Chris 'Evo' Evans Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I've gone hands on with FM2011 and have done a little preview of the game here. A phone company once said that it is good to talk, Sports Interactive have heard this message and turned Football Manager 2011 into a game all about conversations. It is no longer about football; it is all about sitting down with your players, with their agents, with the board to talk about things. I never knew talking could be so fun. http://thereticule.com/2010/10/hands-on-preview-football-manager-2011/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayahr Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Cheers Quite short though with a focus on a very interesting part and also informative in that respect, but if I read that to make an informed decision on buying the game, it wouldn't help me.

reflection22 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Nice to see some new screenshots there. Gotta say the graphics on the 3D match engine appear to be looking a lot better this year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spankie Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I'm impressed that agents aren't just shadowy figures in the dark. If they have attributes and relationships then they'll have some semblance of personality and I wonder if its possible to "cultivate" agents so that they'll come to you with their clients first rather then your competitors and or go a little easier in negotiations. In the screenshot of the agent in that article I suspect that the agent would be a little more patient with Pulis then he would with other managers and wouldn't even talk to Big Eck. I also wonder if players can sign with different agents rather then being stuck with the same one all of the time. If so then perhaps that means that agents also have a CA/PA, or just a CA anyway.

Chris 'Evo' Evans Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 There is another page for the agents which lists all the players on their books, interesting to see what players go with different types of agents. In contract negotiations you can also change how much the agent gets for his role in the contract. It is quite a cool new aspect to the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
