(1) This is untrue - It is NOT the quality of your top 14 rated players added together and divided by 14. If that were the case then my selected 11 and highest quality 3 substitutes = an average quality of (1168 [the 11 selected players] + 290 [total of my 3 highest quality substitutes] = 1458 divided by 14) = 104.14. It shows as 104.8 in my comparison screen. As an aside if I take my selected 11 players alone (as per the old way) then their average quality is 1168 divided by 11 = 106.18.
(2) Given the breakdown as shown above my team actually appears with DEFENCE 105.8 - MIDFIELD 106.4 - ATTACK 106.6.
I have added the defensive skills of my 10 selected players together with the 3 highest quality subs defensive skills (can't count GK as they have no skills showing other than "Physical") and it comes to 1424. Divide that by 13 and my average Defensive skills for my team and 3 subs is 109.53.
It is not possible to do this for Midfield as skills do not show against players for Midfield.
Following the same principal with the attacking skills of my 10 selected players and 3 highest quality subs attacking skills (again cannot count GK) and it comes to 1363. Divide by 13 and my average Attacking skills is 104.84.
These figures are very different to those showing in (2) above.
The only explanation I can think of is that for the purpose of this game the skills listed for each player in their left hand skills column relates to DEFENCE, the middle column relates to ATTACK and the right column (described as Physical) relates to MIDFIELD and that this is not made clear to the players of the game. If it were made clear how this new formula works then the players of the game (me included) would be able to work out how much we needed to strengthen our defence, attack or midfield depending on what we worked out.
Why oh Why can't TopX1 actually explain to us exactly what calculations they have used so we can accurately decide where we need to strengthen our teams in the transfer market !!
Hopeless - None of this makes sense !
Just read your next comment below about you've only done half a job ! I find that difficult to believe that you would do half a bodge job rather than wait until the whole package was ready to be rolled out. Shockingly bad !
