i moved celtic and rangers into the bsp. celtic have a balance of £43m yet when i try to scout a player in south america it says "the club cannot afford to scout players in this region". i know air travel is expensive these days, but its not £45m return.
seems to me the games basing that on the league and not the clubs finances.
 
shhhhhhhhhhhh they dont like it on here when you criticise their beloved game...no matter how ***** this one has turned out to be. personally, i hate it after about 4 hours of playing and have binned it and going back to fm12. the training was good, made sense, worked as youd expect. now theyv made it stupid. so this week well train on defending, and next week well train on tactics, and next month well do some whooting, stupid. players seem to have no idea where they are on the pitch, just run aimlessly like under 5s team. they leave the ball, or run away from it. worst of all is the shooting from distance even though you have all your players set to not shooting from distance. as for getting a patch to fix these, dont hold your breath, id just accept youve been ****** without any dinner and mugged for £20.

No we just want you to post in the right place. Rants go in the frustration thread,

As for the fixes. The next patch is actually already in testing. went into testing 3 days ago.

Hopefully this patch will address the long shot and no tackling problems! Not holding my breath though!

hating the game isnt a frustration. i started a new thread because i wanted to voice how bad it was, but ill do that in here now. and in that thread i was critcised for criticising the game so clearly some people dont like the game being criticised no matter how bad it is. "dont post to people who dont care" well you cared enough to respond didnt you awalker14.

Well it wouldnt be released it if didnt, since it originally started as a hotfix for the the long shots.

If its not constructive it goes in here, a rant on how much you hate the game isn't constructive. A post on how the game can improve is, that's why some get left open, because they are actually a balanced discussion.

People don't care about new threads because it's repeating the same story over and over-we're just sick of seeing the same thing. Which is why threads like that get closed and that's why there's a frustration thread.

Edit. Zoomed. gods sake Mike. :P
 
do you know what this patch will fix?

Yes. a huge amount, though I wouldnt call it a patch, since it wasnt just to fix things, but also generally improve the game

Yeh they'll work straight away with current save. I think it's only when they do the transfer window patch you have to start new.

Bit of luck this update is out tomorrow

Highly unlikely, more likely weekend unless anything breaks in testing.

Needs to be soon. Then again it depends on when 1333 went into testing, could have been before the updated list was published, and the reason it was published when it was is they have now come to a point where they have decided 1333 is the end of the fixes to be done. Probably right regarding weekend release but i hope its sooner

A few days ago IIRC, so its unlikely to be too soon, its easier to wait a few days, than release it early and find something is broken.

It doesn't say anything about overpowered crosses. IMO that's the biggest problem with the ME right now :S
 
It doesn't say anything about overpowered crosses. IMO that's the biggest problem with the ME right now :S

Thats because overpowered crosses are a knock on of other things. such as poor closing down and tracking which allowed the cross in to easily.

Some things will be fixed but they wont be mentioned (such as through balls ) because its not a case of "fix through balls", but fixing other issues that meant there were not enough through balls.
 
That's quite a list of fixes. Bit of a pie in the face of those who have constantly claimed that "it's not ME, it's your tactics".

I wonder what effect (if any) those will have on injuries. I'm still seeing an abnormal amount of long term injuries in every league. Hopefully that'll go down a bit, it was utter pain especially in lower leagues where you simply can't afford backups.

Most of them aren't actually fixes, but improvements. do people really expect them to stand still and just fix stuff and not improve the game? So not really pie in the face, after all, we're all playing the same ME and some are doing much better than others.
 
Ughhh latest frustration, playing an away game as MU 2-2 against Arsenal in the UCL semi finals, on the 93rd minute Valencia dribbles inside the box, unmarked, basically 80% chance that he'll score, then the ref blows the whistle and ends the game like a second before he shoots. Seriously, WTF?
