Sort of, I started doing it but the amount of weird decisions the AI make, makes it impossible.
Do it for one fixture and predict the starting 11. You'd be lucky to get 5 guys sometimes

True, but I tend to rotate a lot myself as well. You have to when you have so many fixtures. I have maybe 2 guys with very high natural fitness that can play just about every match. I suppose my lineup for the big matches is pretty predictable, as I look ahead and design my rotation so that my best players will play the big matches.

So I'd hate to be the AI trying to predict my lineups for matches other than those.

Understood, but there is no real logic to it from what I could understand. I do normally play in the Conference National, so it might be to do with the caliber of player at that level that causes it.

I tell myself each year that I'm going to do this and then when the new one comes out I end up getting it anyway.

Me too. Mostly because I like to support them. They work so hard to perfect the game every year and support it after release.

I say every year that I won't buy the new one and stick with the one from the year before (and I'm saying that now). So many hours spent playing and I guess I'll buy this one as well.

So, they just released a bunch of info on 2016.

It'll be released on November 13th, pre-order it and you get the beta 2 weeks early. https://www.humblebundle.com/gamepag...2016_gamepage/

I'll be all over this the second Steam has a sale on it.


That being said, how awesome would an OS Fantasy Draft save be?
