Major update29 Aug 2026HALFTIME Manager 1.1.0The biggest update since launch. At the centre: a game world covering all of Europe, and an economy that fits the division you play in. All of Europe · Alongside "Small Europe" there is now a second world: 52 associations, 199 sections, 3,064 clubs, 55 competitions . Real league structure, invented clubs. Switch under Mods, Game worlds. · The European cups hand out their places by association r…
Some Minor Changes and Fixes · A board sponsor now delivers exactly the benefit printed on it. Before, the second partner from the same trade counted only half and the third a quarter, and nothing anywhere said so: a main sponsor and a board with +6% TV money each came to 15 instead of the 18 percent you could read off them. · From the second season on, the season forecast stood still. It showe…
This one is about the bank. A loan used to be a single number, and rebuilding it turned up a few things that had been wrong for a while. The bank · You make a request, five lenders answer : with an offer, with less money, or with a refusal and a reason. One request per week. You pick the amount, the term and the right to make overpayments, and whatever you ask for costs interest. · The base rat…
Transfer market · The weekly cost of a free agent is now stated correctly. · Free agents add 35 to 75 percent to their wage, because no transfer fee is due. That did not apply to expired contracts, even though both sit in the same list and look the same. Now they ask for the same. · UI: the offers column has been re-gridded. Matchday · A penalty or a dangerous free kick now shows the foul it ca…
World builder · The structure is now hierarchical: world, region, country, tier, division . It used to be a flat list in which "1. Liga" appeared six times, with the cups sitting next to it with no connection at all. · A world you built yourself now carries its own id. Before, the bundled world could mask it and start in its place. And a division now knows which division it is promoted into. ·…
Today's update comes with a few larger changes. Club statistics · New Club statistics tab: numbers for every club in your league pyramid, split by league, cup and European competition. Cup · The final is now played on neutral ground . · Main round matches are now shared out more evenly among the hosts Coach · At the end of the season your coach asks whether he may stay and names his price. · Yo…
This time it is almost all about things that were already there but never really worked. Crests and world · The crest you pick now actually shows up in the game. Before it just vanished, and you could not change it either. · 787 symbols to choose from, plus colour, size and position. · Names and sponsors now come from 53 countries instead of 6. The leagues stay the same, it just does not sound…
Youth Academy · Training now takes 36 instead of 84 weeks (tier 1) · UI adjustments for better clarity. · "End training" now shows the consequence: the expected rating against your squad average, and the weeks that cancelling buys you back. · AI clubs only take on graduates who come close to their starting eleven: around 13 instead of 45 percent . Those who do not make the jump leave the club.…
August 14 is the day - if everything holds up and the builds of these last days do their job, HALFTIME Manager will soon be in your hands. Until then there is plenty to do. As NickFreiZocktLP puts it: "The way the players are shown is odd ..." - and he is right. Animating footballers so that it actually looks good is anything but easy... 10 days to go... Matchday looks like football We went thr…
