Declan Barry Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 For PSP it is confirmed by FootballManager.com which is the official FMH site. However, I will get confirmation of this during my trip to Sports Interactive HQ tomorrow . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted October 8, 2011 SI Staff Share Posted October 8, 2011 No dates for FMH games have been formally announced yet - they should be available shortly; at which point they'll be posted here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel MUFC Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Is Football Manager usually out by now ?. I dont remember it being this late. I like the information on the FM.com especially the stadium expansion part. If this information is not correct and its posted on the official site then somebody has boo booed big time. It better not be fcuking £36 on the PSN again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It better not be fcuking £36 on the PSN again. I can't comment on the information posted on FM.com apart from to say that its not wholly accurate for the handheld games; at this time no official announcement regarding the games feature lists has been made; I expect that unfortunately what was posted initially on the site was intended as 'place holder' text which somehow went live. Finally - no the game isn't normally out by now, last year I think the PSP was released on November 26th (if I remember right) for instance ... with regards to pricing that isn't anything to do with me personally and I have no idea what the PSN price-point will be at present, when I hear I'll obviously let you know.

Declan Barry Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 It was due to be the 5th but was delayed to the 26th. I have seen FMH releasing all this period before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardMagpies Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I'm convinced the game's going to be put on the app store without notice. As a surprise. It's just a feeling I have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry01234 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hopefully before the 25th October!! Could do with playing FM on the plane to New York Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your_Nightmare Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 ...Could do with playing FM on the plane to New York Do commercial airlines even allow passengers to have their phone on during the flight? I've seen news articles were a passenger got into an argument with the airline crew when they asked him to turned his phone device. The passenger refused to stating that he had his phone on "airplane status", and it should not interfere with traffic signals. Nonetheless, the flight attended insisted to have it turned off. Thus, I'm skeptical as to whether we'll be able to play FM on flights. If this has changed as of late, I'll be interested if reading an official statement from the FAA confirming this, as I'll be traveling myself too in the upcoming few months.

CWind Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I flew from Charlotte, NC to Rome on U.S. Airways and played quite a bit of FMH on the way there. Did the same on the flights back. No problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that nonsense happened in US, right? In Europe they're only picky during take-off and landing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trundley Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 All that nonsense happened in US, right?In Europe they're only picky during take-off and landing. +1 Flew from england (newcastle airport) to Tenerife and they only wanted my iPod touch and mobile in Airplane mode. You cant get a signal up there anyway so >.> People tend to be picky when you win the FA cup over Man U with Hartlepool United and almost scream like you're actually there and the full time whistle comes in.

SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted October 11, 2011 SI Staff Share Posted October 11, 2011 Most airlines are 'picky' about things being fully powered down during take-off and landing - but once you're fully 'in-flight' I've never had any of them have a problem with using electronic devices in AirPlane mode. (this includes US internal flights) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza1969 Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 If i remember Marc wasn't it released last year on the 26th November because of a fault issue,it normally comes out at the end of October Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza1969 Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 i do find this site quite incredible that nobody seems to know when a game is being made,surely an update could be made to let people know if a game is somewhere near being released or not.

We're quite aware of 'when a game is being made' - however at present I'm not at liberty to update anyone regarding the planned schedules for the handheld products. Some of this is down to uncertain timescales involved with aspects of development (most usually reproduction timescales for disks, submission acceptance timeframes for digitally distributed products where a non-SEGA corporation has to approve something for sale etc.). Once I'm given the go-ahead to discuss things by the people involved in PR then I'll happily natter away about them, until that time I'm afraid my hands are tied ...

SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted October 16, 2011 SI Staff Share Posted October 16, 2011 Waste of time totally pointless. I'm sorry I can't give out a release date - but beyond indicating that I'm listening and that I'll update you as and when I'm able to there isn't much more I can do unfortunately. I was just trying to (1) show we do listen/read peoples posts, (2) indicate that the company is well organised and are presently on schedule with our products - however when things aren't entirely under our control it is impossible to post a 100% reliable release date for a product (you might notice that very few iOS games indicate their release dates in advance of them coming out for just this reason). I apologise if this annoys you - but there is unfortunately little I can do about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillywhite Dean Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I don't know, you can please some of the people all of the time.. I'm looking forward to the new release but am content with FMH11 until then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewDriverNo1 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Fair enough, not giving an exact release date after last years problem but the least SI could have done was confirm that it was coming out on PSP. The PSP version has taken a total backseat since the iPhone version was released and this is just another example of it I think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Barry Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Miles did announce it was coming out several weeks ago in an interview, way before iOS actually. Just think, has it taken a back seat as the main coder is working on the iOS game or is it because there is nothing to do with the PSP game in regards to the software?

gazza1969 Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 ok if as you say that your company is well organised and on schedule then surely you can say within what timescale the game is being released,and who has given nearly every shop in the uk a 28th october release date.

CWind Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Gazza, as someone who has helped beta test and develop software in the past, I can tell you that it rarely does a developer any good to pin themselves down to a release date unless they've got massive resources and staff to back them up. Remember what he said: when things aren't entirely under his control, it's not possible to post a 100%, concrete release date. The implication here is that things aren't entirely under his control, therefore, no release date as yet. Not sure what's so difficult about that to understand.

gazza1969 Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Mr wind be quiet and mind your own business,what Si games need to do is take a leaf out of ea sports who are a top quality company who know what they are doing,they always keep to a release date because they know what they are doing,maybe as you put it if things are not actually under his control maybe someone who is in the know should comment on what Si games are doing,i find it quite remarkable that a company doesn't know what stage there games are at.

Declan Barry Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Gazza, shut up all you have come on here to do is bitch and that is obvious. PSP game - They do know but are waiting for QA from SEGA and Sony to pass before releasing a date. iOS - The Apple submission time varies so they can say "it is in submission" but cannot say when it is going to be released.

SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted October 18, 2011 SI Staff Share Posted October 18, 2011 Dec, chill please - Gazza has the right to ask questions, unfortunately its not always possible to answer them. He is obviously welcome to his own opinion, however I do expect as always that people remain respectful on these forums - thread is closing before it gets out of hand.
