Jay25H Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) going off previous FM winter updates FM21 winter update dropped on Monday 22nd of Feb at 10:03pm GMT while the 2nd part to the winter update didn't drop until Monday 15th March at 10:00pm GMT. Last years FM the first winter update didn't drop until Thursday 24th Feb 4:15pm GMT while the 2nd part of it came out on Thursday 24th March 4:36pm GMT. I think likely outcome of this years winter update could get dropped on us between sometime tomorrow earliest or Thursday at the latest.

And then if they test the last version of database, a few days more. And then if they say let's wait the Turkish transfer window close, we have to wait until 7th March. And if they test the last version of that database, a few days more... When you enter it says the winner will be contacted within a week of the competition closing. So considering the winner has the option to tailor their newgen to go into the new database update - i reckon we're looking at next Thursday 9th March before we get the release.

Caletti Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Looking at what SI is doing this year, the patch could drop at any time. For example, the patch before Christmas came out earlier than usual. I'm betting on mid-March but I won't be surprised if it comes out even today.

Popular Post Domoboy23 Posted February 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) Really? People would prefer to wait (if an update is/will be ready this week) until mid/late march just for a very small numbers of leagues with transfer windows that are still open? Absolutely gobsmacking. Especially bearing in mind that a lot of players won't play with these leagues and the first update would predominately be gameplay fixes and enhancements such as the ME, AI, Youth, UI etc and closed window updates. And that's from someone who plays in some of the leagues who still have windows open... I honestly aren't bothered about transfers being updated. I start the game at the beggining of the season as to when they were accurate, and if I really did need or desire to have transfer updates and perhaps some players attributes adjusted there's plenty of resources out there on the hideaway from people who update transfers on a weekly basis... It makes much more sense for the entire community if the gameplay and majority transfer update is released as soon as it's ready (in case something is wrong or picked up by members of the community) and then for the very small update to come 2/3 weeks later once the final windows close.

Popular Post we88y Posted February 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2023 I don't care about the transfers I just want the bug fixes and M.E changes. I've not played in two months so I'm keen to get invested in a save again having not really had a proper one since the end of FM22. Compared to previous versions I've barely played FM23. The beta launch was rough, and then there was a period of realising new features aren't very useful and being unable to stick with a save. The December update made the game run like a letterbox on my MacBook and by the time they fixed that life had taken over. I used to think SI were really great developers but it feels like the game no longer improves and recent features have mostly missed the mark. There seems to be a strange insistence on rarely releasing patches too.. Most games would realise there is an issue and publish a patch. Why does the transfer update and M.E fix need to be simultaneous? Why do we have to wait a month or two to fix an issue when a simple patch could be sent out, especially on PC? Hoping the patch comes out soon (hopefully today) and has all of the fixes that are required. 26 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there’s a lot of players out there who are content but I’m on the other end of the scale who can’t play and enjoy the game since beta. for me it’s been the most disappointing iteration to date, which is extremely disappointing as 22 was probably my most favourite of the series when I was at the end of my patience with FM and SI. Such a huge bump in the road. I wish patches were more frequent, or at the very least the transparency. This upcoming patch is crucial for me personally as I genuinely feel like I’ve been robbed this year, so far. I will remain hopeful, but this patch needs to come ASAP, and needs to be big. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today: 15% Tuesday: 30% Wednesday: 25% Thursday: 30% Friday 0% Sadly I still think the fact that the dev-ai updated was made only 5 days ago makes it more likely that a release may still be 2/3 weeks away...
