Am I misunderstanding something here? On my stats panel, under 'CCC' (Clear Cut Chances Created), I have a total of seven chances across all my players. Yet in the final match stats my team has only apparently created four clear cut chances? Either I'm misunderstanding something here or the game isn't collecting data correctly - which is a very big deal on a game which relies so, so heavily on statistics...

34 goals on a 5-game matchday seems pretty mad, pretty much averaging 7 goals a game. Feel like this could still do with some tweaking.

Very quickly getting very tired of dominating every game (15+ shots), scoring one or two, whilst the opposition have one shot and one goal. It seems every opponent is just stupidly clinical on this version.

Scorelines like this are still a bit too common imo. Only a few months into the season and have had a few of these.

Credit it where it's due, new patch is an immeasurable improvement given the shambolic state of the game before. However, and I sound like a broken record given I've been asking for this for the best part of the last half decade, please please please fix the inordinate amount of woodwork hits. I'm getting between 3-6 woodwork hits in consecutive games, it's just utterly insane.

JFL teams all have incorrect names. Reinmeer is Reinberg for example, Honda is Haneda. Is there a reason/fix for this?

Nitpicking but as I Saints fan I have point out this is incorrect. Broja has been at Chelsea since he was 8, after spending a couple of years at Spurs. He was only at Saints for a year on loan when he was 20.

No other editor data files selected and this is what happens on the game setup screen. I can the FM24 Japan December file, but not the FM24_Japan_League (the one in this screenshot). I'm looking to load a file that goes down to JFL, not any further.

Which file is the simple one only? No matter what I select I seem to be forced to enable all the regional leagues. Also, some of the JFL teams seem to have fake names?

Was this fixed? I'm selecting the FM24_Japan_League and getting the same error

It's almost like they know they've released an (embarrassingly obviously) unfinished game which is nothing akin to the pre-release promotion and they don't want people asking awkward questions about it

Just read that a reasonably well-known editor has quit due to a disagreement with SI; on top of all the issues already this has killed FM24 for me. I play for the smaller league databases and whatever the disagreement was has upset this person enough to make them not want to support the company. It's been said multiple times, as recently as on this very page, but SI's leadership and goals with the series have to be called into question at this point. It really is starting to feel like a cash grab ala EA with FIFA, and in the process alienating players who have loved the game for years - and worse, people who have poured their heart and soul into the game to make it so much better.

Which division & country?

I abandoned my save in the beta as I got promoted (at a canter) from the J3 league despite avoiding relegation on the final day the year before (joined 21 games into the season). It was honestly incredibly difficult to not win. Just felt so unrealistic given I had one of the worst squads in the league as well.

Sounds like a reputation issue, and you're far from the first person to report this kind of thing happening. My FM hot take is that the 'reputation' system holds the entire game back massively. I'm not a coder and I don't have an alternative way of having AI distinguish what decisions to make, so I understand why reputation is a thing, but you see players like Rico Lewis, who in real life are getting decent, consistent and meaningful game time under the best manager in the world get ragdolled about on loan for years before ending up in relative obscurity. It's the same reason why AI international management and awards are so, so bad and not reflective of in-game form or ratings, because the AI selects these players based on their reputation alone. I'm not holding my breath but I hope reputation is severely nerfed in FM25's reboot, as it's probably the single biggest under-the-hood immersion killer for me just because the AI relies on it so rigidly.
