Maybe you're right but if you change tactics often, your players will feel insecure in their role. So you should work on a perfect tactic, and use it for the rest of your life, like I did.

you're half right,

tactical changes are required as has been heaily discussed in this forum....but entire formation changes seem rash and simply not realistic.

[timmyg8802]

I agree. It's unrealistic to have to change your whole formation after 12 or so games just because the game will shaft you if you don't.

Surely a well settled formation with total understanding should be more effective than changing your tactics all the time???

I think his point is that once your preferred tactic is set the AI prepares to face that formation and thus gives you a much harder game. Nothing to do with how comfortable your players are, just how prepared your opposition are.

I've seen the same thing, after 12-15 matches it becomes virtually impossible to keep a winning run going, this might be the answer.

Then the best thing is to have 2 superb tactict that you switch between... like one 442 and one 451...

[retired_mmele78]

Seems to me that you have a point, but slightly wrong.

I dont think that the game gets harder as the opponents learn your formation. I think it gets easier when you change it, and back to normal.

Think of it as you turn up one saturday afternoon playing a 3-5-2 short passing, when your opponent has spent all week preparing his team to face your normal 4-2-4 long ball.

Uuuuuuuuu...I'm so cool. I test FM. Dork.

It may be the pills...but that made me laugh...havent heard the term Dork since the 80's!

[retired_grace4557]

anybody here uses the default tactics with minimal tweaking?

i myself try to build tactics but if the threadstarter is right then i'll be building too many... and it's not exactly very fast to build one..
