    Tactics & Training: The " I have a small question " thread

    here's a question that actually fits in quite nicely to ongoing discussions about Player Roles... Does anyone know if the Player Roles are solely defined by the Player Instruction ''templates'' What I mean is, are there 'hard-coded' settings for certain player roles or will, for example, a...

    but Raikan, are they still potential stars, or is a good way of knowing that they are reaching or have reached their potential? sorry to keep going on

    The 300 (Legend Database)

    Great idea, you are a man after my own heart I did this sort of thing in Pro Evo 6 - players who where in the game but past their best, I copied and returned to their former glory.

    Funny/Random things in FM2011

    I was playing a cup game and it finished 1-1 and went to ET and pens. Nothing strange happened as far a I could tell... I set up my penalty takers, I hit Space and it for some reason it skipped the penalties and went to the post-match screen - where I wqas greeted by the discovery that I had...

    Thoughts on player descriptions

    I'm sure there's somebody out there who can give me an answer to this, and blow the discussion out of the water but.......... How much can you read into the player descriptions, with regards to their age/development status? eg: Young midfielder = just a youngster, nothing special...

    Latest Patch

    I'm no expert, but surely your 'predicament' is just the game giving you another challenge - isn't that a good thing? Personally I try not to think of FM in terms of 'patches' and 'bugs' - I like to immerse myself in it and forget it's a game (H)

    Your Current Line Up

    I think DownRightUpright has a great idea with posting images for their regens - otherwise there's no point is there? May I suggest putting their CA and PA aswell, just to see how they compare to real players in those terms? MY team hasn't got any (yet) so I can't practice what I preach...
