Football Manager 25: The International Management Conundrum
The wait for Football Manager 25 (FM25) has been extended, and fans are left with a bitter taste in their mouths. Not only will they have to wait longer for the game, but they’ll also be deprived of a major feature: international team management.
The game’s development team has confirmed that international management has been removed from FM25, citing quality concerns and the need to allocate resources to other areas of the game. This decision has been met with disappointment from the FM community, who had been eagerly anticipating the return of international management.
"We’ve looked really hard at international management in FM and determined that what we were planning to deliver wouldn’t reach our initial quality threshold," said Miles Jacobson, studio director at Sports Interactive. "So, rather than delay FM25 even further, we’ve paused work on that area of the game and allocated those resources to other key areas."
While this decision may have been necessary, it’s hard not to feel a sense of déjà vu. FM25 has already been delayed, and the removal of international management is a significant blow to fans. The game’s development team has, however, confirmed that international management will return in a "much more feature-rich way" in FM26.
But what does this mean for FM25? Without international management, the game will feel incomplete. Fans will be left wondering what could have been, and the lack of this feature will undoubtedly impact the game’s overall quality.
Additionally, the removal of international management is not the only change coming to FM25. Player weights have also been removed from the game, a decision that will likely be met with confusion and frustration from fans.
Despite these setbacks, the introduction of women’s football to the game is still on track. This is a significant step forward for FM, and fans will be excited to see this new addition.
In conclusion, the removal of international management from FM25 is a significant blow to fans. While the game’s development team has made some tough decisions, it’s hard not to feel disappointed by this news. However, fans can take solace in the fact that international management will return in the future, and the game will still offer a unique and immersive experience.
