[@ChesterRGC]

How about a video of "HOW TO SAVE TIME IN YOUR SAVES" Most of us are already spending too much time on it, we should learn a way of playing without losing all our social life

[@Hullabaloo112]

New save idea: you must route your VPN to the country you’re managing for the duration of your play through

[@n1kola9]

This is like a dealer making you buy more drugs and give up on rehab.

[@theqaz1828]

[@WillMidgeRichards]

And I’m here for it

[@androidbluat]

Most overlooked feature is create a club. It's so fucking fun to design a team from scratch and watch them grow.

[@maymunity7942]

It's a save I always do. I've designed a whole crest, kits and 3d kits just so It looks as authentic as possible! Of course, out of all things I always just end up doing a vanarama to prem lmfao. I do always recommend a journeyman to break up the pace of a 1-team save.

[@pangallagher6222]

i agree, but the create a club *feature* is garbage, i always use the pregame editor for that. you can cusomise so much more and make it so much better and more immersive

[@prevara5162]

The administration takeover save is a great way to build that world beating team of players with 18 pace and nothing else

[@aussieaussie4848]

Musterman is how I play FM and it can be an absolute nightmare with terrible scouts in lower leagues. A lot of bad players have joined my team but it makes it so much more rewarding getting a player that can dominate

[@panenkafm2055]

Same here! Training reports and ratings earn you a spot in the team. Form determines if you keep it. Scout reports get you signed. Playing blind is playing best.

[@adewolecoleadetayo9360]

Zealand forgot probably the most important one, the Head coach save, where you are the coach of the team and nothing else, your director of football handles transfers, contract negotiations and all that.

[@-Lenny_]

Load FM does a series based on that. I’ve tried it before and I usually make one alteration to the rule set. I add A rated scouted players to the transfer targets, if the DoF can do a deal great if not you move on. I think it makes since as if you had a load of A rated players scouted you would normally sign them.

[@ArthurCDoyle]

I survived until around 4:15 when he started talking about taking players back to their original clubs. That Dortmund save would be awesome

[@yura50597]

A great save idea is in Scotland. So Dumbarton a team that is currently is the 4th division of Scotland won the first 2 Scottish League titles all the way in the 90s. 1890s So here is your job, regain Dumbarton's Scottish throne from Celtic and Rangers. The win condition depends on when you stop having fun, so it might be your first win of a Scottish Premiership, might be when you establish dominance over Scotland so win like 5 leagues in a row, or do a treble. The loose condition is simple, if any team besides Rangers and Celtic wins the premiership before you do, you are done. Go do a different save. P.S. - For me I just had a save with Elgin City so I don't feel like going back to Scotland.

[@pangopango3939]

To make it fair, the lose condition should only apply when Dumbarton has made the top flight.

[@craigratio]

@@pangopango3939Also if you get there and manage to dominate the old firm only for Hearts, Hibs or Aberdeen go on a mad run and win the league. That’s just brutal luck. Shouldn’t really stop the save for that.

[@brendanchoo7507]

7:56 Seca and Pawlak got a nice tan in the summer break I see

[@n1troni]

Fun save ideas for everyone is try managing outside of top 5 leagues. There are 5 continents full of national leagues, cups, various iterations of champions league. U might even fall in love with a random country like i did in my Vanuatu save. And uwill never have the opportunity to buy the same players as in europe if you are in another continent your repuation is so low and its a real challenge

[@NateMegOfficial]

Love doing these, or some super modded extreme version of an RTG.

[@azza2k]

Another cool save is finding a custom league database and taking over your local semi-pro team IRL I did it in Australia taking Macarthur Rams (team I played for growing up before I realised I would never make it pro) to the A-League from about 4/5 divisions down. Were even some guys I played with growing up in the save across the divisions which made it really special

[@TheGfxJG]

Something I've been doing this year is basically, creating real-life players (either retired, or by removing them with the pre-game editor), and playing out their hypothetical manegerial career. Currently I'm playing as Ezequiel Lavezzi, started at Estudiantes (his RL first club), and then simply played from there - I had hoped to visit his clubs in order, that sadly didn't happen, but the end goal is simple - In his case, win the CL with Napoli. And of course, his coaching staff is players he played with IRL - My assistants are Cavani and Hamsik! I started a similar one with Yaya Toure, but it didn't have a clear end goal in the same way as Lavezzi did. It's reignited a lot of fun into FM for me!

