★ Ʊ Ƒ ' Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I used to play it all the time but the last to football managers have not got me hooked is it just me? Sooo true, can't get into this one. Plus taking out the old squad selection where you could view it as a split view was one on the most unnessecary and stupid things i've seen.

Guest Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Same here. I don't know what it is about 09 and 10 but since then it has started to lose me addiction-wise. Since 09 I have started to feel it doesnt matter about tactics and players so much, its all just moral and team talks and stuff. Maybe thats what it is. Or maybe its since the 2d ME game about, not sure. Theres something that stops me enjoying it so much. Maybe I'm just growinhg up and getting to old now, but I doubt it.

Ryan Morrison Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 I think you are right it is all about team talks and moral i think they have tried to hard on this game. you can never be to old for fm:) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednwhites Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I haven't been able to get into them properly for a while for some reason. Still buy them though but I doubt I'll buy FM12. I'm 21 in a couple of months and perhaps I've just grown up a bit? My priorities have certainly changed. The match engine is the thing that annoys me the most. Watching the players on there is so infuriating. They do some of the most stupid things that a player would never do. My main gripe is when a defender is chasing a ball over the top, a striker is bearing down on him at pace...all it needs is heading back to the keeper but for some reason it appears the defender just jumps in the air and then stops as he returns to the ground leaving the striker to have a one on one. Very bizarre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes_83 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I still play this version just as much, but I don't feel as connected to it. I feel as though I am watching a simulated soccer world happen around me rather than the personal connection I used to have to my club and my players. I think there are many reaosns for this, the biggest are the backroom advice features where the game will basically present you with players you should be signing now. (I don't need to go find them) Also the overly complex nature of the game now makes it less user friendly. It has evolved and added good features but I think they traded the fun factor for the added depth and realism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magicz Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I'm exactly the opposite. I've got into this more than any others- with the exception of 08 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preveza Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Me too. Si better pull their finger out! It's a game ffs!! A good tactic should last years with the right tactic, not 2 games!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They prefer the term simluation these days, and it should be treated as such. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has evolved and added good features but I think they traded the fun factor for the added depth and realism. I feel exactly the same as you. I've actually played FM11 more than any other FM, but I don't really feel as immersed as I did with say, FM09. There's more of a sense I'm playing a simulation, rather than me being a football manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krald Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 hated 09. Loved 10, 11 I want to love but I just cant get the tactics working properly, and I find it insanely frustrating, the game jus doesn't play how I want it to, and I preferred 10 where I could tweak tactics with no penalty.
