rrreee3 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) The chaos effect on midfield is good and all but i've witnessed even players with good ball control and ball retention attributes (first touch, technique, dribbling, decision, anticipation, blablabla) lose the ball to a player with average to just bad defensive attributes (tackling, positioning, marking, etc) in a 1v1 engagement. It's almost like all players don't have ball control anymore. Conclusion: Midfield chaos introduction is appreciated but the fact that in the current version (23.1) players with good to excellent ball control loses possession way too easily than their ball control abilities suggest is infuriating. Please fix and thank you Edit: It's not just midfielders. center backs, wingbacks, attacking wingers also experience this Edited November 12, 2022 by rrreee3 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJS93 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 after a few years away from the game it is very disappointing to see the same errors from previous years still not fixed in particular in the Scottish saves, from wrong fixture dates, wrong disciplinary rules, wrong substitution rules in one of the cups, wrong transfer rules and clubs making needless signings eg 2 goalkeepers in winter window to make 5 in the first team squad! most clubs still signing random 35+ year olds on big wages to never kick a ball. and thats before getting into any data issues. poor stuff to say the least. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChippyLowe Posted November 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2022 For my money, this is the worst version of FM I've ever bought and I wish I were in a position to request a full refund. The bugs in the match engine (defenders unable to get back to deal with a ball over the top being the most egregious) are absolutely shocking, IF/IW STILL not cutting inside despite this being an issue since release of FM22. A headline feature being a 20 minute long CL draw Release day being 2 weeks before a World Cup and there is ZERO attempt to improve international management. I don't see myself even trying to play this game until the December patch now, and that needs to be a big improvement, feel I've wasted my money at this point. 27 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rdbayly Posted November 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Played 2 full seasons now and am in a position to provide some additional feedback following my first impressions post. At first, I welcomed the the loose first touches and turnovers in possession. After playing 100 or so matches, it is clear that the burden and price for incorporating this 'chaos of football' sits disproportionately on the shoulders of defenders. I have lost count of how many times I've seen a defender, with the ball at their feet, stand motionless and get robbed of possession - often leading to goal. If anything, I'd have to say I have done this to the AI more than the other way round. I also think that when this plays out, it is under the euphemistic guise of 'pressing' (?!). Let's get on to the main issue, which is the behaviour of centre backs when the ball is played over the top. Now I don't know what is going on here in terms of whether it is ME code, or the graphics engine is having a hard time representing what's going on; but there is definitely a sense of intermittent paralysis going on with defenders when the ball is in the air. In almost all cases, their starting position isn't bad and they have a good 10 yards head start in a foot race. But what I notice is they routinely lose the flight of the ball and decelerate their sprint to a walk / jog. At the same time, the attacker gains a burst of speed (often well beyond what their attributes suggest is possible). The upshot is I am both gaining and losing points because of this, and it undermines how the relative tactical systems should match up against each other. I'm not playing on a high mentality or with a pushed up back line. Quite how York just scored a Sunday league level goal (by lobbing one over the top against my 'low' block) has me left feeling a little hollow about the whole experience. It really needs addressing.

Popular Post TheArsenal63 Posted November 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2022 The best feedback I could give to the ME team for future iterations of FM is this, the game at present does not do a good job of differentiating between top level creators (usually in midfield but not limited to) to someone in league 2 for example. More individuality is needed, the ME seems to play the same everywhere, one template, the players don't have enough influence from a midfielder point of view. I can see and feel when I buy a better strikers for the most part, when I buy a faster player or dribbler with flair , better defenders (this one makes a huge impact, especially players who can defend the cross) and to some extent even fullbacks (although this is still debatable). But the level of play between creative players with high technical abilities in midfield, vision , passing and decision making, is not enough compared to really poor players in say, league 2. There's a lack of individual influence on the overall match from players with those traits. I see players from league 2 pass the ball, create, trap the ball and make great decisions even though their stats are awful. I understand that it is probably relative to their league, but it's still not great in my opinion. I see Ozil level passes and intelligence from players who should not (or at least not on a consistent basis) be able to do it, it makes you having to buy better midfield talent, a little bit meaningless unless you are better more defensively. I see teams in real life have a transformation when they buy 1 midfielder who can play out of the press, whereas in the current ME, i can stick a guy who I know is not as good and he won't have any issues. It makes buying big talents a little meaningless, I should feel and see the effect of creative players or players who can control matches. More individuality is needed for the ME to go on to the next phase of it's transformation, to get the player excited when making a transfer and seeing it on the pitch when it affects your build up and creativity. 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overmars Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) My initial feedback is mostly about the UI since I haven't played long enough yet to comment on the accuracy of the simulation and AI behaviour: 2D Matchplay UI wastes space - Same as in FM22, the huge black vertical bars on the sides of the 2D screen are an obvious design flaw. The player health visual across the bottom of the screen should be on the left or right side of the screen and the other side of the screen should have a customizable match stats visual. The way it is now makes the 2D experience virtually unplayable without a third party skin. Matchplay screen between highlights does not offer enough info - I want all of the player stats we used to have pre-FM22 so I know what is happening without having to watch a virtual game for 90 minutes. 3D Matchplay visuals - The player animations might be better, but the game is still shooting itself in the foot with the horrible crowd and stadium backgrounds. The game looks 20 years old in this department. Hearts for fitness - The distinctions between shades of yellow/green are not as obvious as they should be. Just show us a number (doesn't have to be as precise as 1-100) instead of a colour-coded indicator. Team training - It still requires too much micromanagement, especially when fixtures start moving around. My suggestion is to schedule types of training on a "Percentage of training time" basis rather than as discrete blocks within a daily schedule. Let me pick "15% transition defense," "5% attacking corners," etc. Sorting out a daily schedule is too much of a chore. Show me during the matches - This is something DrBenjy has suggested, and I think it's a great idea. If my striker misses a wide open net, cut to a visual of me shaking my head or something similar. If my team scores a late goal, show me celebrating. Show me irate after a controversial referee decision.

