dim13 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 New York City Soccer Club was announced today as the 20th MLS team for 2015. So based on previous MLS/FM league changes, when do you think they will be added to FM ? FM15, FM16 ? Seems like MLS changes lag a year behind due to FM being released during the MLS season.

Yeah, due to licencing issues it would be FM16 before the were in the MLS. FM14 will have the current MLS season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaMi 7 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 According to me, New York City Football Club (not New York City Soccer Club ) will be added in FM15. Infact, FM14 will be released in late 2013, FM15 will be released in late 2014 and in it we can choose, as season starting day, january/february 2014 or january/february 2015. According to me, if we choose january/february 2015, we will find 20 team in the MLS so 19 current team + New York City Football Club.. P.S.: I hope my english is correct, I'm italian boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim13 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 According to me, New York City Football Club (not New York City Soccer Club ) ... Sorry my mistake. You are correct, they will be named New York City Football Club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceman14 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 And Cosmos? Will they have one day the right to go to MLS? It was the objective of this club, no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogogo golem Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 They might put them in FM15 and possibly 14 (I'm not sure) and make them start when they start in real life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim13 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 And Cosmos? Will they have one day the right to go to MLS? It was the objective of this club, no? I read that it was the the owner(s) of the NY Cosmos decision to no longer pursue MLS. I believe it was a club objective at one time though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be really nice to have NYCFC in FM14 later this year and have them start when the 2015 is reached in the game. I just added this suggestion for FM14 to the Wish List thread in the General folder/forum. Hoping it gets considered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping it gets considered. Best case scenario is that the club will be in the database in the next version with competition set to "A Premier Division" or something. From my understanding, FM gets an MLS licence one season at a time, so I would seriously doubt they would be active in the MLS before FM16. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerud Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 When the Vancouver Whitecaps joined MLS in 2011, FM didn't include them until FM 12. Holding this as an example, NYC FC joining in 2015 would see them in FM for the first time in the FM 16 version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaMi 7 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 And Cosmos? Will they have one day the right to go to MLS? It was the objective of this club, no? I red some months ago that NY Cosmos will play in the NASL but in the second "stage" of NASL that start in the summer. When the Vancouver Whitecaps joined MLS in 2011, FM didn't include them until FM 12. Holding this as an example, NYC FC joining in 2015 would see them in FM for the first time in the FM 16 version. I remembered that FM included Whitecaps, sorry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themodelcitizen Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 In the meantime you could add them into MLS if you're willing to swap an eastern conference team out. Maybe Toronto or Philly into NASL. I've thought about a fantasy DB where the NASL is just as strong as MLS and the winners play off in the Soccer Bowl... maybe give NYCFC some players to kick things off, some Man City loanees, Hargreaves and a few others Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
