i dont want to opet another thread. but i get more unusual player concerns. I get player who is telling he wants to consider leaving on free after his contract expires. He is 2 years at a club, having one more year. He is rgular starter, only 24 years old, and no one is currently interested in him, no offers came in for him, and i didnt declined offers to give him reason to leave on free. Very very odd player behaviours this year

unfortunately no, i dont have the file. Actually i never had conversation with player asking to leave. never have i ever had message about his unhapiness. It is when i realized he doesnt have much time left, and decided to offer him new contract, that i got info that he doesnt want to renew. This was like 7-8 months after he was brought to game trough youth intake.

same here, i have around 15 newgens that are named Dion Drena. Simply imposible

Uploaded, save file is named: Drago Grabovac - Dinamo.fm

Hmm, never noticed that feature. Tried it and fixed it, atleast for me. Thanks for tip

same thing here. But i believe it is not a bug, it is real world feature. Players probably signed contract IRL on specific date, and in game it just get confirmed on that date. Go to player contract info, and if it says he already agreed on new contract on x/x/2023, then go check if that message appears in your news feed on that specific x/x/2023.

in my case, when searching only expired contracts, everything is fine. when adding another condition, example ST (so search is now expired contracts + ST position) i got shown strikers with club, and all position players without club. The same happens when searching for 2 parameters, it gots mixed up. If searching for one parametar/condition everything is fine, but mixing them doesnt filter players, just add both search parameters

I understand the changes, but i got confused with info about changing club said differently. In FM 23 (and every before), on attributes screen, under player status it said 'joins club x on loan at 1/1/2024', and now it just says 'joins club x at 1/1/2024' (no loan mentioned). So not sure if it is how it will look this year, or if it is 'bug' and they didn't notice that issue.

for me also, but when searching for expired contract players, it shows ones that are atill on contracts

actually, on transfer page of club it states he is going on loan. Got confused because it usually states on his attributes page, under his name and pic, that he is joining club either on loan or perm. In this case it just states joins club. It is with all players, not sure if bug, or different feature in this years edition. Sorry for two posts. Pls just let me know if it is bug, and it should say wether he joins perm or loan; or if it is feature. Thanks.

sorry, this is proof https://www.transfermarkt.com/sandro-kulenovic/profil/spieler/357778

Does that means that as some league increaces in popularity and rises up in euro coef, that they will attract more sponsors and tv rights money? If you take 20th league and it rises to be in top5 league, you still get the same amount of money, which is ridiciluos. I really hope that it means it will be better now. Game is completely ruined for smaller league long-term saves. Tha same is with sponsors, i really hope that if you bring your small time club to be team with highest reputation in the world, their sponsors income will increase significantly, and not just from 1,5mil to 2,5mil. Cant wait for new FM

love the idea. hate when i have to go to each U-team to see staff. same goes with training and coach assigments

