So you select a preset 4-4-2 for example, have you changed any of the sliders? or set the individual players to the default CB slider selection for the CB for example?

Just very minor things like setting full back forward rins to mixed and having them cross from deep.

Both my cm set to mixed forward runs.

Most players hae through balls set to often & long shots to rarley.

Do minor things lead to football or table tennis?

boostboy97 · 12-10-2007, 02:30 PM

A bit of both really.

I'll try a few small changes on the standard tactics then and I will report what sport I am watching in the pitch.

The main part of the game for me is creating my own tactic and watching the players play how I want them to.

How do you convince them to shoot past the goalkeeper and into the goal?

retired_kayakcyndi · 12-10-2007, 02:47 PM

I found this out too. Used to play a custom made 4-1-3-2 tactic which worked well in FM07 and in pre-patch, but I get 0-0 draws all the time with it.

Upon a new game, choose the 4-1-3-2 default and forgot to change the other settings, and I'm doing great. I am Arsenal though so not sure if this works in LLM.

I'm waiting for the next patch to give me a hand.

I do find my second striker scores plenty of rebounds off the keeper after my first striker hits the ball straight at the keeper when he's clean through.

I usually play 4-4-2 or 4-4-2 diamond, straight from the tactics list. I don't change a single thing. Guess what. The games are great to watch! The number of shots and shots on target is reasonable, my chances are reasonable, I score a reasonable amount of those chances etc. By employing tactics that AI employed during the SI experiments I managed to watch games of footballs that are closer to reality.

So, if you are a football fan who would like to watch a proper game this is what you can do.

Don't want to burst your bubble but i only use 'default' tactics with very minor changes.
15, 20 (sometimes 30) shots on goal on average but (due to superhuman keepers) only 1-2 goals per game.