[@rizfarchan_]

"Maybe you're just a giant Dortmund fan and I'm describing your fantasy" I feel called out, Zealand.

[@00die00991]

Christmas is how I normally play and I’ve had some great saves out of it. I also like the scenario you can download which removes all contracts so you have to rebuild your whole squad but every other team does the same.

[@oliverfeeley7371]

We used to that with my mates on championship manager pick 4 clubs between us.. never used clear the all the clubs but all the big ones . Madrid utd etc... and we all used to battle to sign players.. great fun

[@badjaress]

I have an idea for a save. It is similar to the director of football, but the opposite. You are only the manager, you just go to the games, and do the training. All of the other stuff, like buy and sell players, it's a task for the Director of Football. With that, you will be forced to play and work with the players that your director of football gets to the team. I think that it is a nice challenge.

[@simonwilliams567]

sounds like the Sunderland model.

[@RacingFromTheBack]

This is the way I normally play, the DOF sources all the players but I do get the final say, also the DOF is responsible for all incoming offers and he has the final say so I never know if he will sell my star players

[@nemotoad9315]

The Head Coach challenge

[@brycefloyd3744]

I recently found out about this game and been watching a lot of your videos and have been waiting for this game to go on sale, hopefully. Keep pumping out the great videos.

[@blirt1653]

Great video and I see you are trying to show how people can get creative and play what I call non-Vanilla FM. I only play FM in a joint save with one of my friends. We always start off with a Vanilla save on every new FM but after that we play around with custom universes as it makes it very fun. Our most recent save is in Japan where there has been a fictional takeover of all the clubs, increasing reputation and budgets hugely. We have done a few seasons and now plan to leave our clubs and take over other clubs in Japan to try and topple our previous powerhouses.

[@MikeThomassen]

I've done two things to really love playing FM again. Director of Football, and signing 30+ years old players. Those two saves has saved my FM-playing mood :) DoF - Sign an Assistant to be the "first team coach", including tactics and everything, and I'm the DoF outside the field. 30+ - I can only sign players that has turned 30 years old. This forces me to rethink my approach and tactic every 2-3 seasons, and it's really fun :)

[@alexandre526]

On those though times for Ajax, I'd see a "hypothetical" save where you make all the players who led the team to the UCL semis come back to the club :)

[@tabletbrothers3477]

Thing is, you can do a chief Scout simulator save. Just delegate all responsiblities other than scouting (including buying/selling players). Dictate your scouting focuses. Once you find a player you think fits the team you can suggest them as a target.

[@bigfudgeUK]

I have a save idea, it's a weird one and I don't imagine there will be many people who would find this fun but it starts with picking whatever team you like and using whatever playstyle you like with them. Then, each season create a new manager and assign them to whatever team you like, use the IGE to max out the managers stats and give them team they manage loads of money, set the staff responsiblities to give almost everything to staff save for match day stuff then relinquish control of them as you progress through your next season you can watch as they rebuild the team. It's good if, like me, you struggle to decide which team to manage yourself and/or you'd love to see certain teams succeed in a save beyond your own. I've got the English leagues db and even though I manage in the German leagues I'm currently watching Great Wakering Rovers and Wakering Sports FC battle for the Essex Senior League trophy, they're 2 tiny teams from the village I was raised in and it is genuinely quite a lot of fun watch them move up the ladder. I've also seen MK Dons and Southend United play European football on this save which is just wild. You could also just use the pre-game editor to start all of these teams off in the topflight if you wish but its more about the journey for me!

[@charleslucas911]

What got my interest back was starting a network save against my best mate We both started in a relatively equal position, belgian top division with midtable teams With the aim to sort of journeyman our way to success We have just finished our eighth season we're I narrowly avoided relegation with West ham after joining in February. Highlights of the save so far Europa league victory with Middlesbrough a couple seasons back Taking the Saudis to a world cup quarter final Finally getting my first head to head victory against my mate on this save (at the 8th attenpt) with a 7-0 demolition job to practically guarantee survival at West ham And finally taking the Brazil job after leaving Saudi Arabia His highlights include A sacking from freiburg , despite building an incredible squad he could only limp to 8th and was promptly sacked A sacking from Middlesbrough after relegation from the premier league, this resulted in the Middlesbrough glory years where I jumped into the dead man's shoes and brought unbridled success to a squad he deemed shit Despite a better head to head record against me, he has no major honours excluding a couple second tier league wins (series B , Championship) Whereas I have international honours winning the WAFF championship 2x with Saudi Arabia and the aforementioned Europe league win with Middlesbrough As we head into the 9th season I have just left West ham for the vacant Juventus job and I have a copa america to bring back to Brazil Meanwhile he has been rejected by Lazio in favour of Brendan Rodgers and looks set to stay at lower midtable Brentford for the following season

