RECRUITMENT REVAMP
To better understand the evolution of the recruitment process, we have had extensive conversations with leading Directors of Football, Data Analysts, Scouts and Managers over the last few years. All of those discussions have helped guide our changes to recruitment for FM 2023, and they fall into four categories: Squad Planner and Experience Matrix, Scouting, Agents and Recruitment Meetings.
Dive into more detail on our exciting changes to recruitment for FM23.
MATCH AI AND ANIMATION
One of the main focuses of our Match team was to overhaul the logic powering our AI managers, making them more intelligent than ever before. There have also been a significant number of updates to our Player Decision and Match Engine AI across the pitch, while improvements to our animation engine and changes to Team Instructions ensure FM23 is as close to real life as possible.
Find out how our Match AI and Animation changes to FM23 will enhance your game this year.
OFFICIAL UEFA CLUB COMPETITIONS
This is more than just a standard licence. For the first time in Football Manager history, we are able to include fully licensed UEFA Club Competitions, making those Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights feel even more special. When approaching all of the upgrades, enhancements and functionality related to UEFA’s licensed assets, our team aimed to recreate the UEFA look and feel, and the excitement generated by those big competitions.
SUPPORTER CONFIDENCE
We wanted to amplify the importance of fans in the game. By introducing Supporter Profiles, we are able to provide a snapshot of your club’s fanbase. Elsewhere, the newly-included Supporter Confidence will sit alongside your Board Confidence, and will reflect the current mood among the fans. This will help to keep tabs on the supporters’ opinion of you, and whether you’re the right person for the job.
Let’s dig into more on the increased importance of your club’s supporters in FM23…
DYNAMIC MANAGER TIMELINE
Whether you’ve taken a team from the lower leagues to cup glory over many seasons, or you’ve just fought off relegation in your first campaign, we know just how important your Football Manager save is. For FM23, we’ve continued that theme by introducing the Dynamic Manager Timeline – a new way of showcasing and tracking the achievements and milestones of your career.
