Surprised you get 4-5 goals on 8 min halfs. I play 20 min halfs so as the CPU gets real-life stats (2-3 goals, 10-15 shots). But you're correct, results change depending on tactics and sliders. FYI, I edited the db and lowered all players' stamina by 40%, the CPU makes 3 subs each game now, it's perfect.
I have had games with results like 1-0, but always with a 6/8 shots on goal each half. I would prefer that the subs are made by me and not by the CPU. But for now this is not possible, because I should anticipate the cpu and make the substitutions before these are made by the AI.

If you are playing games against the CPU, why would you want to control CPU subs? Why would you want to control the way your opponent is playing? That makes no sense to me. If you lower the stamina, the CPU makes realistic and timely substitutions. That's all that is required.

I do not want to control the cpu subs. But playing cpu vs cpu the A.I. makes substitutions for my team too. This I would like to avoid.

Oh right of course, got it. I know what I would do to avoid that, probably not your style though.

what would you do?
Well the game AI subs in players for several reasons. Stamina is a big one. So first thing I would do is raise the stamina ratings of my starting 11 into the 90s. That way the game AI will only start to sub your players in the very late part of games. Knowing that, you can start subbing players around the 60 minute mark.

The other thing the game AI looks at is player position. Say you have a CM as a starter who is playing RM. The game AI will take him out early and sub in a lower-rated RM, because it sees the RM as the correct positional player for that position. In my db, I set all players position 1 value to CB, CM or CF. And I set their position 2/3/4 values to nil.

Yes, you're right, this is impracticable for me, because I use this as a mangerial game, and therefore I do not change the values of the players,
it is a pity that it is not possible to block the substitutions by differentiating between the team playing at home and the team playing away, in this way it would be easy to leave the free substitutions to the CPU and block those of the human player.

Coulda woulda shoulda. ;) I don't pity anything, if I see an issue with the game, I change the game and fix the issue.

We could go into a long discussion about what actually creates a realistic game worth playing (db edits and career edits), and what isn't realistic at all (EA's terrible default programming), and why changes to the db and career files are absolutely essential before you start a career.

Example: last time I played career mode was FIFA 16. Second game into the season I noticed the CPU was playing their #2 GK and 4-5 bench players. That's how terrible EA's default CPU team logic was then, don't know if it's any better now. As I said, EA's position values are a big part of the issue: a CPU team with 4 85-rated CBs will remove two from the lineup, and play their 70-rated LB and RB instead. That's the sort of stuff that needs to be addressed and fixed before starting a career.

I fixed the issue eventually but it took a lot of edits, including lowering CPU team bench player ratings. And also as I said, changing their position 1 values: a CPU team with 4 85-rated CBs will remove two from the lineup, and play their 70-rated LB and RB instead.

:innocent_smile_1: what you say is right, but this game is not designed as a managerial game, and you can play in this mode thanks to this mod. I also play Football Manager 18 and, despite being a great managerial game, this too has its defects.
Fifa 18 is not made as managerial, but with this mod is still quite realistic and fun, with all the right criticism that you have highlighted.

Great tool, I'm using it the same as Devon. CPU vs CPU with 20 minute games with default attributes, sliders and no mods.

Having the same issue as Devon also. It would be great if you could disable Home and Away Subs individually and not just "Disable Subs" in general. That way I can enable and disable accordingly. Also, if you could find a way to stop Home and Away Tactical Changes by the CPU, that would be brilliant. Many thanks for developing this tool.

I want to start all the matches at a certain time but doing this manually is kind of hard. Can you do something for this by adding a little box in match settings or something?
