Getting a Good Tactic?

[jameshowell]

Ive found the best way is to get an assistant manager with excellent mental tactical knowledge. Then go on holiday for one match and let the assistant choose the tactics! Then there on after use those tactics!!! Ive won 6 on the bounce now scoring atleast 3 times a match and not conceeding too many. What you think?

How do you find out what tactics he's been using?

 

[YatesyLaa]

You dont find out, it just uses the ***-mans knowledge of the game and kinda "sims" the game using his knowledge vs the other managers knowledge

 

[jameshowell]

click on the previous match and then tactics

 

[Gregor]

But the only tactics he can use are the defualt ones which done have mentalties set, so you may as well just make up a formaton yourself w/o settign team and player mentalities

click on the previous match and then tactics

That worked for FM07... but doesn't on FM09!!!

 

[JP Woody]

Its just a form of cheating,whats the point? You might as well go on holiday and let the assistant get on with it.

 

[Gregor]

I wouldnt say its cheating as its just using the defualt tactics that come with the game, although you are letting your *** man pick the tactic. Its probably less 'cheating' than downloading someone elses tactic

 

[JP Woody]

Downloading someone else's tactic doesn't come with success guaranteed,you still need to buy the right players,no tactic guarantees success.My point is why have your assistant do everything for you? Surely that takes all the fun out of playing football manager in the first place.There is no better feeling than creating your own tactic and getting them to work and your team to gel.

 

[Gregor]

Yeh but i assume the user is just putting the *** man in charge for a couple of games then using the *** mans tactic, otherwise he would be putting the *** man in charge the whole time therefore not actually paying the game at all :S

 

[JP Woody]

There is no other way of using your assistant managers tactics other than let him take control of the match.Even if you go to previous match it wont tell you what tactics your assistant used.Unless there is some other way of getting round it.

 

[Gregor]

It will, he just uses the default tactics

 

[Anton86]

Oooooh it is no point anyway! The assistant manager will chose his own tactic, the one he preferes, nothing to do with the team. Go to your assistant manager and watch his profile, the tactic which is there is what he will use with your team. So it might end up being a good tactic for your time but it might as well fail

 

[jameshowell]

My assistant manager is Tassoti from AC. HIs preferred style is 3 4 3 and there isnt a default tactic for that. So they arent defult tactics used!

 

[Gatid]

oh my lord.

if your gonna do that i wouldnt play it to be honest...

whats the fun? mate..

Even if you did win 6 games on the trot, This is football manager dude. it a challenge thats the whole fun of it.

pathetic..

 

[xtopher7]
