bonus 4th wish: More effectiveness of defensive tactics and a toned down of how affective attackingg tactics are
0 -
1) better international football
2) more randomness in player development, not every player should be able to reach their potential with the right training
3) better transfer system

I raised a post last year with loads of suggestions for international management which they said they were looking at changing, no changees this year, but hopefully next year. However i'm not optimistic, look at the bug section, most of the bugs in international remain "open", they don't even get put under review. The past meetings feature hasn't worked for international teams for about 3 years now

they can go into administration and be docked points, not forcibly relegated

Any ETA on a patch? I'm mostly just waiting on editor fixes, but still.
Also, what's the chances the new AFC competition formats get added in a patch? I reported it as a bug and the response was they didn't have time to do it by launch. But any chance it'll be added in one of the future patches, or is it going to be a wait for FM25 thing (which would suck!)?
next patch is usually around xmas time

i'm loving it, now that the clauses issue and the tactical issue have been sorted, just minor bugs left. Great game

Having similar problem as already mentioned on here with the opposition managers a lot of them being wing play. Any one else having this? What other things do opposing managers actually implement in the game? Also what do they actually do for there teams? Would say the rest of the game is really good except a few slight bugs
have you updated with the latest patch? This improved a lot of the wing play issues

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.respect your opinion, but disagree entirely. SI will never be able to please everyone or fix every problem, but i feel they do a damn good job of striking the middle ground and pleasing the majority.
Big thumbs up to all those hard workers at Sports Interactive from me, I have so much sympathy with the abuse you get (not from OP just in general) on the forum

Hi everyone.
What happened to the Russian League clubs, Russia National Team and club/nation Ukraine in FM 24? Do they start the game out of european competitions but do come back at certain point? Or are they simple banned forever?
Banned forever as in real life. If the Russians ever see sense and become a civilised country FIFA/UEFA will unban them and they'll become unbanned in game. Unfortunately not likely with the current maniac in charge

I am in my 4th season(January 18th) with Manchester United and the injuries are crazy since the new patch dropped.
I had 63 injuries this season(counting all the minor injuries for a day or 2), despite having a very large squad with regular rotation(I got 2-3 players for every position).
Last season I had less than 70 all season long.
I want the game to be more challenging but this is not the way to go SI.
injuries are below real life levels, as they always have been. If anything they should be raised. If you have a large squad with 3 players for every position of course you'll see more, and counting the minor 1 or 2 day ones that number seems low even by FM standards let alone real life

definitely reduced now, only had 1 since the update. Still need the frequency of outfield player injuries increased though....

That’s what I mean going to have to start new save as the database is obviously broken
its not broken just new information, as there will be every time we get a database update, just continue with your save, the bugs will be patched out

Does anyone know how you can stop the game from automatically patching? I can't remember how to do it.
don't connect steam to the internet, why would you want to do this though?

This game is almost unplayable due to the number of duplication of sell on causes, conditional fees and installments.
I am only half way through the Premier League teams and so the following players have duplication of their transfers fees,.
Marcus Tavernier
Bruno Guimarares (an extra 15 million+)
Joao Palhinha
Jarrad Brathwaite
Michael Olise
David Raya
Frank Onyeka
Jarrod Bowen
I mention that I am only half way through the English Premier League but its across other leagues as well and I wont be surprised if its across the whole game.
Please someone tell me this has been highlighted elsewhere?
At this point I am close to requested a refunded as the game database is blatantly unfinished.
its a few minor issues, certainly doesn't make the game unplayable, clubs are both gaining and losing through this. Suspect its already being dealt with, but if you want to make sure post it in the bug forum not here

Can't be bothered to search where to post it. Did that a few years back and bugs still in the game.
SI can pick it up from here if they want...
there is a dedicated big forum, found on the home page, if its left here it won't be picked up so you are saying you don't want it resolved

researchers for the area scout you and include you. At that level they will have limited knowledge and limited focus so they will capture some players but not all. Get yourself up to a higher level and you are guarenteed to be included, but at that level its just a bit of luck, being particularly good

If you're not seeing a ridiculous amount of long shots going in at an alarming rate, then I don't know what to tell you. Keepers are playing like they're blind. I've had countless defensive midfielders with less than 10 in finishing scoring goals on me from 20 yards out. It's insane
if its just on you its your tactics, if its on you and for you then its a potential issue so put it in the bug tracker. Can't say i've seen it myself.

You are entitled to your opinion. However your opinion is wrong.
Football Manager content is very popular on Youtube.
I understand you are frustrated but to take it out on people who get the game a day before you is so silly.
I can't find a way to prove this to you but I know that sales of Football Manager have gone up year by year and that is to a degree because of content creators on Youtube and Twitch.
I'm not taking it out on them, not sure where you got that from? If i'd have posted on any of their channels absolutely you would be right but i didn't/ Relative to other games football manager engagement, viewership and watchtime is consdierably lower, so to claim its very popular is ludicrous.
On the sales i'd love to see the stats behind it because i genuinely doubt it would drive sales in the way that it would for a CoD game or rocket league, but i'm happy to be proven wrong with data.
All i've done is mention on an SI site that i think they have taken the wrong approach. I would not go to one of these youtubers and say it there which would be taking it out on them as there is no benefit. So for you to make that claim is poor curtesy on your part i believe

Some of the videoes have really few viewers considering its a highly anticipated game. Crazy
FM isn't really the sort of game that suits youtube, its never gonna be as popular on their as the likes of CoD, thats why its a real shame SI have gone down this route its hard to see how it will drive many if any sales. Though this site is the wrong place to ask that question as people here will have made their decision with or without the youtubers.
