With a team that someone else build and moulded.

When he starts bringing in his own players I bet it goes wrong.

what you just said means that players mean more than tactics

you will then say "they already have tactics"

in fm, you can't use a preset tactic for every match, you'll lose. thanks for being on our side ackter, i knew somewhere you had it in you.

Is anyone else starting to feel as if the game is becoming overtly tactic based, it's probably in an effort to achieve maximum reality.

However it is a bit tedious and hugely frustrating, I hope SI tones it down for 09

Used same tatics in 06,07 and 08 now,and it still works. That is, its about what you expect off it. Diablo days are luckily gone,rip.

The problem is though is that tactics are getting too complex, you only have to look at the T&TF and see people pulling out there hair trying to understand all the different sliders and their inter-relationships, agnosing over the smallest changes.

Tactics and all the settings are not very intuitive and trying to troubleshoot when things go wrong, unless you're willing to spend hours analysing full games, is difficult.

This is just not correct, its more or less the same engine for three years now. And as i said,the same tatics pretty much work.
You can choose to analyze whatever you want, but you dont have to.And you certainly dont have to analyze something to get a result.

And if you really stuck, go visit the tactics forums maybe?.

I think the game has always been reliant on tactics, theres just no super tactics anymore.
All you have to do is be a bit astute and fit your formation around your current squad.
Good wingers = sliders set to "wide". Great central midfielders = play narrow. a bit of common sense and a bit of trial and error and don't be afraid to tinker against different calibre of teams.
