The funny thing being that I haven't actually played in weeks. I've started FM quite often, tried a few tactics then closed it. Over and over again.
Now I wish those fucking Dutch would start finishing that db so I can start a save and fail college in peace.
>>75428539
if you mean claassen, i'm quite sure he finished his db a month ago
>>75428599
Nah, Claassen:
>Is a French speaking person;
>Only does dbs for countries that don't have one.
I'm talking about a lower league db for the Netherlands. The user started it, updated it quite a few times then went ded. Worse, I actually helped them by making a file so he can compare his broken holiday system with a more vanilla one. To which he did respond. Then he went ded yet again.
I don't really want to add all these fucking cup rules by hand, especially since you can't have two instances of the Editor up at the same time 2bh, but I might be inclined to do it.

there's some serious soul-searching going on in this city to that end, long time leafs-haters deciding that maybe they aren't so bad actually, and that toronto is pretty ok in general
not for me (yet)
>>75437485
Maybe. The only reason to draft Jake Virtanen over William Nylander would be to have some fun with everyone in the hockey world... because seriously, why the fuck would anyone draft Virtanen over Nylander. He can't even pronounce his last name correctly.
>>75437539
You can come over whenever you're ready. Can't blame you on holding off though.
>>75437574
they get the first draft by finishing last correct?
>>75436057
possession wins games. poop knew. praise poop
>>75437653
>they get the first draft by finishing last correct?
maybe. that's one of the reasons it's such a retarded """strategy"""
>>75437653
Not anymore. There's a lottery for the top three spots in each entry draft (dating back to 2016/last year) where every non-playoff team has a weighted chance at winning the first overall draft pick where the team finishing last has the highest chance (Colorado at 18%), and the team finishing 17th overall (NYI at 0.9%) has the lowest.
With Vegas joining the league next season, they have equal opportunities of winning the lottery as the third-last team from last season (Arizona). Whenever Team #32joins, they'll probably be awarded the same luxury.
>>75437845
>(dating back to 2016/last year)
2015, oops.
>>75437781
>>75437845
If you're gonna have a draft like that, why make it chance-based, assuming it's pretty important to get first draft? Is it to prevent purposely finishing last?
>>75438009
>Is it to prevent purposely finishing last?
Pretty much, yeah. The whole notion of "tanking" has become absurd over the last few seasons to the point where the term has essentially replaced "rebuilding". The players don't play to lose and the coaches don't coach to lose either since since they're both worried about having jobs for the beginning of the upcoming season (especially if their contracts are expiring; lower quality play = smaller contract).
General Managers have always "tanked" and built teams to lose; especially post-trade deadline when they would sell off their best players for either picks or prospects) but there have only been two or three debatable instances in the history of the league when clear choices for first overall were available. The first of which happened in 83/84 when the Penguins ended up finish last, three points behind New Jersey, to draft Mario Lemieux. The next was 90/91 when Quebec was awful as hell and sold off everyone at the deadline and finished last by 11 points behind Toronto. Unfortunately, Lindros didn't want to play in Quebec City, so they traded him to Philadelphia for four players and Peter Forsberg... the trade worked out for them eventually (1996, 2001 wins). The third and final was in 14/15 when Buffalo traded away every goalie who seemed to play well and whose fans actually cheered in the stands for losses en route to finishing last by 2 points behind Arizona.
Ironically, in the process of the draft (teams issued winning combinations with numbered balls, etc), Buffalo didn't even have the best odds at winning McDavid by the time the last ball was drawn (Toronto did). Likewise, the Leafs didn't have the best odds at winning Matthews last year either (Edmonton did). Edmonton ended up winning the 2015 lottery, and the Leafs won last year's.
>>75438819
huh, learn something new every day
I love this ref. I hope he's paid well
>>75438917
Frankly, at least in my opinion, the whole introduction of the top three spots being available through a lottery was a gross overreaction to a non-problem by the league (not out of character, unfortunately). There are better options such as not changing anything, or awarding the first pick to the team who records the most points after they've been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs (it favours the worst teams since they're eliminated first and have the longest period to win points, but also evens out the whole thing because of how bad they are, since it's less likely they'll win games).
That being said, I don't really have a problem with the triple-lottery... I honestly can't wait until a team who finished just out of the playoffs wins it just to see the reaction from everywhere claiming how bullshit the format is.
>>75439182
10.0 rating as well
>>75439182

definitely good for keeping possession, good for attacking if you can afford to press high up
against a better team, or away from home, you probably want a different tactic with a DM
also bear in mind that unless you have extremely good players, you're probably going to struggle for width, so you might want more attack-minded fullback roles

