oTRUTHo Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i guess theres ppl who fly thru a season in a day. but one of the best things you can do is spend some time with the game & use all the features & enjoy the matches ect ect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiitastic Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'd done 24 seasons in 27 days game time. Half of this was as International manager though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenRyan Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 That was a question that came in my head actually, how long does it take most people to finish a season (game time)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manager Milney Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i do a season in about a day maybe a bit longer, but my game time is almost 2 months because i just hibernate my laptop and it keeps counting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFish Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Congratulations! Do you set everything up meticulously, with your spreadsheet and mathematical package calculating the optimal strategy to use? Cant say I do anything like that no, lol. Think most of my time is taken up trying to find players. especially in my first season. I look absolutely everywhere, under 19s, 21s. ill probably be doing the same again in pre-season just not as much this time. Need to replace the old outdated Steve Harper, made loads of mistakes for me this season, and I can rely on the backup. Need a quality keeper so will be on hours looking for him!

ozzij Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I usually do a season in 2weeks. I play on average 3-4 evenings doing 3-5hrs of FM!Usually Log on at 8-9ish then stop at 11:00! well i say stop. Thats when I say to myself to go to bed. takes about 20mins to log off as I have that disease called 1more game syndrome! Quite good as about 4 of my mates do the same. Chat away on Steam.

Rushers82 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 "i simply sit next to her on the sofa whilst she watches the TV" - Brilliant (makes a note) Have completed 5 seasons in just over 9 days of game time (it has taken me about 6 months though as I didnt play much in spring time as I was trying to save a relationship - see above).

swirlypop69 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 3 days and I am coming up to the end of 2nd season.. Same speed as me All these people who speed through a season a day...I just couldn't hack it. But I do get distracted by Steam buddies and other games on it that I play, like dods! I reckon I'd be much quicker getting through a season if I'd have bought the CD version! lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jops14 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 If i go on FM generally i try and switch most other things off so im not distracted, i play full screen and it takes forever those first few times to switch in and out (although after a while its fine). Generally it takes me around a day-day and a half of game time to get through a season, which can often actually be between 1-2 weeks... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balthazars Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's usually somewhere between 48 and 72 hours of game-time to complete a season, but that's because I have to spend a lot of time alt-tabbing out in order to write sections for my story. For games where I'm not writing, somewhere between 32 and 48 hours of game-time for a season. I like to look around and 'smell the roses'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
