[FM2023] Saves Não Detalhados

FM23: Our most played game of all time

Let’s start with FM23 which, at this stage of the game’s lifecycle, is the most played in the series’ history. Over the last few years we’ve been embracing new platforms to improve the reach of our work – which hasn’t always worked that well (may Stadia rest in peace). But, with the success of our launches on Game Pass for Xbox and PC, this year saw us bring back Football Manager Touch for Apple Arcade and launch FM23 Console on PlayStation 5. Both exceeded all expectations.
 
Before we embraced these new types of platforms, we were getting close to 2 million players a year. With FM23, we have just this month hit a once unimaginable milestone of 5m players, and it’s still growing. The games have also gone down tremendously well with the majority of the audience – Steam reviews are at 87%, Apple Arcade at 4.6/5 and Mobile at 4.8/5 on iOS.

However, we cannot ignore that some of our longer-serving players felt that FM23’s progression had not lived up to the standards and expectations we have set over the years – and to be frank, we agree.

The FM23 feature set wasn’t what we’d wanted to deliver. We tried a few new processes last year, some worked, some didn’t. A few months before release we faced the reality of having to drop a few features that we’d wanted to introduce to ensure we were able to deliver a working game. While FM23 was released with some great new features and the overall quality of the game was still very high, it also contained some features which just didn't hit the mark. Also, we weren't able to add enough of the smaller features, that really add to the experience for players that go beyond the average 200-300 hours a year. So for people playing the game for the first time, or the first time for a couple of years, there was a top-quality game for them to play – but for the most hardcore of players, there were fewer new features than normal.
 
There are lots of reasons why this happened – but at the end of the day, as the head of the studio, the responsibility lies with me. Some of the criticism of FM23 was constructive and fair, whereas some of it was both unfair and ill-informed. The only people who know what goes into making Football Manager are those of us at the studio. But we know more people than ever are interested in how our games are made, hence this blog – which is something we are committing to do more often going forward. It’s also why we’re going to talk about the next couple of years rather than just looking ahead to the next iteration of the game.

But before we can discuss the long-term future of the series, we need to let you know what is coming next…

FM24: The last 20 years realised, and the last of its kind

Football Manager 2024 will be the 20th game in Sports Interactive’s Football Manager series, and will be the last of its kind. 

It’s a love letter to football and the FM series as we know it. 

It’s the closing of this chapter of our history.

You can expect a host of improvements, big and small, both in new features and revamps to existing areas of the game. This is all thanks to ideas and feedback from within the studio, the world of football and contributions from our feature request forum.
 
The vast majority of the team at Sports Interactive are working on FM24, with the idea that it will inarguably be the most complete version of Football Manager to date.

The FM24 feature set was confirmed and fully designed earlier than previous releases, thanks to additional resource joining the studio, and huge improvements of various practices and workflows. We’re also due to be feature complete (when every feature design is implemented by the dev, art, and UI teams) earlier than before too. Crucially, this gives us more time to finesse the new features, fix known issues and catch any new ones that may crop up.

That doesn’t mean though that we’re going to announce those features significantly earlier as we want to get it all working first! 

However, as a sneak preview, I can share progress that’s been made towards one of the most requested features from our forums over the last 20 years – and that’s the ability to transfer saved games from one version of FM to the next.

From our data, we know that people play FM in a wide range of different ways. Many will play each version until the next one is released, while others may continue with previous iterations not wanting to give up on their save game. As the best "create your own story" game there is, this is both a blessing and a curse.

But, thanks to many years of hard work from across the studio, I’m delighted to announce you’ll be able to bring your FM23 career into FM24 across all platforms. This means, when you first launch Football Manager 2024, you'll be given the option to continue your FM23 story, picking up exactly where you left off - powered with the new features and revamps that FM24 will introduce. And it’s not only for this year’s version of the game that this feature will be active. It’s also the plan to bring saved games from FM24 into FM25, despite the big changes coming for FM25, which I’ll talk about more shortly.

