Im not sure if anyone else would appreciate this, but I will be running trial and errors with various Tactic settings. Im playing a game with Chelsea and will be playing 3 games with 3 different numbers for the settings. My first game is a Neutral vs Liverpool, an Away vs Portsmouth and a Home vs Sheffield Utd. Obviously this is in no way a perfect test, just a guideline that can hopefully give us all some insight. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions.

First: Closing down on 0, 10, and 20 on team instructions.

What were your other settings? They must have been set up pretty well to get those results, and may have a bearing.

Default 4-4-2, I only changed closing down. I will try with other things such as defensive line, tackling (for cards, freekicks, etc.), and others.

KevinLFC

to be fair he is only chelsea, need to be tested more with the likes of Charlton and Everton.

Tafse

Far too inconclusive in my opinion. My bet is you can see such variations from not altering anything.

Millie

I really don't see the relevance of this. It's a test, not a claim to be a good tactic. In fact, using it with a big team is probably the best way to see what's happening. The results aren't important, just the effects.

Besides, Everton and Charlton are bloody good teams too. An "average" side would be decent Football League side, probably League One.

deadlydevices

Well let me know if you guys have any specific suggestions. I would do 5 or 10 games but I just don't have too much time for that. I was just hoping we could see some specific effects in certain settings, which may not be closing down.

pele10

just keep up the good work mate

Tafse

I wish I had any suggestions. A while back I replayed a game 10 times without changing anything. The results and performances were inconsistent, to say the least.
