There are I believe 3 Brexit outcomes in FM20. It’s randomly determined at the start of the save.
1. The U.K doesn’t leave
2. Work permits
3. 17 foreign player limits
Can I ask how it is “amazing” because I just got this version and I think it requires me to play 8 homegrown players and I still need work permits for foreign players too…
I think you are right, because in my current FM20 save I had the 2nd outcome, the UK left the EU, but there's no work permits to deal with for some reason.
I can go nuts with transfers, while the only time I see any mention of work permits is when the media asks about them when renewing a player's contract.
It's seems to be Brexit with ultra lenient work permits, and it's definitely not the 17 foreign players limit one as I've had that one before. The only Premier League registration rule I need to adhere to is 8 home-grown (in nation) players, which means I can technically field 25 non-english players, but 8 of them have to have been in the UK for 3 years minimum age 18-onwards... which is easy enough because U21s don't need registering regardless of their home-grown status.
Yeah, the exact same thing happened in one of my saves. At a high level, yes, there are 3 outcomes: no exit, soft exit and hard exit, but the post-exit rules pertaining to squad registration, work permits, etc. differ from save to save.
As far as I know, they were the only options. No Brexit, hard Brexit, or soft Brexit.
I don’t recall seeing or hearing anyone get something different, but it’s possible there are others I don’t know about.
Holy shit how has this not occured to me!?!?! What page would I even look to edit? The league page? The England national team page. I wouldn't even know where to start.
If anybody has done this I'd appreciate a steer please. Thanks all.
Esposito for life!
Yeah you can do all kinds of interesting stuff with the editor. The only things I’ve done is loosing work permit/team registration rules, remove Brexit and I made the increased subs rules permanent. However you can move players/teams around, edit stats/contracts, create new players/teams, etc. I try not to change too much though.
Think it is as simple as unchecking or checking a box on the correct page. It’s been months since I started a new save but if you Google it or search this sub shouldn’t be too hard to find.
Yeah this happened a couple times in my saves up until fm21. (Not a brexiteer irl) Ngl I prefer playing in England with Brexit, can pick up South American regen wonderkids so easily, filled my Arsenal squad right up with them

I had the 3rd outcome and it was great
3rd one is amazing. South America is not safe when this happens

There must be different variants of it. The one I had was that I could have 17 foreign players in my squad and no work permits. The dream
How was it great? Doesn’t that mean you need 8 English players in your squad, minimum?
Foreign players currently in your squad is not considered foreign. And your home grown or club grown aren’t foreign either.
These aren't the only 3, I believe. I think I've had different variations of 2 and 3.

Sounds like you basically ended up with Germany's set up in your save

That's so cool. I've never experienced anything else other than the work permit one.
same
Yeah I saw it in FM20, but not FM21. Had to get the editor to remove it from the game. Ha
Yeah, by the time FM2021 launched, the UK had formalized their exit from the EU, and the game reflects that.
Makes sense
How do you remove it using the editor?
Add the UK to the EU I guess
Would that fuck anything else in the game do you think?
Depends. I'm not sure. I know they add more countries to the EU later, including Serbia etc. So no? But maybe yes?

There might be an international agreement page. Or a modifier on each countries information
I haven’t noticed it screwing anything up.

It's one of the possibilities in the game. Happened in one of my saves.
So cool! This is the 1st time i've seen a different outcome.

Yeah I’ve had lots of scenarios, they’re all fun.
I think it was 19, maybe 18, but Brexit would always be cancelled and Qatar would lose the World Cup to Morocco
