Heddlo2009 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I had this idea once, for a Football Manager game. Not sure how possible it is though. My idea is to do a special game, anniversary or something, from the 1966 world cup. Do the players and the teams from then so you have players like Pele, Moore, Hurst etc. Obviously it'll be difficult to find them all but surely the clubs will have records of past players. Would this even interest people though? Anyway, let me know your thought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I actually like this. Would love there to be, maybe, an 'historic games' section where you get to play some of the most matches of all time. Like the 1966 world cup, the Milwall vs United cup final etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemoon1992 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Yes but may get a bit boring?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyRich Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 This would be great, but it would be a very big task, seeing as they would have to create another load of stats for players, also they wouldnt be able to get all the players from other countries either, it would be very incomplete, but it is a great concept idea none the less (y) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terra21 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I've always wanted scenarios in the game, with various challenges you could do throughout footballing history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quininho09 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 i dont think a historic games section but maybe a senario section, like take over a team like leeds (who went breasts up when they were relegated), half way through theyre last prem season and try keep them up. dont know if it could be done but it would be great i think.

joshpmilton Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 It was in LMA for a few versions, and it was awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heddlo2009 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Yeah but LMA and FM are two different kettles of fish. Anyway, it was just a thought and I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gio Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Deus84's creating a legends database - http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=148684 The author hopes to include many great sides from all over the world throughout the ages, and I'm sure it'll include some if not all of the players the OP mentioned...

Would this even interest people though? Anyway, let me know your thought. Good idea. There's actually a baseball management game called Baseball Mogul and they actually included a database that allows you to play from 1901 on. Of course, the world of baseball is much smaller than the world of soccer so, while I like the idea, the logistics could be pretty daunting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I like the scenario suggestion that quininho suggested. Trying to save Pompey with their current circumstances is an instant one that springs to mind. It could even be randomly generated scenarios at a push.

froog Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 this is a good concept. if SI put scenarios in the game i think it would keep the game fresh with different challenges to pursue. great idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 scenarios are a brilliant idea... and going down the SI way of thinking... you could make it editable so you could have the community creating their own scenarios... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Can't say I'm a fan tbh. FM for me is all about managing in the present. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwilko6 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I assume they still hold the databases from old games so I don't think it would be that differcult to implement, database wise. The only thing would be the size of database, which could be gotten around by just releasing them on the website I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Can't say I'm a fan tbh. FM for me is all about managing in the present. Thats why I said about the randomly generated scenarios. The game could generate the game as it is, then crunch some numbers and throw up a challenge. You could even put a difficulty level in. I'm going to use Portsmouth again as an example (nothing personal). So the game throws up Pompey and their troubles. Easy - Start of season, keep them up. Medium - Decemeber, keep them up. Difficult - March keep them up. And so on but with different clubs and different challenges. Spurs is another one. Easy - Start, finish in top 4 Medium - December, struggling to make 4th, you have to get them there. Difficult - March, same as above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neji Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I know I didn't say it but when I said managing in the present - I also mean (when starting) managing with the teams as close to real life as possible. Random scenarios still doesn't help that. If anything, I'd like what BGS did with CM Live Season or whatever it is called. So I can pick up the game from a certain point in the season with the real life stats at those times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
