Football, Tactics & Glory News

Lothar Matthäus, the football star who shined in 80-90th, the winner of FIFA World and Euro Championships, one of the best midfielders of all time, winner of many international and Germany trophies becomes the face of Football, Tactics & Glory!

The former player of Bayern Munich and Inter Milan will represent our game on the first day of Gamescom in the booth of our publisher - Toplitz Production.

Our world champion can be weighted and measured. So we compiled a few numbers important to his career. They will help you to make a better guess.

I will update this article with the new hints once in 2-4 days.

8 - Our world champion can pride himself on this number in two countries.

5 - This number alone is a remarkable success very few achieve.

I suppose that the publisher will more probably reward those who not only guess the football player but also explain what the numbers mean.

On our forum, you can discuss the numbers and the quest itself.

This year, we (me and my wife who helps me to show FTG) are going to visit Gamescom with a booth. At the evening, after the exhibition ends, we are free. So If you are in Cologne at 19-23 of August, and if you want to talk about Football, Tactics & Glory, let's meet! We can occupy some bar/cafe and discuss everything game-related ;)

You can add me to friends if you want to send a private message. Or you can write right in this forum thread.

In the process of preparing the console version of the game, we are adding all the improvements made to the Steam version as well.

In this and previous updates, we fixed a huge number of rare bugs, and also added new types of socks and shorts to the kit editor.

But the biggest new feature is the official gamepad support. Now, if you connect a gamepad, the game recognizes it and you can continue playing with it.

We tested the game with the Steam Controller, Xbox360 and one of the Logitech controllers.

To configure the gamepad during the game, press Shift + Tab, and in the upper right corner, click on the Controller Settings link. In the opened window you can reassign buttons.

There are two settings that I would recommend for you to customize:

1) Stick Response Curve - the more you tilt the stick, the faster the cursor moves. But you might want the dependence on the tilt is non-linear. I personally chose the option 'Wide'. Thanks to this setting, the cursor will move fast only with very large stick tilt. The weak and medium tilts will move the cursor much slower.

2) Dead Zone Inner - defines the zone in which the gamepad will be insensitive. If your gamepad is old, and its stick is slightly tilted, which leads to an automatic cursor shift, increase this area a little. For myself, I set a zone of 0.100.

The screenshots below show how to find these settings.

Steam allows disabling the gamepad support for individual games.

Right-click on Football, Tactics & Glory in Steam Library. Click Properties. There's a setting "Steam Input Per-Game Setting". Switch it to Force Off.

P.S. Do you play PC games with a gamepad? If so, what gamepad do you use?

Football, Tactics & Glory might feel shallow at first. But the more you play it, the more you see. When you start understanding skills, talents, classes and crosses you start seeing how deep the game is.

Many players drop the game after the first few hours. So one of our players - yoman38 decided to explain one of the crucial game elements - skills and talents.

He created a video which explains the basics:

The voice is recorded by CommRio. Check out his Youtube channel about strategies. Also, he has a video series about Football, Tactics & Glory where he learns the game step by step. So you might find something new in these videos (and commentaries under them).

Also, if you have problems understanding some game's basic, yoman38 opened an educational channel in our Discord server.

So if you feel that the game is either too shallow or too hard - come to our forum or discord. I (developer) or one of our very experienced players will help you.

Have fun!
