Many of you might be thinking though – what skills do I need? Where should I specialise? What can I do with the skills I get? There are many routes to go down, but as co-author of Tactical Theorems and Frameworks, perhaps I ought to give my view on the tactics skills. Of course, you may choose to ignore tactics altogether. But if like me you’re a bit of a geek when it comes to fiddling with sliders, here’s a quick start guide to fast tracking yourself to TT&F glory in Football Manager Live. Each of these skills is listed in order of priority. You certainly don’t have to go for them in this order, but I think from my own experience of creating tactics in FM09 this is the route you will need to go down in order to get the most important aspects of TT&F together. Each skill is listed with a minimum requirement to make the basic TT&F Default tactics which are available for download for Football Manager 2009. Then I give a “recommended” level at which I think you should be aiming short to mid-term in order to give yourself tactical flexibility. If you want more than the recommended, it may be best to achieve the recommended level and then go after another skill – you can then return to upgrade the extra skills at a later time. And finally I’ve outlined a maximum range which I think is the most you will ever realistically need. Going for more may actually be a waste of valuable time which you could be using elsewhere fmlive:site:1972 http://footballmanagerportal.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=1016 http://footballmanagerportal.co.uk/fmlivedirectory/site/1971 9 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 23:00:00 UTC Here you can find a very interesting look at FM Live from its creator and Football Manager found, Oliver Collyer.

Whether it be a top-flight side challenging for European glory or a lower division team struggling to keep competitive, the primary opponent has been the computer itself. FML turns this long standing convention on its head by eliminating virtually all semblance of AI-driven actions - almost every variable in your experience comes from a conscious human mind. Transfer interactions, contract negotiations, match tactics and even the structure of your gameworld & federation is directly in control of the involved participants. This type of dynamic is across the board for all MMOs and the primary concept to take into account when diving into the game. fmlive:site:1922 http://footballmanagerportal.co.uk/fmlivedirectory/site/1889 7 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 23:00:00 UTC MMORPGs are all the rage nowadays, what with World of Warcraft, Everquest and erm, Digimon, so it was little wonder that Football Manager, a game that had online capabilities already, was going to be spun off into it’s very own multiplayer planet. But is it a good idea? I will look at the pros and cons of what undoubtedly is a massive marketing opportunity. fmlive:site:1889 http://footballmanagerportal.co.uk/fmlivedirectory/site/1844 5 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 00:00:00 UTC Manager Crisis will attempt to give insight into the features that are on offer currently within FM:Live.
