Yeah, you'd think so, but no. It's pre-set. When your BAL game is loaded go to the transfers, search by group, then find your team, then your player, on the last screen it'll show your player development screen with a bit fat line from age 17 to 30+ to show exactly your progress; this will...

It's not easy, as I'm finding. It's about consistency, even down to the ratings for a specific match. Goals aren't everything, it's about passes and completed passes etc too. I can't say how to win either 'football of the year' awards as I haven't yet. I'm hopeful this year after 51 goals and...

Head into the exhibition mode and try it out, pick a mid range team vs a top team stick it on regular difficulty and see what happens. I tried a formation last night, it appears as 2-4-3-1 on screen basically using the '4' with 2 DMFs' and 2 WBs' it sounds strange but unless they attack via...

I could name a lot of minor improvements. Mostly gameplay things: - Players heading the ball usually end up on the floor so more of that. - Specific button presses (combos) for headers, volleys. - Defenders DON'T close down as much irl as they do in game, especially when in the box. - Slower...

I'd say buy too, as far as football games go it's one of the better ones. I have to admit certain things about the gameplay annoy me, and could be improved, but most of them are superficial. If you're getting it solely for online play I'd perhaps think twice, but with a couple of mates and some...

Same as above, a few others use ball cam, which I tried and wasn't happy with, it's harder to stay onside when it's quite critical to see things like that.

He'll be back, perhaps, maybe he's found a woe-man. :( I've added too much to re-update mine. I'm just sticking around to see if he needs any help when he returns.

Playing two currently: Know Hope FC and Battalionia

Agbonlahor, Owen, Defoe, Vidic at Torino. :D I don't play for Torino :(

I've been doing some testing on this with a mate. We'd start an exhibition game on amateur and just pass the ball around the defenders with some players (trying our best not to make mistakes) and then with others purposefully playing shite balls, losing it and never intercepting. As was to be...

I found that after my first season with a rating of 6.25 only clubs with a similar rating came offering contracts. Then in my second season I got a 6.21 (which was poor) and slightly better teams came, along (strangely) with a couple from other leagues, then in season 3 with a rating of 6.60 I...

While 1 touch passing is a factor in the game try using the R2 button to trap the ball occasionally, wait for a player to move into space then pass, if you're closed down just turn around and the player closing down hits your back. Also learn to switch the play from side to side, you'll find you...

ohhhhhh :shocking:

Good question, never thought about this. It's a shame if you can't, I'd rename my flatmates player Sack'o'shit and then add the commentary for added effect. :(

Oh yeah, the forwards stay forwards, no one to pass to otherwise, lol, but the rest of the team defend like a wall is what I meant, anyway, we're not helping him. Before a match in the set tactics I use 'team stategy' to set a solid back line who rarely try the offside trap and then in...
