How many leagues do you usually load?

Just interested .

26+ usually over 5 or so nations with added league files for the nations

37 leagues from 16 nations, all playable..

maybe also tell what pc's u have, because i cant imagine what speed there's with 37 leagues... I play wiht 4-5 leagues from 2-3 nations.

Less is more!

I prefer a quick, long-term game that I know will still be really smooth when I'm 10 or 20 seasons in.

It very much depends where I am intending to manage. If it is just one club, I will only load the leagues from that club's country. If I am having a career where I intend to move to different leagues, I would tend to pick 3 or 4 countries and no more than 5.

4-5 here as well.

I've always wondered what's the most I could run without experiencing a major slowdown, but could never be bothered making a new game just to test that. I've got 3GB RAM and a quad-core CPU.

FULL DETAIL

Dutch (1 league)

English (5)

French (2)

German (2)

Italian (2)

Portugese (1)

Russian (1)

Spanish (2)

Turkish (1)

Ukrainian (1)

VIEW ONLY

Argentina (1)

Brazil (1)

Greece (1)

Belgium (1)

Scottish (1)

If I play a lower league game I will sacrifice the Turkish, Ukrainian and Russian leagues to view only and have the Scottish League on down to D3 and well as load all British players. I always play a large DB.

Currently running every league on the game.

Usually about 42-44 leagues from 16-17 nations.

Usually about 6 for me.

I tried to load up every league in the game once... it took about 13 hours just to get to the Manager Profile page.

It took even longer to quit out the game afterwoods.

What is the specifications of your PC, bro?

I am loading 19 nations now with 50 leagues. The game is very playable. My computer specs is 4GB RAM, 2.53Ghz dual core!

By the way, what exactly is the benefit of adding leagues as "View only"? Never tried that either.

Is it just so you can see the competitions, or does it affect the DB size too?

I load all leagues from the Nation i pick to manage in. so usually 1-3

Currently running every league on the game.

Does it run at a reasonable pace, bro? What is the specifications of your PC?

I'm only interested in the English, Spanish and Italian leagues so 8.

I usually load around 120-130 leagues.

26+ a lot on view only

To anyone running more than 50 leagues. How many stars does your speed rating get? and on what processor

Most of the time i play with 5. Usually being the top leagues from England, Spain, Italy, Germany and France.

To anyone running more than 50 leagues. How many stars does your speed rating get? and on what processor

63 leagues from 23 nations all on full detail on a large database. 1/2 a star - well what did I expect on a 2.41ghz Intel Dual Core Processor with 2GB of RAM. I use a program called 'Game Booster' to help speed things along.

The game is very playable, and enjoyable. Will probably slow down later on but that's alright with me.

I usually play with four leagues from England or three top leagues from three countries ie. England, Italy and Spain.

To anyone running more than 50 leagues. How many stars does your speed rating get? and on what processor

Half a star with all leagues, but speed is more than reasonable. AMD Quad core Phenom II Black 3.2 Ghz, Overclocked to 3.4

Usually around 20.

I'm playing FM 2009, patched to what I think is the latest version)... I have selected all leagues from all nations (everything playable) at maximum detail. The only thing I left out was the "load all players" from one of more nations option.

My PC specs are: Phenom II 940 (quad-core) with 8Gb RAM (DDR2-800), and a reasonably fast 7200rpm single hard drive (I don't think anything else affects performance in this game).

Sometimes, when there are several days of game time without anything for my team to do, it can take around 10m until I have access again. Shorter periods of game time are considerably faster, and saving/loading is done in about 10-15 seconds.

Still in my first season, though, and I hear the game becomes slower as the game history increases.

I don't mind much because I often do several things while I'm playing so I just ALT+TAB my way in and out of the game.

For me its England as low as I can get, plus the rest of the World in view only.

All the leagues with England,Italy & Spain as playable the rest view only.

All Eng + Spain + Italy in Playable = that is around 10 leagues.

Sometimes I load few more top European leagues in view-only mode but not always.

Usually 5 or 6 leages from 4-5 nations. Always top 2 leagues in England and top leagues in Spain, France, Germany and Italy.

Only thing that bothers me is the fact that regens mostly come out of these countries. I wish regens would be more spread out as in real life.

Hi mate,

what is this game booster programme?

does it really work that well?

cheers

all the leagues playable from all available countries and plays very quick too, but i do have 8gb of ram and 1tb of mem on a big machine

The top 2 Leagues from 4 or 5 top European countries. So something like England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France; 10 leagues in total.

About 6-7. Usually the top two English Leagues, and the Top Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch and French leagues.

I use Game Booster aswell and it really helps, it basically shuts the programmes down in the background that are taking all the processor functions up. Also the people who make Game Booster make a programmed called Advanced System Care which has a Turbo Booster option which I also use.

I generally run 21 leagues from 6 countries, usually England down to the Blue Square North/South and the top two divisions in usually France, Spain, Holland, Italy and Portugal. On a 4gb dual core 2.53ghz laptop.

RAM and mem are the same thing, mate, so... you mean "hard drive", I believe... right? Reason I ask is because the size of the hard drive really doesn't affect performance, but rather the speed of the hd (RPMs, access time, read time, write time, number of platters, etc).

sorry for the bump, but thought i should mention it, i just loaded up 90 leagues from 46 nations! (only england playable )

About 110 leagues from 54 nations, all playable... On top of that I load all players with nationalities from Europe, N & S America...

3 or 4. Poor laptop can't handle more

England(down to level 11), Scotland(division 3), Wales(premier division), Rep. Ireland(lowest possible whatever it is), N. Ireland(premier Division).

All british and polish players loaded.

Game runs fine but on F.A. cup weekend takes ages because of the amount of teams playing.

Every league's top division, and England down to league 2.

79 Leagues

All playable

oh, bugger. i answered the poll but noobed up a bit and put 20-26 cos i tought you meant nations. actually i have between 100 and 110 leagues loaded, most playable but some view-only. Makes it amazingly slow but i don't really care too much

Somewhere between 16 and 28.

Normally play 16 leagues, which are all the ones in the UK & Ireland.

I'm exactly the same. Currently I'm just playing with all the English leagues only and as I'm stikcing with one club I don't really feel as if I'm missing out but not having any more.

Hence the 'dafuge challenge' no?

I always sign up, but most of the time I end up playing another save with 3 simultaneous managers in 3 different countries with around 70 leagues loaded. I like scouting and being able to take over clubs in other countries if I feel like it. Too often I felt I wanted to take over another team, only to realise that I hadn`t loaded that league, or country. Right now I`m happy with my 3 managers

Hence the 'dafuge challenge' no?

The real reason for that rule in the challenge was actually because in 2006 (when it started) I had a pretty awful computer and couldn't run much more than that!

Oh, you son-of-a ... Well, it certainly makes it harder, but knowing the real reason behind it ... I couldn`t help but laugh out loud

85% of all leagues
