    FM23 on Mac

    Hi,

    I am planning to switch back to MacBook after trying windows for 2.5 years with my HP Envy 15.

    Can people using M2 MacBook Air, share their experiences, if they are facing heating issues, especially while playing FM23?  Or any other issues?

    Would it be better if I instead get an M2 MacBook Pro 14 as it has fans to cool down the temperature? Or are there any other issues while playing FM23?

    I got an M2 macbook air a couple of weeks ago and sold my M1. I've noticed a big difference heat wise. My M2 barely heats at all, where as the M1 used to heat quite considerably. I have upgraded the RAM (8 to 16GB) and storage (256 to 512gb) on the new laptop though.

    Runs very fast and smoothly. I tend to play with 6 nations active and 13/14 divisions.

    I would assume the real name fix for some things would be the same process as last year.

    The only real name fix I can think of needing to do is the Brazilian team names, as the UEFA competitions are now licensed and Juventus are no longer a striped horse - oh, and Man UFC.

    We still need to delete the file to enable German national team?

    Player demanding a release clause, what are my options??

    in Football Manager General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by 9craiggibson

    A way round this I have found is getting your DOF to renegotiate a renewal. As soon as you have selected this option, you can change the contract he has offered. A lot of the time the DOF offers a contract without the forced requirement of a release clause, if this is the case i leave the contract offer as is. If they have offered a contract with a release clause you have the option to remove it and maybe try increase wages/sign on etc

    A good DOF makes a big difference here I'd imagine...

    Major Changes for FM22 Touch and Beyond Blog

    We try and do a matrix of sorts (you can see the FM21 here - https://www.footballmanager.com/compare-games) that allows people to see the differences.

    Definitely certain aspects within 'full' FM can be set to be handled by your assistant and staff through staff responsibilities. Don't like doing say press conferences? Fine, you'll never have to do one again. Our staff responsibilities make aspect very flexible. 

    Xbox Edition can be played with a mouse and keyboard.

    Main difference is you are limited to 10 playable nations on an Xbox Edition game. 

    My only concern with this would be, does this not effect your rating as a manager in game?

    I've actually sold my ipad, bought a macbook and preordered the full game for the first time in a few years coincidentally, liked the idea of having touch to fall back on however

    Youth Intake

    in Reviewed

    Posted

    Please sort the issue with the youth intake in the 22 Touch edition. Ruins saves after a number of seasons only having players from three nationalities. In saying that I've just completed the 30 season mark and can't play anymore :lol:

    If you would like anyone to help test the beta for Touch edition I would be happy to do so.

     

    Thanks

    Youth Intake Stopping after 1 season

    The only way the game can be changed in any way by us is via an update, so yes it includes that. 

    So we are 6 months into the game's lifetime, it is clearly not functioning properly, but yet fixes/support is now cut? With 6 months until a new FM release (based on previous release dates) and we've to make do with a broken game? Not what you expect when you purchase a product, not good enough.

    Training/Youth Facilities Upgrade

    in Bugs Found on iOS

    Posted

    Now in 2035 with not one successful facilities request, despite technological advancements leaving my them poorer. (Rangers + Real Madrid). Still the same issues with lack of diverse youth intake outwith three selected nations and sorting by certain categories not working (e.g. Corners, Free Kicks). Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Hi Guys,

    Below is some further info about Youth Intake:

    The latest update 21.3.0 contains fixes aimed at improving Youth Intake numbers for both active and inactive leagues, as well as maintaining the long term total player count in saves. All changes are save game compatible.

    We have introduced a stricter "minimum value" for the amount of players per intake. This means that top flight clubs should receive at least 8 players in every intake, with lower division clubs receiving slightly less - in most cases this should always be at least 4+.

    These minimum values are now met regardless of the total player count in game, so even if the total player count hasn't decreased since game start, the number of players being generated will not decrease below a certain point. This means that it is now possible (and in many save game setups likely) that the player count will now gradually increase rather than decrease, especially in the first 10 years of a save, after which it will start to flatten out again.

    I believe there are still some nations where a decrease may be possible - in Argentina for example where the squad sizes at game start are unsustainably huge - but there should now be a much healthier number of newgens generating across all active leagues than before.

    Hopefully these changes will mean that the reserve squads are less dependant on virtual (greyed out) players to make up the numbers, but to clarify, the presence of virtual players does not mean a club is not producing enough newgens.

    We have also increased the number of newgens per intake for clubs in inactive leagues, but unfortunately the custom db setups where loads of players have been loaded into inactive leagues are still most likely to experience a drop in player count. It should be less severe than before this update, but my advice for long term saves would probably still be to add nations as playable if you want every club there to generate a youth intake every season and maintain the overall player count.

    Thanks again for your patience and all the information posted regarding these issues, they've been incredibly helpful in helping us try to get them resolved.

    Harry

    Does this mean the South American newgen issue will be resolved even if they are not selected as one of the user's active leagues? At the moment in my save I have had zero from South America since the first season. Players from that region only appear from clubs in active leagues.
