Dave Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 https://www.footballmanager.com/news/development-update-football-manager-25-0 I think these are all pretty alarming to be honest. No international management, player weights and tactical touchline instructions feels like a major step back. The first two inparticular were there when I first played in Christmas 2001.

Whiskey Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Only 5.6% of people played international management on FM, I myself have only ever managed properly in this area of the game once in all the editions I've played - moving it to 26 to improve the experience is fine by me. Weights, again is fine by me as I never really used it when scouting a player. It's far less important than height for example. Touchline shouts is a puzzling one though, as that's something that I use in every single game. To not have them (or an alternative) would be strange.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted September 5 Subscriber Share Posted September 5 Touchline shouts are a bit crap though to be honest. It's one of those features that should be there but they've just done it really badly. It's either "fire up" or "encourage" for what's basically a 10 minute morale boost and anything else just seems to puzzle everything. I've seen people playing it before and they just hit that as a bit of a button bash if anything. It's a really badly executed feature. I've tried international management and just can't do it. I managed Australia on FM once along with my own job and I thought at the World Cup I'm going to take this seriously enough to track the whole tournament properly and watch the 90 minutes, play it properly. Couldn't do it. Think I managed one half and went back to extended commentary. Went out in the groups. It's just one of those things that'll never be particularly enjoyable although I don't really understand why you would take the option away either.

Moderator Tommy Posted September 7 Moderator Share Posted September 7 I was looking forward to managing Germany's women's national team. But they're moving the game to a complete different engine. Sounds like it's a lot tougher than they expected. This is going to be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember FM23 (might have been 22/24, they all merge into one) being an absolute bugfest at launch. It was the one where after one season no clubs could register players and SI took months to fix it. I can see this being the same, it's to be expected with all the changes but yeah, I'm expecting a bit of a mishmash release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 I don’t think any of what isn’t there is a big deal. I’ve genuinely never even considered weight when looking at a player to buy or any player at the club I’m “managing”. I don’t even know if the number ever changes like when you get the “Player A has returned to training in great shape” or whatever the line is. I’ve never done create a club, either. That’s very FIFA. Also don’t think I’ve managed internationally for about 10 years, if not even longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how it shows the league and plots parameters like; Most shots, least shots, most converted, least converted etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use xg match story (or whatever its called), pitch tilt, set piece goals, match momentum etc... primarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
