CGE97 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 My ass man has just won manager of year award as I only play about 1/3 games- being the important ones against rivals/big teams. this happened to any of you? I found it quite funny Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DivineOne Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Not happened to me. But in this version the one doing the work is the one getting rewarded . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dking Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Oh no, not again! Yep it happened to me. It's a new thing in FM12 if you holiday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krald Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I dislike it personally, it's one thing putting me off the game in truth, it makes me feel like I should manage the majority of games - but, that slows down the game so much, and saps the enjoyment out of it for me, because i dont really get anywhere fast. Sure, I can still win things, progress, just a season just takes longer out of my own time. It's sure realistic, doesnt mean I have to enjoy it . I'd not be as annoyed if there was some sort of "fast forward to x time" mode on games. See, if its an easy game, I'd want to get through it fast, if I could say click on 70 minutes, or 45 minutes and it go to that time in super-speed mode, barely giving me any information, so I could have a look at that time, do any subs I think I might need given the scoreline, it'd save me from having to put up the speed myself then get annoyed when I start an important game and it's still on the fastest settings on commentary only. There should be a way to speed through matches while still "managing" them. Holiday was a way, now, sure it's still an option, and I know they're just awards, but I want them .

heathxxx Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Ass man came first? At least he didn't come bottom! [video=youtube;bcYppAs6ZdI] Thank you, thank you... you've been a terrible audience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMT Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I really don't get why people holiday through games? Not having a dig at anyone, but what's the point of playing the game if you don't play the games? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Flag Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 "Oh no, not again! Yep it happened to me. It's a new thing in FM12 if you holiday." And rightly so. If you holiday then you're not managing the assistant is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having a dig at anyone, but what's the point of playing the game if you don't play the games? Sometimes I like to take more of a director of football approach and sign the players and form the playing squad and youth setup, then let the ass man do all the match day exercises.

Jamgarro Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Happened to me as well. I never manage a game. Although, Ass Man stopped win the award even if I won most thing. HOLIDAY 4 LIFE. I play FM for the regens, watching them develop and trying to get break scroring/avg rating/MOM/assists records. Don't care much for the tactics, that's why use others. And corner cheat FTW.

Campbell1892 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I used to do it when i was experimenting with low clubs trying to get em to the top flight, it gave me a window into getting interested in the game, could never do it now though, probly only right the ass man gets the glory but i can see the other side to it considering its just a game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilus Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Always wondered how people kept saying they were on about season 2089 while I was still finishing off season 1. Was beginning to think there were a bunch of loons out there locking themselves away for days on end with their laptops and a large supply of red bull. For those that do use their ass man for matches, ever noticed whether the ass man's stats change?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdrawmer Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'm confused? It's actually very easy to storm through games (stick the speed up to fastest - and then drag it even further along (there's another speed nothc that's not visible for some reason), then turn replays and highlgihts off. IT absolutely storms through for me when i'm playing friendlies! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT absolutely storms through for me when i'm playing friendlies! Even if that might be reasonably fast, the problem is - when I get to a game i actually want to manage I have the issue of likely having to start a game with it, and then turn down the settings I might miss a few minutes, and if not, well, it's a hassle anyway.
