laughable this is a setting and not just core functionality, and its just so typically indicative of this UI that there are so many clicks to turn it on.

Would be interesting if you are able to share how you go about assigning attributes and then calibrating them

Re the Saints data, I only played it for a season under beta but all seemed logical to me. If I had a gripe it’s the PA for Dibling, I think it’s maybe a touch high as I think he’ll end up being one of footballs what could have been players

Scan read it as our Damien 😀

following posted on Reddit, the first bit about just skipping through to matches is probably my biggest gripe with the game. They’ve somehow managed to destroy all the immersion that made it such a wonderful game to play. “ Just now, the biggest Football Manager streamer in South Korea someone who usually pulls between 10,000 to 40,000 viewers every time he plays FM has officially quit FM26. He mentioned that SI had sponsored him, so he started a 3-season playthrough out of courtesy. Honestly, he said he wanted to stop after the first season but felt obliged to continue because of the sponsorship. Despite the deal, his review was brutally honest: “Whether it’s checking records or looking at other clubs, I just don’t feel like doing anything. I end up just skipping straight to the matches.” “FM is a text-based game, but now reading the text feels stressful. That’s the biggest problem.” “The in-game graphics have improved a lot, but the match engine still feels disappointing.” “If you just want to watch matches, you might as well play the FC series. There’s no reason to play FM anymore.” “I have a lot more to say, but since this is a sponsored stream, I’ll stop here.” “Lastly… don’t bother sponsoring next time just make FM27 a good game.” And with that, he ended the stream. It’s safe to say he won’t be launching FM26 again.” https://www.reddit.com/r/footballmanagergames/s/uOEOILovgq

Was one of my top scorers in Beta save 😀

yes i am. Nah, feck em...i'm not their free tester, they should have found all this in QA

Game breaker for me just hit...In March of first season, get to a match day, the tactic is all corrupted with only three players showing on the graphic, i select a team but it wont let me go to the match because it says i have not selected a GK. Closed/Reloaded Gone back a save point and get to same game to same issue. 10/10 release.

Surely after today there’s no chance they would appoint O’Neil. Matches Fanbase would be toxic before the ink on the contract dries.

Another night of game play and another bug, this time one that breaks LLM playability. I have 208k players loaded in a DB setup with every league in the game either playable or on view with every top league int he game playable. Then in addition i customised the the player load by including every player of english or welsh nationality. Get into the save, go to the player database search and even with World Scouting package (another issue as why the hell can i select that as a village team in Wales) the database returns 0 players who are unattached. Running the patch on a new save. The release just goes from shit to shitter.

okay, i'm now officially in the get rid space... i've tried to back this lad hoping one day it clicks and he comes good, but hes just so sunday league.

This could be the end of the franchise as we know it, heads will have to roll for the incompetence. Womens football is borked....there is a huge injury bug thats killing the game with 2 thirds of squads getting long term injuries in training.

Just as long as they play a back 4 and a couple of wingers I’m good.

Not being sacked tonight is another example of poor management from the ownership. He’s clearly done

Last time it was this wet Leicester put 9 past us.

7 defensive out field players in a must win home fixture. The cowardice continues pissing down, gonna get soaked on walk back to the car, should have just stayed home.

Any advances on sacked by 6:30pm

The inbox now plays no function in the game, you can completely ignore it and just let the hundreds of unread messages pile up. the training module seems to be an after thought too many clicks to get to a players contact/transfer details can’t save scouting filters in match game speeds either too fast or too slow, there is a 1.5 step missing. I’ve gone back to using 24 until the modding community have had the time to fix the abomination the base game is. there’s just a few off the cuff. only a complete fanboy stooge calls this release any other than a disaster. edit: I also forgot the biggest issue I’ve encountered. In winning the championship I got 20 goals out of both Downes and Archer 🤣🤣

That’s going to be a very long list. It’s quite clear they are turning backs on their legacy base in the hunt for new customers who use a controller through console or Netflix services. The UI is a textbook case of form over function. It’s pretty, but it’s broken. For a game where the interface is the gameplay, this overhaul feels rushed, untested, and hostile to long-time players. not really new though, generally every year the community quickly develops far superior UI Skins than the trash the designers at SI seem capable of.

Quite simply the biggest pile of junk they've ever put out. this UI is just awful

Seen this gig before, allegedly he’s spoken to family about loneliness and not liking the north west.

For as long as my lad wants to go i will be there, its that simple for me really. Would prefer to swap season ticket money out to Bath Rugby to be honest.

Surely hes gone tomorrow. should not have made it back to the bus with the team last night.

Give Roy Keane a call, at least then we will have a manager that will tell these how shit they are
