Good job some of us look under the hood otherwise you'd be even more clueless.
Nice passive aggressive reply to a harmless joke, hope it made you feel good.

As a sort of pay extra and finish the game yourself?
If you know which team you want to use, you can use the pre-game editor and fill in the relevant attributes for all the players that have it blank and then start the game, Ten - fifteen minutes work.

interesting thought, John but these look wildly low to me, even taking into account developing young players. just thought it could be a similar bug to determination i.e. where a player has no rating for an attribute, it is defaulting to 1. happy to be proved wrong.
Neil confirmed it was a bug just a few posts up, you were right.

Just now, Mr U Rosler said:
On FM19 never saw consistency move more than 2 points after developing hundreds of youth players
Obviously no idea how it will work on FM20.
Fair enough. I've no idea on how well consistency can be developed, I don't cheat.

I just wanted to point out that this is not just an issue with determination. Looking at the hidden stats using the FMSE editor, the same thing is happening with consistency and important matches attributes too.
On my new save, I have approx 35k players. Of these:
- 9.5k have a determination of 1 (9.1k 20 years of age or younger). A further 6k of players have determination of 2-3.
- 17.3k have important matches of 1 (9.6k 20 years of age or younger).
- 14.9k have consistency of 1 (9.6k 20 years of age or younger).
- 7.7k have attribute of 1 in all three categories (5.5k 20 years of age or younger).
I doubt even the most superb nurturing of young players will have any material effect on this. And, as has already been stated, it affects older players too.
Unfortunately, for me, this is game ruining at the moment and I am sadly going back to FM 19 until it is fixed. Hey ho, these things happen and I am sure SI will get this sorted asap. Shame, because the rest of the game looks to be a significant improvement.
I believe consistency and important matches are supposed to start low and grow with experience, you would really need to sim a youth intake before reading anything into that.

Sorry if that's already asked, but any idea if this fix will be save game compatible or require a new save?

Obviously I'm not a dev, but any fix is surely not going to be save game compatible as it affects attributes, which patches aren't going to change.

No. Merely pointing out newgens are unaffected.
Which still isn't the point the comment you were replying to was making.
edit: and actually worsens the situation.

The issue doesn't affect newgens
He's talking about his u23 and u18 squads. Newgens not being affected means that the starting youth players are disadvantaged and many player will swiftly move them on for newgens.

It would actually be easier if it did affect newgens, because you could just look at it as a feature that determination had to be worked on for the majority of youth players, as is it just means most of a 5-6 year swathe of players are going to be disadvantaged through the course of their careers.

The appearances are counted from when the league is won, rather than at the end, so sometimes if the league is won early players with enough appearances don't get listed as having won it.
However, if players having 30+ appearances are affected it would seem to be something else going on, worth a post in the relevant competition bug thread.

You're contradicting yourself here. Everyone is titled to their opinion full stop. If it happens to be negative without being constructive, well, unfortunately, you'll just have to deal with it, as it's not your concern, and again, they're allowed their opinion.
You can't say that they're allowed to be opinionated, then tell them how they should be opinionated.I don't think you quite understand how this forum works. There is a link on the GD main page to the forum rules and guidelines, go educate yourself.

It would be nice if the linesmen raised their flags a bit quicker. Every single time there is a two second delay, is it for dramatic effect?

I think it's because people get emotional and therfore voice their criticism emotionally, this does not mean its spam or should be a bannabel offense.
Fm is an emotonal game, you work hard on what are essentially spreadsheets in order to be rewarded when you finally get your team to play like you want, at least it is for me.
It's a game, if it winds you up to the point you are incapable of posting in an adult manner on a forum, you really need to find another hobby.

I find strange situations like Leicester winning the PL in '16 happen more regularly in view only. There aren't as many things tracked, it doesn't show top goalscorers for example. Transfer activity won't be like on full detail, but teams do seem to keep squad size the same as they start with. Newgens seem to come through at around the same rate as if the league wasn't selected at all.

I think the avatar is significantly better than last year, apart from the bizarre, Bioware style, lego haircuts. UI is taking some getting used to, but it'll be fine with time and use..

I play with a lot of leagues on view only, the main benefit for me is immersion, it's nice to be able to look at a proper league table and history. I find it has a negligible impact on performance, and with the right database choices can be quite active transfer wise.

If you want a lot of leagues without straining your system too much, I find adding leagues as view only can be useful. I generally load all the UK and Ireland leagues, and then put the top league from every other country on view only, then add players to suit my poor old laptop.

Anyone else having WAY too many goals from long shots?
Yep. In the third tier of Northern Irish football, just finished five pre-season matches and over half the goals were from outside the box. Going to give it at least a season before I pass judgement though.

No because people get banned here for many reasons, I am not even sure how I should voice negative feedback without a ban.
Absolute nonsense.

Callum McGregor`s stats need just a little tweaking to better reflect the player he is.
His balance and stamina should be at least 13 if not 14, he has a very quick turn of feet so his agility could be a 12 or 13 and his off the ball movement is phenomenal.
He is always in a position to receive a pass from a team mate to then lay off another player and/or look for the one two. So his positioning could also potentially benefit from a 1 or 2 point shift
His form for the last 3 season shows this consistently, and he just needs a small tweak to better reflect his ability in game.
2 minutes ago, McGougan33 said:Also to touch on another Celtic player who needs just a single stat to be improved to more accurately reflect his ability.
Ryan Christies work rate is exceptional, he deserves more than a 12 by some distance - Perhaps 15 would accurately reflect the work he does for the team when he doesn't have the ball.
Best posting such things in there.
Just as an FYI, Positioning is a defensive skill, Off the Ball is what you are looking for with the McGregor example.

Got the Distillery job, and the first thing I notice is I have a striker called Beta. It's a sign.

Started unemployed and applied for the team closest to me geographically, Distillery. On offering me an interview, they stated the reservations they had about appointing me, which was a nice touch. Absolutely loved the five year plan which was proposed to me in the interview, a realistic, achievable plan for the club. I just hope the board isn't overly harsh going forward if I end up a year or two behind.
I'm getting ahead of myself, haven't been offered the job yet!

I have literally just sent my OU assignment. Perfect timing!

Yes and you can use the pre-game editor to fill in those attributes too. What am I missing?
