Default Should SI now be working on FM09 or fixing FM08

With all the problems people complain about these days should SI be concentrating on making FM08 better or should they be preparing a FM09 so when the time come for its release its perfect????

Personally apart from a few minor niggles im still 90% happy with FM08 and i still cant turn it off.

FM 09. I don't get bothered by the bugs too much, maybe because a lot of them seem to be about the match engine, and to make already long seasons run quicker, I have my matches set to commentary only and no replays so I never see the player movements on pitch, they're only slightly irritating if that, I mean the game still works, seasons progress how they should (what I mean by that is the AI teams performances aren't totally messed up, yes the balance of power changes over time, and you do get inevitable surprise results, but i mean you don't get the big 4 struggling for survival while derby and teams like that fight for the title in the early seasons before such long term changes of fortune should be occuring), the code for games like this much be very complex so it's hardly going to be perfect. If SI had to work at making everything perfect we'd only have FM's every few years, which is a very long wait for something that needs to be annual in order to be realistic and up too date.

To cut a long post short, the bugs aren't that bad when put into perspective, my players could be line-dancing on the pitch for all I care as long as matches and seasons progress normally, I still love 08, the game is too complex to get perfect so I don't thing SI should be too concerned with getting everything perfect (although if they can fix a few things.. great) because we'd never have 09 or any other games otherwise.

I would imagine both.

It's not like SI start thinking bout '09 after '08, there'll be features left out of this one that needed more work I'm sure.

I would imagine they're focusing on both.

Focus on FM08 offcours. There are thousands of people who are not happy with the game as it is now. Maybe you all have plenty of money, but i don't want 50€ to be thrown away

Both.

They'll have most of the coders working and testing for a new patch and then some of the coders and creative guy working out what to put into FM09

Well since fm09 will be based on fm08 they should first fix their crap instead of going building and expanding something that simply is far from ready.

Well FM09 will most likely end up being 8.0.2 with a couple of new features which don't work.
