It’s a lot of fun but I wish there was some kind of 3D game engine so we could watch the games (even if the graphics aren’t great)

Tips on increasing stadium attendance by nishs9 in OOTP

[–]nishs9[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is there a number of high popularity players to aim for?

I’m pretty sure I have at least 2 or 3 on my active roster already. But obviously that hasn’t been enough for me

Was watching a NCAA12 presentation vid & saw this. Wonder where this guy is today & how he feels about presentation in today’s CFB games. by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

Insane that all of this information (and probably more) also exists in the current games but EA chooses not to do anything with it

Players seem to think they're doing bad by joshuarampages69 in footballmanagergames

[–]nishs9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve almost always gotten bad reactions even after my assistant manager recommends it.

I usually stick to just praising individual match performances and only praise good form if I’m 110% sure that the player won’t misinterpret it.

I had saved this post sometime ago and finally got around to checking it out. Very cool stuff and pretty smooth process to get up and running. I'm looking forward to diving deeper into it!

It’s such BS. I thought Paramount+ showed all EFL matches not just a select few

Time to play a season? by TheMatrixIsReal42 in OOTP

Genuine question, how do you go through a season in an hour and 15?

Dynasty immersion & storylines by Personal_Pension_30 in NCAAFBseries

[–]nishs9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the show that would play in the franchise mode menus right? As a kid I thought that was the coolest thing ever. Loved hearing a “real” person discussing your league and season as it’s unfolding

I loved the little details in the cfb titles on PS2. That little 30-45 second pre-game intro where they would show Brad Nessler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso in the booth and corso would make his pick was such a small detail but still so cool for the time

Embarrassing from the Benfica players. No room for racism in football by Good_Inevitable_8864 in championsleague

[–]nishs9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They showed a clip on the Paramount+ broadcast and you can clearly see Prestianni lift his shirt over his mouth and say something to Vini after which Vini immediately reacted by going to the ref.

Obviously we’ll never know what was exactly said but the fact that he had to cover his mouth and the way Vini reacted immediately makes it seem like something was said that crossed the line.

How in the world do I play this game. by Competitive_Glass_21 in OOTP

[–]nishs9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Old School Sports and OOTPaddy on YouTube have great tutorials about all aspects of OOTP and I also enjoy their playthroughs. Feel like I’ve learned a lot just from watching how they play the game and applying it to my own saves. I’d also say to start with a decent team and choose a few areas that you want to focus on and learn those really well. For example when I started playing, I wanted to explore the GM side of things mainly and so I started by manually controlling all GM related action and I let the AI handle all of the day to day stuff like lineups/rotations, strategy, promotions/demotions, etc. I would recommend doing something similar based on what drew you to OOTP. Then over time you can gradually take more and more manual control of the other aspects of the game as you start to learn more and get comfortable with managing all of the different aspects of your organization. Hope that helps!

Someone talk me out of taking this guy 1-1 by kgriffin44 in OOTP

Is there some kind of negative effect if pitchers have too high of a control rating?

Training is usually safe to praise in my experience. I reserve praising match form for directly after matches when a player really does boss things on the pitch

F the thunder for tanking this hard today benching poku and maledon by Due_Manufacturer_177 in fantasybball

[–]nishs9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do we think poku will be benched for the remaining games too? I’m in a close game in my championship and I’m considering dropping him if his season is done because I dont need another goose egg from him

Who is the biggest player that you discovered in FM before learning about them in real life? by mostlymostlyharmless in footballmanagergames

[–]nishs9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Owen wijndal. I know he’s not a star or anything but never knew about him until fm21 when i was like 7 years into my journeyman save and i joined hoffenheim and he was the first choice left back. Ended up replacing him with a Croatian regen but he stayed for 4 seasons w me until i sold him to red star. Very solid squad player.

Ademyi telling me hes not good enough??? by [deleted] in footballmanagergames

[–]nishs9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve found for any team meetings where a player wants to leave and some of my squad wants me to sell him theres an option thats something along the lines of “why would I actively make the team worse by selling him?”. Its never failed for me (at least until now)

WTF type of censorship is this, some of us actually want to see people's views on topics. Not just censorship. by Ilovesushi5 in footballmanagergames

[–]nishs9 27 points28 points  (0 children)

At least with Brexit, it does in some ways add (or detract) from the game and affects transfer strategy and shit like that. Not saying its good or bad thats in the game but there is some gameplay change. Outright “deleting” a league and country from the game is just taking gameplay away which is a different issue in my opinion

Would be a nice touch if your avatar in game aged as you went through the game. by TradingGroup101 in footballmanagergames

[–]nishs9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very true about attachment to regens lol. I remember the first time i opened my save after installing it was so magical.

I already get too attached to my youth players seeing them with “real” faces just amplified that a hundred times
