2nd balls off long kicks more effective?
kepz replied to tajj7's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion
such an unimpressive and incomplete simulator they trotted out to ask us to pay full price for. -

An entire month of home matches to start the season... ...with a months-worth of away days to end it. -

Please fix MLS trade negotiations so that I can actually negotiate them instead of having them outright rejected. -

This has been an issue for a while, but can you please fix the staff search function? If I am looking for recruitment analysts, I shouldn't have to waste a negotiation with someone who, despite being in the results for 'recruitment analyst', is only interested in being a scout or some other job that isn't the one I'm searching for. I even add the extra search layer of 'preferred job > is', but that doesn't matter. Really annoying and a massive waste of time. -

Yes, actually, it does. And you raise a good point. I am more or less disappointed that the "exploit" is so easy to find. I understand that you can't account for everything. I wouldn't be so sad about it if I didn't love the game. What I find stale is that I don't see my wide forward players getting more goals--but I will dive into some other tactics videos and see what I can do. And, as someone else mentioned earlier, halfway through our season we've been "found out" by a few teams. So, I suppose, even when you find something exploitative, the AI will try its best to nullify or stop it. Maybe my mileage will vary once I've gotten out of the lower leagues and have to play tougher competition. -

Do you play games looking to win them or lose them? Pretty silly reply that doesn't address anything I said at all. There should be more than 1 viable path to a great tactic from a football simulator. That shouldn't be a controversial opinion. -

Step 1) Find 3 strikers over 189 cm Step 2) Place them at the top of your formation Step 3) Win games The match engine doesn't feel very dynamic and the game gets incredibly stale when you realize it cannot cope with this at any level. Incredibly disappointing stuff. -

How do we still have matches with kit clashes and GK kits that blend with the outfield kits in FM 2023? Seems like a pretty basic thing to avoid. -
Has anyone seen a player miss a penalty?
kepz replied to HurkaDurk69's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Just had a shootout after a back-to-back quarter final cup tie with only a day's rest between matches, and yet, despite a full 120 minutes, every one of mine and the opposition's players shot their pen on target. No one missed! In a lower division cup tie! Fatigued beyond poor, with low composure, awful finishing and even worse penalty attributes. The game even bothered to show how scuffed the pen spot was! -

You can easily win games, too, just by resting players during fixture congestion because the AI will run their best players ragged without care. -

For as much talk as there was about improved defending in FM23, I don't see it at all. Maybe it is because I am in the lower leagues, but keeping a clean sheet is practically impossible without luck. In other words, there is nothing a human player can do to best set up the team to first and foremost negate the attack. It is really sad, especially given how successful defensive tactics were at the World Cup. I hope someone who mostly plays top-level leagues will quote this saying that the defending is better at the higher levels, but, after reading through these comments, it doesn't seem likely. I ***really*** hope there is a good patch coming that makes defending possible. This current iteration of the ME means, in my experience at least, you HAVE to try to control possession or go out on the attack, or else you'll be cannon fodder. -

Am I the only one seeing a wild amount of red cards in lower leagues?
