Update 95 (FM24) info + FM27 mini-review (Patreon)

Hello everyone,

In Update 95 for FM24 will be updated Albania+, Hong Kong, Montenegro/Montenegro+, Luxembourg, Faroe Islands, Bermuda and Bahamas.

• Albania+ - added changes of formats in competitions, added changes in player rules

• Hong Kong - added changes in player rules

• Montenegro/Montenegro+ - added changes in player rules

• Luxembourg/Faroe Islands/Bermuda/Bahamas - some smaller changes to make them work better

This week I worked on updating some things for FM24, the biggest one is Albania+, where are added format changes in all levels until 2027/28 season, in Hong Kong are added player rules changes and rest have some either player rules changes or some updating how things work.

Right now voting for FM27 plus versions Czech Republic+ is on top and I worked on it this week too, so it will be ready first or second day when I get my hands on editor. Second is Slovenia+ so I will start working on that, but things still can change.

I tried FM27 like I guess most people and it is an improvement from FM26, but to me it feels like a patch that should been made for FM26. There are still some things missing:
- looking at the club historical stats (you can only see them as graph, but you can't see the statistics from each season)
- controling reserve/youth teams (you can't made special tactics or choose their line-ups)
- updated substitiution rules (in reality in most competitions if you make substitution in first half it's not using the 3 stops and if player have head injury he can be substitute anytime, both are not in game)
- UI is better but still not great, moving between nations is still like some kind of mini-game where you can't move outside of a box
- you can't see more information about stadiums (what teams are playing there, which competitions can be played there, what matches were played there
- you can't see what players each team register for competitions (this is something that is more for me, because based on that I can see if AI fully understands player rules)
- this is more personal taste but I don't like the "pastel" feeling from colors when creating manager

I have to wait to release to test AI, I want to know if it is still dumb in amateur competitions, where if you simulate 20 years, amateur teams have in first team 80-100 players which just destroys any kind of immerison and it's like that for years. So if the AI is smarter than the game is 6/10, if not than 5/10, because it's just more polished FM26 (which I gave 3/10). I don't recommend buying it for 60 euros, because I don't believe it's worth that much (20-30 euro would be more fair), but everyone can now try it make their own decision.

But I will be making databases for FM27, again first 2-3 weeks there will be daily updates after release. Next week I will make voting for first daily update.

As always thank you for your support and I wish you nice weekend :)
