Rattlesnake_85 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Will the takeover make it into the final patch or will we have to wait until FM13? Reason I ask is I want to start a new save with a championship club and if it is going to be in the final patch I will wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 As always, if a takeover is completed in time for an update patch, i t is in. If the takeover is not certain or complete, as in this case at this moment in time, it cannot be in. So it's up to the real-life club's board, not SI!

Rattlesnake_85 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16677417.stm Granted the takeover is not complete at this precise moment but it will be by March. TSI have made "limited funds" available this month so surely its just a matter of crossing the t's and dotting the i's on the deal. I mean it must be almost certain otherwise why would they make funds available? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mije1983 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I would be surprised if it was in the game before it has been officially confirmed. And if that isn't going to be until March, I think you will have to use the editor yourself or wait for FM13. Look at the Stockport 'takeover'. Started in July, the consortium got Dietmar Hamann in as manager, they made bids for new players, then it collapsed in September. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 TBH if teh whole process will take until March to be finalised then it will probably be too late for any planned database update, what you might find is that Reading are listed as open for offers & they'll get a similar takeover generated by the game.

Rattlesnake_85 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 You guys are probably right in which case i will use the editor to fix it should needs be. What to do in the mean time? Need a quick game with a short term goal to see me through to the final patch, any ideas? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jogo Bonito Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 However, if there are new signings before the January window ends (as the club has stated will happen) then you should get the benefit of those players on the new patch, even if 'the balance' isn't updated.

SCIAG Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 From the mouth of the Reading researcher: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/276411-ENGLAND-(Official)-Reading-Data-Issues?p=7518275&viewfull=1#post7518275 If you're desperate to have the takeover in place, edit Zingathing to be on the board (is setting him as "owner" possible?) with high (maybe 15) resources and make Madejski unsettled. I haven't edited in a while so I don't know if future takeovers are possible, and I can't remember how to make the chairman more unsettled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jogo Bonito Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Cheers for that SCIAG and have added my thoughts on the linked thread. Unfortunately I know nothing about editing so that would be beyond me (wouldn't do it anyway in this situation). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
