Hi, I'm not sure why, but after couple of weeks (in-game of course) the problem disappeared. So I think you can close this thread Thank you for your reply anyway.

Hi after 18.3.3 hotfix, I've got a problem with in-game editor: after clicking "edit player attributes" instead of "General view" (with CA, PA etc.) I see "Positions" screen. Is there any way to make it as it was before?

I wouldn't buy this game if I were you. SI ignored all issues raised by users and decided not to make ANY improvements of ME in 18.3 update. That's why FM18 is unfinished product, with ME which could be acceptable maybe in beta version but definitely not after last patch. Stay away and wait for FM 19 (however i'm not very optimistic about next version)...

Sorry, I do not want to be rude, but it looks like you didn't made any significant improvements in the game with 18.3 patch (especially in comparison to previous versions). You left ME on a level which would be just fine for beta version - not for a final product. You (SI team) keep ignoring questions from people who paid money for the game. And now this? Really? Is this the only thing you're able to write after so many complaints? Is this how you feel your customers should be treated? You know how it actually sounds? "Yeah, you may be experiencing some problems, but we have no more time for fixing anything. We prefer to start working on the next version". How can I buy FM19 after you left FM18 unfinished? :/

Yeah, great. I created a separate thread where, amogst others, I've asked why SI doesn't respond to "Feedback thread" questions, and I've been told to use... "Feedback thread" to ask I'll give it a try, so once again:

Hi, I'm long time fan of CM/FM series. I bought all the versions since CM3 and I always thought that this forum is a good platform to contact the people from SI Games. But since FM 17 I've noticed that SI is simply ignoring some of the requests, suggestions and questions from the users. What is happening after 18.3.0 patch, looks like totally disrespecting the people who bought the game. I don't believe that SI team is so busy, that they can't find few minutes to answer the questions in "official feedback thread". A lot of users were asking about changes in ME - if there are any or not. Is it so hard to answer "yes" or "no"? Some mods gave us an answer that the only changes are mentioned in changelist. So I have the next question: there's a big "Bugs" section, there's a "Feedback Thread" etc. My question is: what for? There were so many complaints about the ME - shooting, overpowered crosses, overpowered multiple-strikers formations, clear-cut chances conversion, free kicks, crazy amount of offsides. All these issues were raised not by 2 or 3 frustrated users but by a lot of people. All these problems are pretty important for the game experience. Sometimes you even gave responses that you're "investigating this issue" etc. After all these discussions, I think that I'm not the only one who was waiting for some improvements in ME after 18.3.0 patch. And you practically changed nothing. I think it would be nice to write why you've made such decision. Like: sorry, we couldn't take your reports and complaints into consideration, because it's hard to make any changes in ME/we started working on new ME for FM19/we think that you're wrong and current ME is good enough... Anything. There are a lot of people who are hugely disappointed from the lack of improvements, they made it clear in various threads on this forum and it's four days since the update and you keep being silent. It is not how the users were used to be treated in previous years. Of course it is your game, you decide how you're developing it, how much do you care about the users suggestions etc. But what problem do you have with making things clear? I don't know if you respond, but I'd really appreciate if you do. Cheers.

Yes. This is the last patch I guess. As I wrote before - huge disappointment. One of the worst ME's in last years was left without any improvements.

Yes, there's a final patch for FM 18, but it's practically transfer update only. It doesn't change anything important.

Yeah, just as I thought. Huge disappointment - not only from the ME not being improved but also from SI not being able to confess and explain

Sorry, but these are minor changes and they have nothing to do with the issues reported in the bugs section during last months. SI should simply answer the question if there were any meaningful changes in ME (any other than these in the changelist) - long shots, overpowered crosses, overpowered 3-striker formations etc. - all the things, people were complaining about. I really don't know why people like @Neil Brock are coming here, reading all these questions and don't bother to simply end this discussion with short "yes" or "no". I think that leaving customers in confusion and ignoring their doubts is lack of respect. Or maybe they're just afraid of saying it out loud: "after so many compaints and reports, we left this pretty poor ME almost untouched"...

Maybe you'll be the first one who could simply answer the question: Are there any changes in ME after 18.3 patch (apart of these minor, irrelevant tweaks listed on the changelist). Thank you. :/

I'm afraid that the only changes in ME were these few minor things listed in the changelist. Anyway, someone from SI should answer your question to make it 100% clear...

One more question about starting the game so late (I started on 30th April 2018): what will happen with youth intake? In almost all european leagues, the regens are created in february/march. I've noticed that there are no regens in u-18/u-19 teams in my new save, so i guess it was no annual youth intake. Will they appear later (f.e. may or june) or next year?

Indeed, I deleted MLS from the list and everything's okay now. Thanks mate! Out of curiosity - why is MLS a problem?

Hi, in previous versions of Football Manager, while starting new career, it was possible to load a league like brazilian, swedish, mexican etc. and set the date of the start for january or february. Now i can't do it anymore - when I try, the later date (f.e. february 2018) is unavailable. Is there any way to get around?
