I've had trouble getting work permits in 2017. I have 3 players who are out on loan until I can get one. I tried for one of them earlier and got one, so I decided to try for another one. Every time I click on Apply For Work Permit, I get a message saying when the decision will be made, but then nothing happens. I don't get any message about it and can apply again. Anyone else had this? Should I just keep trying and it'll work eventually?

Shroud posted:I think you usually have to wait a bit for the decision. I had one that took a week for the decision to be made. No, it says the decision will be that day or the next, but then no message comes through. For the guy who got one, it was the same day. edit: the game updated before I loaded it today, which I'm hoping means that's why the wp came through for one guy, though might just be coincidence.

eleven extra elephants posted:I'm at Juventus atm and the non EU player thing is loving me over. I'm sure it's bugged, it's not letting me register certain players even when I have slots available and even when the new season starts. Don't know if I'm completely misunderstanding the rule It's cheating, but if you get the editor you can add nationalities to players. I did it after a hard Brexit in my last game. I understand signing young players was always going to be tough, but the way the game read it, I couldn't even sign the likes of Pique or Suarez when they were getting old as they hadn't played any recent internationals.

Yeah, in my save it was impossible to sign anyone who wasn't playing regular internationals. I understand this with younger players, but stars who had retired from international football like Suarez couldn't get work permits for me.

Mans posted:The AI can fail those? I honestly assumed those would be a player thing mostly. Yeah, AI can fail that. I've been watching some really nerdy YouTube videos recently where a guy just edits stuff for fun and sims the game to see what happens. In one of them, he gave a non league team £1b and at one point, they won the League Cup, but weren't in Europe the next year. Here's the channel if anyone's interested: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwoaMMnyGPRFZi9cStQKaig Not super exciting, but interesting to see how the AI works in certain situations.

eleven extra elephants posted:United are like that mega unkillable boss from the FF online game in FM, their team just seems to be perfectly tailored to dominate for years into the game. I also find Pep gets sacked from City incredibly early every time I start new careers I'm in 2026 and they've usually been my challengers, but the team is getting old and their finances fluctuate wildly from being broke for half the season then getting the PL/CL money. The wage bill is huge, too. They're a couple of seasons of missing out on the CL (which looks likely this year) and they could be in financial trouble. It'll be interesting to see if there's a breaking point.

NutShellBill posted:I also love the challenge in starting off in the lowest of the low British leagues. (Weston super Mare and Bath are my poisons of choice.) And I beeline for the Canadian job, because I'm Canadian, and legit have an inkling of who is decent, and an undue sense of national pride. I don't know about this year, but in 2017 signing anyone from abroad post brexit was near impossible (I think the severity of the Brexit was somewhat random). Easy (albeit slightly cheating) way around it is to buy the editor and give the player English as a second nationality. Think it's around €5.

Mrenda posted:Are there any decent guides for messing around with the editor and saves? Even changing the priorities managers give to things? I'm guessing it's a black box that involves a whole load of dark magic, but I figured I'd take a look if I could. I don't know, but for anyone interested this guy does some fun experiments on YouTube with the editor. He's created the perfect player, put a transfer ban on the top leagues and the like. They're fairly nerdy, but I've enjoyed some of them.

I got the message about Brexit happening "soon" and that details were to follow. It was a year or so in game time before they were confirmed, though there was to be no changes. First time I've gotten a soft Brexit.

FM20 is going to be available on Google Stadia, where you can play it through your browser. No idea on cost, but it's an interesting idea. Think I'll stick with the regular one for now, but if it is a success, it could make a big difference. The idea of having FM available at any time on my work computer is terrifying though...

If you guys like that, you'd probably like this youtube channel if you haven't seen it already: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwoaMMnyGPRFZi9cStQKaig Guy messes around with the editor to set up scenarios and lets them play out. Some of them are really engrossing.

Mrenda posted:Cork City are being shown as in the Irish Premier Division for 21. They've actually been relegated (and Drogheda promoted.) It's been reported on the SI forums and will supposedly be fixed for the final data. I was just looking forward to bringing my home town back to "glory." Didn't the league only finish on Monday, though? Can't really expect it to be that up to date. Also, gently caress Drogheda.

Mrenda posted:Cork have been mathematically relegated for a few weeks now, and Drogheda promoted (I believe.) I don't pay much attention to the LOI outside of FM, but these changes could have been put in. I don't know if the playoffs from promotion/relegation will be played in time, but the head researcher said the Cork/Drogheda swap will be in the final data release. Ohh yeah, I knew you weren't whinging! My point is if the league isn't over, they can't really implement any of the repercussions. It would be odd to have teams relegated or promoted correctly, but not have say, the European places correct. Anyway, gently caress Drogheda... edit: What happened with Cork? They won the league recently and seem to have gotten to the cup final in each of the last 5 or 6 years, discounting last year.

Masonity posted:I'm pretty sure that for the last few versions they haven't been able to. I'm a youth horder and European players joining the window after they turn 18 is a long running pain in my rear end. If I recall correctly, you would get a message about Brexit that would range from "everything staying the same" to "you can't sign anyone" because they didn't know how it would work. One save I had (a few years ago) made it impossible to sign players that weren't internationals in their prime. I remember scouting some old players whose contracts were running down (big name players like Pique) but because they had retired from international, they wouldn't get a work permit.
