changedNew improvementsPreviously, the Economy screen did not display the Glory spent persuading a club to sell a footballer. Now, it appears in brackets when you view purchased footballers and in the total Glory spent on buying footballers.
changedNew improvementsWe have slightly improved AI behaviour during substitutions caused by injuries or red cards. If the AI is managing your team, it now tries to maintain your formation during substitutions (previously, the AI would bring on the best available footballers and alter the formation to maximise usage of their classes).
fixedBug fixesThe Search screen shows all the footballers you can see in the game world. If footballers in teams playing on other continents do not appear in the game, you cannot find them on the Search screen either. However, you could see national team footballers from other continents, yet the Search screen failed to display them. Now it will.
fixedBug fixesIf a footballer is transfer-listed, but you have not sent scouts to gather the list, trying to buy him directly from the club means they will demand the footballer's full value without a transfer discount - which can be quite substantial if you have well-developed scouts. This is by design. However, the value of footballers in foreign clubs used to drop as soon as they were transfer-listed, no matter if you sent the scouts or not. This meant you received a discount even if you had not sent scouts to other countries. This has been fixed.
fixedBug fixesWhen a footballer was sent out on loan for a year, his contract duration did not decrease.

New improvements

  • Recently, we allowed you to view the match history for other clubs. Now, we also show all upcoming matches for the current season on this screen.

  • Previously, the Economy screen did not display the Glory spent persuading a club to sell a footballer. Now, it appears in brackets when you view purchased footballers and in the total Glory spent on buying footballers.

  • The Top 10 National Team Footballers screen now highlights players representing the national team you manage.

  • We have slightly improved AI behaviour during substitutions caused by injuries or red cards. If the AI is managing your team, it now tries to maintain your formation during substitutions (previously, the AI would bring on the best available footballers and alter the formation to maximise usage of their classes).

Bug fixes

  • The Search screen shows all the footballers you can see in the game world. If footballers in teams playing on other continents do not appear in the game, you cannot find them on the Search screen either. However, you could see national team footballers from other continents, yet the Search screen failed to display them. Now it will.

  • If a footballer is transfer-listed, but you have not sent scouts to gather the list, trying to buy him directly from the club means they will demand the footballer's full value without a transfer discount - which can be quite substantial if you have well-developed scouts. This is by design. However, the value of footballers in foreign clubs used to drop as soon as they were transfer-listed, no matter if you sent the scouts or not. This meant you received a discount even if you had not sent scouts to other countries. This has been fixed.

  • When a footballer was sent out on loan for a year, his contract duration did not decrease.

  • For footballers turning 41, the system incorrectly displayed their contract length, increasing it by half a year. This made it look like the footballer would carry on playing, when in reality he should have already left the club.

  • The Top 10 National Team Footballers screen displayed stars next to the logos of the clubs the footballers played for.

  • We removed the "Hiring agents" item from the Economy screen, which carried over into the game from FTG2 by mistake.

  • Depending on a specific combination of tournament winners and the number of countries in the campaign, a team that should have entered the qualifying stage would sometimes qualify directly for the group stage of the main continental tournament.

  • In the second continental cup, after a group stage match, the third-place spot - which grants entry to the third continental cup - was not highlighted in a separate colour.

  • In very rare cases, the game crashed during a corner kick under a specific combination of actions.
