Joseph Davis Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 This may sound extremely sad but the thought of uninstalling fm10 has got me feeling it's a little like breaking up with a girlfriend/boyfriend. Although I've played many versions of the game, I used to only play for a couple of seasons (5 max) and then just quit and start again. This has been the first version of the game I've really got into, not sure whether this is down to my age (19) or not but none of the less I've enjoyed FM10. I'm currently Chelsea and in the year 2030 and my team is full of great regens, who I've brought up or worked my backside off 'tapping' up by releasing comments praising them to unsettle them in to a move . I find selling a regen hard enough but having to say goodbye to them forever is something that I've compared to with breaking up with a partner. My first girlfriend and I were together for 18 months before she dumped me on a cold autumn evening (no doubt I'll be uninstalling FM10 on a cold autumn evening) and it hit me hard. It took me a while to realise that we wouldn't be doing the things (not those things) that made one another smile, the little jokes that only the two of us understood etc. Just like the connection you have with FM and your regens, no longer will I be able to see one of my star striker regens bang in a hat-trick or cheer out loud when another bags in a last-minute winner to take three vital points. Obviously I know eventually I'll get this satisfaction on FM11 but uninstalling FM10 and losing all the regens and the hard work I've put in for the first time and knowing that I won't get these lads back and won't be able to play with the same bunch of guys again is a little bit like that first 'heart-break'. Tell me experienced gamers does the uninstalling process get easier? Anyone else think the same? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GioGio85 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I just uninstalled FM10 as I have just sold it online so I can put the dosh towards FM11. If I was into a massive save it would be gut wrenching, but fortunatly (depending on how you look at it) I finished my career save a few weeks back and have been soley living on the anticipation of FM11:) Not long now!

Ishu Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Will only be uninstalling it when I get my hands on FM11 disc. Wish I could do that with girls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 There is a simple solution - don't uninstall. Just keep playing it, or even if you move onto FM11 you can keep it on your PC. I've got FM08, FM09 and FM10 on this PC and have no intention of removing any of them. Oh, and you also need to grow a pair! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgar555 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Just don't uninstall!!! Leave it on your computer, that way if things go bad between you and FM11 then you can always sneak back to your FM10 regens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalky1989 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I'm gonna keep it installed myself. I've got the longest term save I've ever had (2036) going, so will always come back to this. Might not even buy FM2011, at least till 11.3 comes out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
