Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm! I'm currently preparing this database to ensure everything is as accurate and polished as possible. I don't have a specific release date just yet but I will make an announcement as soon as the 10th Anniversary Ultimate Legends & Stars database is finalized and available for download. Your excitement and support mean a lot, and I'm committed to delivering the best possible experience. Stay tuned for updates, and get ready for an epic journey through football history!

Thank you for your excitement! It has indeed been a challenging but rewarding task to update the database, covering the last decade and ensuring all the original legends' IDs are accurate. Especially the mega facepack release, so all the IDs must match. Regarding the club's favored personnel, I typically retain those who have a significant historical impact on the club. However, I ensure that the focus remains on accurately representing the legends and stars. This means some adjustments might be necessary to reflect the most relevant and influential figures in each club's history. Your support and enthusiasm make all the hard work worthwhile. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the release. It's going to be worth the wait!

Its a massive update and as you know, I am a bit of a perfectionist so only release when it's ready. I'm working around the clock to ensure everything is as accurate and enjoyable as possible. Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm! I'll keep you updated on the progress. It's not going to be released this month.

Thanks for your question! This database focuses exclusively on legends and stars who have earned their place based on their achievements and impact on the game. Only players who have demonstrated significant merit and left a lasting legacy will be included. Therefore, former wonderkids who didn't live up to their hype will not be part of this database. The goal is to celebrate the true greats of football history and provide the ultimate legends experience for all players. Every single legend or star since 1880 will be included, leaving no room for wonderkids or any player who didn't do enough to qualify as a legend or a star.

Get ready to dive back into the world of football legends and stars!

Creating these databases is a labour of love for me, and hearing that they bring joy and excitement to fellow football fans like yourself is incredibly rewarding. I'm committed to maintaining the highest standards of quality and attention to detail in this new version, and I can't wait to share it with you and all the other fans eagerly awaiting its release.

Thank you so much for your kind words and your excitement! It means a lot to hear that you enjoyed the database back in 2014, and I'm honoured to have the opportunity to bring it back for another round of legendary footballing action. I'm committed to making this version even better than before, with more depth, and more excitement than ever. Get ready for an epic journey through football history – the best is yet to come!

I appreciate your enthusiasm and support! I'm glad to hear that you're excited about the database. What is the most important thing to me, is that you get the most enjoyment from it, 10 years ago, the orignal legends database was released and now a decade later, I bring to you and to the community, the final version, and it will be free and it will never be released again because no amount of sponsorship could repay or compensate for the amount of work and effort that goes into creating it and the same again every time it needs to be recreated. It will be free to everyone in the FM Community to download and enjoy. Think of it as a Goodbye gift. Your support means a lot, and I'm grateful to have fans like you who share my passion for football.

You're very welcome! I'm excited to share this journey with you. As for the number of legends in the database, it's quite extensive. I've painstakingly researched and included a wide array of iconic players spanning the entire history of football, from the late 19th century to the present day. While I don't have an exact count at the moment, rest assured that there are plenty of legends waiting to be discovered and added to your teams. From legendary goalscorers to midfield maestros and defensive stalwarts, you'll find a wealth of talent at your fingertips. Get ready to assemble your dream squad and lead them to glory on the pitch!

Hello! In order to retain competitiveness, clubs will start where they belong, this will be determined by a combination of reputation and team strength also taking into account media prediction once all the teams are ready. I will be focusing on creating a vibrant and dynamic footballing universe that reflects the rich history and legendary players of the sport. This means that certain clubs may experience changes in status based on their historical significance, achievements, and the presence of iconic players in their ranks. So while I shall be manually relegating or promoting a few clubs, here and there, you can expect to see a diverse and exciting mix of teams reflecting the storied legacy of football.

Thank you so much for the kind words! It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the database back in 2014, and I'm thrilled to announce its release once again. Your support means a lot, and I hope this new version brings back all the nostalgia and excitement of the original. And to celebrate its 10th Anniversary, it will be released once again.

Hi @MelvinMat This Legends database is the original legends database, work began in 2010 and was first released in 2014, so it's not the successor, it is the predecessor. The return of the legends database is a completely different database and since then you have the great work of the mad scientist and all the other legends creators that have followed since. But this one was the first. So all the others are successors to this Basically every legend or icon since 1880 to 2024 is here.

That's a fantastic idea! Incorporating throwback versions of the Champions League and European Cups would add an extra layer of authenticity and nostalgia to the ultimate legends database. It would give players the opportunity to relive iconic moments from football history and perhaps rewrite some of those legendary matches with their favourite teams and players. If you're interested in integrating these throwback versions into the database, you are more than welcome to do so and this database would be compatible with those type of mods.. It's all about creating the ultimate footballing experience, and I'm excited to explore this possibility further with you! This is a concept I have explored before, and it offers the potential for multiple downloadable options. One option would be the Ultimate Legends database in its standard form, including the usual competitions without any additional modifications. Alternatively, players could opt for the Ultimate Legends database enhanced with throwback versions of the European Cup, providing a nostalgic twist to the gameplay experience. Another possibility could involve combining the Ultimate Legends database with a customized world super league, allowing users to immerse themselves in a dynamic and personalized footballing universe.

