>>67649555

Denbts. Then Lokomotiv dropped out of the 3rd league as well. CSKA have a new owner (Grisha Ganchev, one of the richest Bulgarians), and Lokomotiv are doing well in the lower leagues (seems they have new locker rooms and that they've attracted some sponsors as well)

Udinese, they can sign players for free from Watford and Granada, you can also sell players for them for free, it's like managing 3 teams at the same time

Dem mentals and physicals tho
Me and a friend used to play LMA manager back in the day when we were kids on the PS2. Recently we downloaded an emulator again and started playing it, but we won't always have time to meet up and play out a whole season.
I've played FM13 before and loved it, but I was wondering whether any of you know whether it is possible to have a 2-player online season? I know you can have single games but that doesn't sound very good.
We were thinking about having bets on who has the highest league finish, CL, FA Cup etc. H2H games and such
Anyone had any experience with the two player mode?

>>67652575
you absolute madman link me to something that says 3 cbs are a good idea

Against the 4-4-2 hoofball of LLM, 3 CBs are useful.

Guys i have a question, year 2018 stoke after promoted from 2nd league into premier league aproach me as manager.I was at Serbia nation team before i resign.So i took them and finish 7th or 6th...took EL by that capital cup or whatever its called.In second season with them i won league easly and thing that bothers me is finance.After one season i became one of top 10 richest clubs in world.After one fucking season! I sold players for 140 mil and brought for 80-90.Still im like 800 mills worth.I dont want to play that save no more cuz its boring.Why are England clubs so wealthy? All of top 10 clubs are from England.It means i can take Milwall to UCL in 3 seasons?
>>67652640
honestly i would have given it a go but i don't have the CB depth in the squad, only got like 3
also >mid season tactical changes

how on earth do i sort out my finances in the championship? feels like every year i just go into debt by a million or two and then we get the end of season rewards and go up to +800k or something
do i just need to grab a fluke promotion to the PL so i can bring in like 20 million squid or what

He is Championship now, buying is fine imo

i always have 5 loan players in every matchday squad so yeah i am using loans pretty much exclusively
>>67652872
>>67652875
Fair enough.
here's the team as of this year sorted by rating
that simpatico pickup was a smart january decision desu apparently he's been awesome

Anyone able to answer this?
Can you guys help a poor fag ? I got interested in FM but I got no money I have to wait until my birthday which is next month
I found a crack but there is this fake name issue. Is there really no solution ? Will I have to wait until my birthday ?
Thank you guys
>>67653256
look for fitgirl repack 16.2.0, should be no issues if you follow the instructions
but plz buy the game afterwards :)
>>67652650
good CB's are the cheapest thing to fill your squad with
why are my team choker?
>>67653442
No problem, I plan to buy it as soon as possible :)
Had a lot of fun playing it until january (where the names change), I just wanted to try, was afraid it was too complex, can't afford to buy a game so expensive if I don't like it :/
>>67653539
you know there's an official demo that let's you play a whole season, right?
>when you realise it's rigged
>>67653567
A whole season ? Seriously ? I thought it was just a few weeks or months. Wow cool. No restrictions, the real game for one reason ?
Well it would be easier, I'm not used with this cracked games, torrents and shit
Thank you !
>>67653626
*season
>>67653626
Ah, sorry, I just did a quick google and apparently it's only 6 months in game. But yeah, it's the full game.
>>67653648
I guess it's still good. Better than dealing with this weird torrent stuff. The crack I found was very very easy to install so that's part of why I was attempted
It's the same time I was able to play without the fake name bug but it's cool because now the bug occure as soon as I start a game
>>67653683
also once you purchase the full game this save will 100% transfer, I'm not sure about the pirate versions transferring being stable.
>>67653683
try g2a or wait until june for the summer sale, should drop to like $10
>>67653715
>this save will 100% transfer,
Never bothered with the demos before, that's neat.
>>67653567
6 months m8
Oh cool. I hope I will be able to purchase it soon. What is the lowest price at which you saw the game ?
55€ on Steam but sound kind of expensive ... Do you ever saw it on sales ?
Sorry for the broken english
>>67653750
it goes on sale many times over the year, i think i got it for $15USD
>>67653750
Yes, it might be on sale for the champions league final, they did that last year.
Also during the summer sale, it should get a discount.
also you could look at keyseller sites(like g2a) and they often have it lower than the steam price
>>67653763
Wow okay clearly 15$ sounds better !
I hope I will see it one sales soon. I'm downloading the demo right now. Will probably stay in this thread to see what you guys are doing, still better than nothing
Thank you again
>>67653750
Here is a handy site Pierre
https://steamdb.info/app/378120/
Tracks all the price changes in the steam store so you can know if the deal is real
>>67653798
Also they usually have a sale after the euros. The game was in a humble bundle a few months ago
>>67653911
>>67653849
>>67653798
Also, the Steam Sale isn't official, but leaked info indicates that it's going to begin June 23rd, so a little over a month away.
>>67654065
If our French friend wants the best deal he should go for one of those barely legal cd key websites. Steam never goes ultracheap in the EU for FM, you're better off getting it from amazon
>>67653849
Thank you I forgot this kind of site existed
>>67653911
>>67654065
Okay thank you guys. Praying for a champions league deal !
>>67654284
Yeah but, what about the "barely legal" part ?
There must be some cons ?

