Reflection86 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Will the updated Champions League and Europa League prize fund announced for this season 2018/19 (nearly a 50% increase on last year!) be in FM19? Also they've changed the way market pool money is distributed. The reason I ask is because sometimes this gets overlooked and isn't updated till a patch or even till the following year's game.

FrazT Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 SI have always said that rule or competition changes that have been confirmed by the organising association will be included in the first available version of the game to be released, as long as there is time to test it beforehand.

Found a better link here, from June 5 2018 on UEFA's official website, confirming the changes in how prize money is distributed, and overall huge increases in prize money for both Champions League and Europa League, for the 2018/2019 season https://www.uefa.com/insideuefa/stakeholders/clubs/news/newsid=2562024.html As this was announced in June, I'd hope this makes it into FM19 from the start.

Reflection86 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 2.7m euros just for picking up a single Champions League group stage win now is insane! Not to mention 15.25m euros just for qualifying for the group stage in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reflection86 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Just a thought- this new 'coefficient ranking' payment is good for building up a club from smaller nations. Before it was impossible to ever increase the champions league market pool share for your nation in FM I think. Now the higher you get your club in the rankings, the higher coefficient payment you'll eventually get. Nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should have been dynamic, I spent a long time working with the coder to implement a more accurate CL/EL TV revenue system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflection86 Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 Any confirmation on whether the hugely increased prize money and new co-efficient distribution system for both European competitions is in FM19? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
