Exposure to get minutes under his belt. Or you totally leave him out of first team until the age of 18 ?

put him in first team , but make him available for reserves. then if u want to play him , remove his reserves availability 1 week in advance... lol

On 17.2.1 still get the memory leak issue :mad:

I think they couldn't fix that. Else an update would be out since it's not a small bug. It's probably part of a major code which perhaps still puzzles them? I didn't go find out more on Sigames forum for this

Tried out this new Fireman 41212 narrow tactic on fmbase. Surprisingly very good tactic that scores. If it continues to perform at this rate. Could be the tactic that may break the ME for 14.2.1

May I know what mode you play on? eg full 1080 or windowed 1080.
And what skin are you using?

I saw someone advised that the freezing/crashing is due to "xmls in conflict responsible for that bug".

It could be the skin's xml. You try to change to a different skin see if it continues having the low memory freeze.
cuz I using this skin also but just change it two days ago and didn't really see the bug happen yet cuz only 2 games since I changed skin.

But I am using 1920x1080 windowed mode. So would "some panels not working" as indicated below?

Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).

Sharing this new found Korean tactic here.

This was from fmbase, tester used the 523

1097864d1484145437-tactics-differant-forums-%7Baround-world%7D-untitled-2.png


This is my first two games after plugging in the tactic.
I have the 424 on my first slot, 4123 on second slot and 523 on third slot.
424 against Everton away. Won 7-3
424 against West Ham home. Won 5-0
424 against Man City home. Won 3-0
Firmino scored Hat Trick in first two games and Herderson also scored on first two games. Firmino also scored one against City.
I tell you it wasn't easy to get Firmino to score this many on other tactics so I think it should be a fun journey for him now.

Now let's have a look at these three tactics which you can use in each of the three slots. Generally, 442 is better against 4123, 4231 better than 442 and 4123 better than 4231. Also, if the opponent plays with two strikers, you should use 3 at the back. If the opponent uses defensive midfielder you should play CMs and so on...I think that's my understanding on his way of explaining this ( 4123 < 442 < 4231 < 4123, TwoTop < ThreeBack, Defensive Midfielder < Central Midfielder < Offensive midfielder < Defensive Midfielder...)
4-2-4 Jinagab IWB
4-1-2-3 Jinagab IWB
5-2-3 Jinagab IWB

The Tactics download links can be found on each of these links at the bottom.

There's original and another version which has 3 changes (short to mix passing, wider width and one notch higher defensive line up)

I have yet to test both with enough matches but I think both should work well?

Let me know how it goes for you guys?

It worked pretty well for me for 5-7 games and after that it seemed that the AI got a hold of it and I am no longer churning out proper results.

I am now using Knap's range of tactics. It seemed that his WarPigs, Crossroads and a few others are working very well for a lot of users in SI tactics forums and also FMbase forums.
I tried a few of his, inclusing warpigs, crossroads, it's pretty good.
I am gonna try his Whiteroom, starless and leveebreaks...

I don't know about you guys but it seem that the AI is able to break your tactic sooner than usual in fm2017.
