FM24 "CUSTOM SAVE GAMES & SCENARIOS (20.12.24)

Hello everyone!

I am very pleased to present you a save-game of my January update.
But first I want to give you some informations of what's included in this months update. It is one that I have edited and tested over a period of 2 months, as the changes are very big compared to the previous version.

A total of 10 files have been updated, 9 of which (all except the CA/PA update) are part of my ‘Vision 2050’.

What is ‘Vision 2050’?

Vision 2050 is my newly developed model to predict the future of the football world based on existing data for all nations to a certain degree.

This includes, among other things:

- projected population growth/demographic development until 2050

- predicted economic growth

- Stability in the country

- Factoring in new club competitions such as the much larger and financially more potent Club World Cup

This all sounds like a lot of PR talk. :D What impact will this have on the game world exactly?

1. the strength of players from nations which, according to my data, have a positive prognosis both in terms of population and economy, is very likely to become significantly stronger as the game progresses. I won't tell you which nations are particularly lucrative, but let's put it this way...increased scouting in Africa is worthwhile ;)

2. nations that have a negative prognosis are very likely to deteriorate visibly. Both qualitatively and quantitatively

That also sounds good. What will the football world look like in the distant future? Can I check this somehow?
You can! Check out one of the biggest test-saves I’ve done for FM24. It’s not in 2050 yet so the impact isn’t at 100% yet but it’s already clearly visible.

Save game setup extremely large 2046 + 2050
- All international matches have been simulated with full details (both national team and club competitions)

General CA-balancing results:
CA190+: 0 (modded db in 2023) vs 2 (save game in 2046) vs 6 (save-game in 2050)
CA180+: 8 vs 12 vs 13
CA170+: 29 vs 35 vs 49
CA160+: 112 vs 166 vs 115
CA150+: 282 vs 301 vs 317
CA140+: 675 vs 772 vs 800
CA130+: 2173 vs 2074 vs 2205
CA120+: 5900 vs 5352 vs 5799
CA110+:12824 vs 11430 vs 12196

U21 players:
CA130+: 198 vs 164 vs 203
CA120+: 630 vs 583 vs 711
CA110+: 1435 vs 1703 vs 1835

Summary:
Based on the worlds population growth, there is a slight increase expected at the top level, which is replicated really good without having too many worldclass players. The CA-level of U21 players is also very good, based on that numbers, I expect a further increase in quantity until 2050. (which is now confirmed)
This is exactly how I wanted it to be so I’m very happy with the result so far:)

Example of large growth/success:
- Zambia (expected population growth of over 100%) increased their quality by 6% at the top (which is about 6 CA-points by average – which is a lot!)
- Senegal became 3rd in 2 world cups in a row (2030&2034). The best result of an african nation in the world cup history!

Example of stagnation/decline:
- Portugal (expected population loss of 11%)
- Haiti (Despite a population growth of about 30%, their political situation affects growth in a negative way)
- Nigeria (Nation stagnates due to political instabilities/corruption beside an expected population growth of over 100%)
- Latvia (Nation looses quality due to an expected population decrease of over 20%)

This was just an extremely small insight. There is so much more to discover in this save. Have fun!

CA/PA adjustments:
Like almost every month, hundreds of players have been updated. In addition, the quantity of players from Brazil, Argentina & Spain (lower third of the 1st league as well as 2nd and 3rd league) has been reduced as the CA of these players is far too high in relation to comparable nations.

This is it for this months update! I hope you like the changes:)

Providing feedback:
I'm happy for every feedback I receive via PM about that save-game. Let me know if you find something very odd. Depending on the amount of Messages, I might not respond to everyone, but I'll read it and make adjustments if I see a need for it.


Cheers
