I got balls deep into FM this last year


How hard is it to pick up on how to play FM?

I bought FM15 a few years ago and I was overwhelmed. I played with Koln or someone that used to be in the 2. Liga and I got my arse beat by our youth team.

As I never played FM before that, I was overwhelmed because I thought it was hard as shite to play. Anyone have any pointers? I'd like to hop back on the FM bandwagon.

yeah it's a beast of a game. Half the battle for beginners is just learning where everything is. I'd start with a team and a league you're very familiar with so you'll have some knowledge of the players and opponents straight away.

If I were you i'd focus on your team training, set your assistant manager to handle anything you're not sure about, and hold backroom meetings regularly. Make sure you have a "plan a" and a "plan b" formation your squad is relatively comfortable with.

When you first start you can limit how much you want control of.

I literally just focused on first team tactics and team rotation and left scouting, transfers, contracts, staff, U-23, U-18, training for all the teams and everything else to my assistant manager.

Throughout that year I added things and now in year 2037-38, I pretty much do everything related to the first team, scouting, transfers/contacts, etc...but there is a lot I still don't touch.

It took me a full season or two to fully grasp everything regarding stats/how to tell if a player is good, etc....since there aren't player overalls.

It really is a game where you may need to frick up your first job and get sacked to figure it out lol.
