renaldasuk Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Just bought FM23 and after checking global achievements, I am surprised how easy this game can be According to Steam achievements nearly 1 in 3 players had a 30 matches unbeaten run it is mad, especially knowing how difficult it is in real life. For example, in 21st century only 5 clubs from Europe's Top 5 leagues managed to do it. Arsenal (2 times), Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City and Juventus. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
redders1977 Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 It's very rare I go more than 15 games, usually playing at Sheffield Wednesday. My own tactics are useless and even using ones created by others (knap etc) I still struggle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewG Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Across my 5 seasons so far my best is 33, followed by 26, 20, 16 and 15. I am Rangers mind you so other than away to Celtic or English teams in Europe, defeats are rare. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ngoc Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 (edited) The game can be easy if you want it to be and can be hard if you decide to make it hard. You can challenge yourself or you can do everything possible to win easily it's honestly up to you is a single game you can even reload before a match till you win. Not sure I ever understand that question in a single game where you control everything. Is D&D too easy depends on the dungeon master the game is a tool and you can use it as you want there is not only one-way min/max to play it.

Nacaw Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Compared to real life, yes it is easy. Compared to other games, probably harder than most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poison Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 I think I had about close to 40, however a lot of people (me included) play in easy leagues with OP players usually, so I'd guess that's why it's not that rare as it sounds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXistenZ Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 if you're like 5-6 years into the future in a minor league, its a lot easier to achieve as the AI doesnt develop its youngsters properly and isnt the best at recruiting anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergeiG Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 It's definitely too easy. Doesnt matter if you play with PSG or some team from the 6th tier of English football, if you understand the basic game mechanics you will get results, win the CL, get back to back promotions, etc. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Tomlinson Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 We have had this debate about easiness on a few other topics. FWIW I have played every version of FM (and CM) before so have racked up 1000’s of seasons, so through the process of trial and (a lot of) error I am (now) half decent. Managers in real-life are lucky to get a few bad results before their managerial careers are ended! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantombandit Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I mean, compared to real life, yes it is easy. The point of the game is that you can take a team from the 10th tier of english football and win the champions league. It isnt designed to be realistic. But yes, there does come a point where you just snowball super hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty-corkcityfc Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Been playing it 30 years now and this is by far the hardest one yet. Last year I was getting small clubs to Champions League knock outs. This year I can't even win a domestic cup 🤣🤣🤣 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngsters most of the time just don't develop regardless of PA so it's impossible to build a wonderkid squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pafnus Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Football manager is not easy. But everbody can use trick some cheaty thing to make game easy. You can search wonderkids and buy them early on. Or u can stalk players ca an pa values. You can reload game until win the match. You can make money cheat etc etc. You will be succesfull easly with those metots.

FourFiveOne Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 In my opinion; it is too easy. Like you said such long unbeaten runs are just not realistic. Fatigue and what not should have a bigger impact on players which disallows them to perform at their best level week in week out consistantly, as in real life Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your datapoint above clearly shows that FM is quite easy for most gamers. SI should do something about it, for example, give preference options, so the player can decide to make the AI easier or harder to beat. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Match engine is same for ai and players.. so you are beating ai with better squads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
