kinkladze10 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I'm thinking of playing as a LLM so want to load as many players as possible, my system is ok but I'm trying to work out what the difference is in game speed from 5 stars to 1 star. I don't want to get into a save and realise it's too slow and so and have to start again. So far I can get around 46,000 players and have 3 stars lit but I have no idea of how long this will take in between matches. I know this differs vastly per pc but is there a guideline as to what is considered "playable" and what isn't ? I've tried looking for other posts but can't seem to see anything, welcome any help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soverntear Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I used to play on a half star game before. it takes forever. I find 2 stars is a playable level that is a decent compromise between speed and database size. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatBarStud Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Not sure on the difference, but I always load every league in the world (top division only, view only) except the league I start in (playable, all divisions) This gives me 3 stars, and it is exactly the same speed as 5 stars.. I have to do this, as SI have never fixed the player history (leagues) from showing on their profile from leagues which are not loaded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicha_14 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I don't really take notice myself. Mine says a limit of 75000 players but I use 90000 and it always says half star spped rating even though its the same speed as if i was using 20000 players loaded. Also no noticeable reduce in speed when 15-20 years in to a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomit Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 What speed is playable ... I reckon is very much up to the individual. I got a very capable computer, but I also play with the largest database and all european leagues + Brazil and Argentina, and I have 1 star for speed. Suits me fine, others may find it way too slow for their liking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hehehemann Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I have to do this, as SI have never fixed the player history (leagues) from showing on their profile from leagues which are not loaded. Has this been fixed on FM12? Seems like it should be now we can freely add/remove leagues. If not, maybe I'm not understanding what your fully meaning. Let me know as I may have to do the same as you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinkladze10 Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Thanks for the replies, I'll load a few more leagues and see what happens, good to know later in the game it is consistent. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its still not been fixed, the leagues still disappear from a players history like in the last few Fm's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I always try to stick above 3 stars just personal preference really and anything under is a speed I find too slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabio MVP Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Star rating system is still flawed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalGenius Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I've got a save going with 2.5 stars, using a Large database, every single European league (as well as Argentina and Brazil) on view only, and ''Players from Top Division clubs' for Europe loaded. Speed seems the same as my usual 3.0 - 3.5 star saves, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coentrao Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I have a old PC and i find that everything between 2.5 and 3 stars is acceptable. Only load like 6 or 7 leagues (most of them in view-only) and use the option of loading players from top clubs to ensure more regens from different regions on the future.

GazTheDoood Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I've played every single game with loads of leagues from all over the world, and get half a star performance. Runs fine. I've always thought the star system was flawed, might just be personal preference on speed from me though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dapper One Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 At the moment mines on 2 stars with most of the leagues on full detail but i'm still not sure what that does, can anyone tell me if it makes a difference? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
