Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 20 October 2008 Share Posted 20 October 2008 You sir need to sort it out.Get FM this year and you'll see what you have been missing out on all these years I've been on FM, borrowed from a mate, and thought it was quite good. It's just my brother buys FIFA MAnager and I can't see the point in having a tonne of manager games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asha Posted 20 October 2008 Share Posted 20 October 2008 To be fair, from the screen shots the match engine is wank compared to Fifas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 20 October 2008 Share Posted 20 October 2008 To be fair, from the screen shots the match engine is wank compared to Fifas. To be fair, FIFA Manager can rely on EA's 3D-Engine dating back to... 1996? And the 3D-mode has always been an integral part of that game, not so for FM. I once owned Anstoss! 2 Gold, one of the best German-based football simulation that ever existed (in my humble opinion). The in-game graphics were shite, but it didn't matter to me - how it felt like managing and playing, that's what it's all about. Btw, I've played the last FIFA Manager (08) myself and I wasn't overly impressed. In fact, I thought it was wank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricey Posted 20 October 2008 Share Posted 20 October 2008 To be fair, from the screen shots the match engine is wank compared to Fifas. FIFA Manager is great....if you think deciding on what your managers children will be called and building Girls Boarding schools in your grounds It's not a management game, it's a spin-off of FIFA that looks pretty but plays awfully and unrealistically. As for the match engine, yes FIFA looks better but it is bound to. SI, at the moment, are only concentrating on getting the match engine acting realistically not looking realistic. Don't worry though, when I start work there I've got loads of ideas to improve the way it looks, if I get any input in that side of things that is.

DB11 Posted 21 October 2008 Author Share Posted 21 October 2008 Their aint no demo for this is their <_<or not yet Well no because if you read the FM09 forums you will see it isn't due until about 2 weeks before release, meaning around the end of October.

shen Posted 21 October 2008 Share Posted 21 October 2008 But why did they have to team up with Steam?! <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted 22 October 2008 Author Share Posted 22 October 2008 But why did they have to team up with Steam?! <_< They aren't doing. They are allowing Steam to sell the game, and SI will get a cut of each game sold. That is just an extra option to be able to buy the game for people. It isn't the only option, and it doesn't take away any other options. And, as well as the normal ways, you are able to patch your FM with Steam regardless of if you bought the game with Steam. It'll be a lot faster than downloading from a torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
