Should SI be paying us for been the REAL game testers
If your the first person to spot a specific bug, you get a voucher for next years FM, redeemable at all good retailers.
I personally dont mind paying £25 for FM, considering the enjoyment I get out of it, but I do feel that SI are taking advantage of this symbiotic relationship we have. They know we are unable to live without another installment of FM and they dont really have any good competition in the market place, yet without us and this forum FM would be a much much poorer product. SI charge us £25 for the privilege of playing FM, yet when we inform them of the NUMEROUS Bugs the game has we get jack in return, except a pat on the back and a month long wait until the patch is released. (at this point spare a thought for the people without the internet)
All I'm saying is that it's about time that SI recognise that this game needs an ARMY ot testers i.e. US, and we should be rewarded for our fine (and continued) good work

I don't think we should get paid! i think Si should produce a game which is actually ready! Are the games testers prior to release FM fans because the guys on this forum would notice the huge amount of clear bugs straight away! Seems like SI hasn't cared and thrown it onto our shelves!

Players are always testers for a new FM game, as seen from the end users perspective.
The game is always shifted with grevious bugs that get adressed 6 months later or are passed down to the next database update & name change.
If we, the players, come here and shout be get banned by the fan boys that also moderate these forums for being aliases.
Don't expect compensation, just keep a low profile and buy when the general consensus is that the end product is finished. I.E once every 3 years or so :-/

Christ are you on troll duty tonight?
Every post is a sweeping statement to the effect that the game is not ready, and frankly it wearing thin now 'cos quite a lot of us are both playing and enjoying.

McDoul you really need to take your pathetic comments elsewhere! what do you want me to say! this game is perfect and nothing needs to be fixed! If this was the case i wouldn't be on the forum! I would be playing! If you think nothing is wrong with the game, run along and play!