You're very welcome! I'm thrilled to hear that you're diving into the world of throwback and legends databases. It's an exciting journey through football history, and I'm glad to have you along for the ride. If you have any more questions or if there's anything else you'd like to know about the database, feel free to ask. Enjoy the game, and may your footballing adventures be legendary!

Hi @JorgenThank you for the Welcome! Each legend and star featured in the game is already integrated within the database. Their age range typically spans from 15 to 25 years, reflecting the pivotal developmental years of their careers. Primarily, these iconic figures commence their virtual journey at the club where they initially made significant appearances, aligning with the age they were when they first debuted for that particular team. However, exceptions may arise, particularly for much older legends and stars, who are introduced into the game at their peak performance ages, generally between 23 to 26 years. Regardless of their age, players are assuredly situated at the club they represented during the corresponding stage of their careers.

That depends on what you mean by 'Retired Person'. If the player has retired from playing but is now a non-player still in the game as some kind of staff, then yes, those ones can be returned to player. If they are are fully retired, as the case may well be or just not in the database at all, then yes it's a case of creating a new one. Either way we try as much as possible to preserve the existing player/non player and only create a new one if there is no other choice.

Welcome to the Ultimate Legends & Stars 1844 - 2024 This Database covers the whole of Football History since 1880-2024. It is the original Legends Database which first appeared in 2014. It is the most accurate, best quality and most in depth Legends Database ever produced for Football Manager. This is the ULTIMATE LEGENDS GAME! To Celebrate it's 10th Anniversary, it is coming back bigger and better than it has ever been before. What sets us apart? We're not just another database. We're the result of meticulous research, extensive testing, and a commitment to accuracy that rivals the finest football analytics out there. With data sourced exclusively from FIFA, PES, UEFA, and other official statistics, you can trust that every player, every stat, is as real as it gets. Step into a world where every footballing icon from 1880 to 2024 is resurrected, ready to grace the pitch once more. But it's not just about the players. We've resurrected the managerial maestros, the tactical titans, and the chairmen who shaped football history. Can you outwit Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest or withstand the tactical genius of Jose Mourinho's Chelsea dream team? The challenge awaits, and the stakes have never been higher. And let's not forget the drama, the rivalries, the heated clashes that define football folklore. From the legendary battles between Clough and Revie to the resurgence of Blackburn Rovers, every moment is recreated with the authenticity and passion it deserves. So, are you ready to rewrite football history? Join us on the pitch, where legends are reborn, stars shine brighter, and the beautiful game reaches new heights of glory. Are you up for the challenge? Over 10 years Editing experience and with nearly 30,000 hours editing experience you can be assured of a flawless production. * Mega Face Pack Release * Guarantees No player is released into the game until fully researched and fully tested. The player will be at the club that they were at when they were the age that they start in the game. Only Legends and Stars will be created in this database, not players who had potential but never delivered on it. LEGENDS ICONS STARS Think Football Manager meets FIFA Ultimate Team! A LEGEND, ICON OR STAR is a player who mainly played at international level and / or won significant honours and / or played in the top divisions throughout career and a substantial amount of games. If they played for the same top club for long periods, then that would also be seen as a significant advantage whereas any significant periods in a lower division would diminish legendary and star status. Common Sense is used amid the plethora of research undertaken to ensure accurate ratings and using only historical evidence and data to determine the most accurate results in the modern football arena. These Legends and Stars will not start lower than the top 2 divisions in the nations they are starting in These Legends and Stars will not start at a club unless they played on at least 30 occasions for that club The earlier the players were born, the older they will be at the start of the game. Players ages range from 14 to 34, to give you a rough idea, a player born in 1800-1810 will start at 34 years old, whereas a player born in 2001 to 2010 will be 14 years old. There may be exceptions due to a player having to start slightly older either because they did not play at least 30 times for that club or that club does not exist anymore or that club is now playing in a division that is not in the top 2 divisions of the nation they are playing in. Players who start at a younger age will need to develop in order reach their potential, whereas the older a player is, the nearer to their peak potential they will be, and certain players will play having reached their peak and then players who start at an older age, the older the player is, they will have started to lose some of their ability, as in heading past their peak and starting to decline as a footballer. The better the player is potentially, the more likely that they will still start the game at a high current ability despite their advancement in years. If there are any legends or stars you would like to see in this database then please let me know and the relevant research will be carried out and I will do my best to get them included for you if they have not been previously researched and included already. Any QUESTIONS? Don't be Shy! *** COMING SOON ***

Bayern Defender turns around and shoots from distance past his own Keeper
Fenech commented on Fenech's issue in Player Behaviour
Thanks Michael. I understand that, however then I can only conclude that not all of the issues were fixed in the latest update because a lot of silly goals still being conceded. I would have thought the hot fix would have cleaned up all the issues. Therefore are we saying there will be another update soon? This FM feels different to other FMs esp. the match engine, were there significant changes made to the Match Engine for FM24? -
An amazing own goal from Bayern defender who turns around and shoots past his own keeper. Given that we just had a long awaited Hot Fix, I would have expected an issue like this to be included in that hot fix I have been carrying on my save, because it is supposed to be Saved Game Compatible? But now I am not so sure the update is Saved Game Compatible so my question is Is it Saved Game Compatible and this is a new issue or do I actually need to start a new save to benefit from this extensive Hot Fix just released? Your response is greatly appreciated. PKM & Video of Goal uploaded. Can confirm 100% that I am using the new hot fix update only just released.
