Hi. FM Noob here.

Was just wondering...

Does the game engine calculate results purely on the stats - or are results predetermined in any way? For example, if Man U, Chelsea, etc are playing a relegation favorite, does the engine say "right, whatever the stats, there's a 90% chance Man U are going to win this". Or does it really play the game out purely using the player data and tactics? Obviously I don't think it's all predetermined (would be a rubbish game!), but I guess I want to know how much is in your hands and how much is "staged".

I ask because, in my short time playing the game, I'm getting frustrated by how my season is playing out. I feel like I could have the best 11 players in the world and I would still be struggling because the game has me labeled as a relegation team

I can handle just being totally rubbish - that's good because it's something to work at! But if the game has already determined my fate (to a large degree) then I'd rather go do something else

Thanks!

if you are meaning the odds and such, they are calculated after the clubs reputation.

and if u look in the editor that comes with the game, you will find that there are stats for team. like the players have attacking and such. teams have a few of them as well.

bigger teams will be better overall, and the smaller teams will be worse overall.

and even though the big team will have a bunch of shite players it will still be able to do well, but that will change in the course of the game slowly. and if ur playing with a small team and have a great great set of players but still dont do that well,, that will change as well and your 'team stats' will become better as you play.
