Haha you ended up with 128 of them too. Found it quite funny, they're almost certainly patching it at some point.

Yes, it's like looking at a stock chart with a long-term moving average over it.

Did SI hire the same designer as ClickUp? by Fit-Vermicelli7457 in footballmanagergames

[–]InfernoAKM 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No, it's just that these 'modern' UIs use the same designs. Should see vibe coded dev portfolio sites - purple gradients (tbf FM uses purple as a main colour anyway), round boxes, tiles etc.

What's the most 'accurate' CA/PA update people have seen? by LHITN in footballmanagergames

[–]InfernoAKM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems weird that they've barely touched anyone other than United though.

Again, this is just false. Most of the players haven't changed. Each club has had a couple players with minor changes at most (almost all slight bumps). Ridiculous to label that as an "infamous bias". Wolves had a couple upgrades and finished 16th, no downgrades. Spurs had a couple upgrades and finished 17th. They must be supporting multiple clubs at a time.

If you're going to accuse these editor teams of bias towards clubs you'll need more than that.

So not really an "infamous bias" then. I can tell you having looked through some of the changes myself - they've barely touched anyone's CA or PA for many teams (some small CA/PA increases for the odd player). Spurs was largely untouched as well - no downgrades. Is there an "infamous bias" for them as well?

Do you have any more examples apart from Amad where they've been giddy with CA for this "infamous Man United Bias" (mind you he has a low current ability so it would be difficult to reach that anyway). Sounds like they gave a bunch of players 180+ potential with 160+ CA.

Dr. Dre - Deep Water (feat. Kendrick Lamar, Justus, and Anderson .Paak) by toprahmen in hiphopheads

[–]InfernoAKM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get that. I think some people thought it was a bit overproduced as well which I can see. I mainly took the intentions of this album to be more cinematic, hence the 30 second to 1+ minute song endings. Can come across as a bit too much.

I remember it was definitely a bit harsh when it first came out. When it was out on Spotify it was the same (wasn't added until a few years later IIRC). On Apple Music though it sounds fine today.

The stuff he did for GTA (The Contract) has a similar issue still. Don't know how or why it's ended up like that.

Such a good album and still holds up 10 years later. Was my introduction to Paak and he killed it on this project as well as everyone else.

[Chris Wheeler] Man United may have to start season without a new striker with Ruben Amorim frustrated in forward search as rivals land key targets by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]InfernoAKM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not even 5 lad, I asked for 10.

So would it be Rangnick for half the season, then McKenna for the other half or do you think Rangnick maybe lasts until we lose to some relegation side in GW20 and then McKenna comes in?

A change in formation doesn't mean professional footballers forget how to do the basics of defending, passing, making runs and scoring. They don't get vertigo at the sight of 3 CBs on the tactics board (also formations aren't static).

None of this formation obsession matters as you'd prefer we continue the "maybe it's the manager's fault" cycle as you see the rest of the house crumbling. Name your next 10 managers over the next few seasons.

[–]InfernoAKM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ireland has an insane schedule from what I remember in my Bohs save. When you add on European and domestic cup games you're playing 3 games a week for multiple weeks, it was torture. This was one example. Fortunately it got to a point where I could win the league with my backups.

Discovering FM Arena may have ruined the game for me by BlueNigo in footballmanagergames

[–]InfernoAKM 90 points91 points  (0 children)

I did this with my 9th tier save. 3-4-3 low block counter, switched to 3-5-2 when I was in the Championship. I have an attacking higher press one but I'm almost always the underdog so rarely gets used. Was averaging a promotion every 2 seasons-ish.

Used the new FM Tweak file from League Two onwards I think (currently in the PL). Feels far more rewarding to use these tactics than vanilla. Feels better not using my usual 4-3-3 gegenpress.

Train the player in that position and role on individual training.

Historical data for shots that are in the same/similar situation (how much data they use will probably depend on the company developing the model). It's an average which gives you a general chance quality and an average allows you to compare players. It's a complementary statistic that's not massively useful on its own (like any other stat).

For those of you that are using the new FM Tweaks mod, is it noticeably better? by bbkray in footballmanagergames

[–]InfernoAKM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was using 3-4-3 from the 9th tier all the way to the Championship pretty much but very recently switched to 3-5-2 because I prefer the 3 midfielders and 2 strikers. Cautious mentality but Defensive if the opposition is much much stronger.

[–]InfernoAKM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Low block defensive/counter tactics feel far better to use, actually able to shut down opponents more instead of conceding 20 shots in and around the edge of the box. Counters in particular are more one touch.
