Will You Buy FM2011 ?

Sorry if this has been asked before....

I was wondering if anyone is like me and is still deciding whether to buy FM2011

i've never got into any the FM games since FM07 and never finished 2 seasons of FM10

so im wondering if i should give it 1 more try with FM11 or call time on management games now......

Depends... if enough of the game has changed to make it worth buying yeah. If it's just FM10 with a new patch and database, nope.

That's what I hate about sports games and being released like it's a new game every year. Little hint, it's called an expansion and should be priced as such. Otherwise don't release it every year and only when substantial changes have been made.

I will be buying it.

Depends on what type of games you prefer really.

FM is one of about only three or four games I get in a year. I think it offers good value for money, simply because of the re-playability (similar to Ron Atkinson's "Bouncebackability )

I like strategy games in general though, more so than action or shooters, because I usually complete those quickly and have little desire to do the "same" again once I've done it a couple of times. Good strategy games offer something different every time you play them.

I will buy it.

I'm going to have 2. It's the only way I'll know if I like it or not. This kind of game it's absolutely impossible to go off peoples opinions or reviews for me. Infact I usually have to play about 5 or 6 seasons before I know for sure if I like it or not.

I'm hoping for better than the last 2 years. Hopefully teamtalks and media crap is gone 2.

I will be buying it no matter what. I like the new features that will be in it and I have seen that there could be more.

Already paid off.

If the demo is even tolerable, then yes.

With bells on yes.

Same here. For 30-ish quid it is one of the best value purchases I'll ever make consdiering the amount of time I'll spend playing it.

I've spent more than that on DVD boxsets I've still not watched :o

In theory: only if the new features are genuinely new and not just cosmetic.

in reality: Yes.

It's the only game I buy for PC. And the main reason I own one. That makes it a very expensive game.

Well unlike games like FIFA FM is an annual game which does bring out genuinely new and usually interesting games every year. FM09 had 3D graphics, press conferences, and a useful ass man feedback thingy. FM10 has the tactics creator, touchline shouts and a good regen system. FM11 will have dynamixc league reputations, overhauled training and the whole agents thing.

While not all these things have worked, and they probably won't all work come October, each one of those things is a substantial change of itself.

As regards buying, finances will probably compel me not to buy straight away, and as I have a massive save going in FM10 I will probably dual play for a while.

So what in your opinion need to change before you think it'll be worth buying? Considering what's been announced so far I think it's pretty safe to say that FM 11 will be much more than just a patch and data update.

I only use my lap top for i tunes and footie manager. Its essential

Depends on two things for me:

1. Whether it offers enough over 2010.

and

2. Whether it works on Linux. This, of course, being the most important.

I will buy FM11 no matter what !

It's basically the only game i play throughout the year

I will be buying FM 2011 its just the waiting now

I have stuck with FM2008 because I could not get into FM2009 or FM2010, however I will give FM2011 a chance because I have to at some point move on from FM2008. The features anounced so far look interesting, but until the demo comes out I will reserve judgement and then make my decision, there really is no reason to question until that point.

depends on the release date

I will be buying it. Bought every CM/FM game that SI have made so its kind of like traddition, besides it beats the hell out of watching x factor or whatever "reality" TV show the wife is poluting my television with.

I'll more than likely end up buying it, although i'm still enjoying FM10.

Of course I'll buy it, really looking forward to it!

Yes, I will be

I have already pre-ordered it..so yes I will

does the pope ***** in the woods?

does the pope ***** in the woods?

Well I'd be surprised if he does considering he's probably got the worlds best bog at home lol.

yes after third update as usual!

Of course...

Pfffft...

Will I buy it? Check the secret code...

yes of course cant wait

this is a sick in the head thread:mad: the only way i wont be buying it is if i happen to die between now and the release:confused:

Yes i will be buying it. It's the only game I buy for PC. Just looking around for the best deal now?

can't wait for the demo!

I have already pre-ordered it.

iv'e bought it on release day every year since fm05 but not this time. im going to wait until 11.3 patch comes out and the games a bit cheaper as every year ive bought the game it's been unplayable until january/february. i also have 4 good save games going with wigan/palace/crewe and notts county. the first two iv'e won the league with and have just finished 5th with crewe in the prem in 2016 so im going to keep this on the go for the next 5 months!!!

I will be buying it.

me too.. (10)

Yep.

(random 10 character rule).

I probably wont at first, still enjoying fm2010, dont see the point to upgrade right away.

does the pope ***** in the woods?

No.

I, like you won't be buying it. At least not straight away. I have only just started a proper save on FM10 on my new PC. I could no longer tollerate the jittery graphics and long prcessing times on my old laptop.

Anyway I think it's best to wait for a finished, patched game before spending my money as I always start my main save after the patches have been released. I am sure I will get it eventually if I feel it's worth the money.

Well, following your game updates, if there's anyone that gets value for money out of FM, then it has to be you.

I'll be buying it, money permitting.

damn f*****g right i am!!!!!

All Ready ordered mine would never miss a fm :-)

too many good memory's playing this game,

and for the price well what can u say great value

If the match engine will be fixed I'll think about it. If no major changes; FM10 was my last FM ever.

Have you not seen the changes on the official announcement thread at the top of the page.

lol same here does not matter what i buy for the playstation or the pc i still keep coming back to football manager 10 and battlefield 2

When the price is right (euro steam) or Civ5 get boring, whatever comes first.

Definatly. I have brought it on release day every year and if i dont give them my few pennies every year they one day might stop making it and then where would we all be???????
