They reduced Jadedness in players, help stop the frequency of certain types of injuries and can help with players recovery. But did it matter what their attributes were last year? I got the impression you could just hire somebody cheap, with very low attributes and he would have the same effect as a guy with high attributes. The attributes required were never highlighted in the same way they were for coaches in the staff search so there never really seemed to be much point in paying a top wage for somebody from Barcelona, especially not when you could just get somebody from Barnet and he'd do just as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rusty217 Posted September 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2017 Atrocious way to announce features. Annoyed that it took so long, and even more annoyed that it was in a video so bad I simply don't want to watch it. That said, the features do sound good, especially the match engine overhaul. Of course if it wasn't for The Telegraph I wouldn't even know what the new features were... so thanks for nothing si. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they have taken a look at FIFA's FUT. The more players are familiar with eachother (same personality, language, playing style or just lost of training?) they can get a better connection (and as it seems you can take it literally) on the field. Just guessing, but that would be a great new feature. Instead of looking at tactics as a team you also have to take fit between individuals into account. Which would make sense.

Absolutely. And it would make totally sense. There are lots of examples where players don't fit with each other and sometimes it's even better to play one alongside a (sometimes even less talented) player because there is better chemistry between them. But this will be just guessing until we see the demo or new videos. Edited September 29, 2017 by michelb86 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, if it works as it appears to do it is really quite promising. I often rotate my centrebacks (for example) because it makes little difference at the moment but if I have to consider how they work together it means more consideration has to be given. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

YKW Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Hahahaha WOW! Putting the features aside for a minute, I thought the video was brilliant! I take my whimsy very seriously, and so personally I'm excited just about the choice of approach. Anita Lastname - Charming. Huge crush. Mike Duff - Even huger crush! (but only because I love Judge Rinder.) Jack Peachman - someone polish up the oscar for this man, best performance of the video. Curtis Morton - Great performance as well Miles Jacobson - I was impressed with his increased acting range! Especially the way his eyes light up when he says "you've got good info." The only thing missing was for the interviewer to say "The public will want to hear a proper answer from you" as Miles drove away. 9.5/10 Features wise, I think there was a decent amount of information, and some of the screenshots look very, very interesting. New graphics engine, improved stadiums and match day stuff looks really good. The Dynamics thing I am already in love with, and can't wait to see how it works out. Thanks SI. Really looking forward to playing this now. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxToBox Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I'm very happy with what we've seen, it'll slow down my saves, but require more active consideration and planning. Which is good, long term saves should need intense care. Fancy something quicker(which I often do), FMT is there for ya. Especially intereated in the medical stuff.

I like that SI are interacting a bit more with the major FM YouTubers/streamers. Depends on the way how the YouTubers play the game. If they are actually knowing what to do and actually doing sensible stuff (like for example @Rashidi) then I see this a good thing. But the fact (on what I've seen on YouTube) is that majority of them don't have any clue about tactics or anything and them being successful and getting interaction is not good thing for me as it gives more like an arcade feeling of the game. And this is only my opinion. Didn't really get much out of the video but I am not on the negative side either. Really don't have anything else to say about it but that I'm eagerly waiting for the release and of course supporting SI like I always do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And itll have a more prominent effect on the squad etc because it does take place in FM17 i believe? I was wondering, IRL we have seen VvD and Coutinho refusing to play or whatever in order to get moves... could that ever be put into the game/ Or does legal issues stop it?

Kcinnay Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I'm very curious about the tactical changes. A bit disappointed that the team shape concept isn't gone. Firm hope that there is more creative freedom nuance (much more expressive, much more disciplined) to mitigate the team shape settings. I'm also hoping that a defensive width setting has been implemented, and that one of the new player roles is a striker role that actually tracks back to midfield, so that you can get everyone behind the ball in defense. Apart from that: the first look is promising. Player dynamics and squad hierarchy are features that make the game even more realistic. Looking forward to the beta!
