The original game code was hardcoded around the year 2020, which became increasingly problematic as time moved forward. This outdated system caused various bugs in Master League and Be a Legend, unfixable by changing the global career start year only, especially when editing transfers or creating players in edit mode.
In FL26, the key parts of the game’s contract system has been rewritten to use a custom built base year of 2025. This change resolves multiple critical issues and ensures long term stability and realism in career modes.
Master League problem:
- created players or transferred players in edit mode will result in an expired contract that cannot be negotiated, and will leave the club at the first transfer window deadline, having a huge amount of players transferred and released can easily confuse the contract management system and instantly crash the game.
This is now fully fixed in FL26, all players will have a valid negotiable contract including any created players or transfers made in edit mode.
Be a Legend problem:
- after the player joins his first team, his contract is already 4 years expired, and the team cannot negotiate contract extension, this will result in the player forced to leave and sign for another club in the first transfer window deadline.
in FL26 the player will have the ability to extend or accept any offer that comes his way in the transfer window.
