Proccy Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 A couple of questions on journalists in-game that I'm not really sure of. 1-Have the journalists got names other than 'A Journalist'? I haven't seen any real names for journalists as yet, and surely it wouldn't be that difficult to implement. 2-Aren't you supposed to build up relationships with certain journalists? I haven't seen this yet, but I have only managed at Lower League so far, so maybe it is only at a higher level. I must say that i do love the Press Conferences feature, and have been to every one so far. Can anyone shed some light on this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
medo24 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 If you play in Spain you will see they have names and a relationship status but in England they aren't named for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proccy Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks medo24 Can anyone who plays in England shed some light on what is going on with journalists on FM09? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I think you can add journalists and media on your own with an .edt-file. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Warren Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 To quote Nick - one of the coders who works on press conferences; Real media sources can't have real journalists for legal reasons. You can create media sources and assign journalists to real media sources via the edt files. I'm fairly sure there's some community-created media edit files floating about already, could be worth checking the editors forum Hope that helps.

Proccy Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 Thanks, that does help, but still doesn't explain why I can't have a relationship with a journalist :confused: Can they call them Mr X or Mr A etc? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kertiz Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Yeah I saw this a while a go and was quite looking forward to it. Dissapointing that its not been implemented Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proccy Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 I think it would add nicely to the feature and I was expecting it really. I really enjoy the Press Conferences but I would enjoy it more if I had a relationship with them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamweesel Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Don't they develop relationships after some time at least i see one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Nick Habershon Posted November 19, 2008 SI Staff Share Posted November 19, 2008 Journalists do develop relationships with managers - it obviously takes time to establish though as they get to know you and the way you answer questions. Fake journalists won't have personality or relationships for the reason as quoted in a post above. I believe there are some enthusiastic people in the FM Community creating media files with real media sources and journalists.