[@bloodshed_]

Last week when I was home sick I decided to start a new save in Italy. But instead of just heading in I simulated 5 years and took over Pescara. A decent team in Serie C with a 20k capacity stadium and ok facilities. The end goal is to make an Italian only team that can challenge for CL. To get back up and established in Serie A I allowed myself to sign players from other contries (can't sign non-eu players in Serie B and C). The save is great fun! We won the first season in Serie C with 99 points and are currently first in Serie C with a few points after 24 games (no idea what the other teams are doing..).

[@Capry77]

So one save I did recently that made me have a bit of fun was putting a limit on the max I could spend on a transfer. I set a max limit of 5 million (AUD, so it was peanuts) and did a create a club feature in Belgium. It meant my favourite part of the game, finding wonder kids, was absolutely a necessity. And it meant that a big sale was a plethora of new signing I could bring in. The save did get stale cause I hit the peak of player I could get and could only get to the champions league knockouts, but for a good 7-8 season save, I'd recommend it.

[@morlath4767]

One thing I like doing is pick a bunch of "old" tactics - from literally the OG 2-3-5 or W-M, to Ajax's Total Football, or whatever formations a single club used over a period of time - and then play a save where I have to organically move from one tactic to the next without it destroying the club's progression.

The Bilbao idea gave me an idea: What if you set the youth rating of every country to the same level, or even randomize them some way? That way you’d be encouraged to scout where you normally wouldn’t, since the odds of finding the next Messi somewhere like North Korea are so much higher

I know a lot of people don't like international management but I like it occasionally and one I like to do is manage a country that has large numbers of dual nationals then seeing how strong they would be if all of their dual nationals chose to play for them. I would generally only change newgens and who haven't chosen in real life. Sometimes in combination with a club team in that nations main league and build the quality of the league at the same time. Ireland is a fun one but I will branch this one out at some point. This video has reminded me I need a bilbao save in my life before the next FM I have done a fewxin previous FMs and its very fun.

[@pangallagher6222]

there's also custom databases that clear all players/staff from the database if you want to do that kind of save, makes it way less complex

[@Anguss98]

For anyone in comments saying the game is too time consuming etc, I strongly suggest you try FM touch on one of your devices. I used to play FM on PC but due to having a kid and other commitments I don’t have the time. I have been playing the touch version since February and honestly can’t complain! It’s in depth enough for you still to be fully immersed but takes much less time to get through and to load between days plus being able to play on the go helps a lot, currently in 2031 with a Wrexham save and absolutely loving it

[@JoseLuisRodriguez-vh8uy]

I'm currently in a combination of various of this ideas on my current. Picked Hamburg to do a "back to glory"; Only sign players of german descent; and the one that has made it more difficult a Yankee policy:No long hair or beards. Fun times

[@Ryuzakku]

My personal favourite scenario, and the one I am running this year is the "Assman chaos" Where only the assman/DOF has control of transfers in.

[@wwanimator]

I had a lot of fun (and some frustration) playing the opposite of Director of Football mode - I let my staff handle all singings and contracts and tried to win stuff with the players they bought me. The AI isnt really great at squad building and keeping everyone happy was basically impossible but it adds a different challenge to fit all the random players the AI bought into a tactic that works

