Is it time to switch to 3D?

I've been using 2D since CM4 when it was released, and have tried 3D but it didn't feel the same.

Is it being improved much or enough so that I should change?

change, you will notice a difference.

change, enjoy it for a month or 2 till u wanna go back to good old 2d, thats what i plan on doing

2d for the win

Massive difference in 3D now

Download the demo and see for yourself.

Use both, just switch and swap between them when you get bored.

Keep the faith with 2D

I purchased FM09 but couldnt get into the 3D and as far as I was concerned, it killed the 2D too because the movement of the players was slower. They'd get the ball and because they were actually moving, the round dot would be still for about a second or so. But having upgraded recently Im going to watch games in 3D from now on. The level of immersion you'l get with the additional stadiums will just be too good to be true.

It was time in 2009.

You can't beat 3D for excitement, especially when its an important match; like in the last minute of the last game of the season and there's an almighty goalmouth scramble - if they score you're doomed to relegation, if your defender hacks it clear - its premiership survival right at the death baby! Only 3D can give you those memorable moments

move on with technology

unless you still use black and white tv's?

Always 2D.

CAMRAD!

I liked the 3D zoomed out view from above in FM2010. Best of both worlds.

Stick with the dots

Stick with the dots man! I won't use 3D until it looks half as fun as the 2D. With the dots you can always imagine your players doing magic with the ball

It depends. It's easier to get a tactical overview with 2D, and it's easier to see where you're going wrong, or how play is going to develop. Also, your imagination fills in the blanks, and the football you observe will seem better because of it- there's less chance of the realism being destroyed, because your mind comes up with realistic things to fill the unrealistic gap.

However, the 3D does look better at times.

I seem to recall someone saying that FM11 lets you change the angle that you watch replays at, so you could watch in 2D most of the time, but see the smashing great goals in 3D- best of both worlds, really.

Amen SCIAG. Amen.

*Conveniently ignores the rest of your post*

I've tried it but it just isn't as smooth as 2D. 2D the game runs perfectly, whilst on 3D my game crashes when I minimize and just isn't worth the hassle.

Probably going to stick to 2D.

Imho it was time to switch already 2 years ago, but if you haven't yet, just take a look and decide for yourself

You be suprised with the little things you see in 3D if you give it a chance
