    The new virtix 1.4 update is pretty nice.

      Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

      So it appears as though the Russian file edits I loaded have bugged out. While not actually save ruining, its killing the immersion for me, so I'm looking to start a new save again.

      I'm running into a bit of a problem right now though, I have a hard time thinking of a save file I want to do. I always create myself as a manager, lately I've been starting with 0 badges, Sunday League, and working my way up. I'm tired of LLM right now though. So I'm hoping someone here can give me a challenge, or point me to something that they've tried that's working. I'm going to start a little journeyman save and see where it takes me in the meantime, or what I feel like, if it gives me some inspiration.

      The German transfer bug sucks as well, as I kind of go to Germany as my default find a team and start save.

            Pentagon Challenge. Technically the challenge is to start as unemployed, Sunday League. But you don't really have to follow that if you don't want. Basically you try to win the continental club competition on every continent. If you finish that, you can then try to win the international competition for every continent.

              I did that in FM15, it was the least fun I've ever had. I still completed it, so it's actually not that bad, but it was so difficult it was insane.

              Either way, sometimes you just go back to what you already know.

                  Absolutely crushed. First time I've felt this in this game (only bought it for the first time this year.)



                  Really going to try and stick with this save and get them (created team) all the way up, but man I thought I had it in the playoffs, just to lose in the semi on a goal that late in extra time.

                    I fully admit that I've cried to heartbreaking losses before. It's rough, but eventually the great wins overshadow the heartbreaking losses.

                        Back at my second home in England, The City Ground.

                        Took over on matchday 25, as part of Roman Romanov's takeover of the club.

                        We're closing in on a playoff spot.

                          This is the first time I've ever played in Greece. And this is the first time I've ever seen so many players unhappy without me pissing them off for breaking a promise.

                          Constant requesting first team football from everyone. Like they go two games without playing and then bam, I need first team. The entire squad getting upset of the way players are treated if I don't give in to first team football demands. Lots of players calling meetings. Players demanding I strengthen the squad because they feel so and so should be sold, etc. Players generally unhappy with my management. Players demanding to be sold, not asking but demanding, because of my management.

                          lol this is nuts. Even if I don't get fired before the end of the year. I will stepping down end of season. "Because I don't like it, and they don't like me. Its very simple."

                            It's kind of fun when it becomes a complete disaster like that to endlessly mess with the players. You know you're leaving anyway, so just do things like fine them at every opportunity and stick guys in the reserves.

                              You guys seem to get through seasons at rapid pace.

                              I wonder if I'm playing it all wrong. I sit down to play for an hour or perhaps 2--and maybe get through like 2 or 3 weeks of game time lol.

                                Promoted. I want to say it's a surprise, but the team really clicked after I took charge 3 great signings and we ended up 5th. Beat Sheffield Wednesday in the semis then handled Brentford easily in the final. Jonas Olsson and Bashkim Kadrii scored in the playoffs to make me feel even better about signing them.
