Regarding the Uruguay squad, can't tell you for sure since I'm using an option file. So the faces were most likely altered. I can say that Forlan is pretty much exact and Suarez is pretty close. Again, since I'm using an option file I couldn't say for sure.

As for Nacional, I don't follow them so I don't know. However, Club America's squad is not it's current squad. It's last year's squad that still has Ochoa at keeper and Pardo on there. Obviously they aren't on the team anymore.

You can check out your club though and see for yourself:

Thanks for answering. From what I can see, I don't know if it's because of your imported OF, but it's all messed up. Firstly, many players are in wrong positions, Garcia (CF) at LB, Porta (WF or CF) at DMF; some of them aren't on the team anymore (Coates, Garcia, Lembo, Pereyra, Mirabaje, Flores; Gallardo is our coach, rating are wrong, etc. I guess I'll have to edit it myself and maybe help someone who's making OFs.

OK. It seems like questions are OK here since there aren't too many ppl with the game, so I have 2

1. Does man mark work well? It hasn't always

2. Is the cpu adjusting formation/tactics when needed? If I'm up 3-2 with 6 minutes left does the cpu throw an extra attacker forward? Does it pull a defender?

Might be that importing my option file somehow screwed it up, but yes you can edit them.

1. Haven't tried that yet. I never really even used it in 11.

2. IMO, the tactic changes are very noticeable especially when it comes to bunkering or all out attack. I think we're ok there. Even the quick counter I noticed the effects. I was using that tactic in one of my games and my team would drop deep defending and once we gained possession you can really see your guys sprint forward.

I'm dying to know. 2. IMO, the tactic changes are very noticeable especially when it comes to bunkering or all out attack. I think we're ok there. Even the quick counter I noticed the effects. I was using that tactic in one of my games and my team would drop deep defending and once we gained possession you can really see your guys sprint forward. Yeah, I felt it would be like this. Last year's tactics were good. I specifically want to see the cpu drop a defender for a striker, drop a striker for a defender, as the circumstance dictates.

So envious you have the game

slthree, Tried the man marking. Not sure how well you would like it to work but I do see that my guys that I set up with a specific mark assignment make the effort to stay with their man. Reminds me of a cornerback in football playing a WR. However, they do break off at appropriate times or if their man they are marking is not really a threat in the play.

Check your PM

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to do that.

Do you remember what you set the marking to? Was it "normal" or "tight"?

No big deal if you don't.

No option for normal or tight. In the pre-match gameplan, it just says player menu then you select the man marking option and choose who to mark. As far as I can see, there is no normal or tight marking option.
