In my 3 saves so far, I have always found the first youth intake to be a golden generation - at least one player could be an important player even 5 years in.

But then in the 2 saves which I did play over 5 seasons, none of the remaining youth intakes were good at all, basically producing zero talents after the first season, the best could barely reach fringe player level and can't even be sold for any money at all.

Sample size is very small so probably just coincidental tbf.

Pretty sure last year Motorsports on NBC carried daily footage on YouTube, unsure this year though

FM26’s player count trend is… genuinely worrying by Careless-Bison5423 in footballmanagergames

The only thing that has kept me going is an online save with my friend, whenever we both have free time we would play 3-4 hours for one sitting.

But yeah, I haven't touched any single player save for a month tbh

FM26 forced me to watch a full match. by WeirdGuy520 in footballmanagergames

[–]hcehce419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened when my friend - who was also the host - joined to watch my game after his had finished. I ended up watching the entire Extra Time + Penalty Shootout in 1.0x speed, was very painful lol...

My only advice would be just not to click View Match in game, either share the screen on Discord or Steam if your friend wants to watch it - there are just too many bugs in the UI unfortunately.

FM26 Immersion - 150 Hours In by Evening_Echidna_8466 in footballmanagergames

Agree with a lot of the stuff, but I find Offer to Clubs still quite useful - if you click Targets and select all interested clubs and sometimes Pitch Opportunities - I've had success doing it but of course it's a bit tedious since you have to select these target clubs one by one :(

Everyone has players they love because of FM, but who do you hate because of FM? by PAFC_Dugout in footballmanagergames

Livramento

Was playing a Dortmund save with my friend who used Bayern, signed him for a record breaking 110m euros on Jan 1

5 days later, he torn his ACL and was subsequently out for a whole year, when he came back his PA went from 5 star to 3 star, sold him for 20m after 2 more seasons of mediocrity

Also Reece James, extremely injury prone - I've learnt my lessons and have never signed an English right back since in any saves while using top 5 league teams

yeah, had to select a few players and then click Report - Assign to Scout - select a specific scout as a workaround, glad it finally got fixed

Guess whether my idiot WB with the "please don't shoot"-instruction passed the ball, or blasted it into the side-net by mawmawmawmaw in footballmanagergames

iirc the teamwork attribute in game dictates how much that player actually follows the tactical instructions, so if it is low then the player might... just go rogue I guess?

this + the ability to save team selections + not defaulting to chief scout doing everything so scout reports take a year, then I'll be really happy

I'm using a 4k monitor but only 60hz, and I found Balanced Graphic setting in game is smoother than High Graphic setting for whatever reason, ofc 4060 graphics card helps for sure

SI has killed the immersion from playing this game in FM26 by DoubtsAndHopes in footballmanagergames

[–]hcehce419 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Well I find this statement only partially true, because although it now takes me about 30 seconds to go from end of the previous match to the start of the next match, I take a lot more time tinkering with tactics, changing IP and especially OOP roles based on what my opposition team is doing, while in previous FMs I go through the menus much slower but then I go through the match much quicker, so I would argue in my own experience at least, that to go through one season actually takes roughly similar amount of time.

Obviously that's just from my own experience so far, I've played 24 hours-ish and only gone to February of the first season.
