brigandinho Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hello. I'm playing my first FM2010 game as Modena and I'm having trouble understanding the AI managers' behaviour for transfers. A few days ago two different teams offered players to me and others. The other AI teams bid the EXACT amount requested and were accepted, but my bids were rejected even when 3x as high. What's going on here? Do they hate me personally? Don't they want to sell to a club with low club stature? Is the AI cheating? Something else?

Edle Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 have you put down their manager in the press? i know that can sometimes effect their willingness to sell. similarly are you a rival, in a divisional or geographical sense? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brigandinho Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 It might be that the managers don't like me, even though I'm always so nice when talking to the press. They must think I'm being sarcastic... Come to think of it, the local reporter hates me too One of the teams may have been a rival. I assumed they would just check the "don't offer to rivals" if they didn't want to sell to one, but maybe they don't or maybe it doesn't work very well? I don't remember what teams did it to be honest, but I'll have to take a look at those things if it happens again. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
InterWolf Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Maybe they would sell to you if no other option, but seeing as other non divisional / local rivals offered, they'd rather sell to them . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
petey_g Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Might be something to do with the add-on clauses in the bid. More likely they hate you. The chelsea manager hates me and won't release his English players for friendlies because of it. Idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdanio Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 most likely the AI bids are 'an initial offer of....' as an example: an initial offer of £2m, plus 20% profit clause, plus £8m over 48 months will be more than your £6m but the news screen will show them as an initial offer of £2m versus a bid of £6m. needs to be ammended on the news screens because the AI nearly always puts the bulk in monthly payments.

brigandinho Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 If there are additional clauses it says "2 million + clauses" though in the Transfer page of the player, right? I suspect they dislike me. Fiercely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smikis Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 make sure you dont have deadline set for your offer.. i used to have it.. and took me a while till i bothered to read whole thing where it says that team wont accept any offer with deadline, due high interest in player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romanista. Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 if its becuase they dislike you or it is a rival, i am sure it says so when your bid is rejected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen anything about them disliking me or being a rival, so it's probably the deadline thing which I'm sure I've seen somewhere. I'll have to pay attention to what they say next time and not just assume they're greedy basterds. Thanks guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
