Subject: »Do you like the new ME?
I'll have a look at my game today and try to judge again. I was really disapointed with the ME when I was dumped out of the CC (lost 1-0 with 11 shots ahainst his 4). This wasn't really due to the unexpected result, but more that it was really dull to watch.
Since then I have struggled to watch games, its a real drag and far less exciting than the previous ME.
Still, it might hve been improved after the extra tweaks, so we will see.

+1 boring.....
too difficult to score, or too random :/
my last match :
possession :60
Play in the half : 59
rating : 49 (vs 39 and bot team)
2 scorers, 1 winger, and midfildier with ball possesion win all the duel ...
What can i do more.... 2 divin scorer ?
Same in U21NT, youth team, and cup... I try to analyse, switch to more offensive. I don't see any tactic solution FIX.

I think the new ME is too biased to the number of striker
Simple
More strikers more chances to won. Even if your team is clearly inferior. A 433 in a inferior team could score 3 goals easily.
I like that a 5-3-1-1 (superb winger) and unearthly striker is no a gaming tactic, but with good-passing midfielders and defences not to poweful, strikers got a lot of balls and the "rebounds" of their shoots.
You can see this fact checking matches (Example of my league, UDLaJota-Q3 Revolutions) on european (Spain-France) and things like that
A 433 is better than a 442 and these two far better than a 451 for example. Very difficult to win or even no to loose (even clearly superior) with a 4-5-1

Today it was good I think :)

The new ME is absolutely brilliant....I really enjoyed watching my 0:0 with a combined 18:1 shots. ^^
Scoring seems to be completely random nowadays. Wingers don't help since they're no good at crosses anymore and headers have become harmless. If you play against a deep-lying defense your strikers will prefer passing around instead of shooting when they're wide open. 1:1 situations after counter attacks seem promising but you don't get any of them if your team is too dominant to ever lose possession of the ball.
So what's the new game plan, just try to collect as many shots as possible and hope one of them randomly makes it past the opponent's goalkeeper?

Improved my ass... It is so sad to see legendary players like Yarburg, Humble and others on my team suddenly acting like simpletons. The stats of my match today show an equal amount of chances, but it shouldn't be so. I meet a team that I always outplayed before (like 7-8 times more chances than him and of course a comfortable win), that always plays with the same tactic, and hence I have used time on optimizing my tactic to fit his... but now this effort is to no avail... too many brainless/strange/random/etc. actions by players that you could rely on in the old ME to play sensible most of the time. Now it seems their skills have been penalized to make more "equal & realistic" matches. (Yarburg in super-divine form - besides being completely useless on the wing, also gets tackled several times from behind by inferior midfielders - just the top of the iceberg for his anti-perfomance currently). Btw my overly expensive strikers cannot score a single goal on completely open chances while his lower budget strikers - especially the one scoring the second goal - have no problem in converting chances. "Equalization" FTW.
After last years win in CC, I decided to take it easy, downproritize the results, and focus mostly on training as I have reached my goals in Sokker and currently am quite occupied IRL. I did decide though to keep the oldies without buying replacements as I figured that they might be able to keep my team in top 4, maybe until I once again will have time/interest in results. But also because I still enjoy (read: enjoyed) watching in 2D my legendary stars that have brought me so much joy and results before. Thanks to the new ME, I no longer have doubts. I will sell my oldies, go for training 100% and not spend time on wathing matches and engineer devious tactics - the latter being pointless anyway apparently. In fact I'm a little gratefull for this new ME, because I simply couldn't take the decision myself to sell my legendary oldies. Sokker has now done it for me and will no longer be a distraction for me in the weekends. I bet my children & wife will be grateful too ;)

Now some mediocre manager will tell you that your tactic was bad...
You guest it right in 1 try, except for the mediocre part ... ;) The 'problem' is that many tactics won't work anymore with this new ME, also have read this on the Dutch forum. And that's great, a new challange to get used to this ME and find the best tactics that will work again.
Hopefully not to many new things will be implemented again and again or it will take a long time to get used to something that is constantly changing :P But the news is that most is done by now, but if there are more bugs found: Forum Bugs / Ideas (en)

Was it randomly picked that why should we be fucked up totally and say it`s for good. Not is not for good it`s bad planning bad implementation it`s becoming a game for kids.

Hopefully this BMI thing will be changed soon so it will work.
The right and fair thing was all existing players to start with equal BMI only the new one to be born differently.
Its today's game I watched with two friends, as we allways do.
All three are quite enthusiastic about this today's ME that's much, much better than last week. You need to fix some things but I think it is getting better. I do not know how else does, but looking at my game today I was quite pleased.

Pleased from what that defenders with highest tactical discipline do not stick to the instructions and that there are grouping by pairs . And the whole game was just kicking the ball back and fourth. the outer midfielder with 15passing can`t do descent cross even from corner. And striker with 14 scoring on empty net shoots 20m of the target :( and 5 defenders grouped aground 1 striker can`t stop him.
Yes it was better i do not have injuries and cards thanks random to that.

you kill me with youre "challange" thing...tel me what a good tactic means for you???
in my opinion a good tactic produce many shoots ,but what can you do when you see strikers acting like idiots?what can you do when youre allarround mids fail with simple passes.not to mention about triple divine winger wich is acting now like a clown....ohh..and goals,they are so rare but when they come,randomly of course,they are so dull and ugly....remember "best goals topic"...ok,you wont see some1 post there soon...
