jcp1417 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 On the Steam workshop, there is a league update through level 10. At the risk of sounding unappreciative, would I lose anything by using that update instead of waiting for this one? I'm only enabling up to level 8 anyway. I don't really know what all gets changed and I do know that I loved your update last year. So do you know if anything will be different if I use the one available assuming I don't want to go past LV 8? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what they've done to the file, they might not have the league boundaries set which I had to put in for levels 7 and 8, once I get 9 and 10 sorted I can then work on the FA Cup then look at maybe releasing a file.

AhMostyn Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) 15 minutes ago, lionel messi said: talking of playoffs, does anyone know the correct rules of the playoffs From regional premiers - each division: semi-finals 2nd v 5th, 3rd v 4th then final with winners making up a pot of 4 & the 2 with the best PPG over the season going up. (So 4 division winners + 2 best PPG playoff winners go up) From regional first divs - same format, meaning 7 winners, of whom top 5 PPG go up (So 7 division winners + 5 best PPG playoff winners go up) Seems a bit unfair that 2 teams at each level may win playoffs but not go up - but when has that bothered the FA?

DementedHammer Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) I've been working on some lower league NZ leagues (down to level 6 in my region). One thing that genuinely excites me is that, in FM 19, where players are auto-generated, there seems to be a much more noticeable difference in player abilities in lower reputation clubs and divisions . In my NZ example, players in level 6 now seem to be noticeably weaker than players in level 4. In FM 2018, there was very little difference between the teams., all the way up to the 2nd tier. It is an incredibly small sample size. But, if what I'm seeing is correct, it is going to make a level 22 save even more fun this time around.

Based off of the FA handbook it appears that this is how it is being done anyway. The higher PPG decides home field advantage, rather than placing you straight through as AhMostyn suggested.
