There's a workaround for the German (and Japanese) national teams from anohther forum that works on release day, Do you have a link for that?

And no it wasn't always released in the past with the new features list. And they tend to push things out bit by bit until release. This is a fairly new idea back in FM11 and Fm12 the match footage was available in August approx two months before release Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going through this process once you have added 50 more countries to the game is a nightmare, always have been. And this would be at least the 3rd or 4th time I have raised this issue (in the appropriate forum). Give us a Select All button for both countries and leagues.

I didn't think of it as a marketing campaing, but as a loyalty bonus. 5% discount per FM game in library was a great thing, because annual releases aren't usually well-received in gaming world. Don't get me wrong, I'm pre-ordering the game as per usual, 10€ difference won't make a difference. But loyalty bonus was a really nice gesture.

They're equivalent, just purely marketing at returning players. Sure it was a great scheme, and saved people a bit of money, but they're under no obligation to keep offering it. Presumably they didn't see the monetary benefit to it, they are still a business after all. It's rare they're going to offer something truly altruistic that they're not going to benefit from. If they're confident that the loyal players will purchase anyway, why give them the sweetener? If they're wrong, maybe it returns for FM20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player match up one is quite a good addition in itself. Just hope they aren't silly match ups and they are based on probable (strongest) starting 11's. I'd hate to be for example Man City taking on Barcelona in CL, and the pre match player battle focuses on, say, Adarabioyo v Suarez when the former never plays. Kinda in the same way as in FM18, occasionally the pre match report highlights player X as key player, when said player has played about 3 games all season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on a new laptop and can finally upload videos (still working out how.. it crashed my game several times in my Bournemouth save... so learned to Save after every match then go to review the replays). Also, unfortunately too late, I realise my upload packages were only actually saving one highlight. So any game Smith got a brace or hatty, until I noticed the error, wasn't captured Whilst he wasn't top scorer. Smith was the main man. Won most headers in the league And was involved in pretty much everything. So here are some classic TM goals, from the beast Matt Smith. ----------------- @ajsr1982 take back what you said about the target man.... That role is obscenely good when used properly You know better as a frequent member in the tactics forum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajsr1982 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Haha. It can work, obviously, like anything. My issue is that the target man is fairly ubiquitous in lower league football and lots of players have 'Target Man' as their primary/preferred function. Getting it to work without too much heavy wiring has been a constant bane for me over multiple versions of FM, personally. I'm being a little facetious, but telling my team to get the ball wide and lump it into the big fella shouldn't a) be that hard, or b) yield such bad results on 'default' settings. I'm aware that (b) could be an issue with me of course, but as someone who is 'okay' at this game, I can't see why I shouldn't be able to get this work on some level if I have fast wingers and a guy who has the green circle as a TM. As a frequent member of the tactics forum yourself, you'll be aware of the prevalence of using someone who is ostensibly a TM as a DLF/DF. Which is a shame. Could be a labelling/description issue of course, and for a TM to really work, you need a Jan Koller/John Carew type player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrazT Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I would have thought that the ones you could now access would be those relevant to your current club, as those from your previous club will not be accurate if you have moved up in standard.

Agreed, if I move from a League One Club to a Serie A Club I would have no use for the reports from the scouts from said League One Club. But what if I moved from say Man City to Barcelona and I used a scout at City to find under-20 talents - would love to have those reports... Has to be said though, regardless of which of the two it is, I think it's a brilliant add-on and improves on one of the main things I think the Scouting-system lacked. Instead of starting over at every new club (and wasting a big part of the 1st transfer window if you arrive in one) you can now dive straight in.

FrazT Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 The scout reports, like all company documents, will be the property of the club that commissioned them, so they should stay with that club, in my view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
