The player instructions screen makes your tactical choices clearer. Only now, the tools you have to arrest a tumble down the table are more clearly presented and easier to use.
This is football, after all, and there will still be inexplicable thrashings and dips in form. It doesn’t mean everything will work as planned, of course. Again in the service of making the choices you have to make more transparent.įootball Manager 2016 tries its best to diminish the grey area in your decisions, communicating cause and effect better than before. This has been an increasingly integral part of setting your team up in recent Football Managers, but players now have more definable specialities and weaknesses. It makes sense -you wouldn’t expect Leo Messi to perform the duties of a target man would you?- and increasingly plays into fluid formations and player’s responsibilities within them. There is reams of data here, not all of which I’m convinced is useful, but the modern day game’s obsession with statistics is well represented.įM16 also keeps its finger on the pulse of contemporary football with a keener focus on ‘roles’ which are just as important as on-pitch positions. And while the immediate focus seems to be on accessibility, the dedicated will find the addition of ProZone-branded analysis delves further into the nitty-gritty of where your team is at its most effective or losing possession most. Listing them all would take too much time, but taken as a whole make managing your club that much more immediate and involving even before you’ve chosen your first team.
Staff are more forthcoming with advice (though they’re not always right, of course), you can see how match sharp players are alongside their general fitness and there’s an option to have a suggested first XI as you cycle through formations.ĭetailed ProZone analysis lets you get into the nitty gritty of your team's performance.
Sports Interactive have achieved the enviable feat of providing even more info in a game already groaning with statistics, while somehow making it more accessible. There’s very little clicking around for hidden nuggets of info and it’s only when you want to take action (transfer offers, contract renewal, that kind of thing) that you need to start delving into menus. Click on a player and most of the information you would want is separated into smart tiles on a home page: abilities, best positions, fitness, a brief scout report. It was a smart direction to take and FM16, while perhaps short on headline features, is a splendid refinement.Įverything is cleaner and simpler to parse. Last year’s game saw something of a presentational overhaul, bringing key information forward to help your decisions, making certain stats less opaque and providing advice on player’s suitability in certain roles. Managing a team you don’t know much about (sorry Eastleigh fans, I do now!) is one of the game’s pleasures and Football Manager 2016 (FM16) makes soaking in a new club’s information a great deal easier.
