I wish the players acted as humans.

They are all so clean.

Nobody is drunk on training. Not one player is taking drugs.
They don’t go to dance temples one day before the match or any other day.

Not one player is busted while betting for the opponent team.

Not one player is cheating his wife with a team-mate his wife (or YOUR wife :p)

They never have a car accident or an RSI injury due playing too much FM2008 :p

They never fight with each other in training.


And why we are busy why not allow that catastrophic disasters could happen?

It happened in real life before that an airplane crashed and the entire team died (Manchester United, Torino, a group of Surinam players called the Colourful 11, the Zambia national team, …)

You know, just the other day I was thinking to myself how cool it would be if my right back accidentally fell in to a garbage truck and his legs got severed. It would sure add to the realism if these types of gruesome accidents occurred!

because 'simulating' these events with real-life players has legal ramifications (it could be perceived as libelous).

and as for the 'tragic plane crash' thing - that's just a touch morbid, n'est pas??

Despite including this would mean more realism, it's not the sort of the thing that will help the game progress.

Therefore, why it isn't included in the game. I'm sure it's been thought of though.

I remember when I was managing Yeovil in FM06

"Your physio has told you disappointingly that Lee Johnson has fallen off his stairs at home and broken his left ankle. He will be out for 4 weeks to a month"

I died laughing

What if Anton Ferdinand beat some guy up, and then made up a laughable story in which to prevent himself getting found guilty. That would be a great addition!

this is a legal issue. I remember seeing a thread of this kind ended up with the thread starter being postmod, so be very careful :-)
but my personal opinion : such a realism might be a good additional but should only be applied to generated players...how bout it?

That bit about plane crashes is macabre and in poor taste, in my view. :thdn:

As for the rest, play the Sims, i'll stick to tactics, transfers, and training.
