I'll keep complaining about the finishing on this game until it improves.

It's so unfair that I manage to create so many chances per game but fail to convert them. Meanwhile the AI creates 2 proper chances per game, and converts them.

The finishing is abysmal. Not playing this game until it gets better.
 
For people moaning about number of attempted shots on goal and nothing to show for it-last Saturday in the Norwich v Cardiff match, Norwich had 61% possession, 31 shots-the most by any side in a single match this season. Final score? 0-0

Something to perhaps think about perhaps. These things do happen

These things happen too often on Football Manager. Top, top strikers are missing ludicrous chances.

I can't say as I've not come across it to be honest-don't if I'm lucky or what. But irl if you have a player like Torres missing an open goal for example from a few yards out-just proves it can happen. Just sods law
 
- Cannot get your Goalkeeper to distribute to a certain defender, which has cost me 2 matches so far
- Leaking in far too many goals from corners
- Defenders ratings seem to be terrible every game
- Natural goal scorers missing from 6 yards one on one
- Players passing it to the opposition when its clearly easier to pass it to a team mate

Indeed, these things do happen but they don't happen EVERY game to sides that top the prem like Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City. No, Man City win 7-0 and norwich are crushed. In the FM Man City would have gone 2 up and norwich would suddenly turn into barcelona and pull 2 back
 
Oh what a surprise, you're one of these people who think because something happens once in a blue moon in real life it's ok for it to happen once every week in FM, sorry to burst your bubble there sir but until this happens every week in real life what you posted was complete nonsense.

condescending much? And you know it happens "once in a blue moon" how? Do you watch every single match all over the world do you? Believe it or not, life does exist outside the premier league, so neither you or I know just how often this sort of thing happens. So I advise dismounting your high horse, because all I did was make an observation.

Christ almighty
 
Playing as Juve and i can't really seem to get my strikers involved enough which results in tevez not scoring any goals and posting ***** ratings quite often... Llorente has been faring a bit better but it's still not ideal. I'm playing a 4-2-3-1 with an advanced forward in front of an advanced playmaker... Anyone know what i can do? Play tevez as poacher and llorente as TM ?

EDIT: Also first youth intake, only get one guy with over 2 stars potential :/

100% agree with you but it happens far too often on the game to be realistic. I just lost 2-1 at home to Northampton after have 23 shots on target and hitting the woodwork 6 times.

These things do happen, granted, but not with the regularity they do in this game at the moment! If that match had been on FM14, Cardiff would have won 2-0, providing they had 2 shots on target that is!

Personally I'm sick of seeing this bit of commentary when your striker is 4 yards from goal with only their keeper to beat, it sort of goes........."there's only one outcome here......" The outcome being that the keeper makes a miraculous save, rather than the striker tapping it into the net!
 
Everton winning the league 1st season losing 1 match....well it's realistic, because if you watch football it happens quite often.....Everton last win the league 26 years ago so based on FM logic this is exactly what happens in real life most seasons.
 
shedding a tear for a dead friend..

If you ask me the whole game has gone to pot..cant get an editor to make up my own scenarios, if i want an in game editor i have to pay through the nose for it, where it used to all be free, too much reading now...the endless reading, sigh! i feel like i am plowing my way through the full and un-expedited version of War and Peace, rather than playing a computer game. I spend hours making up tactics and i have yet to see any of my players actually carry out any of them. I had one game, playing a far inferior team in a cup game, where my team had 47 shots at goal and on target, hitting the post/crossbar 17 times..and drawing 0:0...really..At times, as is reported on here, it doesn't matter what you say to your players, nothing changes their mind or pacifies them and its like listening to the wife..the very reason i play computer games is to get away from all that..they should of included an "f--you" box, i have found myself selling them, no matter how good they might be, just to stop the endless nagging!...My only wish would be, "if only it was that easy with the wife"..i could write my own version of War and Peace going on at how bad, difficult to enjoy, money-grabbing and hard-work this game has got, which is a shame, because i am an old git and have been playing this since the days of old, when it first came out, when i used to spend not hours, or even days, but weeks immersed in my bedroom (before the days of the nagging wife, when i only had mummy to contend with) enjoying the best computer game on the planet, on my Amiga 500....such a crying shame it has come to.."this"..i shall not be buying FM 2015 ..good bye old friend, its been a pleasure playing you, but with all your "pay for this, pay for that" you have got too **** expensive and the fun no longer exists...
 
The update to the full game has full on ruined my Feyenoord save that I was genuinely enjoying. Now I'm in a position whether I can be arsed going back to it even when these bugs are patched because I've left the team in a bit of mess. The image of my keeper getting a 3.6 rating and the oppositions getting a 9.2 rating earlier in this thread was pretty much a catalyst to worse things.
 
The things is, by each update my saves have got progressively worse. I was Leamington in the BlueSqSouth & really enjoyed my relegation battle which I managed to survive. The following season I finished 7th. Now a few updates onwards coinciding with a change of team of FC United I can't seem to get any consistency going & end up getting hammered.

The "proofs in the pudding" as they say & a return to my Leamington save (post updates) to play a match to see how Id get on, seen my dependable fullbacks averaging 6.90 etc to both of them playing 5.50 at half time. This is definitely worse than then FM13 BETA debacle where admittedly I stuck at it & after a month or so the game returned as did my enjoyment. Unfortunately at the moment I have no interest in playing FM14 whatsoever. Not for a day & a half now.

I have asked for help on the forums, been extremely patient with my side each season, I even looked at 2 help threads where I've read through every player role meanings & WWFAN sigames thread explains mentalitys, use of rigid, fluid etc but I get the same dross served up - hammered by Blyth Spartans. Nothing works for me & if anybody could even get my team to midtable or start a season signing players for my team then well you are a genius.
 
How the **** does a player of Higuains, Hamsiks or Mertens ability take a 23 yard shot with plenty of space and miss by a SOO MUCH (if you have played you know how much i mean)
 
Free kick comes in and my defender (Eboue) heads the ball straight into the back of his own net. Logic.
 
Having a transfer budget of ?33m, spending ?22m, leaving circa ?9m in the bank - once agent fees etc deducted - before a couple of days & a player sale later, going down to circa ?2m! Why?!
 
Raped by injuries every game in order to get me to pay for a rte no doubt or one of the other cheats available for a fee, ******* scum bag Sigames, really taking their customers for granted. Two words for Sigames and FM2015, Pirate Bay.