[@Moizt47]

one save i had a lot of fun this year was a journeman save but you leave all contract negotiations and buying selling players to your director of football . how i did was it was i started unemployed and no badges and im only allowed to do one contract renewal so i would go to a club figure out the team make a tactic leave all transfers and contracts to my dof and then just be losing key players or signning players which might be great or just make me go why would you sign him and you gotta use em. I would move clubs after either i get a contract offer from some other club or after i have achieved a goal at my current club which could be a trophy stability a continental trophy or just getting sacked. i think this would be the inverse of the dof save you listed which would be fun for ppl who enjoy the tactical portion of football manager but dont really like scouting or negotiating transfers since i had to use all sorts of systems from 442 to uber defensive systems to succeed at differnt clubs based on there players and then dof plugging in random signings which sometimes are good sometimes bad and sometimes i end up retraining them to work in a different position based on there attributes/traits for my system or shift to a new system to include the new players

[@Henrichs1004]

this came out at the right time

[@simonwilliams567]

My favourite saves are: Wrexham - Won Carabao, FA Cup, Europa League, UEFA Super Cup, World Club Championship, Papa Johns, Charity Shield, Multiple Premier Leagues, Multiple Champions Leagues and all in 9 seasons. One season did the quadruple. Dinamo Minsk - So far in 7 seasons, 20/21 domestic trophies (lost a super cup final), 1 champions league and also was runner up once in the champions league. Only 30 league games a year so can really focus on europe with the league being easy.

[@A_Baguette_]

I needed this

[@Nosceteipsum166]

I have a plethora of saves with different rules and goals. I simply can't keep only one save and that's it. I have saves where I can only buy young players, or a max fee per deal, a single nationality, rebuilding the whole team with no money, recreate tactics from IRL managers, going lower division to UCL title and so on. Now I'm kinda stopping everything to wait for FM 25, but this rotation between saves kept me playing the game for many months.

[@ad-zh5ot]

Many of these already have a database on the internet or Steam workshop. Most notably the "all players removed from database". You can google, it's mcuh easier than simulating 40 years.

What really rekindled my passion for FM after a year of changing saves every 2 week and taking long breaks was a youth intake only save starting from the absolute bottom from the country of your choice.

The "Bilbao" was something I always ended up on when playing a kinda similar simulating game, Pro Cycling Manager. Always ended up trying to make a Norwegian only squad etc. And I imagine it can be fun within FM as well, but prolly way harder, since you need more people than within a cycling team. Still always had fun with it within PCM at least. Edit: Wouldnt the last one give the full match actually....90+ minutes, and not 30-60 minutes? Cus youre watching the whole match? I'd assume you would want ot make it last and not speed up things. But maybe im wrong on that part.

Can you make a video of the full history of the usl league. All of the history like it's started and were it at now.

Super league database is also something new and fun

Random Names is a little bit more complex than just renaming the players. Yes, they maintain their Unique ID's (and behind the scenes data like pictures; seeing a news conference pop up on my save for "Neil Rose" and having Steven Gerrard's secondary picture pop up throws you off a little) and in general they're mostly the same, but sometimes their birth dates are changed, or their nationalities are actually different, and the stats aren't always identical. Back in the FM08 days, sometimes the players just got absolutely mauled. I've seen the likes of Pavel Nedvěd, Petr Cech and John Terry "turn into" non-league gripe. On FM22 I've also had Liverpool's Alisson Becker actually be Argentinian, and Mbappe was 2 years older and born in February instead. I've also had players entirely disappear, like Erling Haaland and Alessandro Del Piero. That said, they aren't lying when they say it's "random" I suppose!

My favourite is to play as a top club outside of the big 5 leagues so like Portugal and the Netherlands, Ajax and Benfica are always fun :)

My save for 2024 (and likely 2025) is massive. Start at my "I was born in this city" club. The goals i then to do a "Glory Hunter Lights" (win all of the traditional top 5 leagues&cups). I set myself an additional challenge of using a new tactic at every club and a tactic that fit the country I was in. (4-4-2 in england. 4-2-3-1 in Spain. Etc.) Win the euro and WC with my home nation. And then make it to the top of the ingame HoF with a club from my home nation, if I haven't already. Using only players from my home nation.

I hate having the regens soo I plan to make a save based in 2010 on fm24 get players I know and see play day to day and work from there

[@CoachDamo]

How did you land a Hyderabad FC kit? Haha.. I used to work as a video analyst for them. They're in quite a bit of financial turmoil.

[@livwake]

Singalo if I had to guess

[@andreanecchi5930]

I like to make only one save for each FM, I only change teams if I get fired, in fact I've been playing with Cliftonville since November

[@DjAstro90]

The last save is a very good idea tho

[@simonschreurs4048]
