Squad Update? (Nov 15th)

[SpHSpH]

I just got the FIFA10 game today. I have been reading a lot about the problems with teams have all-70's for their custom tactics.

I did a quick look-through of the non-EPL English teams. I saw LOTS of 70s.

Then I went to "update squads". It downloaded something.

Now I see a mix in the custom tactics ... no more all-70's.

So - did a squad update come out without me knowing? Is this a fix?

Cool.

I just checked myself, and it looks like the Squad Update is here.

Also noticed that when in the pre-match screen, the teams are now showing the different tactics whereas even with the custom tactics, those all didn't change.

Good find! I was expecting more fanfare and hoop-la about this. I dabbled with some custom tactics, mostly to fix the lower English leagues, but I think I'll just go with these now.

Gentlemen, start your Manager Modes!

I just fired it up, no squad update for myself. I did get an update a few days ago though so I'm wondering if it's the same.

Are we in consensus that these adjustments are adequate?

I do not need to make the ten generic CTTs and distribute them?

(See the post "Is Now The Right Time To Start A MM")

Be careful how you save the file. I have two squad files now - one is the default and one is the Nov15th update. Just in case. My XBOX is not usually hooked up to the internet (I have to move it into the other room) - so I do not have "continuous" online connection.

Do I need to establish another squad file if I adjust the team stadiums? (IMPORTANT)

Just checked this, and I did not have the newest squad file. I went into the lower English leagues, and there are no more 70's. Lots of 50's, but that's just dandy.

Hooray! English Manager Mode, here I come!

I plan on having two squad files, one for future updates and the other just for stadium names.

I checked the custom tactics for Morecambe and then reset the squads. After the update, they were changed from all 70's to something different.

What's weird is that none of the forums/blogs I usually check (FIFASoccerBlog, Sweetpatch, EA Forums, etc.) don't make any mention of this, especially in light of the fact that it was one of the more urgent issues raised by the community regarding MM post-patch. Has anyone seen/read anything yet?
