The frustrating lack of obvious options when talking to a player...


Recommended Posts

So my entire team is furious with me and destroying team morale as we slide from certain Premiership promotion. What caused this? My left back got sold and when my players reacted badly I couldn't state the reason for sale!?

He was sold because he had 6 months left on his deal, was valuable and wouldn't sign a new contract because he wanted to leave for a "bigger" club (a smaller rep team in the relegation zone who pay him less money... gotta love FM). So as there was no "he forced his way out and wouldn't renew his deal, I cash in to have SOMETHING towards a replacement backup, as the current backup who is world class takes his spot"... I was forced to more or less say "I have a backup already in the team" and now everything has gone to hell.

Seriously, in reality this situation wouldn't have even happened.

Did you report that as a possible bug?

Those are not buga...

One is just one of the many basic and very reasonable interaction options that have been left ouf of FM for years, for no apparent reason. The other is yet another byproduct of the unbalanced CA/Reputation dynamics.

A bug would be a player reacting badly to a positive team-talk or to individual praise. Not having the option to explain why a choice had to be made is just a glaring omission.

A player moving to a worse club for less money should be motivated only by personal reasons
