pallett1988 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 So I'm just about to start my third season and I'm yet to see the Brexit feature in game yet. No biggie, as I know it can happen any time from around 2018 (if I remember right). I was wondering, how many of you have seen this in your games, and which version of the Brexit did you get?

suncrush Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I simmed a game, and got a hard Brexit with Scottish independence, but players already on teams did not need to apply for work permits. I haven't seen it in my actual save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrycarrie Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I've had it mentioned twice in my newsfeed. Midway through the 18/19 season saying things will stay as they are, and then again saying 'United Kingdom has left the European Union), with the same outcome towards the end of the 19/20 season. And now I seem to need work permits for European players, which is fine. But someone like Bernardo Silva won't get a work permit according to my scouts, but a regen Barca striker with one cap gets one immediately? Apparently 39 cap Jan Oblak won't either. I don't want either of those players but if someone can either let me know how it all works or if this is a bug, it'd be appreciated. Happens with other established stars too. Is it entirely random on who does or doesn't?! I'll post a couple of screencaps, I couldn't for the Brexit announcements as they've now gone from my inbox: Instant work permit: Will struggle to get one (all established European players with International credentials): Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomit Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 As a brexit won't happen untill 2019 at the earliest, and nobody knows what it will look like exactly, I'm puzzled if this is mentioned in or will have any implications for FM 17 at all.

thomit Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Right. I don't see the point though. I mean ... why not just wait 'till FM 20, when they will know what the outcome is? Hopefully. Maybe not untill FM 21. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagenham_Dave Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Bear in mind though the vote has happened and by 2018/19 one of the outcomes will be a reality. Why not simulate this when you get to that point in the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinso Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Realism. The vote has happened. Can anyone predict what will happen after that vote? no. imho the game has it right, factor everything in and then make it random, until we can determine what will happen, which is gonna be years down the line Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomit Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Oh I won't bother to get my nickers in a twist over this ... but why not just leave this "possible future" untill a later version of FM when the outcome is clear?

The vote has already happened, what part of this are you not understanding? You'd have a point had the actual vote been in a couple of years and they were predicting outcomes on that basis. Anyway, it's not the first time they've done this. There were alternative outcomes to the Qatar World Cup on the game last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand it all I think, Dave. I just don't like this "alternative futures" thingy. I'd like for FM to implement rules - taken from the real world - only when the rules are here, or implemented in a future date only if they are fully known and also the date for the change is known. Not before. All right? If it had been clear and set in stone what the rules are going to be in 2019 or 20, I have no problems with it. I'd also like the WC to be moved from Qatar to another place when it is clear if and where it's going to move to. Not before. I don't like FM to open up for "alternative futures" at all. I fear for what kind of silliness that could possibly lead to. So please, allow people to voice their concerns, there's really no need to be condecending.

rinso Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 So, why shouldn't Brexit be included? It's a real event. Who knows how it will pan out, but... including it now, gives them a couple of years to beta test all the possible outcomes, so then they only have to hardcode one or two of them when it eventually happens...

No, the point of the game is not to play "as you want" The point of any game is to play in a way that the makers allow you. Some are more strict where you follow a certain path while others allow more freedom or allow you to change options. As for realism its a potential path in the future IRL therefore SI have incorporated those paths into FM which makes it more realistic. You say you don't like it and yet you've failed to experience it yet in your save so how do you know? You don't even know which option you'll get.
