DON'T FORGET TO REPEAT ALL THESE STEPS FOR TESTING TEAM "A" AND TESTING TEAM "B"








SOME TEST RESULTS:

As I already said on my PC it takes about 35 minutes to test for 1 season.

There are Testing Team A and Testing Team B into the Testing League; Testing Team B is just a copy of Testing Team A; I added 2 identical teams into the Testing League order to test for more matches per one test so you should sum up their points and their goals difference after each test.

Here are test results of my Strikerless V13 tactic: you will notice that my Strikerless V13 tactic showed better result when it was tested in Underdog Save than when it was tested in Favorite Save even that in both saves the Testing Teams are identical and the only difference between them is their Reputation. I can say that all tactics behave that way, they show better result in Underdog Save than in Favorite Save and here’s why: in Underdog Save AI teams consider the Testing Teams as underdogs so they use Attacking approaches against them and in Favorite Save AI teams consider the Testing Team as favorites so they use Counter/Defensive approaches against them and as you can see it’s much harder to play when AI uses Counter/Defensive approaches against you.

It explains why many people complain that in the real game they had amazing results with a weak team in the previous season and the current season they are getting worse with the same team, it’s because after the success in the previous season the reputation of their teams has increased and more AI teams started to use Counter/Defensive approaches against their teams and the test result shows that it’s hared to play when AI uses Counter/Defensive approaches against you.

I've cheked it and found that Fitness Coach worked correctly

Here's a save(the end of the test), you can check it - DropMeFiles – free one-click file sharing service

Also, you can see that the game was saved only 4 times, when I loaded TFF's save it already had 2 saves so I saved only 2 times, at the begging of the test and at the end

I want to look at your save, upload it please

its ok mate no need for save ill post it after favorite test finish and will post knap test too. this is awesome work by TFF i suggest adding monaco and dortmond to the test instead of inter or milan or porto maybe.

by the way i see tactic name changed to 4-2-3-1 dm wide in your save does assist manager change tactics or what is it? is that affect our testing?

It's just a interface bug and it's been in FM for long time

Sometimes, a tactic's name might disappear but the only name changes and the tactic stays the same

good then i posted results and will post more soon
 
Isn't it better to use Instant Result rather than going on holidays? Cause with IR, the assman doesn't change the tactic, while he does it sometimes when the manager is on holiday.

Guys from SI changed the way Instant Result and On Holiday Mode work for FM17

In the previous FM versions there was an issue when the assistant manager might tweak your tactic when you use Instant Result or On Holiday Mode, that issue was reported and looked at.

Now in FM17 the assistant doesn't change your tactic when you use Instant Result or On Holiday Mode and now there's no difference between Instant Result and On Holiday Mode.

On Holiday Mode is much faster than Instant Result and there's no difference between them in FM17 so it's better to use On Holiday Mode for testing.