Domoboy23 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Finding that club vision of preferring to sign players for the first team under the age of 23 is too heavily impressed upon. Doubt many boards if any would block you from signing players who are 24 etc because of it, yet that's what's happening. Guessing this also doesn't take into account if you were to be bringing through a lot of internal youth and wanted to bring some experienced heads in to help them. Frustrating.

tajj7 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Every direct free kick highlight against me is a goal. I've only played 12 games so far this season and I have already conceded 5 direct free kicks, the highest free kick ability of anyone was 16, the average is more like 13, with one player only having 10. There were about 6 or 7 last year against me as well. Yet I have JWP with 20 freekicks and he's scored 1 in a about 50 games. There have only been 9 DFKs in the whole PL so far this season, THREE have been against me. If the AI has a DFK highlight against me, it's goal, they are more efficient than penalties.

If we were to negotiate, what would the demands be? (Slight interest, but also be aware we can look elsewhere) 4. Deal is up soon, would he consider a new deal? (not sure if we want to renew, what do you think). For me, the last two are the closest ones, but it's meant to signify how important the new deal is to you. For the first two you are signaling clear intent which will make him feel more valuable to the club, but also demand more. For the latter two, you are telling him you would consider a new deal, but you don't consider him very important, something that can make him feel alienated, but also lower demands. Your call based on what you are actually after. The headlines over the text outlines the same as I did here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be better if the agent's conversation could present different demands for differences between the four. All four current choices are the same. The difference in how much a football club wants to negotiate a player in real football certainly affects the weekly negotiations. The current agent conversation system has no meaning. There needs to be a definite improvement. Edited November 13, 2022 by zzkeg27 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that no matter which option you choose, the outcome is the same, it is extremely sad and reflects the status of the whole interaction system... 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember only one and it was fixed . I think by jow SI development team know about over the top balls , international management. They are not that stupid and banging on about the same old things that have been posted 1000s of times is not helping .

mrdano Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Not sure if it's been brought up here, but my biggest concern, and what is stopping me from getting to invested, is the lack of goals across the leagues. Half way through a season, and was curious to see how other leagues were going. Pretty much all leagues had teams with similar goal numbers to how many games they've played. I think the only 2 teams I saw with high goal numbers were Celtic and Bayern. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choi seung won Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 It’s something I’ve been curious about while doing FM for a long time. Each player has their own characteristics. I like to dribble on the defensive side, penetrate into center from both sides, have great skills and like to pass under my feet. Do these traits really work in the match engine? It doesn't seem to be working properly. If you look at the overall highlight, each player has no personality. All you have to do is score, defend, and play according to a set pattern. Waiting for a reply from the developer. I'm really curious. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think statements like this happened because it was one guy complaining about ME bugs, roadmaps, lack of communication etc. ? Just to bolden this point as think it highlights how complex the match engine is. It's not just a case of 'fixing' the match engine for anything ever. You can't just think 'right what I want to do is make x area completely perfect in reflecting real life, then I'll move onto something else'. Nothing in the match engine is in isolation. Every change has the potential to influence what happens elsewhere which is why we're so frequently talking about balance. You want more realistic X that's fine, but bear in mind in doing so it will change how Y works. And A, B, C, D...etc. Now this isn't about making excuses, it's just to try and explaining why with every version and the countless improvements we look to make, there may be issues flagged say in an area that was more commonly raised say for FM19 etc. It's a constantly evolving project. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have items like that in game for purely cosmetic purposes. We have traits because that's what they are in the ME. If you have any examples where you think they aren't working or being as effective as they should be (and bear in mind tactical instructions are the overall framework of how your players will play), feel free to raise via our Bug Tracker ideally with pkm's showing it on a consistent basis. Jut because a player has a certain trait doesn't mean they will look to do that every single time they have the ball. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of which option you choose or do not talk to the agent, the amount of money you accept per week is the same. I think there's no difference between all four, but why are there four options? It would be better if you could make a difference in weekly negotiations between not having a conversation with an agent and having a conversation and four options. There is no point in talking to the current player's agent. Yes they are practically the same. The dialogues and interviews in game needs major review and revamp to freshen things up. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
