I really don't mind about any brexit scenario, even if that means I'll only have to buy English players. But from what I had read the whole system was flawed, with teams not readjusting their visions, having appeals accepted after 6 months after no changes in player status, etc. I'd like to know whether those issues seem sorted now In the beta I was signing loads of young without work permit the a week later allowed and accepted, havnt tested full release yet and they don’t show change list from beta to live Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you grab them in the summer 2020 window, the original rules will apply, but then they'd need to be over 18, otherwise they won't move until they're 18, and then the rules at the time of the move actually taking place will apply.

But since the full release I haven't even been able to get a work permit for any new overseas signings even on the second application. So it seems as if the way it was in the Beta was slightly bugged. It is really like playing with two hands tied behind your back. for instance, at the start of my fourth season I brought a Romanian Regen for 5.8m.

Popular Post Rakiye Posted November 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) This is unbelievable. SI's Russian roulette rules are causing people to be fearful of starting a new game in England because they don't want their save ruined by their best guess. Yet, we cant even edit it out due to a fault with the editor... Talk about an absolute mess! Again, why include a hypothetical guess about politics in a football simulation game that's meant to be a form of escapism?? Nobody is arguing with Brexit happening and I for one voted for it. That is not the issue. The issue is the ridiculously stringent worst case game breaking scenarios that keeps being spewed out that quite frankly are unworkable, unforgiving and most certainly not going to happen. No decision has been made yet over this IRL and I sincerely doubt it will be to the detriment of English football. To be perfectly honest, Id rather that they included Covid19 over this in the game because at least that has already happened and we know where we stand before we start a new save... All I have witnessed from SI is Anti-Brexit scenarios regarding people playing the game. Not once have I seen somebody say that Brexit benefitted their game and it has worked out better. That for me would suggest they are playing politics and they are trying to influence peoples feelings regarding the political situation by making their game more difficult to play with no found evidence to support it. It was a nice advertisement gimmick two years ago SI, but lets get rid of it until its gospel. Edited November 26, 2020 by Rakiye 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 It would be nice if they had allowed an alternative - no brexit. Even if only by the pre-game editor, which seems broken. Maybe they could provide an alternative database that has no brexit, instead of leaving customers (ha ha) to try to mend their mess. Slightly dented my faith in SI this year.

Junkhead Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 4 hours ago, Gee_Simpson said: So based on the last few posts in this thread, there's nothing wrong with the potential brexit outcomes? My understanding is that the points based system which is reflected in the game is the way things are currently set to be once we end the transition period. The points based system will apply across all immigration into the UK as confirmed by the Home Office. The Premier League/FA have provided a proposal to the Home Office whereby concessions are made to football. No one knows exactly what that proposal contains as this has not been confirmed yet. If the proposals are rejected, football will follow the same rules as every other industry in the UK. Details about how the points based system will apply to football have not been fully confirmed, and the EPL/FA proposal muddies things up even further. However a google search on this will bring you up a number of results from various sources wherein the information on how this will likely work is pretty consistent. I assume that SI have the same unconfirmed yet very consistent information, upon which they have based their in-game Brexit outcome. However, it appears there are a few issues at play which is causing a lot of confusion. Firstly, I am not convinced that things are working as intended within the game. I am not really playing the game at the moment due to work commitments, but I get the feeling things aren't working as intended. Others might be able to confirm. Secondly, there are a couple of schools of thought that things shouldn't be implemented at all at this point because there has been no official confirmation on how the points based system will be applied to football, and also because the EPL/FA proposals could change all that anyway if accepted. Thirdly, there are some people who don't want brexit to be reflected at all because they would prefer to continue as they always have and are unhappy because changing it in the editor is difficult. This is fair enough IMO and the editor needs sorting out clearly. As well as this there are those who seem to think that football IRL will just carry on regardless and that SI are overdoing it. This remains to be seen, however I think this is dead wrong. Football is not the be all and end all in this and other, more profitable, industries will want concessions too if football is given too many. Football in this country will, IMO, fundamentally change in respect of foreign players after the transition period and this will inevitably weaken the Premier League. What level of flux actually happens is yet to be seen, but the idea that things will carry on as normal is pure fantasy, IMO. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baodan Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 But it did exist for the last 3 years of FM as well and you guys are still surprised which is simply incredible to see. It's also very much a real thing and should indeed be included in FM as closely to whatever outcome will happen in real life. Despite us not knowing for sure and despite the minor nuisance it might be for a small part of the playerbase.

Also, given that SI and Miles have been submitting data and engaging with the FA/EPL/Home Office regarding the impacts of Brexit on football via the millions of simulations of different Brexit rules from our saves (as noted in a number of news articles, one such example being this article here), I'd imagine, as @themadsheep2001mentions above, Miles and SI probably have a damn sight better idea of what the rules are likely going to be than any of us, and more than they're allowed to otherwise say. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
