qazwsx Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Am I just lucky or is the amount of injuries scaled down in FM 2019 to the degree that they are almost non-existent? In other versions of FM I remember to have plenty of injuries in match play but also during training sessions. But not anymore. At the moment I have 48 players in the club, and in the beginning of January there are zero players injured. I have had the same "problem" in other saves. If injuries really has almost been eliminated in the game it takes away a big part of the strategy in squad building. To have depth in different positions just creates unhappy backups that will never get the chance because the first team players are always available. I would actually prefer if the level of injuries mirrored real life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dap1987 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Well, you have literally just cursed yourself, next time you turn the game on I'd expect 2 broken legs, a cruciate knee ligament and a few pulled hamstrings, all to your best players Seriously though, what team are you? if you rotate well and don't play tired players, and sub at the right times, you can avoid a lot of injuries that way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
qazwsx Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 My team is playing the 4th level of Austria. Maybe being semi-pro and not training every day has something to do with it. Or maybe I am a manager genius. Probably the latter, haha... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And given Karma, I fully epxected to, mind. And I barely managed a Thing. Injuries in General are nerfed from actual Football as, to sort of Quote Miles: "Our Players prefer it to be that way." They thus prefer thei AI Clubs invetably being with most of their key Players available during most of the Season too, but don't tell them. However, if you were to go into the Editor, and give every Player in a league high hidden Injury proneness values, the numbers would significantly rise (even above Football) across the shop.

Grifty Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I get a lot of 1-3 day injuries either after a game or randomly through training which I would say is pretty realistic. I get maybe one 1-3 month injury a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
herne79 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I currently have both my wide players and their back ups out injured with 6 games of the season left to play, when we're challenging for the league title. I think I got your share of the bad luck . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
qazwsx Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 Well... my first match after posting the text above, a friendly in the snow. Stoppage time and a pulled ankle ligament for one of my midfielders. It's getting better! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snorks Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Having never had reason to moan about injuries, always managing my fitness through rotation and planning ahead, I now find myself in 'crisis'. Four center backs in my first team squad, three of whom now have injuries of minimum four weeks. Thought I was pretty well covered, so my two 'up and coming' U23s are out on loan, and the U23 backup player is also injured for anther fortnight Raiding my U18 squad...... Fortunately, the hardest game I have coming up is Europa League vs Celtic - but a 17 yr old starter >????? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it could be worse. You could have chosen to manage United on FM 2016. (Precisely the Kind of Scenarios that I never ever have faced on this game probably ever, even without Managing much*). * I realize that bad luck can still strike though. With thousands upon thousands playing this, even the least likely scenario will occur for somebody, and actually a number of Players -- just like there are actually repeat numbers being drawn at lotterys, which isn't quite as much of a miracle as people not familiar with Maths and probability may think.

FrazT Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Users rarely remember periods when injuries are low and tend to remember the bad runs. Over a season, they will usually level out and unless you are having more that the rest of the teams in your league, you need to just run with it when it is good and do the same when it is bad.
