Ping: FM2005 players

SirFozzie · 01-22-2005, 12:32 AM

Ok.. someone actually asked me a question about FM 2005 I couldn't answer (shock).. some of you dynasty writers are posting a graph of your team's position throughout the season.. WHERE THE HELL DO YOU FIND THIS?

I've literally spent 25 minutes on this and cannot find it.

Go to your current competition (i.e. Premiership)'s league table... from there click on "6th" or "8th" (or whatever).

Enjoy!

*boggle*

That's completely.. Counter-intuitive.. who came up with THAT?????

Eaglesfan27 · 01-22-2005, 12:46 AM

I agree that it is an odd choice that is hard for many people to figure out. I only knew about it because FrogMan was nice enough to tell me.

Kosta · 01-22-2005, 02:01 AM

I only knew about it because I had to post the question on here once and someone kindly explained it to me... back in the 01/02 days (still the best fun game) there was a button for it. After that they hid it.

Puts hand up sheepishly before running off into the distance ... sorry.

(open to ideas for alternative interfaces)

I think it works pretty well. I found it on my own. You get used to it and all. It's nice to be able to click on and off the various other teams to get a narrow or broader picture of what has been going on.

I Would keel you now, Marc.. but I need you to make future games in the FM series.

Just move it out into the main league screen I would think

Ajaxab · 01-22-2005, 03:22 PM

SirFozzie, I suspect you don't really need this info anyways. Weren't you managing Chelsea last time I heard? Your results graph would only yield a line straight across at 1st right? :-) ...ahhh, it's the other teams whose results you want to see.

SirFozzie · 01-22-2005, 06:33 PM

Ajaxab: that's my fun game.. but in my dynasty reports game, I wouldn't need it anyway, Bristol sucks.

Desnudo · 01-22-2005, 07:41 PM

In the same vein, how do they figure those stats like Team Goals and Games Won or Lost?

McSweeny · 01-22-2005, 08:58 PM

those are just how many goals the team scored or how many games the team won/lost while that said player was on the field (not sure if they have to start or can be used as subs though)

Glengoyne · 01-24-2005, 02:08 AM

This is a very cool report. I've been playing this game for two years, and I'm still learning of new features.

I'm not blaming the interface, I'm just saying there is so much there.

The more I look at FM, the higher the bar gets for all of the also ran Text Sims.
