kentonizking Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I havent ever watched one, I'm not sure how they work within the game, especially when we rely on attributes for 'how good' a player is. I like the purist idea of no attributes and just performance stats and video clips, but I think that would require a massive change to how the game works Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Yeah I watch them, it shows various highlights of things the player did in a match. For example for a midfielder it could show their passes and tackles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty surprised by how many of my shortlisted players' reports don't include them. I mean if my youth players can teleport in and out of training camp, why can't my scouts teleport to a few more matches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kepz Posted August 22, 2022 Author Share Posted August 22, 2022 Well, I hadn't expected to be one of the few players aware of this. For anyone who hasn't found them, go to the scouted players section in the scouting tab and click around your scout's reports. If they've never watched the player before, you won't see anything, obviously, but if they have then they will have prepared a viewable highlight package from however many games watched. If you ask a scout to watch a player's matches in a league you haven't loaded they still will, however, you cannot watch any highlights. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phd_angel Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Wow, I've been playing FM since 1929, and have never heard of such feature, which does seem to exist. However, you need to set scouts to watch a "number of games", right? My scouts are set to investigate for "1 week". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kepz Posted August 28, 2022 Author Share Posted August 28, 2022 it’s by assignment, no? you should be able to send your scouts to watch up to 4 matches. sorry, I am not the best with scouting so maybe someone else can chime in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
