I guess Ranieri is "cheating" in real life then right?
Raineri changes his plan every game, and during the game... Go train a team in real life and use the same tactic always in a match, other managers will adapt and you will lose alot of games. On FM that also happens, but there is some tactics, that allows your playes with even CA alot lower than the opposit team win almost every game.
Some people call cheat, others easy mode. On FM 2015 for ex. wasn't needed to much effort, short corner and through balls... Ai have bugs (in all FMs is possible to "exploit" the match engine), that's why some tactics allows you to do 0 tactic management during the game, like changing tempo, focus on a side were the danger comes from, shouts... and win most of the games and like i said you normally do this with a worst team than the AI. If you are the guy that figured out how to "exploit" the Ai, there is alot of credit in that.
- Saving your game is cheating
- Using GenieScout to find players is cheating
- Downloading a good tactic is cheating
Cheating = allows you to beat the game using unfair resources(bugs and exploits included) or resources that aren't avaliable for all players. Also since is a game based on real life... is very easy to see what is cheating or not. Some cheats have alot more impact than others.
Save and reload allows you to win every game, just imagine a Real Manager with the ability to travel in time. Also you can save and reload before Youth Intake combined with scout is just gg. Also if you have more than 35years old and you save before youth intake you can reload until you have a son (i don't think there is a limit, saw people with 2 sons), if you want a son, unless your lucky you gonna need to use this... anyway can take alot of time, you just want a son and i think there is no guarantee he will have good PA
Genie and others scout-> Allows you to see all future stars and buy them for some pennys and sell them for millions, also gives you full information about the players and hidden attributes that helps alot like consistency and important games. This is the dream of all Agents, knowing how to find the best players on the world and be their agents (I want to be a billionare). Also with Genie is very easy to make a world class team and have billions of transfere budget. The scout system in FM is already alot better than reallity, also you can disable a option and see all atributes (i think is disabled by default, i always use that, what means is i can always see all atributes of the players... ) with genie is impossible to make mistakes in relation to a player since you also see their hidden atributes and some of them are static and very important (PA, consistency, important games... things like professionalism and ambition you can change by tutoring the players)
FMRTE and others editors can also work as scout-> i heard Ronaldo and Messi are going to play for my team for free, also Ronaldo is too old he should have 20 and 200 pa like messi. I need staff 5star, i can just edit this ones. This guy with alot pa have low professionalism, ambition, consistency and important matches, also i don't have any tutors well i don't needed... i can just fix his stats.
Download Tactics-> Already said why... i use this
Be happy and play like you want. You bought the game you can do whatever you want... if you are playing solo.