Hello dear developers, and FM fanatics. I would like to get some feedback from both sides before closing topic I think there could be different ability change in players. Currently, we have CA/PA based attributes. And they grow linear, like +1 every year. Ofc if it is wonderkid and everything about his development is great. And that is about it. you know how his development is going and how long it is going to take for him to become world class player. And it is quite boring and not realistic. There should be periods where one player can develop much more in single year. As in reality, and as Fm change it attributes in real life. Let me explain more. We, the FM fanatics, are eager to play new FM each year because of new players and new attributes changes of players from year before. And that is the best thing about new FM, more interesting than 5-10 small changes in gameplay. There are thousand of examples of players drastically changing in FM in one year time. Because they actually changed drastically in real life. For instance, you can take Halaand, Kvaratschelia, Alvarez. Gvardiol, Darwin Nunez and all top wonderkids in the game. Here is example to understand better: Here is Kvaratskhelia in Fm22 and here is him in FM 23 Ofcourse, there is scouting to consider, but player actually changed drastically when arrived to Napoli and begun to play at much higher level than before. If it was normal Fm CA/PA ability he would never achieve that, and it would need him to be 15yo in first pic and 28 in second to get that much change. Now, i think you understand what i am saying. There should be some exponential growth of players, not just linear like now. It doesnt need to change CA/PA system, it just need to be able to change much more CA in period on one year. And it should be based on several things such as: level of play (league he plays in) training (both facilities and coaches) amount of play (more he plays, more he develops) outside influence (either from you, the manager, other players, mentor, idols or interaction with him) I know this things are responsible for development already, and that wonderkid wont develop the same in league 2 club and in premiership club, but there must be much much faster rate of development once he comes to better league, coaches, facilities. Another point of my point: we know Halaand is in top3 attackers in the world, bot in real life and FM, and there was massive changes when he arrived in Salzburg, and then in Dortmund. In course of 18 months he came from playing Molde (was only big talent then), to playing in dortmund and being one of best attackers in the world. And noone can say that he developed the same in period when he was playing for Molde, and now when he plays for Man City. His most change was when he was playing in Salzburg and first half of career in Dortmund. Later he became slightly better, and would probably still improve, but not as much. to put it in CA/PA numbers, i would say (my guess ) that his CA were like this: 2016 Byrne 80 2017 Molde 85 2018 Molde 90 2019 Molde 95 2019 Salzburg 115 2020 Salzburg 140 2020 Dortmund 170 2021 Dortmund 185 2022 Dortmund 190 2023 Man City 195 There is no way that newgen would develop in FM with PA of 195, he would have to have CA 130 (15yo) to reach CA 195 (23yo), and only playing at highest level from the age of 15. If you were to bring newgen with CA 95 at the age of 19, there is no way you could ever develop him to CA of 195 in 2 years. Ofcourse, there should be more drastic decline in attributes for players in higher age. and with weaker determination. Player should also be able to drop from 195 to 130 CA in 18 months time to make it realistic. In the end, i now this was quite boring and repetitive post, but i wanted to show my idea properly. Again, one of the best part of new FMs are new attributes of players that boomed in real life since last FM release. And current rate of developing newgen wonderkid is boring (you buy them young, have best facilities and coaches, play him maximum, loan him at best clubs, and yet you have to wait 5-6 years to develop to a decent level). Hope you understand me, and i hope i'll get some feedback from comunnity, both positive and negative ones. Thanks you!

