 ST role should get 30+ goals per season.

Mr Hough Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 I'm happy to say that testing on the Winger formation is coming along excellently, Unfortinatly i can't put a date on when i will be releasing it but it will be shortly over the next week if things keep going well. I've uploaded a match for you to have a look at how the team plays in the winger formation. I'm playing as Real Madrid and this is litrally a quick half season test with them to see how the tactic performs with a very strong team. http://www.filefront.com/16011735/R.%20Madrid%20v%20Espanyol%20Highlights..pkm You need to save the file in the 'Matches' Folder so it's Documents - Sports Interactive - Football Manager 2010 - Matches. To load up the Highlights Match when you start FM you get the New Game - Load Game well at the bottom of the screen you will see a tab that says matches click on that and load the Highlights Match up.

theaky Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 HI Guys, First of all cracking thread! Great ideas in here. I am wondering 2 things. 1 - has anyone tried moving the DMC to AMC ?? If so what setting did you use and was it successful, whilst having some success in FML i am finding it not as prolific as described above in standard FM. I was wondering if a shift of DMC to AMC whilst leaving me exposed at times might create those extra chances my forward currently are not getting. 2 - As my main play time in in FML and not FM the manager to manager tactical battle is much more intense. HAs anyone tried or been successful in creating an ANTI-HOUGH tactic? One that is able to exploit the weaknesses in this tactic? Would certainly be interesting to see that tactic and how it works as I have historically always played through my wingers. and this Hough tactic whilst very strong does make me feel a little limited in my tactical decisions in game. An alternate wide / winger anti-hough tactic would allow for more manager flexibility in those hard to win games. Anything anyone can share is greatly appreciated.

cragswfc Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 this is us-full Defend the Flanks (useful against wide formations if you are narrow) Play Wider, Push Up, Target Wingers and FBs in OI instructions, Exploit the Middle (holds a higher, wider line in the final third to make getting round the back more difficult and attacks down the middle on the counter) http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=171637 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fm_freak Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 why tactics wouldnt work, if doesnt working for somebody cos maybe that guy is bad MANAGER, cos im currently playing with Barca (10.3 classic) 17games 17victory only 8 conceded for now....Akinfeev didnt get a gol in 630min, I think you know math and know thats calculate to 7 games....my defence is superior(05goals per match)....this is the best tactic in FM2010, so if ure bad manager there is no tactic with which one u can won something.....

Aron Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Which one of the tactics works well against the big teams? Tried both CGS and classic version, lost against chelsea every time. Also, with cgs, i played 3-3 at Shity while with the classic i won with 3-0. 2 different saves, practically same transfers. Playing as Arsenal. Is it a good idea to play for example, classic (balanced attack/defense) at home and against smaller teams and Beta wiz (defensive) away at big teams?

gcs Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 its only 3 letters... its gcs. Also dont expect u load this tactic and win every match 1337-0. Tactics is not everything, take a look on morale, team talks, and so ... What a shame 3-3!!!111oneone, and oh i forgot u can load your game and play till u win. Coz thats the way isnt it ?
