Do you also want automatic tactical changes in case you lose? 😅

Sorry to use irony, fortunately those who follow their matches is an advantage in some circumstances.

Well, imagine you can't follow the match because of something serious IRL, and one of your players gets injured, well then you'll be glad there's automatic substitution.

But if we play with only 10 players there's no many chances to win.
Once a player is down, he leaves the match, so we're not 11 but 10.

But I'm talking about during the match

You have to be present during your match - it makes sense

As I said against during the match. Because the MDm often favours the afk (especially in IE), it's better to leave it like that. After an injury if you're afk it's like a red. How many times have I found myself on 10 vs 11. So on the contrary, the day I injure an opposing player, I'm happy (in the game, of course).

If you watch my championship match yesterday, you'll understand why I say MDM advantage AFK. A match I must have won 100x when you look at the stats (not counting the XGs). + tactics.

I've always struggled more against AFKs (my last IE proves it! against an afk), than against actives.
And that's the case for a lot of managers here.

Yes, I have a league where 3 managers play matches at 8am while I'm at work, but that's the game. But advantaging afk by making an automatic change in case of injury basically means no need to log on to VF during matches.

All you have to do is stay AFK, in which case you'll easily win your championship.

Not sure lol, but why not get better results in IE.

But that already exists.
And it still works (you receive an "Injury" message, and therefore, in theory, the notification).

However, it doesn't work for suspensions (at least not for me).

I'll have to check my settings then 😅
I do have notifications but only after the match not at the time of injury personally.

Not a great deal? 1.5 hours a day for results that are a bit bogus ... I think that's already too much.

For an online management game, it's no big deal to have to manage ONE match. After that, we can talk about the real time of a match, yes, it's probably too long these days.
I was talking about the other actions, which take a total of 2 minutes. That's not much. So if we start automating everything so that we don't have to follow a match any more... because that's kind of the point of the proposal. We should also add the option "adapt to the opponent's attack", "modify the style of play to find the most optimal" or whatever. You could push it. Or choose a 'holiday' mode where the game manages absolutely everything.
