    Finally, the freeckick progression has been fixed! in all your scree shots, almost every player has amazing free kicks in future

    3 things:
    1. less sliding tackles, which is great because everyone seems to do that every time and get sent off
    2. less long shots. many ‘why did you do that, you dumbass!!’ moments
    3. italian serie d? they already have divided the regional divisions for italy! there are the lazio, the umbria, the lombardia divisions and so on. they could activate even more divisions for them. nonetheless, epic!

    In the past I could have 10 — 15 shots and score one goal. The AI will have 2 — 5 shots and score 3. Has this been fixed as it is a little annoying when you are in control of a match and lose 3 — 1. I can understand this happening in the odd game but not in most games. I manage in the lower leagues — level 10

      The list of fixed things is in the post. I suppose most of your shots were from distance?

        Most of my shots are in the box which is why I can’t understand why I have so many and the AI have so few. I have also been in games where I have been 3 — 0 up at halftime and come out in the second half and lost 5 or 6 — 3. The AI seem to always score in the 47th Min.
        I even change my tactics at half time to see if this helps. But I still get the same result.

        Apart from that I love the game.

      You don’t need to download anything, the game will be updated through Steam (that information is available right at the beginning of the post).

        Hi, If you are using Steam then you need to log out of the game and steam. When you log back in to Steam it will download the patch. Allow a few mins for this to happen. Once it has finished downloading then run the game and it will show that you are running 14.1.4

    After this last patch release my club logos don t work. The kits and faces are ok. Any idea ?

    • Johnny Karp

      29 ноября, 2013 at 18:02

      Installing the patch shouldn’t have any effect on logos, kits, faces. So my guess is that you haven’t installed the logos properly in the first place, please read the relevant instructions and install them again.

        No to discredit you Johnny but I just noticed that with the new patch my the kits of my Barry Town United has changed from yellow to blue.

        • nielsneutron

          3 декабря, 2013 at 19:51

          A small change to my comment. It is only the club logo that changed and the club page says I am wearing blue but I am still in my Barry Yellow.

            If you think it’s a bug you should report it to SI, nothing I can do about it.

    The new patch has killed the game for me. I was unbeaten after 14 games with forest in second season after spending first tweaking tactics, the new patch uploads and have won 1 of my next 5. it seems like the opposition turn into a bayern barce hybrid after half time and destroy me in every game. has ruined it for me. I dont have a problem with losing the odd game if i have been dominating. or the AI doing me tactically but have found this update has been ridiculous.

    Also meant to ask how can i select a player to individually mark another on fm14? cant find how to do it anywhere!

    • Johnny Karp

      29 ноября, 2013 at 20:13

      You can’t.

      • Reza

        I found how you can select individual marking. It’s in the individual player instructions. In game you go into tactics — players — edit — and it’s the bottom right instruction. Found by accident.

    where is the link as i don’t use steam ?

    • Johnny Karp

      1 декабря, 2013 at 21:54

      There is no link, the patch can only be installed through Steam. If you don’t use Steam I guess you have a pirated copy, so this conversation will end here as far as I’m concerned.

    theres something wrong with the scouting or is it just me?

    • Johnny Karp

      4 декабря, 2013 at 17:58

      Haven’t noticed anything wrong with scouting in my game.

        in my game( I was using 1.4.3 version) (Timo werner, just an exemple could be any other player) passed from a 4 star potencial rating to 5 star and so on, almost every player in the game add more ability on reports after installyng the 14.4 patch

    near post bug finally fixed, conceded 3 of these in the champions league final in my 3rd season as liverpool to, wait for it… Manchester united. Also on a less horrendous note, Sakho finished 2nd season with 22 goals in all comps thanks to this bug with balanta with a modest 18 from Cb postions.
    Quick question. does this patch change player stats because suarez has the same finishing as torres, which from last season is quite tragic from not only a customer of the game’s point of view but for the developers as well…ps dont know if you noticed this but i’m a liverpool fan :D YNWA