i know there have been similar request, and usually they are denied, but obviously people want them. reason why they are turned down is (as developers say) it is not realistic for manager to be involved in that area of club. But how so that managers can choose affiliate clubs, and type of affiliates, since they can be only for financial and marketing purposes. how it is realistic for manager to choose, fire and hire staff like DOF and HOYD since it is policy of club and matters of board and not manager. How so that managers can request higher salaries for staff since it is boards matter and not managers. so please dont tell me these feature request are not realistic since a lot of things of similar matters are not realistic request fan day - match day - it usually hapens with clubs that are not fulfilling their capacity, but it happens randomly, and against smaller clubs. -there should be option to request it to boost attendance and gain more fans - upon request (if board trust you enough) you should be able to select game you wish to be fan day; but with some extra info. You should get list of games to select (like searching for affiliate), and there should be some stats with it - expected attendance without fan day, and one one with fan day. - you can choose type of fan day, such as: tickets are 10%-30% of regular price 1+1 ticket get child u15 for free bundle tickets - example - first game is against weaker oponnent, and second game is some rival match. if you buy ticket for first game (weaker oponnent) you get free ticket for derby game, or you get at least 50% discount to rival game ticket price (seen this type of promotion in real life) - there are pros and cons for selecting weaker oponnent or rival - for easier visual representation lets say stadium capacity is 100k seats, with average att around 20k, and max around 70k if you choose to promote against weaker club you can get extra 10-20% capacity for that game - totaling 30-40k attendance (extra 10k-20k for that game) if you choose to promote against weaker club you can get 3-5% increase in other games - totaling 23k-25k average attendance if you choose to promote against rival club you can easily get 100% attendance for that game - totaling 100k att (extra 30k for that game) if you choose to promote against rival club you can gain 8-12% increase in other games - totaling 28k-32k average attendance if you choose to promote against weaker club you get only profit, but smaller one if you choose to promote against rival club you loose money on that specific game (since you already had 70k att), but gain more money on other game -these are just out of head numbers, and it is just for examples, but i guess you see where this feature request is going request ticket price change -as you can request for improving facilities, increasing staff wages, and hiring/firing all staff; you should be able to request another club matter - ticket prices and changes in revenue and attendances accordingly -this can be done similar to request for affiliate,with different versions: you ask, board agrees and makes decisions on its own you ask, board agrees and asks you if you want to take part in it - in either case it takes around month to get to decisions (since it takes some study and market research for it) -no matter what decision would be, you loose some money on researching market, because you pay some agency to do it for you. You loose around 10k-100k for that (depending on city you are in, your average attendance and region that you are in) - because you loose money, the decision to do research would be denied more often in lower leagues clubs that dont have that money to spare, but to richer clubs that shouldnt be a problem so that research would be almost every time approved -if you are taking part in decision making, you get some short results from research such as: if we increase price for x% it will result in y% decrease in att, but will result in yx% increase/decrease in revenue if we decrease price for x% it will result in y% increase in att but will result in yx% increase/decrease in revenue repeat step 1 and 2 for different percentage of changes, so you can choose form increase/decrease of 5,10,20 or 50% price -increase in price shouldnt mean that att will fall for sure, if you sold out every game, and have a lot of season ticket waiting list, you shouldnt feel a thing, only decrease in waiting list numbers. Because if you have 100k stadium, and 50k on waiting list that means you'll probably sell out every game. But if you increase price youll loose some fans wanting to attend (lets say number you loose is around 30k), but youll still sell out almost every game, but wouldnt have that waiting list anymore. Only games that youll loose attendances are irrelevant cup games against lower league clubs -if you are managing team that is rising in reputation, you should be able to increase ticket prices without loosing fans for obvious reasons. but if you are managing team that is holding its reputation (either worldwide club or e.g. accomplished premier league club), ticket price changes should reflect on attendances. And of course if you are underachieving and/or falling in reputation, it should matter alot, and basically you/ll have to decrease prices to keep your seats full -request should be able to me made both for single game tickets, and season tickets more involvement in build new/expand stadium -if you get your board to expand or build new stadium, you should get option to consult with them of your opinion of capacity/roofing etc -if your board decides to build/expand on their own, you should get message something like when they decide to increase wages for physios, and ask for your opinion - and like that, 80% of decisions they will make no matter what you say, unless your job security is untouchable -some options will happen: board will get you list of 3 or 4 blueprints and you can make your recommendation board will ask you and you'll interact with them just like you interact with them on job interview. They ask what should be capacity, and you choose from answers available, next they ask you if you think there should be roof etc etc until you go trough all options few weeks after you make your demands/request/recommendations trough step 2, board presents you with 2-3 options with all info (seats/roofing/grass) and their price and time to build the bigger the stadium, more time will be needed to construct, so if you choose new big stadium with 80k seats it may took 4 years to finish, so you might end up in choosing one with 50-60k seats that will take only 2 years to build (and sooner you get to use it) -much more simple is to negotiate for expansion To end all this long post, some things are same for all 3 requests above: -the longer you are in club and more the board likes you, you easily get your requests (as in request that are in the game now) -the more fans influence on board is, it is harder to get request for tickets price increase, but it is bigger change in attendances if you lower the prices. Similar with fan day and stadium requests fans influence on board should be hidden attributes (not sure it they are now) with 1-20 score, not 5 star ratings. And it should change accordingly - when changing owner (increase or decrease), when changing prices (if you lower the prices fans influence will decrease, since more casual fans will be in stadium, and vice versa - if you increase prices, less people will attend, mostly casual fans, and bigger % of hardcore fans will be in stadium and more influence they will have on board - resulting in all those request regarding fans and stadium. I hope you'll review these feature requests, and not just push it under the carpet. I hope i made it simple for everyone to understand my ideas behind all this. This is just my view of how it could be done, and all other suggestions are very welcome. Thanks!!

oh damn, didn't know that. Thanks for the answer!
