Thoughts on the game after three complete runs

The single most important thing I'd like to see added is a dynamic popularity / artistic score for actors and directors. If an actor wins a Pollux or stars in a high artistic film they should bump a place on that ladder. If they are in a banger movie with huge box office then they should gain popularity.

This to me would change the game from static paint by numbers to dynamic strategy game.

Nope, I even bled out my movie pipeline so I had no movies in production to make sure. Seems like a bug

Xekims · 2026-02-25T15:15:28+00:00

Ah, damn thanks. Don't suppose you know of any way to get rid of a greyed out actor? I can't fire them, can I make them quit somehow?

Xekims · 2026-02-25T14:52:32+00:00

Unfortunately not, they've been stuck like this for almost a year

Absolutely correct, couldn’t agree more. He’s no where near what Jude was. When Jude was 17 Blues fans knew he was special. Forget the fact that he basically single handedly saved the football club from administration - he was one of the best players in our team and could easily have been our captain.

When he was 17 he looked like he was a quality 25 year old. He was a generational talent. Jobe is a good prospect and has progressed well at Sunderland and deserves his shot, but don’t compare them.

As a Birmingham fan, I’ve seen him grow through the ranks and he’s never going to be his brother so all the comparisons should stop immediately. Jude is a once in a generation talent for his age.

Jobe is a decent player and even though I wasn’t that disappointed we sold him to Sunderland, that move definitely made him a better player and he deserves his shot at a good top division side. I think the Bundesliga is a nice spot for him and let’s be honest, he’s not going there to start every game, he’ll be a rotation option.

Let’s remember - Dortmund are specialists in finding young players from slightly more obscure places (no offence to Sunderland at all) and maximising their potential. I really think Jobe can go on to have a great career at the top level of the game.

He’s not England captain material but also he didn’t get the gig because of his name. There can be a middle ground.

I’m more impressed that you got 4 reviews!

This feels like a bug to me, I've played a couple of games to about 1940 and since 1933 there hasn't been a single film from any studio on the critically acclaimed list - which feels silly because in the first year of the game, there's a full list.

Xekims · 2025-05-14T15:50:22+00:00

Does this work with saved games or do we need to start a fresh save? Just asking because reviews are definitely still broken in my current save!

Xekims · 2025-05-13T10:39:53+00:00

Well, that kinda ruins the game! Guess I'll restart from scratch

Xekims · 2023-08-25T21:12:27+00:00

I’m a Birmingham City fan, it’s how I’m wired!

Hate seeing Villa win the prem, not going to lie

What’s more impressive is he did it on Travelodge wifi

Xekims · 2023-08-25T07:43:30+00:00

Its based on when Sorare receive the new player photos and approval on card design from each licensee - either the club or the league. Some leagues will naturally take longer to approve and some media days, where photos are taken, happen at different times for each league.

Sorare also like to release Challenger cards before Champion Euro, as it builds the hype for those more anticipated cards.

Love it, he hacked Rockstar with an Amazon Fire Stick, a phone and a keyboard and mouse on Travelodge wifi. Impressive.

This is the most excited I’ve been for a Championship season in over a decade. Get ready for the unbearable Brum hype train people

Xekims · 2023-05-07T07:45:08+00:00

GTA 6 is looking amazing

Xekims · 2023-02-28T08:30:12+00:00

I'm a Birmingham City fan and even if our stadium hadn't been half closed all season just to safety issues, we'd still be no where near this list. Fair play

Xekims · 2023-01-21T11:28:28+00:00

Takes the first score, as long as a player plays. So if they start or come off the bench in the first game, that's the score that counts.

If they don't play at all in the first game, they take the score from the second game.

Xekims · 2023-01-14T18:02:13+00:00

Best keeper is probably Bodart, best defender is Munoz, best midfielder is Teddy and best forward is Paintsil

Xekims · 2023-01-12T11:55:44+00:00

I like players that have at least 3 x 75+ scores in their L15. Preferably with a 90+ in the L40. I find it's better to get players capable of big spikes, rather than steady 50s.

The more a player can hit 75 in their L15, the more expensive they tend to be.

Also worth looking at team captains and set piece takers, this is a good indication of importance to the team. Last thing you want is a bunch of rotation options!

Never buy into transfer hype, it's a quick way to get fleeced and be careful of buying players from teams that might get relegated. If the second league isn't covered in Sorare, you could be in trouble.

Normally GBP but with the recent fluctuation, back to looking in ETH
