it uses all the current players from the teams but changes the names of them so you wont automatically know who to play. its more of a challenge

well i think it works this way anyway

So the pics are probably gone with this option... It would be kind of funny to se an XY player have the pic of Robinho also in the real database, is EVERY new young player a regen? For what I understand a regen should have all the stats (nationality, hight, weight and most important PA).. So when I was playing with Red Star once I got a LWB from netherland that was very promising so for fun I checked out his PA and it was 191.. I don't recall any dutch WBL having such a high PA in recent years

Am it wasn't that far ahead yet it was about 2015 IIRC my thought was Gio, but I kind of doubt the man has a 191 PA

They aren't regens anymore, just newgens. So anyone could have retired and a random player is generated in his place.

So this "newgen" is just made up... He's not a regen from any other player that just retired? An 191 WBL retiring let's say from brazil or sth like that, or is his PA as well as all other stats just randomely created?

As far as I know, it could be in place a 17-year-old Chinese player who retired or it could be in place of Wayne Rooney. Completely random.

after playing a few games with actual players, i used this option in my current game and have enjoyed it quite a bit. it does take longer to get into though because everyone is unknown to you, so you have no clue what results to follow, etc.

here's a few observations:

the teams are relatively equal in strength to their actual player counterparts so at least for a while you won't see major surprises.

you can spot some players easily who are basically renamed actual players (i.e. young spanish/serbian forward playing for barca) but not all players are like this. some complete random stars are generated as well, so not all world beaters are players that you would guess.

this might be a bit off since i'm well into my game (2028 now :p ) but i've found that the issue with newgens being "bad" is really nonexistant in these type of games due to basically everyone being a newgen. i need to do some checking, but it feels like the "known players" are generated with specific nationalities rather than being direct copies of who they represent, so everyone is on equal footing if that makes sense.

i find that i prefer this type of game, it just takes considerably longer to get into.
