SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted June 12, 2010 SI Staff Share Posted June 12, 2010 At the moment there isn't a network game in FMH iPhone, tbh the reason it hasn't been implemented is simply that very few people appeared to ever use the networking features on the PSP game.

n33712 Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 Okay. Thanks for answering the question. I reckon more people will own an iPhone with FM on it than there was ever PSP owners. Also being touchscreen the iPhone i would think is alot easier to use. I owned the PSP version and never really played it as i did not like how the controls work. Perhaps a network option on the iPHone is something SI will look into again in the future. Do a poll on it and see what iPhone users think!

Do a poll on it and see what iPhone users think! We'll definitely consider it if enough people request it - however do bear in mind that the iPhone team is rather compact and implementing a network game would be a rather time intensive task (ie. it'd take up most of the development resources for a version, so don't expect it instantly).

n33712 Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 Yeah fair enough. I have no idea how long it takes to implement things like this so i wont expect it.....can be a nice surprise should it ever happen!!! Cheers Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1234566778 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I would love to see a network game option available. Imagine having a premier league with all of 'us' as the managers playing against ech other. Would be a great addition if possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartansteen Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 It would be great to play other managers over the iphone's WiFi :thup: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich2086 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Wouldnt have thought there was really the demand for it to be honest. Would be a nice addition but id rather see the game grow and improve before seeing "network game" capabilities. I only ever play the game in short bursts 10 mins here 20 mins there so id never be able to get a game going with anyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1234566778 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 If the network 'games' could be played over a 3G connection, that would be amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjsreading1 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 i think this is rarely used on psp because not many people use the internet available on the psp (myself included) whereas on the ipod/iphone it is much simpler and easier to play against friends on other games via bluetooth or wifi. another discussion point could be whether to make the network 'game' the same as it is on psp (just a friendly match) or to make it an actual multiplayer career (this would obviously be a reduced amount of seasons possibly even 1, and should have a separate save folder which is only available in multiplayer mode and when you connect to the same person) i never played online on psp so im unsure but if it is just a network match then i think you should be able to load your team from your career so you can at least resolve the argument of 'my team is better than yours' just my thoughts anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
