avenger22 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I would like to ask SI for this patch note, does this imply defending headers from set pieces or also about open play crosses in general or both ?

craiigman Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Decided to start an Arsenal save following the update. First thing I’ve noticed is the lack of involvement from the striker (Jesus as CF-A). Then I looked a little deeper, he only received the ball 17 times in the whole 90 minutes vs non-league opponents. Been watching the games pre-season and it seems that no one wants to pass it into the striker, through-balls or even just the striker dropping back and playing simple passes. Had 1 highlight where Jesus was unmarked running forwards into space where no defenders and still played it wide. I’ve not set passing to focus anywhere, but am playing on attacking and slightly wider. That shouldn’t affect the passing though, right? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't understand how they went from second last season to twentieth halfway through the current season, which despite just being an extra 0 is quite a difference, but this is still pretty damn harsh.

shanster1405 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Good morning fellas. I think SI did a good job with FM24. Pre patch - my gripe was with 1. Training - cannot include recovery period after matches for U21/U18 training schedules 2. The ever famous player interaction bug as well squad depth complain 3. Match day UI - I dont need that many useless "touchline tablet" thingy The flow of the game is overall better, loved how goals are made and scored. Pre patch, I started the game with Arsenal - now, I am looking for long save with a challenging team (Brighton, Bournemouth, Torino, etc). Overall, I am looking forward for a better post patch update on the game. Thank you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwityke1983 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) As someone who was vocally worried about any changes being made to the match engine, I have to say having been at first a little frustrated by my strikers all of a sudden being unable to hit a barn door if it fell on them, I am actually loving my save game currently. Couple of reasons for that: 1) my issues around player interactions seem to have been fixed to a level that I'm happy with. 2) I've had a good "head canon" with this save. IE my internal narrative around the save has been fairly good. I won promotion last game of the season having lost and entering the changing rooms thinking we'd missed out only to find my rival had conceded in the 95th minute meaning we went up. I signed a 37 year old former superstar (for this country) and he played brilliantly to take us to the clubs first ever FA cup win against his old team, who we'd lost 3-0 to 3 days prior not managing a single shot on goal. 3) the ME has a bit of frustration to it, the old ME didn't and was fun but that fun was fairly superficial and led to me getting bored of the saves especially when the problems with player interactions were thrown in. 4) added to this I've been able to get tactical styles I've never been able to work to function like I would want them to. Yes we lose or draw games we sometimes should win but overall my route one, mid-block counter attacking tactic works like I'd expect it to. I've even got a 4-4-2 diamond to work which is pretty much a first for me. 5) the AI actually seem to be pretty good at squad building in the more obscure leagues this year. Usually after 3 seasons I'd be winning the title with ease as the formerly dominant sides have lost their best players and spent lots of money on rubbish. This season I'm a good 25 points off winning a title as the dominant side have gotten even more dominant, replacing their best players with better ones and developing their youth players. This is going to make winning the league a very big challenge. I've gone from enjoying the game to loving it with the changes the minor and major patches have brought in.

Anyone else noticing this? I want to start my Scottish save but the inevitability of Rangers becoming a mid-table side within a few years and being easily overtaken ruins it a bit, with Celtic declining massively by the 5th season mark adding to that. 8 minutes ago, StephenG said: Does this not say the opposite (last sentence)?
