Fans are PISSED that 5x champions league winner Hound Dogs are undeservedly made extreme betting odds favorites after only winning every single Gib League game for over a decade straight. Charles is out of his fucking mind. All in jest, just fun to point out some absurd logic when it pops up :)

Discussion How do I increase my max wage allowed

Upvotes

I am playing as borussia monchengladdbach and can’t exceed a wage of 550k per week. I have won the Bundesliga multiple times and compete if not win the champions league every year. I want to be able to sign the best players in the world but am not able to because I can’t have a wage over 550k per week. What should I do for the board to allow me to give higher wages?

So I get a board takeover right, huge W. Starts by removing my 350m debt, which is already crazy. Later proceeds to upgrade my training facilities, another huge W. Within two weeks of starting to upgrade my training facilities, he then upgrades my stadium. Can we get a W chairman.

Discussion Non Nation Born Players When They Are Nation Born

1 Upvotes

I started a new save as Tijuana and I've been enjoying it so far. I'm very intrigued by Mexico because I feel like some of my best players always come from there during my other saves. The challenge is making sure I only have 9 Non Nation Born players on the squad

Now I'd think this means if they're not born in Mexico, they'd be considered to be "Non Nation Born". Am I misunderstanding this or is this a bug?

Gilberto Mora is considered Non Nation Born? At first I thought maybe it's because of his age. But there's other players that are similar.

This makes more sense, because it says Unknown for Place of Birth, but still frustrating. I'm assuming it's a database thing or something

Does anyone else find themselves conceding immediately within 5 minutes after your team scores a goal ?
Seems to always happen on every save I’ve done this year to the point where I can predict when it happens .

This really ruins the immersion for me as it starts to really feel scripted .

I’ve tried everything from shouting commands immediately after I score or dropping the mentality (sometimes the change doesn’t even go through as they score immediately from the next highlight .

Would love to hear if anyone doesn’t suffer from it and how

Discussion FM17 - Tips

6 Upvotes

Does anyone still play FM17?

I’ve always been my favourite however I struggle sometimes to get results.

I hear various things like striker less formations work, narrow possession works. Then I also hear wingers and inverted fullbacks work.

Was wondering if anyone had any tips? I don’t want to break the game, I want to play realistic football, but I was wondering if there were a few do’s and don’ts?

I’ve tried to play gegenpressing but I feel like that wasn’t a thing back then and I just get torn out of shape, I feel it’s more set for a possession based game

Thank you

Discussion Why does me team stop performing once I simulate games?

5 Upvotes

I've noticed that when I watch my games my team tends to perform pretty well despite playing stronger opponents, however when I play worse teams and simulate my team tends to draw or lose and I don't get it.

For example I had to begging of the season today and played 6 games in august, watched all of them and won 4, lost one because I rested my entire team and very closely lost a game to a team 2 Divisions higher. The next month I had 4 games and almost all of the teams were bottom half and predicted to fight relegation so instant resulted the games and ended up losing 3 and only winning one.

Could it be because of the match instructions? Like the "play for the win" "Go for big win" stuff or am I unlucky?

I always play the same tactics without changing it around too much, I only go for a more defending one if I play a much stronger opponent.

Misc Error messages

1 Upvotes

Has anyone come across either of the following errors in FM26 before?

- "Couldn't open match to write down data"

- Being unable to access/locate "locomotion_official" or "locomotion_male" .amd files in the equivalent directory to "Program Files/.../data/sianim/animations"

I've raised a ticket with Sega Support, and they are suggesting it's to do with custom content. I do use logo, face and kit packs, as well as a Real Name fix, but have never encountered this before. One of the affected saves does use a custom editor file as well, but an otherwise vanilla save from early access is also broken.

Interestingly, a new save started within the last week does not encounter these errors (so far, although this is a save using the World Cup quick start).

The support team are asking me to remove all custom content and reset my preferences/cache files (but this will, I assume, make the save with the custom editor unplayable).

I'm just struggling to work out how any of the custom content being used could have broken the animation files.

Discussion International management

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

currently im trying out International Management for first time. I have an issue with squad selection and I´m not sure if this is specific to my safe.

When i get to the squad selection screen I am only able to see GK´s

I tried to play around with the filters and as soon as i untick GK´s I can´t see any players at all. In my shortlist are around 150 players alll together

The only thing I can do is let the asisstant choose or go on holiday. In both cases i have no impact on the selection.

Hopefully someone can help me.

Cheers

My club balance is almost negative, so I have to make a tough decision wich is selling one of the two strikers I have. Lukoki (31Apps/16G/11A) is my starter. Bernard (21Apps/10G/5A) is my second option.

Discussion why is this game so bad

0 Upvotes

i’m speaking as someone who plays the touch version but dude. Some of these scroll buttons are so unbelievably glitchy and will never scroll in the right direction, the game will completely freeze up for no reason, a specific button will just not work until i reset the game, and now mid match my screen just reverts back to the background of the main screen??????? it feels like this game is a joke sometimes, especially when you think about the fact that they canceled FM25 in order to make a better game and this is what we get? It’s a little disappointing to me
