This file introduces Current Ability (CA) and Potential Ability (PA) adjustments in Football Manager 2023, created primarily for testing and evaluation purposes.
The changes are loosely based on Transfermarkt market value trends, using real-world valuation shifts as a reference point to reassess player progression and potential. The goal is to explore how market perception can translate into in-game ability balance, rather than to present a final or definitive database overhaul.
This is an experimental file, open to iteration. Feedback and discussion are part of the process and will directly influence whether the project is refined, expanded, or left as a standalone test.
What’s Included:
📊 CA and PA adjustments for selected players;
🧪 File released for testing and balance evaluation;
🔁 Future updates dependent on community feedback;
A sandbox-style database tweak aimed at sparking discussion about player valuation, development, and how closely Football Manager should mirror the real-world market.
