They do NOT work hand in hand. It has been clearly stated by Marc Vaughan that individual mentality overrides global. Mentality is merely one entity. Think about it: why would one slider mean two separate things? You can see this when you change the global mentality. Each players' mentality changes unless his individual box is ticked.

Team mentality is how you tell the player to play and the individual one is a positional and agression tool, the manual states this. So while the other team and ind isntructions override each other, its clear that mentality does not override. This is visible to anyone who uses both.

You contradicted yourself anyways with this

If the team one overwrote, it would change the ticked players mentality regardless.

Also read the full paragraph about mentality, thats why it advises you have players on simliar mentalites across the board, so you don't leave gaps. If the team one overided the indv one, there would be no need to include any of this paragraph in the manual.

Nice sensible theories Asmo, I'm pretty much in your position regarding time to play the game and not wanting to go into great detail during a match and using Team Mentality as a way of minimising these changes.

Good read :thup:

This is an interesting aproach Asmodeus
like you I don't have much time to be tweaking tactics

So far I have only used the tactics of others but now I'll try your ideas out

I don't really see how I have contradicted myself. Nowhere did I say that team mentality overrides individual, and when you change the team mentality it absolutely does NOT change the mentality of those individuals who's boxes are ticked. It changes those who's boxes are NOT ticked. I have experimented with mentality and if you select each player individually as ultra defensive for example, and set the team mentality on all out attack, the all out attack selection is completely OBSOLETE since it has been overridden by the individual settings. Why would the sliders move for the individual settings if the team mentality is a separate entity. Think about it, it doesn't make sense. That would mean then that there are two type of closing down and two types of passing. What if my team passing is set to long ball and my individual settings are all at short passing? Obviously, the individual settings take priority. This should be enough to prove my point.

Read the manual the work hand in hand, the team mentality instructs the team how to play i.e defensive etc. The individual setting is a positional and agression tool. Mentality works different from passing etc so don't use them as examples. If you don't believe me read the manual like I say.

Anyways cba to argue with you, its all you seem to do lately with me, I dont know what issue you have, but sriously its annoying now. No matter what I am discussing you always come in and try and pick a fight no matter what thred I am in, its like your stalking me.

As i say, I wont be replyign to you anymore its a waste of my time. I don't expect everyone to agree with me, however I don't expect people to disagree with every single thing I write either.

Actually, you'll notice that it wasn't you who I replied to, it was Aston_Martin, so it looks as though you were the one that butted in and the one that is stalking me doesn't it?

On top of that, you mentioned that I contradicted myself when clearly I didn't. If I see something that I don't agree with I am going to say something whether it's you or the Queen of Sheeba, just as you will and do on many occasions. If you can't handle an alternative view other than your own I suggest investing in humility pills. I can send you some if you so wish. They taste awful but they definitely expand the mind.

Look, what ever issue you have with me it stops here right now okay? Anymore and I will ask another mod to intervene and review your posts which are directed at me. I have already asked several to look at posts in recent weeks where its bltantly obvious you are out to cause an argument and they where in agreeement. So it stops now k?

Back on topic

Asmo - How do you use the oppostion instructions? Do you set them up any specific way?
