  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ธ.ค. 2019
  • Everyone has an idea, their 'best' way to set up your FM save, but how much has it been tested? What amount of transfers, kinds of youth intakes, and competition sustainability do you get with different kinds of starts?
    Now, we know! We tested the most common ways of setting up a save, then rated each of them in different categories to determine the best way to set up a save for any CPU capacity.
    Enjoy, my fellow FM addicts. See you on Twitch?

    I've been playing until 2074 once. My longest save. Managed Reading, Sigma Olomouc and then enjoyed great success after loooooong time with Huddersfield, then moved on to Freiburg where I ended.
    Trophies: 6× UCL (5 Huddersfield, 1 Freiburg), 6 PL titles, 3 Bundesliga titles, 1 Championship with Huddersfield, 1 Czech Cup with Sigma, multiple cups in England (I don't remember how many, but It's been a lot)

    I started unemployed with no badges, and loaded in most European leagues. I got a job with Swedish Division 2 side Osterlen FF, with the task of escaping relegation. I managed to take them from 14th on 11 points to finishing 10th on 32 points. During that first season of mine, Arsenal won the EPL by a single point on the final day, Spurs came in second and City, who went into the final day leading, slipped to third place. England's top 6 were separated by no more than 2 points each.

    I usually make all the big European leagues + Belgium, Portugal and the Netherlands playable and leave it at that. Now I've started to make the Brazilian and Argentinian highest division playable, but I think I will add Mexico, Japan, USA and maybe some scandinavian countries playable or view only. My laptop can certainly handle it.

  • @sergeysvirsa3993

    Hey Zealand what do you think about adding/deleting leagues after few years into the save? There's a rumour I heard that adding/deleting leagues this way can possibly crash your save at some point. I have a journeyman save and loaded a lot of playable leagues so at the beginnig I could find a job easier but now after ten years into the future I can clearly see the leagues I won't manage in so... is it safe to delete them?

    What about player development?
    I've heard that youngsters won't develop as fast playing in view-only leagues. If that's true, then these view-only options wouldn't be so good if you're planning on buying and then loaning a lot of younger players.

    So I have a save right now that I’m happy with, but I’m concerned I’m only getting newgens from the major European countries and South America. Can I (or would their be any benefit to) change the database in this current save to add more depth a few years down the road.
    Also, I see very few newgens from African countries. Seems a bit odd.
