  1. FM20 was the first ever series that I can recall SI releasing two post January updates for, hence my question asking if the same will happen again this year? 

    The first of those updates was the 'January Update' (20.3.0), which was released on 20/02 and the second was the 'Winter Update' (20.4.0), which was released early March.

    This was a strategy which was most welcomed, myself included.

    Hey
    Tricky to say. I think, basically, you're not into the new season yet if you are still in May or early June (fixtures are generated in late June)....  by then, new fixtures won't be out yet, you won't be in pre-season yet, so the next season is a "future season"

    To me, a save in that position would be most compatible to any change that affects future seasons
    Hope this helps!

    Thanks Tony. Well I'm in late June now and pre-season has already started, although the fixtures are due for release the following day. It's worth noting that I've already had the leader boards come up, which usually appear prior to the start of a new season.

    Although the fixtures have yet to be 'released' I'm guessing that I maybe screwed for the forthcoming season, on the basis that the fixtures might have already been generated within my game, so to speak, and all that is left for them to do is now appear on the schedule page. Would that be correct?

    Again, I hope that makes sense.

    We're not in a position to make specific announcements about update plans in advance, as quite often in software development things change which can make things quite difficult and problematic. Whilst we'd love to be completely transparent, doing so can sometimes lead to disappointment and misunderstanding. 

    Saying that, we have followed similar patterns to updating in the past on older FM's and, as you may have noticed on the bugs forum, we have said we are aiming to address some specific issues as soon as we possibly can. 

    Hi Neil,

    Thanks for the reply. However, I was referring more to the data update side of things. Last year you released two updates post January, one being titled 'January Update' (20.3.0) and the second 'Winter Update' (20.4.0).

    Will you be taking a similar approach this year, purely from a data update perspective, so two post January data updates again, rather than just one, as was always the case in years prior to the last?

    Many thanks

    Hey, I'll do my best, it's still in play! So....

    Since FM usually sets competitions in stone when you begin a save... Just based on how FM works I think it's far more likely we can only do something to sort future seasons out. 

    I mean, I'm sorry for this issue, and not just because I have to take my team to Anfield twice a season :D We're doing what we can though. 

    Hi Tony,

    Thanks again for the update, I really do appreciate it. Last one from me...... the last point at which I have saved is the night before the new fixtures are due to be released. Will that mean that any possible fix applies to those fixtures or will the fact that I am so close to them being released mean that the fix won't take affect until the following season?

    I hope that makes sense and that again, you are able to provide me with an answer for this?! 

    Man thanks

    Hi Tony,

     

    Thanks for taking the time to provide an update. If a fix were possible, would you please be able to confirm at this point, whether or not the fix will reverse fixtures for the current season fixture list immediately or will you have to wait until the following seasons fixtures to be released, for this to take effect?

    Many thanks

    Tony,

    Sorry to chase, but if you could please provide some clarity on my last message, that would be greatly appreciated, assuming of course that you are able to do so?

    Many thanks

    Hey,

    We're looking into this, we do know it's still happening... Can't promise anything yet, but we are certainly looking at what we can do with existing saves, it's actually more about that aspect than anything else. Seeing as it doesn't affect new saves anymore

    Sorry for the delay, Xmas break and all - we're right back on it. I'll update the thread again when I can :)

  7. Thanks for the reply Wolf. Fully aware that you can do what you have suggested, I'm still just curious if you can do what I asked in my original question, through use of the in-game editor?

    I'm hoping that someone can confirm this for me, one way or the other, as I don't want to purchase it before somebody has done so?

  8. A quick query with regards to the in-game editor, for those that have it or have used it previously.

    Is it possible to make yourself the manager of any club, in any league that you have loaded, at anytime? For example, if I were to start as unemployed and then decided that I wanted to take over at a particular club in say October of that season, is it possible to do that?

    If so, do you then receive all the introductory e-mails, after installing yourself as manager of that club, as you normally do when selecting a club at the start of a save?
