Try asking that question again using punctuation and maybe I'll answer it.

If you want them you will have to retain the English players when you start a game. It is not the LLM way, but since the huge database was removed, the only way you will get players at these clubs.

I have retained all the players for the UK plus Ireland, but that's my choice, as I like to have an interactive experience when playing.

I'm guessing you meant 'immersive' there, lad.

But yes, retaining players is the only way to get those players in the game, currently.

Ah, but is it generally frowned upon?

retired_prusha

It may well be frowned upon, but I like to have as enjoyable experience as possible, which you can't have with most of the players in the non playable leagues missing. By the way, to counter this, I am also playing the top division of all the leagues in Europe. The game is slow, but that's no problem for me, as I am extremely slow player anyway.

Anyway, no one is more of a Lower League zealot than me. :p

well call me a numpty but could someone explain where the retain file is please

When you set up a game you have the option to retain players from any given nation, or number of nations.

retired_prusha

This is when you start a new game. You select the leagues you want in game, and below it gives you an option to retain players from individual countries.

Ian, you beat me to it. Typing not as quick as it once was.
