FM 25 DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

[Carmi88]

players taking the knee would be a great addition, get that on the wish list. Rainbow laces and captains armband as well please

I'm not going through a backlog of posts to decide if people are being serious or sarcastic here, but in regard to 'taking the knee'...

Include this in the game and FM will lose me forever. Covid wasn't included in past editions to allow escapism. This should be the same for other forms of nonsense in the world.

Love it: that's a definitely legitimate thing to be kneeling for.

I don't get to see these cuz I use 2D with 3D highlights.

Long live 2D (not a political statement) ;-)

Yes as the teams walk out the people holding the uefa logo in the centre circle are taking the knee.

So the players aren't taking the knee are they?

While you didn't directly say this, you implied it as general "taking the knee" in FM, which we'd assume would refer to players taking the knee, as that's what we think of.

So basically you're misleading people and spreading disinformation.

Now... all that said, aside from the fact that I fully support the inclusive agenda and when people call me "woke" I take it as a compliment ... given that FM is a football simulator, it really should have players taking the knee, when that happens IRL contexts.

I'm off to the feature requests forum now

God, I would take the complaining over women's football and weights over this nonsense. How did this subject even come up? 

Mods, do your job, please.

Nah, don't let them slink away into the shadows with their ghoulish views, let them exhibit just how backwards they are so they can be roundly mocked for it.  They'll probably just cry censorship otherwise.

And in the meantime, let's find a list of all the issues that these people find so abhorrent, and get every single one of them into FM.  Doesn't matter if they make sense or not, it'll just be fun watching the shade of puce they go when they hear about it.  And then maybe they'll either just crawl away into their little hovels, or they take a step back and wonder whether it's worth being so objectionable.

Alright, any more talk about "woke" will result in thread ban and/or infractions. This is the only and final warning. Anyone disagreeing with this can PM me.

Hopefully it's a key feature for 25. It's the most asked for feature for the last 15+ years
