Gee_Simpson Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 I done a poll a couple of years back to see whether people enabled attribute masking or not. This time it's a poll for first window budgets when starting a new save. Do you allow them (yes) or not? (no). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
upthetoon Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 No. Its more realistic this way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I allow them, any realism vanishes the moment you press a button. I'd rather not go 6 months of the season with one dreadful goalkeeper because that's what my inept club manager decided to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner86 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 It's useful to have when one of your players picks up a long term injury in pre-season too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarrantino Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 No because that’s how the squads are as of 1st September when all the windows are closed. You get an injury it’s just like real life you have to deal with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you refuse to play January signings until the date they signed on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPompey Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Most researchers will have adjusted the first window budget in terms of available transfer budget based upon player purchase / player wages made up until the window closes The option is available so its simply up to the realism level you want to play with at the start Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlatanera Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I tend not to have them on, as I like to have at least 6 months, if not a full season with the original squad so I can see what I can get out of them. If I know the team really well though I'll tend to play with them enabled - for example every year I have a Man Utd save and I'm a supporter so I know their squad really well, so there's no point waiting around to slog through a season with the current crop of abysmal defenders like in real life when I can get rid of the Smalling-Jones Unsackable Complex immediately.

autohoratio Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I leave it enabled, but I'd like an intermediate option of, say, 1 transfer in and 1 transfer out per club so that you don't get the inevitable PSG splurging €150m at the beginning of every save but it still allows you to bring in a player if your squad is too thin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
