[Squad planner shouldn't be tied to the tactics screen]

On 08/10/2023 at 20:39, Poison said:

Doesn't it have multiple options as is? For all 3 slots? You could switch the new tactic to the 3rd slot for example and plan there maybe?

Yes but a lot of times i use all three slots plus i don't want to go back and fourth between screens if i want to try multiple tactics.

[Squad planner shouldn't be tied to the tactics screen]

If i have tactics set up for my current season but i want to plan for a new tactic next season i don't want to switch out my current tactics to do that, i want to be able to monitor and adjust my squad planner on the fly without effecting my current tactics.

[Question about Premier League foreign Under-21 player restrictions]

Any ideas? Is it random, is the one i agreed to sign first the one that goes through?

[Question about Premier League foreign Under-21 player restrictions]

So i'm Man Utd, i've signed 4/6 under-21 foreign players this season with a plans for a 5th before the window shuts.

In January i have 2 coming in, obviously that takes me over my limit.

Question, how does the game decide which of the two players gets cancelled?

One of them is really good, the other i could do without.

So for us 50+ we don't speak the "lingo" or would you suddenly consider yourself young, ?

old or young, the answer you got would probably not change, and trying to make a creator add something for a extra user, is not the way to go.

Most... if not all skin creators make the skin to be able to enjoy the game more, with the info they want closer at hands, and not to satisfy others

sry for the rant.

Not sure where this came from.

[[FM23] [SKIN] #TATO23]

So there's a few bugs i've noticed, not sure if it's something i'm doing wrong.

The personalised icon overlaps the rest of the player information.

Premier League is showing as blue in the league standings but white on the competitions page.

Also every team that is white (i.e Fulham, Leeds, Spurs) are all blue and not white.

[Change the positioning and colour of highlighted section in sidebar]

Thank you both for your help.

I will give it a try!

[Change the positioning and colour of highlighted section in sidebar]

In this years FM, the section you have selected on the sidebar shows a thin rectangle to the right, rather than the left in previous versions.

It's also blue, rather than a more subtle variant of the sidebars colour.

I find this to look out of place and messy, is there any way to change this?

[[FM23][SKIN] Material Skin 2.0.23 V1.17 by budwaiser4]

Thanks for the work on this.

Would you be able to tell me how to remove the graphics on the sidebar? It doesn't look that good in icon only view imo.

[fm23 still too many old players in squads in future and not enough youth development]

On 26/10/2022 at 22:12, CFuller said:

This was the main thing that put me off a long-term save on FM22. Big teams and nations over-reliant on older players, and hardly bringing any youngsters through other than the odd generational talent. If it's still like this on FM23, then what's the point in playing on beyond the first 5 seasons?

I'm convinced that it's (at least partly) related to player reputations not growing fast enough. On FM22, there were very few high-reputation youngsters in 2030 compared to at the start of the game, but the reduction of high-CA youngsters wasn't quite as bad.

I've not had time to run any tests on FM23, but I fear this might still be a problem.

I agree that it's disappointing, but the game doesn't live or die by this problem.

At some point all that'll be left is regens meaning their more likely to use younger players, certainly younger compared to real life pros that they hang on to until their mid 30s.

As long as the teams remain competitive then does it really matter which players they use?

[*Official* Football Manager 2023 Early Access Beta Feedback Thread]

So something that has always bugged me is how the game implements staff limits, for a number of years now Man Utd have around 30 odd scouts, but the limit set by the club is around half that, meaning if i sack anyone i can't replace them, likewise in this years game they are allowed 1 assistant manager but IRL they have 2 (Steve McClaren & Mitchell van der Gaag) so they are over the limit in game, now if one of them is a glorified coach that ETH works closer with then call either one that in the game, or give me a 2 assistant limit, either way it's wrong.

I know it's typically not normal to have two assistants, so it's not like i need that limit, but it just looks a bit silly when the board say i can 1 but they've clearly allowed 2, it's small details like this that can be immersion breaking, why not just set the limit to the minimum amount of current staff, it costs nothing just to be accurate.

Unless there's some other reason i'm overlooking.

[*Official* Football Manager 2023 Early Access Beta Feedback Thread]

Feel like most of the goals i score are from set pieces (could be my tactic) and the near post corner bug is still exploitable.

Historically they do make changes to database between Beta and Full Release and then again in mid-late February.   For instance last year they nerfed Ronaldo between Beta and Full Release.

Ah interesting, i didn't see the nerf on full release because i started in Beta, saw it during the Feb update and assumed it was from that. Here's hoping Martinez and Dalot get an update!

I'm guessing he'll get a bump when full release data base is updated.  And Ronaldo will get nerfed.  

Do they often make changes to the data before the full release? I assumed players attributes pretty much stayed the same until the winter update.

[Rebuild Man United in FM23]

Think the problem is that the stats are based off last season or very early this season so Dalot is unfortunately going to be underrated, he should also be either footed imo.

If things keep going well for him this season though he should be a beast by the next data update, same with a lot of United's new signings.

 

[Is FM being hold back by low specs?]

I really don't care about the graphics but i'd love the game performance to scale with better hardware.

There's a 125k player limit in place no matter how good your machine, now if i own an AMD threadripper and we can safely ignore that message then either remove the text telling me there's a limit or actually tell me as a high spec owner that i can actually load 250k players (for example) with no issue, or code your game to utilize better hardware.

Let me see the benefits of 128gb ram over 64gb ram, let me see the benefits of an AMD threadripper over an i9 9900k, and if those benefits already exist then tell me.

Also let me up the limit on the amount of matches that are stored from previous seasons.

Surely that last one is a piece of cake to implement, warn me on the dangers of upping it (based on my specs) but let me have the freedom to do it.

[The Officially Unofficial “When’s the FM23 BETA out?” speculation thread]

Wasn't the data lock confirmed to be the 25th?

I was under the impression that the database didn't change between beta and full release.

[New Laptop but same amount of Leagues]

It's not an issue of RAM. Even if you load 500k players and 200 playable leagues the game won't need more than 10GB's of RAM. There will be just such a huge amount of data which must be calculated. To speed up FM in the first place, you need the best CPU possible and not 128GB of RAM.

Well then my point applies to CPU, if i have an i9 9900k and it says 125k players recommended then upgrading to an AMD threadripper should increase the amount of players i can load.

[New Laptop but same amount of Leagues]

I think FM is software limited where past a certain point upgrading your hardware doesn't help.

For example, there's a recommended limit of 125k players in place that should surely go up the more RAM you have no? If i have 128gb RAM then why can't i utilize 95% of it for FM and load every single player with zero minimal performance hit.

So, you'll get the UEFA logos and cups but the clubs not in a licensed league or allowed to use proper names who qualify will still be the same. Bit underwhelming really 

But most clubs in the game have the correct name, not really a big deal.

[Evidence Based FM's testing seems to show that Match Prep sessions increase the likelihood of losing the next match compared to no training at all. Is this a bug or something else?]

On 16/06/2022 at 15:59, Kevinho7 said:

Exactly

That's assuming once you learn a tactic and establish your players roles then they're locked in for the entire season.

But if you have backup tactics you rarely use then during the course of the season don't you need tactical familiarity training in order to keep those tactics from losing familiarity?

[Increase Match Storage Space]

Thanks for creating this request.

Seems like quite an easy thing just to up the limit or give us more options, as long as the default is a sensible amount so that it doesn't hurt the average user.
