tom_numbers Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I had a son once.. I think it was on FM08 or FM09. A left winger if I remember correctly, and he was utter tripe. A regen did come through on FM10 with the same name as me, but he wasn't my son. He was also tripe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFish Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Have you had him since he was 16 or so? 2034ish season? I have to wait that long for a son!?!?! :o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
santy001 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 If he was my son I'd be ashamed, my son has to be a world class striker if he wants my respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crouchaldinho Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'm very jealous. Never had a son. FM teased me recently by giving me a youth player with my surname but he wasn't my son. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFish Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 But how do you know he isnt your son? He could be, just doesnt have you down as favoured personell as he actually hates you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 But how do you know he isnt your son? He could be, just doesnt have you down as favoured personell as he actually hates you. I'm not in his favourite personnel. Also, he wasn't born in St. Albans. I think to be your son, you have to be in his favourite personnel (and maybe he has to be in yours, I don't know?) and he has to be born in the same city/town as your club. I think mine was just a case of me having a fairly common surname. The only thing I did wonder was if by having a nickname set at the time (I was taking screenshots for my career thread) it might not have triggered the favourite personnel thing. However, I think that's just me clutching at straws. I think the reality I that he's not my son. I wish he was though as he looks like he could be a half decent, if slightly limited, striker!

crouchaldinho Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Just buy him and pretend he is your adopted son. I don't need to buy him. He came through my youth. I might just pretend he is my son anyway, as you suggest! Still, it's not quite the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lospe Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Never had a son in game either But I kind of adopted a guy who's named exactly the same as me, he's my favourite fake son, and a crappy player. I'm into 2026 and still waiting for my boy to show up and be a rockstar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Play Up Pompey! Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 How does your goalkeeper have 69 goals? Does he take free kicks like Rogerio Ceni? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFish Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Id be interested to see how old Ackter is as a manager in the game. Could this have something to do with getting a son? As the player is 34 years old and he is into year 2051, so 41 years after start season. So you must be into your 70's surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ackter Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Terrible at long throws... What's his disciplinary record like, out of interest? Not too bad. Think he's had a couple of bans for yellows, and got his first red card at the age of 33. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFish Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 so you must be 28 now? Interesting. Same age as me Unless you lie about your age. hehe. 69...wonder how long it will be before the game forces you to retire, because you lack the ability to go to the toilet on your own anymore and need a zimmer frame to get to the dugout.

crouchaldinho Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 When did sons first come into the game? For FM07 or FM08 maybe? Must have been at a similar time to getting a stadium named after you. I seem to remember that they came together. Anyone remember which version had it first? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistical Approach Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 cheers. Would like someone from SI to let us know what the criteria is for a son coming into the game. Ie - age of manager / length of save / youth setup or recruitment rating Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 IIRC it's literally completely random. There's a tiny chance of a son everytime a player is generated at your club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimland Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 IIRC it's literally completely random.There's a tiny chance of a son everytime a player is generated at your club. would be creepy to get a 15 yo son in the game when the manager is 30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cougar2010 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 how do you know that? has someone from SI commented in the past? Yes, the generally understood figure is you have a 1 in 10,000 chance everytime the game generates a youth intake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
