uglyklown74 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Has Clairefontaine, the French football academy been altered in the last update? Every March 7/8ish they always had a crop of new regens to plunder. Now for two years nothing!!! If so is there anyway of rolling back one update and stopping steam from automatically updating as I want Clairefontaine back please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I believe this issue was addressed in a previous patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 It was. It has been mentioned in a thread in the GPTG and I think it was an error that they were producing to good a player or something. Once Steam updates you can't go back.

phnompenhandy Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hmm, that's a bit disappointing (tho' not really to me since I didn't patch). Also disappointing if SI only announced it in GP forum since I and many others never go there. Should have been mentioned here in GD. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyäegha Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 My understanding is that, IRL, players who train at the INF Clairefontaine do so for 2 years, between the age of 13 and 15, and then move to the youth team of a club - so it would make sense for them to appear at a club and not at Clairefontaine, since new players are usually around 15.

Stu Coleman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 It was a bug that these players were ever at Clairefontaine in the first place. Newgens from Clairefontaine as well as the other institutes/academies, are now generated into senior club youth teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenzar Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 If they were never meant to appear there, why are Clairefontaine and their ilk even in the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Coleman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Presumably because it was considered a nice feature to add Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 It was a bug that these players were ever at Clairefontaine in the first place. Newgens from Clairefontaine as well as the other institutes/academies, are now generated into senior club youth teams. So does that mean none of the academies will produce any players from now on? I had subscribed to heaps of them in the hope of find some gems Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Coleman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 They produce players, but they won't appear at Clairfontaine. They'll appear as a normal newgen at a French club, with a line of history indicating they have come from Clairfontaine (or another academy). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Will they show up on the academies transfer list or is it a case of these academies will never have players in their squads, they instantly go to clubs in their nation as soon as they come into the game but with a history of having trained at the academies? So players from ASPIRE will go to clubs in Qatar and players at NSWIS go straight to Australian clubs? Also can clubs from other countries get players from these Academies if they have a good enough scouting network? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
