Jess how it goes with the new monster PC?
Im now trying a simply tweak to 2nd Visit . I will try differents defensive options for the 3 defenders like all three with man mark or zone mark but the CDL and CDR going to the flanks,etc... I, currently with the all the 3 with man mark...a lot of games with clean sheets,nice anticipation from the 3 defenders but at finish the same feel about the goals against. So I think its not make the tactic better,but not worst for sure. I tryed with my tweak 3rd Visit (2nd Visit with the Tridente defence settings) and also the same feels. So I think we cant improve the defence of 2nd Visit without change the rest of the tactic (I mean make one of de DM pure defensive or more changes like that).
One tactic in mind to try for more defence and strong ofence : The frankie formation with ofensive libero settings for the centre defender,the 2 DM in a defensive role,the AMC with the original settings from frankie,also the same settings for the AMR/L and the jess poachers settings for the 2 strikers.
So the libero will support the attack and the defence and keep possesion for the team,the DMs can recover the ball and conect quicly with the libero,the AMC and the 2 poachers who can go deep to take the ball. For sure the goals for will be less than the original 2nd Visit but I think possesion is the better defence.
Cheers mates,and hey,its seems more people are coming back to fm13 so keep this alive!
Hey mate good to hear from you - Computer is good but a few struggles here and their, mostly with the inbuild wifi, so that makes me a little frustrated. I figured out to enhance graphics in fm13 which is not a huge improvement, but still very noticable so thats good to see. Tried a few other games mostly to test things out - Assassins creed 2-3-4 it looks good but it could look better if i would have bought the rog swift monitor, my mistake - if i should get optimal performance from my monitor i should have 2 graphic cards in sli - which would be 1000 us $ per graphic card - I feel a bit reluctant to invest further money in that right now
About Frankenstein and all other formations - I think formations is where the magic is more than the instructions - I feel very settled about this that the formations you choose is more important than the instructions that you use combined with the quality of the players which is also extremely important. That being said doesnt mean instructions are not important, I just feel it is like this. So if you could make Frankenstein even more attacking that might be even better than Frankenstein 2nd visit - 3 strikers?
I also think that Frankenstein has a vulnerability on the flanks due to its very compact formation. I dont think that you can help that out by giving different instructions to the players or the team. When all that is said I think Frankenstein is one of the most wonderful tactics of fm13 - if any tactic knows how to be dominating its this one and it scores alot of goals like no other - its competition is Marcelo another tactic that has 3 defenders, but this one knows how to defend for some reason, that surprises me - which leads me to say their you have your potential tweak for Frankenstein, but can Frankenstein be tweaked defensively and not lose on the offensive part? I dont know - I wish it could.
I think its worth it trying different extreme formations to see what happens - like Frankenstein is an extreme formation - Brokeback mountain is not an extreme formation - marcelo isnt either and ofcause the 442 and 451 trippletweaked are not extreme formations - they are balanced formations, where in my opinion BBM comes out as the most attractive. The tactic I currently use is with attacking fullbacks a triangular midfield dm,cm,cm and 3 strikers this is with Le Bigot as one of the strikers - they destroy alot one game won 19-0 in a tactic I will call a balanced formation, but this only works because my players are gods for this formation. I sometimes think i should buy fmrte again to experiment with extreme formations and i probably will, because i think their is still that one formation for fm13 that will be remembered as diablo or cmaddict its just a matter of experimenting thinking outside of the box.
Conclusion Im not ready to leave fm13 yet - I have just been preoccupied by other things - and im collecting hunger for the game again
- Experiment like **** guys - try the unthinkable - you will suddenly hit the amazing the unbelievable both on fm13 and life
Cheers - Im still here
Ps If you have a girlfriend and you are asking her to experiment - please dont make a cross reference to this post
