Simulation matches

by CBP87, May 1, 2024

Hi @Zippo and @Droid,

Has there been a change in how many matches a tactic will be tested for? I've noticed over the last few days that tactics that have scored relatively high, have only been tested for a few thousand matches.

Below are just a few examples of tactics that have scored high but not been tested for the usual 9300 matches -

Hi, @CBP87.

Our dedicated algorithm determines how many matches to test a tactic and it's constantly adjusting.

It's just the scores that were considered by the algorithm as "relatively high scores" some time ago, now aren't considered as "relatively high scores" due to the increase of the top score.

I hope that helps.

Cheers.

Cheers mate, appreciate the response

Appreciate time / resource is always the limiting factor which explains why you couldn't (and shouldn't) put poorly performing tactics through the same number of tests as those that perform well but it's truly bonkers you don't test the elite tactics the same number of times.  How can you say with any conviction #1 is better than #2 when they've been tested a different number of matches (given the only reason you test them thousands of times is because of the effect of RNG)?!?

Who actually tests the tactics for 9000+ seasons? Have you got a dedicated team of testers? Sorry I am new here so just intrigued.

It's 9,600 matches.

9,600 matches / 38matches(1 season) = 252 seasons

The testing is automated and done by fm-arena testing server.

OK thanks for the clarification. :)
