Download Latest Live Data:
Can anyone explain how exactly the Live Update function will work?
When will we see the first updated data release?
How often will it be updated and for how long will it be supported?
Will it wipe any prior customisation that has been made?
Editing the Database
Every time that you edit a pre-exisiting player it creates a player link. It seems as though the more I edit the core database, loading times increase exponentially
Is there a limit to the number of changes/creations/links one can make?
Even after release, is it possible to rework this situation so that no link is created?
I have mentioned in another post that Created Players and Teams (as well as Edited Teams) automatically update text to capital letters incorrectly.
FanHub Accessibility
Is it possible to add search filters to the FanHub and any time a player list appears? The name search is fine, but filtering or being able to sort by position, nationality, player rating etc would be helpful. (Sort/filter by user rating would also be useful!)
Player Creator
Ratings
I would love to see an expansion to the current ratings system with a differentiation between technical and physical skills (I have mentioned this in another post)
A rethink to how the rating database is spread out would be good as well, to make great players stand out on the pitch.
I have encountered very slow load times on certain areas of the player creator (brow styles etc)
Haircuts
Generally the addition of so many haircuts has been fantastic. I would really like to see the inclusion of a similar system as the Stubble/Beard function.
The natural/black fade (stubble) with peroxide blonde hair (beard) combination is so popular these days that the ability to create this would allow us to create much more realistic players.
Equipment
Happy to see head tape added to the accessory options
Please update arm sleeves for Club & International Colours (same as Boots etc)
Allowing Arm Sleeves to be set to use in different weather conditions would be a nice addition
Single Arm Sleeves (Jordan Taufua) I think will become more popular over time, may be a good option
Lots of players have taken to wearing small white ankle socks just above their boot line. Again, would be a nice addition.
All of these suggestions are very small changes, but they allow for greater customisation and differentiation/personality between players.
Kit Creator
I assume that once the PC community get their hands on the game, despite the cross platform FanHub, console players will still not be able to import custom kits? (If this is possible, the rest of the post isn't really relevant!)
Please include the ability to add images to created kits. Even if they must remain generic, the current options leave quite bland results.
Split templates up into Shirt, Shorts & Socks - Allowing users to mix and match styles whilst also having individual options over colour schemes for each would be a great update.
Logo/Image Customisation
Some form of ability to either create or import/share images would have a huge impact on allowing us to make the game more realistic - if you give the community the tools, I'm sure it will thrive!
Allowing us to add images to everything from Uniforms to Scrum Caps & Boots would be a great step forward
A real long shot, but in future I would love to see a system similar to PES that allows the import of Full Kit Templates
I also have concerns regarding editing the database. This was a a major problem with RC3 on ps4. Once you got to a certain stage of editing in the game it pretty much stopped working, multiple crashes, tournaments wouldn't work, etc. Hopefully they've worked on the stability of the database, as with the lack of licences there's going to be a lot of players/teams getting downloaded and linked!
Thanks for the suggestions here guys!
Good question we probably need some clarification on in the future - “Download Latest Live Data: “Will it wipe any prior customisation that has been made??
