Milfner Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I change every so often. If I dry up a bit up top, it's always good to change it around. I switch between a 4-5-1 and a 4-2-2-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddywhack Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 so is this worth getting? is there a big difference from this and 2011? from what i have heard you have to play it off stream? why? i dont want stream last time it slowed my pc down I think it's worth getting, but then again, I'm a sucker and would probably always buy it. Have done every year for about 12 years. From memory, I think the change between this one and FM2011 is the least amount of change I've ever seen, although this years seems really easy. I'm second in January my first season with little effort. Sorry, I don't know about steam, don't understand it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsonp Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Anyone got any good tactics on this at all. I started off well but have slipped slowly down the league (sounds realistic :cry: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 i actually think its a pretty big change, i play with the traditional match screen which hasnt changed at all, but the new tab system has made everything quicker and easier there are some tiny changes which have pleased me, the addition of half chances to the stats bit for example does seem to be a bit irratic IMO in my 2nd season i beat chelsea and man city away before losing 0-3 at home to stoke, also playing as arsenal i constantly draw spurs in the cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Any explanation as to why every time I turn my laptop off, I have to connect to my internet through a wire and not wireless to allow me to play this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 No but why don't you play in offline mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I would imagine you have to put Steam into offline mode rather than trying to find an option in FM2012. I do say this having only played the demo btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Bent's been absolutely superb for me this season. 20 league appearances, 14 goals (top scorer). He's also got 8 assists (2nd in the league for that). Ireland's also been immense. 10 appearances, 3 goals and 6 assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsonp Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 where are you playing ireland? Centre mid or attacking mid? As he has been pretty average for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withinpurple Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Both Bent and N'Zogbia have been woeful for me this (first) season, I've even listed Bent. In about 15 games he has no goals or assists, gabby is far better in my formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Bought it yesterday for the PC. Having never played an FM game before I'll admit I'm struggling to get to grips with the controls so I might have to go through the tutorial tonight . Any tips for a noob ?

villaajax Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Buy Matias Fernandez! He never lets me down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Go to club policy and set your assistant manager to do all 4 options, iirc set training set friendlies, renew youth contracts and do press conferences, gets rid of some of the things that soon get boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laivasse Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Bought it yesterday for the PC. Having never played an FM game before I'll admit I'm struggling to get to grips with the controls so I might have to go through the tutorial tonight . Any tips for a noob ?Use coach reports and team reports to get an idea of your best eleven. Use the 'create a tactic' wizard to knock a formation and strategy together. Avoid playing people out of position - look for them to have a bright green circle on their icon in the formation screen, which denotes a natural position. 'Backroom Advice' can give you some recommendations for formations that suit your players, but if your own judgment tells you something different, use that. Then just hammer 'Continue' until match day rolls around. That's the core gameplay. Most of the rest can be picked up and mastered as you encounter it - scouting, transfers, dealing with press, motivating your guys, training, all that is important, but when all's said and done it's about having a solid tactic keyed in come matchday.
