Dimmu Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Anyone played it already? I'm setting game up at the moment as I need some ammunition to January transfer suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicME85 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Will bump this thread as we have been talking FM in the transfer speculation thread. In response to OP, I play, have played and owned each FM, have beta tested a couple too. Have been playing SI's games since CM97/98, have some good memories of that.

Ashz09 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I remember champ manager 96 was brilliant. Played them all up until 2004 I think then got bored not brought one since. Every single one was easy to get promoted and win the treble etc. Used to enjoy taking confrence teams to the champions league etc. After many years it does become to repetitive all the time.

RicME85 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Anyone do the Dafuge challenge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy Ram Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I find this version complicated and time consuming. I don't like training - or can't figure it out. Same with searching for players, can you search or do you have to scout regions for everything? And I played every single version of this game since 93. I guess I'm getting old.

RicME85 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Yeah its more bloated and complicated than it needs to be. Have you tried the Classic mode? As for players...you can search if you know the name by clicking the mag glass in the top bar (right hand side), if you just want to search through a list a players, much like previous games then it is limited by your clubs knowledge. On the left bar, Scouting - this is like the old player search screen where you apply filters to find players with certain attributes etc. To get more players to show you will need scouts and staff that have knowledge of countries to increase the pool of players you can search. Training- I always just leave that to my assistant. The staff responsibility screen is great for reducing your work load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Bradley Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I also leave training to assistant when I do it players moan working them to hard I'm finding this years easy to win league but that could be the tactics I am using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always liked the hands on approach and like to improve players ball skills, technique and passing. I also like to group players - this version you cant - they just all do the same training with specific individual focus. (Unless I haven't noticed the tab). Anyways thanks for letting me, was going mental at my laptop trying to search for players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Bradley Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Also find players go mardi really early on this game Russel always wants to leave and go to Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicME85 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Its a big issue that has been brought up on the official forums over and over again. I know someone who works at SI and he said it is being looked into, hopefully will be included in the patch that comes out after the Jan window closes.

RicME85 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I had to do the same. Had Bryson wanting to go to Villa but had Hughes and Hendrick out so had to say no, this lead to everyone saying I was being a right Kim Jong Un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, you can no longer create training profiles for say Gk, Def, Mid, Fwd and then set the players into each group. As you say, you can however tell each player to train to work on a specific attribute. I find that as long as you use something like this: http://www.fmscreener.com/online-calculator... so that you get 5 star coverage on each area of training then improvements can be made easily enough.
