Sancho Panza Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Is there going to be an 11.4 or hot fix as I hear that the latest patch stuffs up the players stats for goals etc (the whole point of the game if you ask me). I sold me copy of FM 2011 after the 2nd patch cos there were still so many absurd bugs (how these get past the 'testers' I have no idea) and want to buy the game again if it's is going to be fixed. Or are bugs just being fixed for FM 2012? Does anyone also know when Out of the Park Baseball 2012 is meant to be realeased? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny25 Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 with regards to the game being "broken", i think that's a matter of opinion!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon157uk Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Yea, I've got to agree with Dan really, it might have a few annoying things going on here and there but you can hardly say it's 'broken'. When you take all the good things that go on in FM 11 in to account I'd actually say overall it's a bloody fantastic game. I'll probably find something else to moan about again tomorrow but I'll still know it's a fantastic game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 My opinion is that is not perfect, and I think that FM desrves to be perfect. And when there are such glaring problems that stat lovers like me despise then the game can appear 'broken'. To not have a players stats actually reflecting their gameplay is a massive let down for me. It might seem a long time ago for most but how does a bug such as the French players ban affecting all friendlies get past the testers? We really have to question that. Did no testers play as a team with a frecnh international in it? I doubt it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 I didn't say it was broken. Broken to me means it won't load, or crashes al the time. FM2011 is not broken, it is just not as perfect as it could be and I am wondering if it will be patched again or left as it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 you said it needs to be "fixed", which implies that its "broken"!! Semantics. I think that what I mean is quite obvious from my original post. Are the errors that are still in the game after patch 11.3 to be (fixed, corrected, improved upon, answered, tweaked) before FM 2012.

MelbVictory Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 I think a hot fix woudl be good. I am finding I do not have the option to sign a player/coach. Cant even approach them as the option isn't there, small thing but annoying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant even approach them as the option isn't there, small thing but annoying. The player in question must be willing to become a member of coaching staff first. Tell him you believe he'd be a good coach under the Private Chat bit and there's a chance he'll say he can be available to coach straightaway. Then you can offer him a Player/Coach role. Otherwise he's happy just being a player as things stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBKalle Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Sure there will be a 11.4 patch... It'll be called FM2012, it will be out around Halloween but you'll have to pay for it. And it'll have plenty of "improved" features, as well as some new-old issues that were solved in 11.2 but resurfaced again due to some stuff being added/fixed/tweaked. It's been like that for years, it'll be like that for years... in sæcula sæculorum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swisso Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Aside from the 19th June crash (quite a big bug!) there doesn't seem to be much wrong specifically with 11.3, aside from the missing stats and odd transfer history viewing. I would have thought they'd have rolled out a fix for the 19th June crash, but if they're happy to fix peoples games when needed, then i guess it suits them.

ChrisLiebing Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 You still havent answered my question, why would there need to be another patch? Players staying withdrawn from International sqauds, Hall of Fame not displaying human managers, Manager Points resetting at end of season. There's 3 things. I'm sure many people could give you there own 3 things. You can say "oh its as good as it will get" But surely the whole point of these forums is for people to come on and point out problems and issues that are missed in testing so the SI guys can get something done? I reckon SI value some of the critical posts more than some of the fanboys actually realise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnakeXe Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I've had the game since release day and have been happy with it on patches 11.1 and 11.2. However, on my long-term save since patching to 11.3 I'm having issues with the home-grown classification of players for the Champions League squads. This is getting more and more irritating as the seasons go by, as I'm able to select fewer and fewer players for my Champions League squad - soon I'll be stuck with a squad of 17 first teamers plus any under 21 players I happen to have. IMHO this is enough of a problem to deserve a hotfix (if it's happening on a widespread basis). But still, I've reported it as a bug and SI have said they're looking into it, so thus far.

I looked quite well all over bugs forum and post there too and there are just common answers from SI about 11.3.0f178533 crashes. I found statement "Aside from the 19th June crash (quite a big bug!) there doesn't seem to be much wrong specifically with 11.3, aside from the missing stats and odd transfer history viewing." a little to much misleading because this 11.3.0f178533 crashes are quite big problem and there should be some hotfix to repair this issue and all other issues. As customer I'm entitled at least to get info about the product which is not as it should be as it is advertised. And I have state of the art brand new computer and game just doesn't work properly. I re-installed my Windows 7 two times and made all other reccomended arrangements with this 11.3.0f178533 crashes issue and I still can't watch game in 3D mode because of this 11.3.0f178533 crashes.

kudamon Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 ok....i notice your were asking about the player stats and it is not shown or something like that right? have your ever considered taking away the tick for masking player attributes whenever you start the game? major reason is i have not even seen this thing happen in my game yet......not even once and i do believe it is due to the ticking of the mask player attributes option. do this thing happen only when you are masking the players attributes or without it? if it happens when you tick the mask players attributes, then it is not considered a bug but a glitch in the game.
