well for me i am enjoying it, it's as hard as a safebox but if you invest in a fair amount of time tweaking the tactics and buying/loaning the right kind of players, you'll definitely get a good run of decent results, the safebox will be opened eventually. and i do have to inject massive amount of positivities into my veins when things aren't going my way.
of course, there will be another set of safeboxes inside.
currently managing basingstoke town fc in 2017, 5 seasons mid table mediocrity in the enjoyably frustrating coca-cola championship.
something tells me i need to phone the chairman's daughter. he deserves it. enjoy, lads.
Whilst it's as addictive as it's always been it's not quite as much fun.
It's no longer possible to win as easily as it was before, which whilst is more realistic, makes it less fun and I don't have the time to go into the detail required to win.
Most annoyingly for me is the fact I've lost my last 3 saved games. I'm pretty sure this is due to my PC being the electric equivalent of the disease ridden rodent but I just can't be bothered to start again just yet.
I'm enjoying it immensely! Just started my fourth season with the mighty Weston-s-Mare. Got them into the blue square premier league in the second season and will keep on going like the duracell bunny!
Too many areas that have been poorly contrived and implemented having massive at times unpredictable effects on results means this is a game that is hard to enjoy.
Even when your doing well it doesnt feel as if its down to your management skills.
Add that imo the game has failed to evolve sufficiently in terms of not just adding new features, but also in fixing existing issues and you have something that is becoming very, very stale.
First of the grey bug.. it psses me off. losing to a grey turkey team in the CHL, even though i have won the PL 7 years in a row.
The same with my first international job.. its sick with the grey bug.
Second.
despite having the best team in the world i keep losing my games away.. no mather what tactic i use(which i use hours on making) i still cant win when we are supposed to.
Third.
If i find a good player i want i have to pay like 100mio euro to get him, even though he is worth 15mio.
I dont want to do that, so i have a lot of good youngster BUT when they get good (at about 23) ALL of them want a new challenge which ****s my team completely. what am i supposed to do ???
4th. the board confidence is just really no good.
Its ridicouless they get upset just because you lose a semi-final against a good team, and youre playing with youngsters.
NO board says: you have to win everything or we'll get upset.
Id doesnt take into account what kind of team youre meeting.
Ived been rather succesfull in my game, but im not enjoying this half as much as FM07 fully patched.
Its mostly because of what i have written but there are alot of other small things that makes me annoyed..
I've experienced some of the bugs in the game, most notably has been the much maligned match engine but i've found that all you have to do still is make a tactic that beats the AI, no different to if the match engine worked properly.
Therefore i am enjoying this version more than any previous version there has been.
