soulblind Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 I'm sure there has to be a thread pertaining this but for the life of me I can not find it. I have to ask this since this has been haunting me forever now. Obviously I know CA means current ability and PA potential ability. Now, what is the highest in each and I've noticed people here talk about prospects with -9 PA. Why is it negative? And what is the highest in CA? I'm really confused when it comes to this.

Spleen! Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 The highest CA and PA are 200. The negative PAs mean that the player's PA isn't defined on the database, but gets generated on starting a new game between certain limits. -10 = 170-200 -9 = 150-180 -8 = 130-160 -7 = 110-140 -6 = 90-120 -5 = 70-100 -4 = 50-80 -3 = 30-60 -2 = 10-40 -1 = 0-30 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizaa Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 The answer can be found in the forum faq. This is the bit of interest to you: III. What is a players Current Ability and/or Potential Ability how can it change? Every single player on Football Manager has a Current Ability, also known as CA. This is a number ranging from 1-200, 1 being a very low ability, 200 being the highest. A players current ability changes throughout the game, depending on training, game time, and injuries. A player's current ability can also naturally go up, as a player gets older. A players Current Ability CAN change throughout the game. Every player also has a Potential Ability, commenly known as PA. Player Ability is a number that players are assigned to before the save game starts, and a players potential ability is the same on everyones game. This number also ranges from 1-200. A potential ability of 1 means the player is more than likely to be awful, a potential ability of 200 has the potential to be one of the worlds best. Although most players have set potential abilities, some players have varying potential abilities. These potential abilities are negative potentials. At the start of a new game players with negative potentials are assigned potentials, ranging from one number to another. The different negative abilities and what they mean are shown below: -10 = PA 170-200 -9 = 150-180 -8 = 130-160 -7 = 110-140 -6 = 90-120 -5 = 70-100 -4 = 50-80 -3 = 30-60 -2 = 10-40 -1 = 0-20 A players Potential Ability CAN NOT change throughout the game.
