jt361 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Youth intake gets lower and lower every year. Some countries (especially unloaded ones) do not produce a youth intake at all, even major nations like Brazil and Argentina. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Andrew James Posted December 2, 2020 SI Staff Share Posted December 2, 2020 The latest update contains a fix for this issue. We’ve increased the leniency for top clubs’ player count in non-playable leagues which should increase the likelihood of certain clubs receiving youth intakes each year. The fix is save game compatible but this doesn’t mean that loads of new newgens will start appearing in all nations in your save straight away. Newgens have a pre-generation date around 3 months before they appear in game, so the fix will apply to the next pre-generation dates, rather than next intake date. I also want to clarify that the amount of newgens that generate in the first season in non-playable leagues shouldn’t be expected every season. We use newgens to replace retiring players and keep the overall player count relatively consistent, in FM21 there are more retirements than usual in the first season, which we think is a result of more free agents at game start and the COVID 19 financial implications meaning many clubs won’t offer as many contracts. So after the inflated first season intakes, the game balances out and the player count in these inactive leagues is deemed acceptable and therefore they may not receive intakes again for some time. We are restricted in the amount of players we can add to non-playable leagues, and the numbers in these leagues are intentionally much lower. If you want to guarantee high numbers of newgens from a specific nation, then you’ll need to add that nation as a playable league, which can be done at the start of a new game, or midway through a save via the dropdown menu. This will likely require some further tweaks and we think there are still some issues with total player count 10+ years into saves, we’re working hard to iron these out and any future fixes will be save game compatible too. Hopefully that all makes sense! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks again for your patience. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahuelzn Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hi @Andrew James, in a similar note, I want to know if this is working as intended or should I report it as a bug. The first batch of newgens for youth teams (when you start a new save), all have between 15 and 16 years. No newgen is generated with 17,18 or 19 years in the youth teams. No matter how you set up the custom league (for example, u20), or the minimium age in advanced rules. Is this a known issue, is working as intended or should I report it?

Daveincid Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 vor einer Stunde schrieb Andrew James: We aim to keep around the same amount, but a slight increase is preferable to decrease. Due my testing with FM21 with all leagues loaded, there is quite a big increase of very high PA-players (180+) in year 2045. It was quite difficult to verify the results due the genereal newgens-bug. But IMO the problem itself is less the high PA-players, it's more the fact, that they can reach their PA in most cases. So the average high CA concerns me much more. I was able to lower that effect in FM20 with a custom increase of injuries-file aswell as a custom lower-youth ranking-file. So this combination gave me a much better replication of the database at the start vs the future ingame. I haven't the ressources to create such a huge test for fm21 in a short period of time on my own. But it would definetly worth testing I can offer one PC with a 3950x to run a specific test if my help is appreciated Cheers Daveincid 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player count dropped from 88k to 86k. I have 27 playable leagues loaded. Before I started the save, I loaded all international players from North america, south america, asia and africa. So the total player count when I started was actually higher than 88k but I can't remember an exact number. I only noticed this was happening after discovering the various threads.

When the save is generated for the first time and especially if you've used "Add Players To Playable Teams", youngsters may be older than whatever value was set for minimum age in the Transfer Rule. However and after that and in every subsequent youth intake, the age of the newgens should be based on that setting. If it's left unticked, by default the age is 16, so newgens should always be 15-16 years old on intake day. But if you say that modifying this setting doesn't work (like putting 14 years old or 18 years old but newgens are still generated with an age of 16), then I would qualify that as a bug. To be honest, 16 is a good age for a newgen: it gives enough time to train them a bit and fix their obvious flaws without too much pressure. When a player hits, 18yo they really need match time in official games to progress and training won't be enough anymore. So a two to three years buffer zone is nice. You're not pressured to play or loan a player who needs his fundamentals sorted out, but you're not also waiting for too long to grow like when you generate them at 14 yo or something.

I think 14 the lowest you can select. But you will mess up the whole database if you do this. Players will have too much time to develop.

The range is 14-25. Anything older than 18 is hard to develop, and a 14 yo would essentially be the next Rooney in how precocious they are. Sometimes it's even a red flag: you can be suspicious about the physical fitness of a kid who's already played two or three whole seasons of senior football at 16 or 17... 15-16 is a good compromise for most countries, but it may be altered depending of how football is set up in a given nation. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes will be save game compatible when they’re ready and will be rolled out at the earliest opportunity. It has required some fundamental changes to how newgen generation is approached in inactive leagues, and we hope the result will be a better and more consistent spread of youth intakes across the globe than we’ve ever had in previous versions of FM. Youth Intake numbers are a very complex and delicate balancing act, and your patience is still greatly appreciated while we try to get this right. Nice! Thanks for the update. Waiting for the patch to start my save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahuelzn Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) 1) it bypass the minimum age you set In the rules 2) for countries than don't have youths created in the database, there is a gap between the first team and the youth teams, so for 3 or 4 seasons, there are almost no new players getting in the first team. 3) You have two leagues, u20 and u17. And you literally only have players with 16 years playing in the u20! And I remember playing in Oman on FM20 with youths with 17/18 years on my first season. So it looks like a bug.
