Hey guys,
I am currently trying to do some tests with real teams and the original database and what I do is to ask my assistant manager to do the team talks and training and then I click on holiday mode and just wait for the end of the season. I did it with West Ham United twice and reached a 5th and 6th place and have seen that some players like Sam Bryan have been loaned out and so on... So would this test be reliable to say the tactic can not reach more than a 5th place or do you think it might offer better results when a human is controlling the team?
 
With Simulate Result your assistant manager never change the tactic during the match ... with Holiday mode Assistant manager sometimes change the tactic during the match ... So ...

Simulate Match - 100% Testing Tactic
Holiday Mode - about 80% Testing Tactic

What is the difference between simulating and holiday mode?
How can I just simulate the game? Or do you mean always holidaying till the next match, then I make my team and then once again go to holiday for just one day and tell my assistant to pick up the same team and tactic?
 
But if you want to test tactic with Holiday Mode , you must to tiked the option Use Current Match Tactics before going on Holiday . Than always start the match with your tactic , but during the match Assistant Manager sometimes change the tactic... With Simulate Result never change the tactic during the match .

also testing using the real database is very unreliable even when using simulated result as each save you test in the other clubs will buy different players and different players will get injuries etc.
 
IMO, using real league, simulate match and FMFitnessCoach to freeze the condition and morale of all teams produce more accurate result for the tested league than using fake teams with players and tactic formations and mentalities that is different from the actual.


Of course the accuracy can even be increase more by creating a custom DB that has transfer embargo on all team and perhaps all player's consistency and big match change to 20.
 
None are 100%. Holiday is the worst of the 3 by far though.
