FM 2014 features

Now it's time to think about FM 2014 and its future exciting features we would like to see:

- Penalties and red cards by goalies
- Enhanced youth management
- Better 3D pitch. Match engine fixes for strange ball heading, poor long shots withoug goals, sliding goalies, etc.
- Easy selection of clear cut chances for uploading
- Revamping conferences
- Spending money earned by you as manager
- More diversity in player talks
- Ability to disable generated players
- Facebook integration

What would be the advantage of disabling generated players? You might as well play scenario mode.

Enhanced youth management sounds good, and at the moment it still seems quite sporadic on the recruitment into your academy when you're sitting on excellent facilities.

I haven't played FM 13, but from FM 12, I would like.

- A list of stadiums, and stadiums history for each league and club respectively.
- Deduction of different amount of points depending on how far they have gone into administration. Every club is only docked 10 points in FM 12 and it only seems to happen in England.
- A better tactic situation. Right now, you can only place players in any of 27 slots in the tactics area. To make it more realistic, there should be more spaces, or the choice to position players anywhere on the field.


Also a maybe controversial one, but maybe make attributes invisible. I know the attributes, along with the preferred moves, allow the match engine to function and all games to be different, but in real life, players don't have attributes. I would keep the preferred moves, as that is something which will be noted in real life, but people don't have attributes out of 20 in real life. If they are hidden, but there is still the possibility of editing in the editor, that would be good for the game. I don't know what they could do with players improving their attributes during time, but I am just speculating anyway.

Ones I have made bold are ones I think are utter crap. They have tried to improve conferences and player talks, but people still complain. FB is shite now. Spending money earned by the manager - has this ever happened in real life - NO? then STFU. And why would anyone want to limit a game time by preventing regens.

I don't know about anyone else but I play network games fairly regularly with mates, and we've always liked the idea of being able to appoint a human player as an u19 manager, teaming up at the same club in different roles. It's the route a lot of managers take to the top, Steve Mclaren, Brendan Rogers etc.

Another thing - I like starting as poor teams generally, sometimes success comes straight away, sometimes not. However, when keeping Zenit Caslav around the top of the Czech 2nd div whilst in administration is pretty much a non-starter in terms of accruing reputation (even though it was bloody solid), taking a fancied team to the title when it would be looked on as a sackable offence if you didn't instantly scores you a juicy increase. Irritating.

How about giving detailed interviews with media outlets. In the uk and Spain, various managers appear on radio stations, discussing things that relate to their team, and other teams they've managed. You could have in depth, football focus style interviews once or twice a season too.

If you are unemployed, or a national manager, how about being offered a role as a pundit on a game?

All of this (along with being allowed to select more than one preferred club) could allow you to build up a real managerial personality.

-The ability to start as a manager of a clubs youth or reserve teams as this is how the vast majority of managers start off.
-Job interviews, if you impress you might earn a job for which you are perhaps a bit under qualified.
-I do think you should be able to use the money you make, perhaps by reinvesting it in your club which would make it less likely that you would be sacked as well as earning you a place among the hearts of supporters.

when the FM 2014 will coming?

If it follows the pattern of previous releases then October/November time.

Yes to be able to manage youth squads etc
Most of all though a decent skin to start the game with that has background capability and that does not blind you because it is way to bright.
Fm 13 was terrible....way too may problems (how many updates have we had)

I'm still looking for more Editor updates, myself.

I'd like the ability to be able to have more club rules, such as Athletic's Basque rule. Then you would be able to have more fun creating a league with clubs that can only have certain nationalities, a nation league, if you will. Pour example.

Only subtle changes but i would like there to be a red and green arrow for subs to appear in the timeline on a match day, as well as it saying saved penalty instead of missed if the penalty was on target and not blazed high/wide, just to give the GK's a bit more credit.
I also agree i would love to editor to be updated and a bit easier to use. Also i know its probably not going to happen but more "official" playable leagues and licenses.

But overall there is nothing to major i would like changed.

Id also like to see a result grid with league results

I want to be able to list positions for my Director of Football to find .. sick of him bidding for defensive midfielders when i don't even use a tactic for dms.