Ramos is about to be suspended for a while, and not just because of that red card.
No chance of an equalizer then
>>75460283

>>75460321
He did the same gesture as Neymar had don to the ref
>>75460321

okay then, enjoy mining bitcoins for a literal botnet for no reason (yes, utorrent literally did this). you probably dont know yourself why you're using it over 2.2.1 or qbittorrent.
also, unlike you I'm not poor and can afford a 4chan pass
>>75465253
>I love viruses
>>75465253
but you know they don't vet those ads so they can be intrusive right? And that its more demanding on your system?

wear and tear on your hardware + electricity bills

because it LITERALLY costs you money because your computer needs more energy (and therefore spends more energy), you dimwit, not to mention the fact that your hardware ages faster

(because I'm sure it barely affects the bill at all)

>Adama Traore is the best dribbler of the ball
hmmmm
>>75429400
his free kick taking is already rising, just turn him into john arne riise
>>75474867
Yes
It's supposed to make him act like a CB on the ball but it doesn't work the way it was intended. It only really works after a while of having possession; the halfback eventually does play in a line with CBs once the CBs push up to the middle line, but it also means that you defend in one single line and that two of your defenders are basically too wide to defend
Wait til FM20 for a fix desu
>>75476358
thanks krautchan, wat role and instruction do you suggest for Azpilicuetta so he can play like in Chelski IRL?
>>75474867
I always use it in my attacking tactics because when opposition starts a counter attacks my half back defends in front of the goal keeper instead of closing down in defensive midfield.
>>75476576
Doesn't he dribble into midfield? BPD?
selling my best players for 2x their value and only getting 25% of the transfer revenue
mixed feelings
>>75476956
BPD plays more risky long pass, they don't dribble or get forward much
>>75474867
haven't used one in ages, just tried it again
it sort of works. it's possible that having a CD(c) behind him confused his positioning a little
>>75477476
so you play one stopper and one cover CB?
>>75477778
that was with 3 CBs, defend/cover/defend
this was with stopper/cover. halfback didn't seem to do what it's supposed to as much, maybe because we had 61% possession and he got lured out of position
There is in fact only two teams.

Is this a meme?

How long does it take you all to sim through a whole season?
First season in CL. I was feeling quite optimistic, too
>>75480487
playing or holidaying?
playing it takes me ages compared to some people here but it varies depending on how much I need to do. for example first season you're bargain hunting like a madman and tweaking tactics constantly and searching for new staff and so on but by the time you're a dominant world force with tons of money at your disposal and a nice staff setup then you don't need to do much but replace people retiring.
I'd say early years it takes me about 1-2 weeks per season and later years 2-3 days per season.
If you mean holidaying then about 20 mins.
>>75480487
Depends wholly on the PC specs, but maybe 1-2 hours.

They probably just sign them. From my experience, the only dual-nationalities you get through intakes in Iceland are Serbs, which doesn't make sense because the highest population of non-Icelandic people in Iceland are the Polish. Serbia isn't even top 10.

borderline. for that kind of price I'd want a guy who could play the ball, or was really young and would improve a lot. but it's not a huge rip-off, if you really need a defender, go for it

I would since your in the premier league 12.5 USD really shouldnt be an issue. Would be a very solid rotation player. Has all the stats to be a solid player for your squad. Also always enjoy a defender that can play an extra position if there is a injury crisis.

Any of you lads know if you can play as RUOR Minsk in 15/16/17? I had a save with them in 12 and it was pretty cool, would like to try again.
I've had a look around already and couldnt really find them in any of the megapack dbs but dont know if someone else found something

It looks like they are in the game, but not in a playable league, at least in 17. You might be able to find a custom database that includes them though
Does know to what degree season ticket sales indicate what the maximum attendance you would get? My stadium sells out every game and I'm thinking of asking my board for a new stadium but I don't want to if it would only lead to a slight increase in attendance
keep the thread alive for the yuros
