Match fitness nightmare

[prescottrh]

Keeping players match fit is a real problem in this version. Johnson injured for 2 weeks with a dfamaged foot, comes back severely lacking match fitness. 3 games in 14 days, anyone that doesn't play those games ends up severely lacking match fitness.

Make players not match fit available for reserve squad until fit and reserve team coach/manager doesn't select them ahead of reserve squad players. Only fix seems to be to make reserve team players unavailable for reserve games then arrange a ton of friendly matches for the reserves in order that I'll have match fit subs.

I'm talking about match fitness here before anyone says rest players or lower training ergo I'm not talking about conditions such as tired.

I hope they fix this, surely the whole point of having an option of selecting players for reserve team until match fit is that they actually become match fit and stay match fit until the saturday kick off rather than staying match fit for 1 day then losing it all until the game you need them for.

I dont get the point of this. Its been noted as a bug already and is under review for a fix. Not sure what else can be done.

I haven't read anything about a match fitness bug being reviewd only a bug regarding fitness in regard to condition/tired players.

My expctation of this beta was too high clearly, having played the last 3 Wow betas I must have ste my expectation too high, don't get me wrong the wow betas had problems but I've found this FM beta to be distatseful as any form of release, even in beta form. Probably due to the advertising of it as being a "bonus" for pre-order. Its been used as a form of marketing, I've found the whole event quite sinister.

Sinister, Distasteful.

In all honesty, releasing the beta has provided me even more hours of entertainment than the program itself, reading the enormous amount of guff around many forums. Utterly hilarious that such a high percentage of users have absolutely no concept of what they are talking about.

Watch what happens when SI miss one glitch/bug. It'll be like WWIII on all the FM forums. I await with anticipation

I'll have a fridge full of beers ready for it. FM-Base (there are others available, but can be *****) will be comedy central.

Lots of betas are used that way, it was also used to play test the massive variety of systems that brokensjnf8ewhce8.com use, and to stress test thousands of hours of gameplay that simply cannot be done in the same amount of time in house. Nothing sinister or distateful. the fact that you own expectations were too high is not their issue.

Me to Darndio, reading posts by obnoxious people that think by writing, "no concept of what they are talking about" makes me laugh, meaningless slogans writen by people that think typing such words constitutes and informed and reasoned argument.

Yes, those of us criticising this beta that was used as a marketing tool have zero concept whereas a genius like you who would be happy if he beta was a JPEG of a pile excrement re clearly the enlightened. Silly me with my MA bows before your wonderfully meaningless slogans which you have learn't from being a conformist to conservative propoganda.

For gods sake give it ****** rest will you? You made your point, you had your rant on other threads we get the picture. Once again it's going down the petty road with stupid comments and trying to be smug. It's just now incredibly tiresome. It's a game beta. No need to go so incredibly OTT.

jees

The "no concept of what they are talking about" wasn't actually directed at you personally given you claim to have experience of previous beta testing. As I can see this was for WOW, and most certainly an open beta, then I now will say that you indeed have "no concept of what you are talking about". Otherwise you wouldn't have heightened expectations of a beta, would you.

For the record, you have absolutely no idea of what I would be happy with when it comes to a beta. Given part of my actual job is to create, sign off and release beta candidate software, you can be sure that I know what to be happy/not happy with and also take realistic consideration into account.