Almost fell to the most dangerous lead again.
>>67654804
Pretty much this: >>67654869
Plus, there are certain traits in CBs that are OP in the match engine (Jumping Reach), especially given the power of crosses. Search for:
Jumping Reach > 15
Bravery >15
Then look for bargains with good positioning, concentration, anticipation and tackling. One good thing to also do is look for DM's and FB's with good jumping and convert them (they tend to be better all-around players).
I won the Premier League with 3 CB formations, and 3 of my 6 starters were free or thereabouts.
>pic related
This guy has spent 16 seasons in the Bundesliga and PL and sold for a grand total of $2.3M.

Almost 2 years of time towards his permit is going to be erased. Fucking sucks.
>>67657508
Depends on if you want him to be a sweeper or a libero.
If Sweeper - About the same as CB + Pace and Decisions
If Libero - About the same as Sweeper + Creativity and Dribbling
>>67657533
>Shit player demands more time
>first game he starts he tears his ACL
>>67657615
Libero /sounds/ amazing, but it is?
>rubberbanded all season
>let it slip in the last three games
>>67657678
It's hard to tell.
If you have a good Libero, you probably already have a world class team to play in front of him.
Would be a real fuck up if I don't qualify.
Great business.
>>67652829
>finishing 11

m8 mitch, I wondered how a player you bought in league 2 or even earlier could perform, I thought he was a young player that developed. No, Quintana is fucking shit as a striker, your system is probably just good at setting your striker up for goals. Replace him already.
>>67657678
idk, I've never seen a good SW in the game, let alone a libero.

>>67658918
Even if he becomes shit, there will always be a mid-table English team willing to sign him.
>>67658948
He had a MUCH better first season in the PL than Pogba had in Serie A. Pogba was a flop who couldn't get a game at United.
>15 year old regen scores a goal in the Champions League
I'm welling up with tears lads.
>>67659045

All I'm seeing is how United are completely inept at giving established youth time. And hiring Mouyes won't fix it.

so, you can bid to have yourself be put in the game as a regen. neat.
>implying i'm paying £500+ to do that
frig off.
Rather unlucky to lose but it was fun getting a group of young and rather sub par Cameroon youth players to beat Denmark, Sweden and Portugal along the way to the final.
Started a tranmere save and literally all the players are 30+ and are natural with the most random roles like Limited Fullback and Wide Advanced Playmaker what the fuck am i gonna do lol

Why would anyone do this? If your name isn't retardly negroid it'll appear as a random regen. I've seen my name like 5 times already
>>67661084
That looks like a comfy save t.b.h.
>>67661109
I don't even think I've seen someone with my name, and it isn't rare.
>>67661109
>tfw rare last name and literally only one guy in the entire db has my last name
And he isn't even a player
>>67661109
Haven't seen my last name on any regens before. I don't know how common of a last name it is in Poland though
>>67661128
It was pretty fun. The club I'm with is Cherbourg, and just started my second season in CFA2.

>tfw common last name
>tfw you scout others with your last name and pretend running the club is a family business

To be fair, China already committed the Human Rights' violation.

Would it be possible to run a team with all players having the same last name? It would have to be a common name, like Smith or something. Subs too.
>>67662153
I'm sure Gonzalez FC could win a league somewhere
>>67662153
I've tried it already. Gets tedious getting it set up but it's really possible.
In a pretty standard setup there are like 160+ players named "Smith"
I had created a manager for it at Middlesbrough named Morrissey and got started but eventually I got bored.

Spoilers!
I'm pretty sure this is the weirdest CB I've ever seen
So fast and so cowardly, not to mention that abysmal positioning, I have no idea what happened in his development.
