  1. That's a real life change that's coming I believe, have seen it mentioned before.
  2. If the researcher hasn't been able to find a reliable source to add the person's height into the database then it will be randomised upon starting a new game. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I think there's ranges that can be used by the researcher so if a player is short but you don't know the exact height then they can be set to a range with a random height between say 5ft and 5ft5 for example so their height doesn't end up too far out of what it should be.
  3. This is the sort of thing that would be really good to get reported as a bug if not done so already please.
  4. His shirt name is set to "NWOSU" in the database. If you've then got "show shirt name on the pitch" ticked in Preferences that'll be why it appears in all-caps. Needs amending to "Nwosu" or removing entirely given that it matches his surname.
  5. Joined Man Utd as a part-time academy scout at the start of December this year. Not sure if he's still playing part-time elsewhere. Also has a typo in his non-playing history - his "date left" for Maltby Main is before his "join date".
  6. Because maybe we're volunteers who don't work 24/7 and when posts come through at gone midnight, a lot of us are in bed asleep? There's no obligation to approve posts the second they're posted, things get approved when we get round to it. Easiest way to avoid this is to not get yourself on post moderation to begin with.
  7. If the -95 was a -9 I don't think anyone would bat an eyelid, both he and the two other English -9s from that age group are fantastic young talents who are head and shoulders above their peers and have shown it both domestically and internationally in their own age groups and U21s. The problem is when you elevate him to the -95 bracket, he hasn't done anywhere near enough compared to the others rated with the same PA. Most of those have been playing first team football since they were 15 years old and consistently showcase their ability on the biggest stages whereas these 3 at 15 years old were either making U21s debuts or in one case a PL debut purely as a sweetener for a contract offer and to ensure the club received more than the standard compensation if they did leave. We likely just have different standards about what constitutes enough for a -95 but for me when it comes to 15-18 year olds, unless they're playing first team football already I think it's too high. If they were that good, they would be impacting the first team already because you're talking about the potential to be the best player in the world and when you look at the top players - Ronaldo, Messi, Bellingham etc, they were already playing mens football regularly by then.
  8. In addition to the above, I would also question some of the PAs that have been handed out. A -95 for a player who has played 0 minutes of men's football and no international football higher than U17s when every other -95 player in the DB is a regular for the first team of their club and/or country. There is no other English player with a random PA that high, it's far too early to be claiming him to be the best player England could produce when he's not shown anything above his own age group internationally or above what is widely regarded as an unfit for purpose PL U21s competition in England. There's also 7 -85 players, only Ajax have more and they're the joint highest in England (Chelsea the other). If everything works out, they've almost got a full 11 of potentially world class level players of whom collectively have less than 100 games of senior football and 74 of those are from one player. Don't get me wrong, a number of those may be perfectly justifiable but on paper at the moment it sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of the DB and other players of similar ages who are already playing first team football at a high level.
  9. There's a bug thread with a workaround here: https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2024-early-access-bugs-tracker/1103_user-interface/it-is-no-longer-possible-to-change-the-managers-face-image-r20662/ It looks like it was removed as part of the fix for newgens/game created staff reusing IDs.
  10. Some of the competition changes and the database changes will require a new game to take effect, the gameplay and match engine fixes should be saved game compatible though
  11. Every player will be assessed ahead of the next major data update after the January transfer window and changes made where deemed necessary.
  12. Head to here: https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2024-early-access-bugs-tracker/ Choose the area that best fits the bug you are reporting. Click on "Add New Issue" at the top right. Fill out the form with as much information as you can, preferably with screenshots and/or a saved game depending on the type of issue.
  13. If you holiday to that day/the day after, does the ban kick in? On previous games bans that have been set in the future kick in on the date.
  14. Just to nip this in the bud, if it's the one I'm thinking of, I'm guessing they left out the part where the "disagreement" was them repeatedly abusing a researcher despite being told to stop and getting banned for it rather than an issue with SI.
