smithers08 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Just heard on SSN (gillette soccer saturday) that Nottingham forest have had to make 6 changes due to a flu bug . Do these types of illnesses happen in FM ??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Yeah I've seen it happen a few times in FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithers08 Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 Thanks for the reply . Would be nice if it happens to the opposition , but you would be gutted if it happend to your own team . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerner Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 It happens if a player gets an illness, and you elect to treat him at the club, then if you are unlucky it spreads around, to a maximum of 10-12 players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm surprised that you haven't seen it in FM yet. In FM08, I would get a news item a good few times a season that says "... struck down by flu". It doesn't spread if you chose to send the player home though, so I've never had as many as six players ruled out with the flu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXistenZ Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 It happens if a player gets an illness, and you elect to treat him at the club, then if you are unlucky it spreads around, to a maximum of 10-12 players. that's why i send them home. they are 5-7 at home instead of 3-4 days ill at the club where they can grow an epidemic. isn't worth. i always have found it a nice feature though. gves it again a bit extra realism Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFromTheSouth Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Only really worth keeping them with the squad if it's a vital player and your other best players are also unavailable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnson993 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I always send the player home so it doesn't spread and it usually only spreads round the reserves for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimowicz Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 there was a bug in an earlier FM when even if you send a player home, 4 or 5 other players will also get the bug. it was fixed in a patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 there was a bug in an earlier FM when even if you send a player home, 4 or 5 other players will also get the bug. it was fixed in a patch. Maybe the players all shared a house? That might add more realism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbryant Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 yes ive just finished playing the demo for 09 with arsenal and i had 7 players out (due to flu) against panathanikos Almunia Clichy Toure Adebayor Wilshere Fabregas Walcott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithers08 Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 The reason I probablys havent seen it before is because I have always sent the player home to rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
