10 features we want to see in FM25 Console

[@benficademacaufan]

The trophy room is such a good idea. The Manager timeline is great and cool to see your history but as a journeyman player, I want to see the cabinet with specific trophies and if you hover you see your team and year, and if you click it sends you to that years compitetion

[@olanelson9877]

By the way, when a team's got new kit sponsorship, FM should have a way of making the jersey or kit colors look different

[@FM_Console]

Love that idea !

[@mansamusa2505]

30 season cap is a no go for me.

[@Pong652]

For me is the principal chenge they have to improve to 2025

[@FM_Console]

The problem is the limit on save files is controlled by PlayStation and Xbox I cant see them ever removing it unless they can get the save file size down.

[@elitristan3601]

FM25 needs a good looking 3D match engine. I know the game future games will run on unity but i don't think that it will look so good as FC24 or efootball. I love watching the matches like a real manager so i personally want good graphics. I rember that one EA football manager had the graphics from the fifa games. That was great.

[@FM_Console]

There were element of FIFA Manager that was great it just lacked the depth of FM and I think getting that balance right is their biggest challenge definitely

[@elitristan3601]

@@FM_Console I'm 37 now, it feels like FM was 20 years ago, so my memories are a bit hazy and I'm probably romanticizing a lot of things. I played it for hours every day for years. It will probably never be the same again, but I'm not giving up hope of a deep soccer manager with a good 3D engine. For the last 15 years I've been playing FIFA or PES and watching the cpu vs cpu games. I know that's a little bit crazy. I love putting together a team and watching them play. Unfortunately, the career mode and the former master league lack any depth, which is a shame. FUT has ruined every other mode. There are simply no more incentives to develop other modes further

[@FM_Console]

Yeah I’m 39 and had the glory days of pvp competitions over someone’s house all night long. That was plenty and I think the original theory behind ultimate team was great but as soon as micro transactions became a thing I tapped out. I haven’t paid for FIFA for 4 years just pick it up on ps plus or ea play. I quite enjoy just trading cards on my phone to be fair to make a million fut coins and then just building a team from that

[@scotthunter9852]

Agree with all of that. I would love the idea of being able to add logo packs, kit packs, real names and trophies just for the extra realism. I look at madden24 and you have the ability to download the real names for the college players so why can't Si do something like that. This one is top the ability to be able to change the colour of the attributes and set the rating of whats good. Squad registration is a big one too. Basically everything you've said I'm screaming out for as well.

[@FM_Console]

Good lad Scott I think we’ll be hearing very soon about initial teasers about the progress. They’ve hinted end of June for a while so who knows what we’ll get

[@scotthunter9852]

Other features I would like is being able to hire more staff than just the 5 and better scouting rather just the recruitment focuses ​@FM_Console

[@Toledo99]

go to preferences - advanced - custom skins colours -- this will let you change the colour of the attributes to your settings you wish

[@FM_Console]

This is not an option in FM console PS5 it’s only the screens I was showing the only visual formatting is under accessibility. I know there is in PC but there’s no advanced settings in Console

[@Toledo99]

@@FM_Console ah wow damn, i never realised that, for sure thats annoying

[@FM_Console]

@@Toledo99 No worries but you'd think it would be something easy to allow for console

[@middler5]

30 season cap i don't mind. Loading more than 10 nations would be of far more interest to me. Most of the nations you dont pick fall apart very quickly when not loaded.

[@andypostings8721]

Logo packs 100%🙏🙏

[@SiMaggio]

Good selection of requests, though some they might not be allowed to like logos. On the colours, and I'm not 100%, but if you press advanced settings I think you can change it there.

[@FM_Console]

Yeah, the logos are probably from a legal aspect always the trickiest feature request. You are correct about the colour change for accessibility purposes but it's brilliant for those who have different aspects of the colour blind spectrum but when I tried it gave you a different hue depending on the condition

[@thebig4812]

What about set pieces though?

[@FM_Console]

Set Pieces are frustrating wish they were more like the old PC as opposed to the new version

[@doctormarky]

Staff the way the pc has it, not just bronze, sliver or gold. I want to find someone who is great at fitness or working with young players.

[@FM_Console]

I 100% agree 👍 even if they couldn't make it exactly like pc if they highlighted what the key attributes for individual staff were under the assistant manager so you could maybe recruit a more youth focused coaching team under an assistant manager or a scouts with a particular expertise in a region I'd be happy!

[@TheRealTrevStorm]

It's minor detail that I might be alone on but when you apply for a job for a new club I wish you got the interview with the board like on PC rather than just the straight contract offer...

[@FM_Console]

True it's not one of those big details either it would make sense to have it to improve realism again

[@middler5]

There are loads of board preferences which either don't exist or don't show on console too. Such as signing u23s or a preference for youth etc.

[@jw278]

Unlimited season

[@FM_Console]

I know the problem they have is that the maximum save files on console are set but I get why people want unlimited seasons.

[@Layne_Cobain]

I wish I could play English League 15

[@FM_Console]

With the 30 season limit you might be a bit tight to get out of that one but yeah as I said mods/customisable databases would be great!

[@TheRealTrevStorm]

Go watch Lollujo's Wembley to Wembley series and see the trouble he's having trying to get out of tier 9...

[@ArsenalGamer364]

I just want different databases haha

[@FM_Console]

As in retro or custom databases from community?

[@ArsenalGamer364]

@@FM_Console probably lower leagues but maybe some retro ones

[@kingarthur7250]

30 season cap?? No. I don't move on. Disagree with you. AI needs to be better ie if teams compete against u better...pushes u all time..that's the key. Anything other than unlimited is a no go for me. The match engine needs to be really good. Unreal is btr than unity engine...but...lm not expecting gifa/ fc graphics...but...it has to be good enough to look real from a zoomed out view..ie animations...stadiums etc....also we need commentary not those same annoying crowd noises

[@FM_Console]

I get what you are saying here about the 30 season cap but if its linked to the maximum file size allowed on the consoles. But if thats a limitation imposed by console makers I don't see how they are going to fix it. I think you've got a point on ai and improved graphics and possibly audio commentary.
