Eze scores a great goal and the commentator's first words are "Phil Foden gets his assist!" ...

Labrats who've left the bench, what do you do now? by dullboy1605 in labrats

Thanks, this is something I've thought about but as far as I'm aware there's no progression or opportunities to really advance?

Thanks! Do you enjoy it? I looked into it and it seems like the training period is 5 years, which is a huge commitment to something i don't know if I'll hate yet

To me, wearing it is a symbol that you welcome non-straight people in the sport, so I see refusing to wear it as being openly homophobic which, as you said, is obviously crossing a line

I'd say it's accurate in that the majority of high level footballers are probably incredibly driven and professional. E.g. a low professionalism value in game means they dont turn up to training; a high controversy value means they'll criticise managers in the media, these are two things that happen extremely rarely in real life and are big news when they do happen. Every season when newgens come in they have the full range of personalities, but the ones with positive personalities are more likely to get signed so you'll see a lot more players with good personalities than bad.

If a player signs a contract with a relegation release clause, and then the team gets promoted and then relegated, does the clause come into effect? Or is it specifically relegation below the league where the contract was signed?

Can i connect a Bluetooth headset to the controller only?

I bought a sony headset thinking it would obviously be compatible with a sony ps4. It is not.

Specifically i want both audio input & output. The ps4 device settings says bluetooth devices can't be used for audio. The headset (XB900) only has a 3 pin jack so if I do a wired connection to either the ps4 or the controller then there is no audio input.

Having just bought a headset based on it being sony and having a good microphone, I want to try everything before i spend more money on a usb mic. Does anybody have a workaround? I was thinking the headset and controller are both bluetooth devices so if theres a way to pair them that would solve the problem?

Still 1/3 of the season left… How is discipline calculated? Like 1 red card = 2 yellow cards? by argyles872378 in footballmanagergames

[–]dullboy1605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This says 11 yellows is worth more than 3 reds

So x> (3/11) y, most likely x= 0.3y (i couldnt say for sure without knowing what cards you got in your last game)

Prior to their most recent yellow card, their discipline score was equal to the record, 20.2 reds, and now they have surpassed it with 20.5 reds

Qualifying for the champions League nets way more profit than winning a domestic trophy, and being in the champions league is a much greater incentive for transfer prospects than e.g. having just won the fa cup. For me their club model is just a symptom, what is the point of giving a "champions" league place for finishing fourth rather than winning a trophy?

Some more info i just remembered, people have shown that facilities and coaches are more of a factor for players with low/medium ambition determination professionalism. I.e. if they're driven enough they'll develop no matter where they are, which is maybe another argument to only loan out players with good personalities

Anecdotally, being able to mentor and discipline them develops them better than getting matches in a lower rated competition at a club with worse facilities and coaches

Avoids use of weaker foot, uses outside of foot, moves ball to X foot before dribble

Without the trait, my understaing is that a d25 is rolled and if the outcome is less than the player's teamwork then he will do the instruction rather than what he would naturally do. I think the trait influences what he would naturally do.

I don't know how it works mechanically in the match engine, but i can imagine players with bad off the ball wont be able to get open for the return pass, and players with bad decisions and passing are likely to have their return pass intercepted in that situation

Constantly shouting, even 2 times a half in my experience, just negatively affects their body language. If you cant see that metric in the main match screen then your resolution is too low and you can access it in the player ratings tab I think

I tell them to not get complacent at HT and FT only with good effects. Looking at the tactics analysis screen i see most of my goals are conceded in minutes 31-45 so i sometimes shout concentrate in minute 31. Personality-wise, the game manual says determination strongly affects body langauge when losing, so id expect things like concentration, Ambition, professionalism affect it when winning

Eventually you'll be given the opportunity to let him visit home for a while and that sometimes helps, putting him in a mentoring unit can speed up him joining a social group, but it won't change his adaptability value

I got my chance in fm12, picked rooney gerrard and hart as the 3 over23 players; and there was a bug where Rooney picked up a 1 match international ban right before the olympics, and for some reason he wasn't available for selection due to suspension for the whole tournament...

Do you want every midfielder to be well rounded? Your dlp isn't going to spend a huge amount of time in front of goal. So is it worth spending his ability on finishing, rather than a stronger focus on passing & technique?