This is especially good for those playing via Game Pass and Apple Arcade who, by subscribing to those platforms, would lose access to their career shortly after the new game is released. This has been unavoidable to date due to the expiry of our licenses which require us to remove titles from platforms upon conclusion. We’re still working out the finer details with the platform holders, but the idea is that you’ll be able to seamlessly move from FM23 to FM24 on those platforms and continue your save or start a new one.

This won’t be the only long-time requested feature update coming to FM24, and is one of many major tech projects we have been working on as a studio, which leads me nicely onto the final part of the blog…

FM25: The next chapter will be like nothing before

As mentioned before, FM24 will be the closing of a chapter after 20 years at the top of the management simulation league. But it is far from being the end of our story…

For many years now, we have been planning the next revolution of Football Manager, something we haven’t claimed since the 3D engine first came into the series back in FM09. 

With the average play times we enjoy and the health of our game’s performance in the market, it's an important decision to get right. How can we bring new people to the series, whilst not alienating our existing audience? How can we cater for all the different ways that people play our games?

There are a number of key projects we have been working on for some time now that we’re supremely confident will propel Football Manager forward for all of our player types.

 

New chapter, new engine

So, Football Manager 2025, FM25 Console and FM25 Touch will be our first Football Manager releases to use a new engine – Unity. Incredibly well-known in the gaming space, Unity powers many of the best-known games in the world, from Genshin Impact through to the Cities Skyline series. Project Dragonfly explored a number of game engine partners, but after all our research was concluded, Unity was the clear favourite to take us into an exciting new era for the series. 
 
The switch to Unity is going to give us a lot more power graphically, across all formats, alongside powerful user interface tools. We’ve been working closely with Unity over the last few years to be able to deliver a whole new UI which will dramatically improve the ways you are able to interact with the game, both inside and outside of a matchday. Unity's Universal Render Pipeline (URP) allows us to create more optimal graphics across a range of platforms, from mobile to high-end consoles and PC/Mac - but we're also adding some enhancements on top. The switch to Unity means there is the possibility of better-quality graphics across all supported devices, however it should be expected that there will be some changes to the minimum spec requirements, which will be communicated ahead of FM25’s release.

For those of you who are not familiar with gaming technologies – in simple terms, FM25 will have a significantly better looking matchday experience - both on the pitch and the supporting stadium environments, alongside a vastly improved user interface that will dramatically improve how you navigate through screens and access all the information available to you as manager. We’ll also have new technology for Newgens and manager creation which are already looking really promising at this early stage.

The only platform that won’t benefit from the switch to Unity in time for FM25 is FM25 Mobile, but it is absolutely our intention to incorporate the new tech in Mobile at some point in the future.

Pra quem for utilizador de Game Pass, também confirma o lançamento do FM24 Day one.

[Kev]

3ª época no Oliveira do Hospital (1ª na 2ª liga) acabou por ser melhor do que esperava. A nossa primeira metade do campeonato foi terrivel e quem safou isto foi as contratações no mercado de inverno 😄

Para o ano queria tentar algo melhor, se bem que as condições financeiras não são grande coisa. 

No fim do campeonato a umas 5 jornadas do fim ainda tive uma entrevista com o Leixões que me interessava bastante (clube que apoio irl) mas rejeitaram-me :C Foram buscar o Chaló, c*brão.

Tanta conversa e cheira-me que o FM24 vai ser copy past só que com uma imagem e plantel diferentes.

Pelas palavras diria que pode haver mais mexidas é na base de dados, talvez a integração do futebol feminino. Agora fiquei com um hype enorme para o FM 25.

Não leste o blog Fajo. Futebol feminino só no 25.

O FM 24 vai ser uma versão atualizada do 23, com as features que não conseguiram introduzir a tempo no 23. Ainda assim, deverá ter melhorias suficientes para compensar a compra. 
 

Mas vai ser o jogo de transição para uma nova realidade no FM, que só teremos a partir do 25.

