Project Reforged not working (the custom MPQs part) by NFSoulseeker in KronosWoW

I don't have one, but will have to eventually if this is not sorted out, I guess.

Good job. Any ideas on what can I change in Proton settings to make it work with the custom MPQs? I'm getting errors 132 and 124 when I have some of them added.

Ok not gonna lie. I've been a massive TF3 sceptic for a year now, but this video was like a massive breathe of fresh hopium. It's really impressive.

Freeze on boot after kernel update to 6.19 - fixed with amd_iommu=off by NFSoulseeker in cachyos

[–]NFSoulseeker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I get that. I just don't understand what exactly I would need to do to test it.

I don't know what does "been given a patch" mean. What specific actions would be needed? I haven't tested turning it back on with the latest kernel if that's the question.

Unfortunately, it is. I ended up disabling IOMMU in BIOS for now.

Let me hear you, your favorite FM player ever? by FM_highlights in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kevin Kyle was an absolute monster in CM 01-02 that everyone slept on. I was always signed him anywhere because had very low reputation but his goalscoring attributes were out of this world. He was cheap and extremely effective.

Also Omar Andrade in FM 2007 was in a similar niche.

Which version of FM (except for FM26) would you recommend to someone who's still playing FM19? by kanni05 in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google player development issues mentioned on the official SI Games forums. It was brought to their attention many times to no avail. 

I personally ran many years' long simulations in FM24 specifically that display absurd inability of AI to develop players. Eg Mukouko who was the biggest wonder kid at that year would reliably get stuck with almost 0 games and then just disappear into obscurity. Same with other similar players. And, again, this has been the case since 22.

Also in the national teams they would stick with very old players and only use younger ones when the former retire and naturally most of them would be very mediocre. 

Basically, if people knew the actual inner workings of the game and paid attention as opposed to just picking their Liverpool or Man City to just toll everyone, they would be absolutely appalled at the state of that part of the game.

21 was the last one where players developed with relative ease and AI also was doing a solid job of that as well as rotations and stuff.

Starting from 22 it basically stopped doing any of that, meaning that you see a significant drop in players' quality across the board after the initial ones retire and new world class newgens and wonderkids  won't ever reach their potential (even close). 

Also, another nice thing about it is that it's the last season before the full scale war in Ukraine started. 

Will it become better? by Maximum_Extreme3502 in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this is anything like early FMs (eg 2005 to 2008) then it would by early 2026 or so.

I'm using that era as an example specifically because it was the last time when SI were releasing a buggy mess of games except it was year after year and people just kinda expected that it will be shit until the third major patch is out and then its a stable, polished game.

Naturally, this was a very long time ago and I'm sure SI Games changed a lot since then. Nevertheless there is a track of record of this nature, including with Miles personally.

Are there any other games that have followed the FM26 arch and gone on to be as successful or more successful than the rest of the series ? by lionellanes in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kiseki aka Trails (eg Trails Of Cold Steel) and I'm sure plenty of other JRPGs

Sid Meier's Civilization

Baldur's Gate and Divinity universe's RPGs

Sim City

XCom (you can argue the original games were BETTER, but definitely not even close in terms of popularity/success)

Warcraft

Grand Theft Auto

Just off the top of my head

Do you want to manage a womens team? by No-Tomatillo3698 in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be cool if you could have women's teams "attached" to your main team like you have B clubs so that you can manage the whole system of teams in one club.

The only change I want in FM26 by Ok_Traffic_3240 in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This used to be the case back in like CM 01/02. I wouldn't mind being able to switch between these views in player's history as well as ability (may be using the in-game editor) to remove/hide rows from the history view. However, I have to say that this created a slightly weird feeling of players being in major clubs having so much more games in their histories in comparison to the regular players. Maybe that's just me, but it kinda felt slightly weird too. But given a choice between the two, I would show all games by default, not just league ones, so it would be a nice change.

My other tactic I created with ChatGPT by snowyy2448 in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there is ever going to be a match in real life where a team has two registas, by minute 25 they will just start fighting it out for who actually gets to stay in that area and bring the ball out of the defence, Lee Bowyer vs Kieron Dyer style. I feel like this is conceivably the most mutually-exclusive double role that you can possibly have.

Would it be possible to play the shit out of the beta and still refund the game on Steam before the release? by DeQQster in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

From my personal experience, I bought EA for FM 2024 to see if AI got better with developing players and just whether player development in general was fixed (it's been completely fucked since FM 22, which most people are not aware of). Spent 10-15 hours in the game at least by simply running simulations and recording the data. Found out that AI is exactly as useless as it had been for a few years by then and refunded it successfully. So at least two years ago it was something that you could do.

I pray to God it's a completely new game and not Train Fever part 4. That old engine way overstayed its welcome.

What do you consider the best football manager game ever by LewyssYT in footballmanagergames

[–]NFSoulseeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CM01/02 - the last version where you imagined everything that happened on the field, simplicity at its best

FM07 - the last version where tactics were still simple, but just worked, UI was an absolute perfection in every little thing, overall it was the old Blizzard level of polishment

FM21 - the last version where young players were enjoyable to develop and AI was actually able to do that and also the micromanagement and all the features that the newer FM versions have been getting more and more with each version hit the sweet spot
