any other suggestions? a bit of research tells me that Arbroath and Montrose are both in a place called Angus along with Forfar and Brechin who are in the next division up, and they share local rivalries with each other. is a team in Angus a comfy place to start then? I'm not entirely sure whether or not Dundee/City are in Angus either, this is weird.

>>68825135
how? Can you do that in FM15?
>>68825068
none of them wear green though, shit.
on a related note, how do I remove all of the club logos included with the game so that every team is just their default FM-rendered ones? I've been wondering this for years now.

Why on Earth would you want to do that
>>68825174
I've seen some logopack do that
wish there was a way
not sure there i anymore given how teams have different generic kits
>>68824976
Go for Abroath just for the stadium
>>68825222
But you can't do that once you've started a save?
>>68825277
And he hasn't even picked a club yet.
>>68825295
okay, fine
>>68825174
Or just manage Rangers. 4 FMs and they still haven't even reached the top tier.
>>68824976
Go for Arbroath and try and set a new record for biggest win
>>68825242
because of standardization. I'd rather remove them all than try to find logos for everyone, especially if I'm using larger LLM databases. besides, they'd look cleaner and easier to recognize that way.
>>68825271
technically all you'd need to do is generate the logos for each of the ones that already have an official logo and have that be made into a logopack that overrides the default, right? I bet if you went through the painstaking work of "cloning" each of those teams in the editor and then running FM with it, the new version of that club would have the rendered logo, not the official one.
>>68825358
I'd have to go back to FM13 I think, right? or just use the editor to bump them back down. I was trying to pick a team in division four, SL2. that would be a cool way to do it though since I wouldn't have to risk needing to team hop at all.

>>68825449
Just don't use any logopack then. Or download a Scottish one somewhere on the internet.
>>68825515
Hmmm...
How about the team that is dubbed the worst in Britain who happens to play in Scotland? I forgot their name though.

Do you think I can get him to play for Ireland in 5 years?
>>68825206
can't bring anyone that is good enough
>>68825591
the point is to break the cycle of scottish miserableness though, not succumb to it by living the authentic experience.
>>68825593
>Just don't use any logopack then. Or download a Scottish one somewhere on the internet.
no I mean, when I don't use any logopacks then the clubs in most divisions that FM already includes (except for the premier league obviously) have their authentic logos already pre-installed, I want to remove those. not just for scotland, but for everyone.
>How about the team that is dubbed the worst in Britain who happens to play in Scotland? I forgot their name though.
looks like Berwick is actually in england, but they play in Scottish League 2. is that who you meant? doesn't seem appropriate though for what I'm trying anyways.
>>68825703

how are they the worst team in britain? britain doesn't mean just english, right? cause they play in Falkirk.
>>68825845
Well, fuck.
>>68825859
They were once the lowest team in the lowest nationwide league in Scotland for 4 or 5 years in a row.
And they got relegated now.
>>68825703
>I want to remove those. not just for scotland, but for everyone.
why would you want to do that and not just get logos for other clubs?
>>68825920
because no logopack covers every single club
>>68825966
They cover just about every club you'll ever see in the default leagues in FM, and usually much lower than that in the British Isles.
>>68825920
see >>68825449
I'd like them always to all be the same, and the rendered ones look nicer anyways. it might make more sense if you knew that I'm primarily an NFL trip.
>one month away from finally taking the Ligue 1 title away from PSG
>will probably be sacked before my mission is complete
JUSTE
>>68826005
>rendered ones look nicer anyways
>>68826052
google is showing me that my opinion is in the severe minority, since apparently no such logopack to do that exists. everyone wants more official logos, not less.
alas
>>68826092
How surprising, that people would want authenticity in a simulator.
>>68826040
If your staffs and players like you nothing will happen. Most of the time.
>>68826141
I'd be fine with the authenticity if it could be guaranteed to be uniformly applied to every club ever, but that's not the case so my autism needs are stronger than my authenticity needs.

>>68826644
Really nothing.
Somebody even asked if they were gonna release a pre-game data editor like FM gets so they can make their own leagues and they said they had "no immediate plans" for it.
I feel certain that a few months back Miles was hinting at them announcing another version (although I may be misremembering) but now I'd say it looks like its kinda done. They keep patching and brining in additional leagues and stuff which is fair enough and admittedly not something you would think they would do if they were just done with developing the game but at the same time they clearly sold quite a few copies and I can't imagine there being much point in them spending outrageous amounts of time patching and fixing this version if on the next version they were going to upgrade match engine and everything else to make it more of an FM16/17 version of EHM.
So I'd say it probably isn't happening or at least not any time soon and if it does happen it will still be like an outdated version of FM but for hockey rather than being more indepth.
>Dat Will Gregg heat map
>Dat Iceland commentary
Top notch
>>68826928
So they reskinned EHM05 and sold it at $20 under the guise of gauging interest with no actual plans beyond that?

>>68826876

>>68827030
>morzi actually playing this game
what gives
>>68826979
It was a special offer but I bought it on release day for like 5 or quid and although I didn't play it much it was decent. Never played the older EHMs so couldn't say but it definitely feels like FM08 just for a different sport.
I haven't played it in ages though and they have patched it just a bunch so although I can't imagine it looks or feels a lot different it will certainly have a lot more leagues and probably play a bit better.
But they might just be sensible and do what FM should do desu and just do a new version every 2 or 3 years and try to actually get it right (not that I'm a big SI hater, I actually quite like them but release is always fairly horribly buggy) especially as presumably the fanbase is much smaller so it'd make sense to keep pushing it for 2-3 years to fund the next edition before trying to build a bigger fanbase with a better version.

I was kinda looking for an european team to manage in order to make the most of the transfer market. I will probably go with Spurs as >>68827333 suggested.
Also, sorry >>68827321, won't happen again senpai.
>>68827657

>>68827533

Joachim*
might as well be Jurgen Klopp though. German choking on the mind.
So what happens if the match can continue? When will they play? And will the final be postponed?
C-can they just give us the cup and be done with it?

Gotta love the "if white looks bright, go inside" rule of thumb.
Last time I saw skies this dark a tornado touched down a few km away.

Go to bed/do literally anything else an hour is extremely optimistic, wind/hail is picking up more now and it has been storming for awhile. The flood/tornado watch is effect until 1 am so it will be quite some time and it doesnt seem to be letting up like the typical bad Midwest storm.

Never heard of this desu, doubt my area will get a tornado but this definitely is a pretty bad storm, hope my car is ok in the morning.

Will be interesting, weather delays are most common in baseball and if goes greater than an hour it will simply be moved to another date, this delay will certainly be greater than an hour, but do you delay it? Do you reschedule? No clue for a cup tourney does.
ssshhhhh, no one saw that.
