Learning a new position

[nikolgiorgos]

Suppose you want to provoke a dev to come here and give some answers
No, they won't, they never gave straight answers.
They presented the new training system but never said "ok, now that you can train your players with individuals drills for specific abilities, you can take a player as "tabula rasa" and make a MC specialist in crossings, a DL superb in F-K like Roberto Carlos, a winger with high speed and dribbling performing like Roben.
It's a brand new system, looks cool and interesting but the only thing that seems to add in team's performing are those 4 additional bonus.

I just don't see the reason for Nordeus to give the players "cosmetic" abilities like you put it that does not matter at all and instead use hidden abilities for the game

I believe that the game's mechanics about the match calculation didn't change, so as the old version, in the new version too, there isn't a specific calculation that counts every single ability for every action every time. To be fair, the demands would be huge for doing that for every single game, for every single player of the team.
So it's a production of game players by RNG. The true skills of a player are different from the skills we can see.
for example, let's say we have 3 new MC. One of them has a higher crossing skill so we choose him for corners.
After some tests and observation, we realize that this player hasn't the talent for that and if we use another or maybe a DC (), we can have better results.

Some managers set their GK for the F-K with great success.
I still believe in higher quality (meaning an attacker with 55 q wins a defender with 51 q) and I 'm still wondering about the three main categories (attack, defense, M&P). I mean if has a meaning to give more attack points to ST and more defense points to a DC.
Give you another example about that, I have a defender, young one, fast trainer, 19 y.o. 6* from previous season and all the sp he earned in the season, went in defense and M&P (or a ST with all the earning points to attacking skills). Then this season I 'm buying a nordgen DC/ST or a player from scout list. And they perform better than my old players who had very high those relative skills.
I 'm using this example because nordgen and scouts as "newborn" players, have their skills almost equal in every category.

* Just to make one thing clear, I 'm not accusing the game, I love to play it, considering myself a hardcore player, I think it's great and the best for this kind (fb football manager game), I like to help others to play better but also to understand how it works and not have the illusion that they're playing something else.
