For a lower league stadium with 15k capacity it makes sense to build it cornerless. But imagine having Camp Nou size stands on each side with absolutely nothing in between them except office buildings and hot dog vans lol that’s hilarious and that’s what I got.

1) Please delete 4 stand stadium templates for more than 40k stadiums. This is so ridiculous it takes the whole immersiveness out of the game. We built a new 62000 stadium and it has 4 gigantic stands with a kilometer between each stand. It looks so ridiculous I just can’t “stand” it I stopped playing after 1000+ game hours. 2) If the club reputation grows the dressing room and other background graphics should also improve. They can be renovated irl. In my game we’re number one club in the world and new stadium dressing room looks no better than a local amateur club.

Haha true, point taken. But it’s still not impossible, with extremely good management such a dynasty can be created. But nobody builds a stadium like that, that’s for sure.

My understanding from the situation is; if you want a top-tier stadium with the biggest capacity, best dressing room graphics, all round, you better don’t ask your board to build a stadium unless your club rating is 5-stars. When I asked it we were I think 4 or 4,5 stars but we had won the Serie A a couple of times, we had almost a billion euros in our account, hundred thousand fans in waiting list, full capacity almost every game, so it made sense to build a new stadium anyway. Mainly to increase club rep and income. Of course I had no idea they will be so visionless and built a low-stature club stadium on steroids. My tip for other players, if you want something decent worth building, make sure you won enough CL to become 5 star club first. If not there’s no way to make it better once it’s built and you’re stuck with it 25 years. 🤷‍♂️

Well I won everything, 2 CL, 6 Serie A, 1 Europa League amony many other cups including Club World Cup with a club like Genoa. We’re number one in Europe in reputation. I feel like I beat the game. New stadium would be like an end-game reward and maybe it would inspire me to play 1-2 seasons more, but not in that ridiculous monstrosity no thanks no sir. I just can’t stand it. Because I’m the type of player who enjoys the story, drama and realism of it, this stadium took all the reality out.

I’m not sure if these idiots at my club wouldn’t built another 100k+ skyscrapper stadium without corners after 25 years. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Nope, the original stadium (Luigi Ferraris) still stands and Sampdoria keeps playing there. It’s true that the Luigi Ferraris doesn’t have seats on corners (there are walls) but I don’t think the game engine wanted to preserve legacy that way.

Thanks, will do that 👍

The looks of my newly built 62000 cornerless monstrosity stadium is hilarious imho… Imagine the disappointment. It made me quit the game.

Genoa. In my first years in management almost all the money that I earn from player sales were going to the debt payments instead of the transfer budget. I loved that challenge though. After about 6 seasons we were sitting over a billion euros in our bank account 😉

That’s all I’m hoping for atm… I hope SI will finally make improvements on the non-football side of things. I understand that it’s not the manager’s job to decide on new stadiums or expansions but at least a club legend manager would be able to make some suggestions. I learned that FMRTE allows fixing this, but I really don’t want to pay 7€ just to fix this ridiculousness. I won’t use any other feature ever. In total I worked around 5-6 seasons only for this, spent some hundreds of game time. Then I get this joke of a stadium. I’m so frustrated I’m done with this game. Here’s what I would suggest for FM24 if they read this: 1) Please delete 4 stand stadium templates for more than 40k stadiums. This is so ridiculous it takes the whole immersiveness out of the game. 2) If the club reputation grows the dressing room and other background graphics should also improve. We’re number one club in the world and new stadium dressing room looks no better than a local amateur club. These details are important and they CAN break the game as they did for me. Some other guy may not care about this at all but I know football and simulator fans they CARE about such stuff.

I’ve been managing Genoa for 9 amazing years in which I took the club from Serie B to the top of Europe. Couple of seasons back with all the CL and Serie A trophies in our museum the board listened to my pleas and agreed to build a new “modern” stadium to accomodate the current stature of the club. After years of planning and wait I was so eager to start playing in our new 48000 stadium. After winning everything there was literally no reason for me to keep playing there, all I wanted was to see that the club that I worked so hard for to play in a big modern stadium. Then I would feel like my work would be truly done. After 1,5 years in planning and 2 years of building, the new stadium was revealed… *drumroll* All I got was HALF a stadium *facepalm* Yeah, it’s one of the 4 separate gigantic stand ones. I can’t even begin to describe my disappointment. It’s so frustrating to get a monstrosity like this after spending so many ingame years, countless amount of play hours and hundreds of million euros. I looked at forums and saw many other people suffered the same fate. The new “stadium” was so ugly and ridiculous it took all the fun and immersiveness out of the game. I was frustrated, disappointed but didn’t lose entire hope. After a year the management decided to expand the stadium to 62000 capacity and I thought they will finally fill the gaps in the corners and make a normal stadium. Another year of construction wait and voila! Even bigger 4 stands with now three gigantic tiers on each of them lol I mean what?? Who in their right minds would design, approve and build something like this? Remember we’re number one club in the world now with 5 star reputation with more than a billion euros in our account with hundreds of thousands of fans in the season ticket waiting list. Yet we build a 4 stand stadium like a small local club but only making the stands gigantic. If I got something decent and round that makes any sense I wouldn’t pity the amount of hours and days I spend for this. I think once we started new stadium plans the club wasn’t this big, we didn’t win CL and our reputation was probably 4 stars. That’s maybe why we also got disgusting wooden dressing room background also, but who in their right minds would build something so ridiculous and outdated for 350 million euros in the year 2030s?? I also can’t expand the stadium any further, it’s not an option anymore so unless there’s a way to edit stadium apperance via through an editor, I quit. I don’t know how to use the editor because I don’t like using editors to achieve things but this time I’m forced because of bad game design. Any help to turn this around is greatly appreciated…
