Probably not...I assume this is way to keep teams CTT's?

Yes, CTT's are stored in the user profile but the assignment to different teams is stored in the squads file. You need to select current customized when starting a career for the CTT assignments and any other squad changes to take effect during a career.

when you are ready for Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Serie A ?

Thanks a lot for your settings !

On a side note, is there any chance you could post a full list of which teams you're allocating to each one of those generic sets in your game? I know it'll take a while but I'm sure a lot people would appreciate it if, like me, they're clueless about the real-life playing styles of lower league FA teams. Here's that Man City set. Aggressive in attack and defense, with an emphasis on getting the ball forward quickly and with plenty of crosses fed into the box. Man City Build Up Speed - 65 Pass Distance - 55 Positioning - Organized Chance Pass Risk - 75 Crossing - 75 Shooting - 75 Positioning - Free Form Defense Pressure - 50 Aggression - 100 Team Width - 50 Defensive Line - Cover

What formation(s) do you typically use?

Just a heads up, I want to attempt to revive this a bit. I think with the combination of sliders and tactics the game can still be nice against the AI.

I think we might have to go with just a large set of "generic" tactics. Just as many different kinds as possible and assign them to teams.

My hopes are rather low that this can make me get back into FIFA, but I want to give it a shot. Especially after finding this site:

http://www.whoscored.com/

It's a pretty incredible resource.

How would we incorporate these stats from this website into Tactics?

Basically, it's just a great resource to see how teams play. My goal is to make many generic sets of CTTs and then apply them to teams, which that site will come in handy for. See teams possession, shooting average, etc. Also, for the bigger leagues, there are characteristics for each team.

I started doing some testing last night and I was fairly happy with the results. Unless a team only plays counter-attacking football, the build up speed needs to be low for realistic attacks from the AI. Even setting buildup to slow and passing to long, you still get realistic long ball tactics, but the AI will still slow down and build.

Also, as much as I hate to say it, each team may need a custom formation. Once again, it would just be generic ones assigned to different teams. This is because when you look at the default formations the AI uses, they're rubbish. All midfielders are set to "normal" for attacking, which is why most AI attacks are two strikers against 4-6 defenders. If we make basic formations 442, 4231, 4411, 44312 and so on, we can give them better settings such as defenders not attacking and midfielders set to 'high' attacking so the AI actually builds attacks.

I could be crazy, but I really feel with tweaking, this game can be pretty damn realistic. It'll take a bit of time, but honestly not a ton.

Anyone know off the top of their head how many custom formations we can have in the game?
