FootBall Manager 2008!

[bugssy]

yer i enjoyed it. good interface

 

[Goughy]

Didnt download th demo as the only computer I have at the moment is pretty slow.

Got bored and downloaded on a whim. Lo and behold, it runs and runs faster than previous versions of the game.

So far Im loving it. They could have done a bit more to add to the game but it is fine.

Currently trying to get Leeds out of the ****. Not sure how giving Hartson 10k a week will help but we will see

 

[sledger]

what are any of the new features like?

 

[roseboy64]

Pretty good.

 

[Goughy]

Anyone else finding this tough? Cant just blitz teams like previous versions and Im finding Im having to tweak and concentrate tactically far more at the defensive end than before

 

[roseboy64]

They are trying to make it more realistic.

 

[bugssy]

which is a good thing!

 

[Agent TBY]

Pretty good.

Lol, worst answer.

 

[sledger]

which is a good thing!

too right it is, i got fed up with the last one, mainly because i won every competition i entered with arsenal in my second season, the only signings of any note being micah richards and igor akinfeev...

 

[roseboy64]

Lol, worst answer.

Couldn't bother to go into details.

Always find the demo's harder than the actual game tbh. Suppose not enough time to get a settled formation and the like. Enjoying it tbh, but then thats not hard, always was gonna be a good game. The skins a shocker, cant wait to ditch that, liking the extra feedback on your own team, will comment on more when i remember them

yer its pretty coiol. i agree!

one thing thats annoyed me about the demo is players fitness seems to be really erratic, can have two games in 4 days and come out smelling of roses, then can have one a week and be down at 85% for the next saturday.

 

[Johnners]

could be to do with the playing conditions? (i.e soggy pitch, humid etc.)

 

[cpr]

nah, if it was that it'd affect each player in a similar style, far too erratic

 

[Agent TBY]

Training, tbh.

 

[cpr]

Was using the same schedules as from 07, never had these issues there. Generally, on 07, wingers suffered the worst, then strikers, on 08 is seems to be far more random.

Might just be certain players keep on picking up knocks, who knows

 

[bugssy]

can any one confirm that it is out in shops over in the uk and europe.

 

[roseboy64]

October 19 AFAIK.

 

[Agent TBY]

It's out.
