Gaming FM2017 Football Legends - Classic Player Draft - S2 Holiday Updates

Should I allow Managers/Clubs to make transfer every summer or should I lock in the teams drafted fo

I played a full season of this about a month ago :lol: Only reason I have a rough idea
(Part of the reason I was willing to drop out)
 
Seem less fun that way, I have the game but don't want to look at that database. Also it really doesn't matter which legend you pick here they are all very very good, the results of this draft would be more or less random.
 
I have the game, but haven't done it. I will do it after the draft though, to play it

It's really not worth it. Every player is world class and are natural in about 4 positions.
It's kinda overkill with what they have done. I know this is a legend pack, but they basically made everybody stupidly good. Pele and Maradona are supposed to be the best of all time, yet I can find a few hundred better than them
 
Wait.... You guys haven't flipping downloaded this database have you???
I looked it up, found a few ridiculously rated non-obvious players (tbh they are fairly underrated in our drafts, but I don't think the difference is that big) and decided to ignore it and draft by my personal opinion :lol:

I'm regularly checking already drafted players though.

465 remaining players to be picked
13 picks in the last 24 hours: if we succeed in keeping the rhythm, the drafting process will finish on August 23rd hopefully :D

I have a way of speeding up the last 5 or 10 picks of the managers which is what Macern did if it starts to go too slowly

If you do the same thing he did be prepared to want to break your keyboard!
 
Man I thought the miracle would happen after so many picks but good pick @Raees

Thanks mate, ps: for a second I thought you was taking the piss and picked the United legend as manager.

Forgot to mention this at the time but suprised at some of the managers missing from the picked ones actually. Jock Stein stands out as one I considered going for that hasn't been picked.
 
As onenil said, we'll draft 500 players, the database have 2700 more (all legends, not some Paintsils). It would be definitely interesting to see them perform.

2700 legends spread across the WORLD. That's probably ~1500 at European clubs and the 500 we pick will heavily affect specific teams, typically the CL ones. Or do you think Real, Barca, Bayern or Juve won't get screwed out of all their stars.

I'm not commenting or complaining about overall pool quality, just pointing out that a Season 1 CL campaign would have several teams playing reserves (those greyed out made up players). Many will bankrupt themselves trying to bridge the gap...

PL teams will dominate the CL again. Wahey!!!!

Yeah that is a great shout, but to be fair hard to find fault with any of the managers picked - they're all jizz-worthy. Stein has to be one of the more complete managers though, would assume his fm profile is pretty majestic.
 
Please use this list, Skizzo and Joga have switched to Valeriy Lobanovskyi

They won't as Onenil is setting up the database

Yeah actually there probably won't even be relegation as that could be troublesome for me. I know Macern removed it from the modern FM one and I can see how that would make things less problematic down the line
 
I have a way of speeding up the last 5 or 10 picks of the managers which is what Macern did if it starts to go too slowly
Think we should stick to the 4hr rule, which would hopefully encourage more managers leave picks if they are not going to be around, and the ones that are will keep it going quickly.