Confesso que li aquilo muito rápido, não me apercebi desse ponto. Sorry. 

São todos para comprar anualmente, arranjar tempo para jogar é que é mais difícil lol.

Por acaso, este acaba por ser o único jogo que consigo ter tempo para jogar 😂 nada como estar no sofá a ver series e a jogar. A patroa não se queixa e consigo manter as minhas horas de FM. Win win

Welcome, women’s football

The FM25 cycle will also see the long-awaited introduction of women’s football to the Football Manager series. Before I go into the details, I want to acknowledge that since we first announced our commitment to introduce the women’s game back in July 2021, we haven’t provided any further public updates on the project which has led to speculation and some frustration.

The facts are that we’ve made really good progress in many areas, including research, the match engine and translation. But there are other areas that haven’t made enough advancements, a lot of which are legal issues. The women's game deserves to be the best it possibly can be when it is released - and the new graphics engine will help deliver that.

Supporting us in bringing this project to life are some key people from inside the women’s game, who are passionate about helping us deliver the most authentic experience possible. We look forward to announcing some of those in a future development update blog.

Eu enquanto não tinha a minha filhota também era assim, sofá com a maria com mistura de séries e FM. Agora só quando a pequenita vai dormir, mas nessa altura já estou cansado portanto acabo por ir descansar passado algum tempo. É dar uns toques de vez em quando 😁

Bem olhando para essas informações relativamente ao FM 25, os nossos PCs devem ter de subir o nível para acompanhar bem esse salto.

O FM25 ainda vai ocupar uns 100 gigas 😁

Segundo um gajo no reddit:

Citação

 

I've been reading his responses and here are some of the things he's confirmed.

-FM25 save transfer isn't 100% confirmed but the plan is to make it work from FM24 to FM25. I imagine this is still in development, so he doesn't want to confirm anything yet as it's a good year and a half away until release.

-If you transfer your save from FM23 to FM24 on console it still has a 30 season limit. The console data transfer is still to be confirmed, as they're in the talks with the platforms themselves on how this will work.

-Women's football will be played alongside the men's football. So you can actively see them playing, no need for another women's team only save or anything like that. You can also manage these, as you would any other team currently.

-There's no plans to have a subscription service model. Miles confirmed if there was he'd have announced it already.

-You can't transfer save files from any FM before FM23, the plan is for these to be transferable a year-on-year basis. Of course this could change further down the line.

-Modding support will still be a thing for FM25. Adding new leagues, kits etc. Will still be possible. It may even be better, as Unity is known for been good at mod implementation. We may get a pre-game 3D Stadium designing tool?

Só os saves do FM23 vão dar para passar para o FM24 ou de versões anteriores também? Tipo 21 e 22?

[Almeno]

Só 23.

Tudo maluco com o que os novos gráficos podem trazer e eu que ainda jogo em caricas 😥

[Cannonball]

Vou começar umn jogo novo, vou começar numa equipa do Tirol e tentar ganhar tudo só com jogadores da região. Onde devo começar?

 

- Südtirol, Serie B - começo mais em cima na piramide, mas onde vai ser mais dificil formar equipa só de tiroleses e manter-me a este nível;

- Wacker Innsbruck - equipa que normalmente anda pela primeira divisão austriaca, por problemas financeiras estão na quarta divisão - liga austriaca tem um nivekl mais baixo tb.

- começar numa equipa semi-pro qualquer de um dos lados.

Não me parece que seja direto

2ª epoca de PL....

 

 

 

 

os 3 jogadores que mais contribuiram para o titulo

[Pistolas]

2032/2033

Tenho andado pelo 4º lugar nos últimos 2 anos, mas este ano lá consegui a champions.

Já consegui uns jogadores de outro nível esta época mas fiz muitas mudanças e o entrosamento não era bom, só no fim da época é que as coisas começaram a carburar.

Últimos 5 jogos:

Tudo equipas da primeira metade da tabela.

O dinheiro está a começar a fluir acho que na próxima época já luto pelo titulo.
