bigmattb28 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 1 hour ago, StormenDK said: Are you supposed to lose all knowledge of a player after 4 weeks of trial? I have a ton of trialists in the pre-season, and I can see all their attributes after 2-3 weeks, but as soon as they leave the club, they go back to the knowledge level I had prior to the trial. So some of them now show no info at all. Seems a bit silly I hope this is a bug. In lower league management I have signed players I previously had on trial and not signed at the time, but have gone back and signed them later down the line. I'd have thought all the stats would be visible unless some have drastically changed in the time of the trial ending and my signing him. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domoboy23 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 7 hours ago, Domoboy23 said: My only irks so far would be strikers receiving the ball 30/35 yards out, turning and shooting from distance when there's the space and opportunity for them to run and knock it past/dribble past the defenders. Next ones that come up I will start to compile pkms. Also it's so refreshing to see players from half angles actually stopping play and turning back and waiting for a runner inside rather than shooting into the side netting. However after seeing it about 30 times in a row there seems to be no balance. In recent years they would always strike, now they always stop play and don't shoot from the half/quarter angles when you'd maybe still expect them to have a dig 30% of the time and convert the odd one into the bottom corner. Inside forwards also seeming very wide and not inside at all or making penetrating runs for a ball through the centre. https://gyazo.com/1536d54f28696991c5342d00d0714d34 - I'd probably expect from that position a striker to not shoot and head and hold up maybe 25% of the time.

Its defensively a shambles (unless you have Varane!) but get quick WBs (you can play wingers in that position, defensive capability doesn't matter) and three strikers with decent heading and jumping reach and the AI can't do anything. Float crosses, and press hard. Easy street in this ME. Poulsen and Isak scoring for fun. Poulsen is just ridiculous. I'm Sociedad right now, lost 1 match where my goalie got a 6.2, and blitzed everyone else with 25-40 shots a game. Every ME has similar exploits sadly.

IRL you'd get picked apart by Fulham and the scoreline might end up the other way around. If this "makeshift back three" still positions the way it did -- all SI needed to code was an actual AI database which formation works actually "best" against which other one (whilst we're talking about possible AI improvements...). Because on previous releases, all the AI needed to do was fielding a three forward formation, as the wide forwards would just sit in all those giant half spaces opening up between a pairing of LB/ WB ---- CB ---- RB/WB. On that prior release, somebody reported like 7-1 cup win in the first leg, and a 8-0 AI comeback in the second (not made up, btw). This was connected to a very similar formation -- however, the AI manager in the 2nd leg chosing its "prefered attacking formation" in the db in a desperate attempt to get back in the tie (lol). By research, this happened to be a 3 central forward formation... Already in the first attack from kick off, it was like high danger. (However, SI may not be interested in punishing their players too much). Which could still randomly frustrate them as there for sure are AIs prefereing 3 central forwards.

I can see loads of play going through the center. It ends up out wide a lot just as it does in real life, as that's often where the most space is. But it still often lands back around the center where I'm seeing plenty of attempts at through balls. Not saying there isn't any issue, just that if there is it's certainly not glaringly obvious to me. Admittedly I'm a casual player and don't delve too deep in to things, but I have been watching football for over 30 years and in every single version prior to this I've noticed obvious issues. But this year the ME plays out the most realistic simulation of football I've seen in any football game so far. It really is quite satisfying to sit back and watch the matches unfold. I think a lot of people dont realise that these days because a lot of teams play a high block/high press type of game - you will absolutely see a lot more play around the flanks. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DB Wit Posted October 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2021 Anyone else feels like they are playing FM20 again? The centre of the pitch is completely dead, I've played through half a season and i might have seen 4-6 highlights (on extended) where there's some type of passing play through the middle. IW seem to act more like wingers than players who are supposed to cut inside, instead they just corner themselves and cross. The game got real boring real quick cause of this... This goes beyond crossing being OP, it's pretty much all the players do, "pass it wide, run to byline, cross, repeat". I've tried different tactics, all with the same result, the only times a goal isn't scored from crosses it's either from a weird long pass or in the sequence of a play that started on a long throw or set piece, nothing from building in open play. I don't know if SI will fix but if this is the match engine I might just return to fm21. Also, I respect SI and honestly think there were good improvements to fm22. The 3D models and animations are great, the new player values system is a thousand times more useful (and I think it should've been an headline feature), deadline day was pretty fun and as someone who had some deals to make during it I can say I was happy with the addition and getting rid of the white background for the new default skin was something that made my eyes pop with joy. So far, a part from bugs, the only thing in the skin that's driving me up the wall is not being able to see atributes on the scouting reports (whose idea was that?). But yeah, I'll stop for now and keep my eyes open to see if the ME has been fixed or if this is what it's supposed to be for this year. I hope everyone's been enjoying the game regardless. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one thing for the ball to end up in wide areas, but not to this extent. What I've noticed is that a lot of times when a wide player receives the ball they just run along the byline if they are an IW. IF and AP are a bit different but they also have other functions, an IF is almost an AF that starts wide, if you want someone just cutting inside and operating in half spaces now, the only choice are the AP and Treq roles which obviously don't fit most wide players. What you had previously AND in real life wasn't so much a reviving of the central zone but an increase in importance of the Half spaces. That valorization is gone so of 5 corridors to explore the only viable now are the wings. An issue that i saw a lot of times is when the IW players have the ball not only don't they cut inside but if they hold it they don't get support, instead, CM run into the area (no, they don't have get into opposition box trait) and WB hang way to further back because they don't see space to do overlap for some reason The centre of the pitch fills way more congested than it should be and player (in my experience) are far too eager to make long passes even if they make zero sense and go against instructions (once again, no trait that would incentivise this). I said in my reply to the thread that it felt like FM20 and that's because it does (a friend of mine who had skipped 21 said the same thing), there are changes obviously, but the issues are there, the ME improvements last year were by far the best thing to happen to the game in years and it was fun (a bit too many lob shots), you could play different styles of play but right now (And i doubt SI will leave it as is) it feels like 9 out of 10 highlights is just good old english run to the corner and cross.

owenFM99 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) It may just be me, but at the start of a save game it feels like an awful lot of youngsters (players with unset determination in general) are generating with low determination. In previous iterations there would be a few players that would start with low determination, but this year feels like at least half of my youth squad have < 10 determination. I just feel like the distribution of determinations of players in youth squads (with unset determination) is very low when I would say most players on the game have a determination of above 10. I know determination can be increased but it's just a bit frustrating when half of your youth team has lower determination than pretty much all my first team. For example, this is the arsenal u18's at the start of a game. Edited October 25, 2021 by owenFM99 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
