I think we should all respect that these guys that spot bugs are invaluable and even very useful to the Developers. I might have only spotted a few bugs myself but I’m glad I’ve got a few thousand other pair of eye’s also interested in the game enough to point out ways to improve the game and enjoyment.
I actually hate people that come on here complaining about people complaining as there topics and people tend to be as useful as a chocolate fireguard, and that the polite way of saying it. Plus advertises they hay have nothing worth to say!
So I commend you with some Merit as being as useless as all the rest that have complained about complaining, hardly original ! :thdn:

May seem stupid but unplayable to me means that you can't play it, so for example if I tried to load the EPL when I start a new game, but the game didn't load any leagues at all and just left me with a save with no leagues at all (I know it's not possible, just hypothetical) or for example for some the spanish leagues are unplayable due to registration. Now as the game is for me I can load the EPL and play, but for me with the bugs it is unenjoyable, so not in a state that means I want to play it. Much like some of the previous Fifa's I could put them in my disk drive and play them but they weren't fun enough or realistic enough for me to want to play.

I have a cup of cold coffee on my desk, it's not undrinkable but I'm not in a mental state that means I want to drink it.
Make sense now?

The game isnt unplayable.
But the game was released too early, and many feel that waiting until 3 months after release for fixes to bugs that can at times ruin the game isnt very impressive.
It really doesnt take a genius to expect a backlash regeading this release of FM (particularly as new and exciting features are pretty thin on the ground)- it should be noted that a lot of moans I have seen are actually from people who have joined the forums because they are so displeased.
Their just venting their anger, its something that anybody who has worked in a customer facing environment has had to face and deal with- a shame SI have chosen to deal with this backlash by retreating into their shells, as this lack of visibility has just caused further frustration.

spagbol n aston martin - makes sense now  lol
sav112 - don't really care what you think of me. I didn't think this would get a good response but it needed to be said. I respect the guys who discover these bugs. I never said i didn't (you should pay more attention)
I said i don't like people constantly reminding everyone of these bugs in the game as the Spanish Registration Bug for example has been widely broadcast despite there being a simple way to get around it.
Many people do an invaluable job i agree. But many many more complain for complaining sake. They don't want to enjoy the game they want to criticise it.
So i commend you for not reading what I actually said and therefore getting the completely wrong message.

I found it unplayable out of the box, (for reasons that I will not go into here). Si have sorted those issues no though and while the game is far from perfect, it certainly isn't unplayable.

Nothing makes the game Unplayable, just like nothing made El Dorado Unwatchable, but it was just that no one decided to watch it!
I realy have my fingers and toes crossed that the February Patch fixes everything, but I fear it might not.
If I had to order my wishlist of bugs that I hoped got fixed, it would be;
1. The Closing down bug
2. Super keepers
3. The Spanish registration & Reserve/Youth fixtures bug
4. Quality of regens bug (I like to play long career games)
5. Shots on target/goals ratio Bug.
6. One-on-One's bug (probably related to superkeepers bug)
7. Natural Athletes ReGen Bug (probably related to quality of regens bug.
I expect that 1, 2 and 3 will be fixed, maybe 5 and 6, but I doubt 4 and 7 will be correctd.
