To be honest I'm playing the demo and I'm not enjoying it. ?I want a game to at least be enjoyable, I'm fed up with all this player happiness, media talk and comments. ?The community is quite big and move fast, but I'm not so sure it's that nice. ?I want a nice light easy game to hop in and out of, just like CM. ?Sadly the depth of FM is putting me off.

I love FM11 so far been playing quite alot and I have got my West Ham team to 3rd in first season with some good freebies like Vassell and Kapo and selling ?9m of players. I did pay some big money for Paulo Henrique and its paid off so far!

... I just cant play this manager anymore :/ every year the same same things to do.. its so boring!!!!

I mean what could you ever change to make it better??? the answer is nothing!!! The graphics are good as they are and the gameplay is / was too...

There is simply nothing they could do so much better to make me buy this game again :/ its sad but its exactly like that...

Maybe next the should bring it on WII with whole new controls.. maybe i give it a shot then...

That is true, feature wise you struggle to see what else that can currently add. ?The only area I think that would be an improvement is the match engine, that is something that can be refined and tweaked and also graphics wise look can be improved, but that would only be possible with efficiencies and technological advances (ie new system specs)

They can still branch out to consoles, where the main problem is usability but to be honest I can't see why they force users to use a wireless mouse or pointing device and just re do the interface to make it easier to use, even the PC one makes me click too many times.

Also they should be looking to expand in current or new markets, as there is only so much you can do for one market.

I am dropping points now like a bitch :( lost a stupid game to Spurs and drew 1-1 with Liverpool but we were losing for majority of the game.

My defence is pretty bad and making stupid mistakes. You know you've got a bad defence when Jonathan Spector is your best defender :laugh:

haha I loaned Rafael from Man Utd and he's rating at 7.7 after 20 odd games this season :D he's a star!

I am slightly keeping 3rd in EPL, 5 points clear of Arsenal in 4th!

Perhaps he was talking about the notoriously ****ty FIFA Manager, I think I just answered his question by the way..

FM is the only real choice if you want to play a football sim game, the FIFA and CM games suck so bad that you'd want to put a bullet between your legs just to feel something other than disgust and "WTF".

I haven't seen daylight in weeks thanks to this game.

Managed to get celtic to the semi final of the champs league, found some excellent young prospects. John spence in my game is a rock in defense, cisse is banging them in up front, found a couple decent midfielders too. I've invested so much time in scouting so far.

Easily the best FM yet

Haha. Yep he's been pretty bad for me too. Unfortunately the reserves aren't much better so i had to buy another keeper.

I also had a crazy experience with a player who i bought and seeing as he wasn't match fit i put him in the reserve team. Well he didn't like that and handed in a transfer request and wouldn't budge on his position. So i sold him in the same transfer window :laugh:

Between this and Civ V it's any wonder i get sleep at all.

I had to speak to Carlton Cole and terminated his contract for ?1.9m :pinch:

Are you finding his finishing to be absolutely shocking as well?

oh god yeah, he got injured after 3 weeks and was out for 2 months and never got fit enough...he couldn't score at all! which is why I brought in Vassell in on a free and he's been firing them in

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By sagum · Posted

      Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
