Samscott83 said: Apologies if this has been covered but what do you do with Touchline Shouts. Think the tactic is great but sometimes there are games where my team just can't perform despite games before where they have completely dominated. I am presuming this is just a case of sometimes your team can't play well for every game but was wondering what impact touchline instructions have Expand

MakeSuRE said: I've tried several combinations of two man in mid and what I found is that you will be frustrated by the disastrous defensive plays with no DM. Expand
You can also play with two DMs, but then it will lack attacking power.
pixar said: I'm using the old training system. But I have a question. Normally, defense training is done in the evenings according to your schedule, but if the next day is match day, the game analyzes the opponent. Do you manually fix this as a defense or leave it that way? Expand
I just leave match preview because I think it's bothersome to change, but you can change it if you want.
TomSteg94 said: Using Fire 0.2, won the PL and Europa League with Arsenal. No 1st team signings and plenty of injuries. Switched off 'get stuck in' PI as soon as a player gets a yellow. Great tactic. Expand
Nebuuuu said: So, as always, playing with Hertha BSC (Bundesliga) and first 11 league matches + cup are played. So far, so pretty good. Sure, the defensive feels a little bit loose but its also because of the kinda low defenders/players. 7 wins/2 draws/2 losses. My striker Kanga, 12 matches, 14 goals, best scorer in league so far. Here some screenshots from Blue 4.0, later changed to Fire 0.2.
Thanks ZaZ, wish you all a great weekend after tomorrows workday. Expand
Do you use the exact same training for your reserves and youngsters as your first team? I'm mostly curious if you have the same settings for the (Rest) training? Expand
Same training, same rest settings, and also remember to fix coach assignments. Even if you don't want to run youth teams, it is a good idea to pick the selection to youth team, so you can put the right players to have more match time.
Schneedler said: Thought I would post an update on the tactic through my Aberdeen save, been playing through and over the last 14 games (after the Rangers cup final) have dabbled with changing the mentality through the matches as well which doesn't impact the tactic offensively much at all but does seem to help a lot with limiting come backs from the other side, was seeing a few games when going up 2-3 early on the other side would make dramatic comebacks to level the game up, when changing mentality down to balanced/cautious and even defensive at times away from home the team still looked lethal going forward and a bit more solid at the back to counter the other side playing more positively, still conceded 12 in those 14 games and even took a 1-0 loss to Hibs where they had 1 shot all game (classic fm) but that's not a bad defensive record in my opinion in this game. very enjoyable tactic, predicted 3rd start of the season and miles clear at the top just now with 7 to play Expand
Check "Bad Results" in the first post.
Still the same, and injuries are low.
I do the shouts myself.
It is one of the first things I will try.
You can also play with two DMs, but then it will lack attacking power.
Yeah, I am just testing team and player instructions by now. I will start roles and formations after next patch.
In one or two days I release 0.3, then will keep testing more things before beta ends.
Chewbacca said: I think testing tactics with Man City should be forbidden
To be fair, he is unrealistically overpowered in reality too.
Still testing. That 163 goals just a fluke, the average is just around 145 goals a season.
I am currently testing team and player instructions, and only after that I will test roles and formations.
I just leave match preview because I think it's bothersome to change, but you can change it if you want.
It's the start of my long save game with Rennes, beautiful start.
Thanks for testing, and gratz for the results!
I have a few different formations in a queue to test, but not tested yet.
Thank you for testing!
So far, so pretty good.

Yeah, they usually start only after release.
Yes, same training schedule.
Thank you for testing and showing so much data!
You really should upload your tactics to where they belong to
I'm still testing to see how a first version would look like. Real testing in FM-Arena will only start in almost two weeks, anyway.
