Recommended Player Limit

I have a recommended player limit of 20,000. I know this is a guide but roughly how far over it can I go before it slows down so much its unplayable?

Well, I have about 60 000 when I started my game, and it isn't slow at all really.. But it depends on how good your computer is, though.

yeah. thats what I was thinking I take it if I upgrade my RAM I should be able to run more leagues and have more players loaded?

My player limit was 20,000 but I have 30,000 and it works the same. Make sure you delete your cache every half season or so, depending on how much scouting and such you do.

I only load the English and Scottish leagues but load players from all over the UK and it can slow me down a bit, but before I play FM I make sure I've restarted my computer and I don't do much else besides Firefox.

ok thanks for the help.

For reference, the player limit can be exceeded. It very much depends on your computer though as to how much you can exceed it.

I didn't notice any of this as I steamed straight into a save game before having a real look at any of this

Which files in the cache to be deleted?

I believe i have retained every player in the world! It has slowed down things a little, BUT no where near as much as loading extra leagues. Therefore i play just 3 countries, about 13 leagues total, but retain every player. I cant stand looking at U21 nation sides and seeing them full of greys, which is why i do it.

I have more than 200k players loaded and it's not particularly slow at all. However, my computer have an average Windows Experience Index of 6,28, so it's a pretty darn good computer. I wouldn't recommend trying to run a game of that size unless you actually have atleast 6 GB RAM and a good processor.
