Good thing we're having SG for FM... personally I like the Soccergaming United name...
I also like the new system for ability and for the stats but I'm not so sure about the money... I don't know about others (since it's basically only me who posted at the old SGU thread for Cm03/04) but I don't sign other players even if I have a billion pounds so a bigger budget would help keeping the most promising players at the club...
Something else... I believe some people here on the boards already have their "player" on the game due to the picture contest promoted by SI/SEGA... would that cause any problems?

meh not really, youd just have two Ruud van kasterens running around... a horrid thought really :p

TROD.

I was just testing that. I don't think so, but as new users with the name of one of the face-in-the-game people get the corresponding pic by default. Just checking...

The main problem with earlier versions though, was that they were too easy. I'm finding this problem again now. If someone is 25 (ie. me), he'll have to get a high current to correspond to his potential. so "if" I have -9 potential, I have to get 160 current as well, pretty good for league 2 (Div 3, remember) :S

We'd better start in the Championship, that would increase the difficulty, while keeping the ability problem low.

Of course, there's not so many ancient people like me here (right, Alex? :p), so it would only affect a couple of players.

Seeing as Ruud just posts crap on the boards (especially the FM boards) it'd be hard to tell which is the real one as his stats would be just like those of a crappy regen:rolleyes:

Click to expand...

True that... ideally I'd like it to be challenging enough in a low league but with the players growing up to be champions league quality... maybe start everyone as 16 yrs old? or would it be impossible even then?

It would be possible. I could just start everyone at 0 current. Totally random.
But stamina problems do arise then. And you can still only sub 3 times.

Plus everyone below 17 has unprotected contracts...

i dont think we should have anyone under 17 personally.

By the way Ruud, i have sneaky feeling i wont be able to use it, cos of my consantly updating beta patches :kader: which is rather annoying

TROD.

I don't think so either, takes away a lot of the personality.

Why couldn't you use it? Doesn't SI want to know if unofficial updates mess up the new patch? :p

Stamina would be an issue but it can be overcome by rotating and stuff... unprotected contracts are a bit worse though... is 17 the minimum? would it make it too little time for the players to fully evolve?
Depending on how many people we get we could make a future transfer system (or am I getting too crazy?)... like we have the casual posters and others at the start of the game, get the big posters at the end of the first season and the stars (1st category) at the end of the second season.. until then, have them playing at some minor clubs or their fav club and give SG lots of money to bring them after a while... unfortunately it'd mean some people wouldn't see them in the game at the start... (but they can't really complain as they're gonna be the stars of the game?)

no i dont agree with that idea, it would be too hard to do and probably wouldnt work in most instances. No i think cos you're only editing the DB then the patches might not effect it :rockman:

I think the limit should be 17

TROD.

Out of the question. Everyone should start at SG Utd.

I just got a £275k transfer budget from Lior...

In related bad news:


That sucks :(

I have another idea: give boosted stats out according to the group.

1: 4 stats
2: 3 stats
3: 2 stats
4: 1 stat at 15 at the start.

15 might be too low for the likes of me, though, it wouldn't get noticed in the huge amounts of excellent stats I get :kader:

yeah bad idea... forget it... anyways... stats way too good, maybe a english championship start would be easy as well... euro qualification would be minimum for a team with stats like these...

It's only 2 or 3 players that will be this good from the beginning though... most guys here are 14-18.

Let me look at an 18 year old.

Well, here's a random 18 year old (well 17 at the start of the game)...



Not bad, I gave him 0 current, and he got 117 :( Might set it at 80 or 90.

Physical is out of this universe though...

also one of the additions to FM is the fact that physical stats do indeed get better with age more (they did it a little bit on 0304 but not as much as FM)

anyway how you get my bday? lol

TROD.
