herne79 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 You're all wrong. The answer is West Ham. Although it could be fun taking 1860 Munich back to the top or managing in Brazil can be satisfyingly bonkers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its similar in my thinking by taking a small club from a major footballing city and take them to the top Madrid for you Paris for me. Good luck with it 👍🏼 In this light I'm thinking of TSV 1860 Munchen. They already have good facilities and youth scouting so hoping to get some good regens to eventually beat Bayern Munchen. The past few years I've been playing FM15 (mostly Palermo and Blackburn) so I'm quite excited I'll be using the beta for experimenting, getting used to the game and exploring the team. If all goes well right from the start I'll continue with it, otherwise we can start over again in the full release with the lessons learned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom8983 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I think I'll beta with Liverpool. They're my usual and I want to reclaim our title of most successful English team, and knock Sir Alex off his perch at the top of the hall of fame. Revenge is a beautiful thing. Once the full release is out, I'll probably go for a journeyman save in Europe starting somewhere that I've never done before like lower league Italy, or Portugal. Or, if I'm not feeling that adventurous, since I can't manage my home teams of Northwich Vics or Witton Albion, it'll have to be Crewe Alex since they're just down the road.

kmcmillan19 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 This is the question I've been trying to answer for a couple weeks in anticipation of the new game. I usually always will do an Everton save but my preferred formation doesn't fit so well with the squad they have. I'll probably set up similar to them irl and phase into playing my way. I had a great run with Leyton Orient in FM18 and may try that one again. I've been meaning to play a German save the last couple of years so maybe I'll go that route. I'll probably do a lower league save or maybe a middle tier journeyman save. If only I had enough time to do all of this... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2017 the last FM i have, even the AI could go back with that huge stadium and not knowing how ****** the investor really is. 1860 is now a way better challenge with that decaying temple of football in Giesing to start with and the appropriate league and finances.

Any bugs which patches fix which aren't compatible with your save? That's what I am worried about as I wouldn't want to start a long term save and have issues. Hence a couple of seasons of a beta save. I personally never carry on a beta save when the full game goes live because the beta is only a small database iirc and I prefer a much larger pool of players to work with. As for who I'll go with I think I'll try Sunderland who seem to have fallen from grace and are now in league 1 irl so it would be good to see if i can get them somewhere near the premier before the main game arrives.

mikenevo Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I've not anticipated the release of an FM game for a long time now, not since fm10 probably, but my most recent save with West Ham has peaked my interest back in the game. It has only been two seasons, but has definitely been my best save in FM for a very long time. With that said, I'll be starting with West Ham!

janesy20 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I’m determined not to have as many saves as I have done in the past. It must be nearly quadruple figures the amount of saves I start each year. first save will be the youth academy challenge in Germany I do every year with RW Essen. Taking them from 3. Bundesliga yo Champions league with only using youth academy. will likely run a similar save with Scarborough Athletic in parallel. my own team York City cos I haven’t done a proper one with them since FM13. might then do 1 with a high end prem team ie Liverpool and that’s it. 4 saves in total hopefully can stick to that 🙈 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey1978 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Quite keen to try a side in the newly licensed German leagues; perhaps attempting to take Hamburg back into the top flight after their fall from grace, or St Pauli as I really like their supporters. Other than that, I'm fancying one of my normal attempts to reawaken an English sleeping giant like Sheffield Wednesday or Forest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

analogset111 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Every year I have at least one game with Man Utd. The best years for that in FM is when we have a bit of a crisis much like this one. Lots of dead wood to clear out, lots of older players to phase out, lots of young potential and lots of positions that need updating. That will be my first save for sure! I just hope we aren't so overrated this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisCo Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Probably Inter Milan for the Beta. Some great players in that squad, will be tough to topple Juve though.
