saRp Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I believe SI is working their brains out and sweating over the new patch... Obviously Football Manager is the sweetheart of us all and FM 09 is probably the most highly anticipated version since the intro of 2D match engine... Maybe it would help us all if Miles posted a list of the changes that will be made to the game via the patch // it would save some threads and another tense 9 days... I wonder if any fixes to the 3D will be made // we all have to accept this is whole new and won't be a fifa-like thing but still, I'd prefer not to see my best defender lay on the green for 5 seconds after a tackle or seeing other weird things. (you know). I have a 8600 GT, 256 MBs and the latest driver, so I believe, it's neither me nor my computer. Speak up Miles Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vasilli07 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Yup, maybe release a fix list before the release date so that people can decide if they want to buy FM09 on the release day or wait for patch 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope of Pot, King of Nothi Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I think the defender lying flat on his back-side is an indication that he's taken out of play for x seconds... To be honest, given that the 3d representation is really just a further tactical tool, I don't mind that he's not lying on the ground wriggling like he's been shot! (i.e. maxi rodriguez today when gerrard stepped on his toe ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i.e. maxi rodriguez today when gerrard stepped on his toe ) hmmmm...maybe you're right about the defenders but still, some moves seem rather absurd, such as goalkeepers moves or running with the balls etc. the thing is, SI always made the greatest management games without doubt, but to be honest, there were other lousy management games that had much better 3-d match engines compared to the one we have in our hands...I remember the fifa manager 98, despite having a lot of bugs, it was still enjoyable (at that time Ronaldo was knocking himself out and it even reflected to ha game). All I'm saying is, with todays technology, SI's ability and a great base to build on, it's normal that the expectations were rather high. but I know it has potential, and as ever, will be the one to play after all.

Pope of Pot, King of Nothi Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Oh, well, no excuses for them not to have a life like engine next year, a la Crysis. Right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amadeo Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Will the new patch be out on the 14th? Otherwise I just have to wait to create a game... :S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Personally i would rather Miles and the team spent time working on the patch rather than posting on here, Im sure he feels the same! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Will the new patch be out on the 14th? Otherwise I just have to wait to create a game... :S SI confirmed that yes, the patch will be released on that date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
saRp Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 I hope the patch makes it OK - remember the CM4? It took like 3 patches to make things work. The code is like Ronaldo; having so much to offer yet going thru so many operations! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthiele Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 strange, i have a geforce 6800 ultra card. 3 years old. on a 64 dual core 4400+ 2.21 ghz with 2 mb ram. works fine for me. a few glitches usually after a goal has been scored but the game runs fast and smooth. my comp is around 3 years old. it seems to me that a lot of the problems could be laptops. i could be wrong though.

The_Kreman Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Yup, maybe release a fix list before the release date so that people can decide if they want to buy FM09 on the release day or wait for patch 2. The patch comes out on the same day as the game and a full list of the fixes is always included with the patch. So get up, get online, read the list and then decide whether or not to bother to head down to Woolworths Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gullee Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Good thing I have the GMA 965. My computer was bought this summer for $430 and runs the game perfectly. Couldn't ask for more. I like the 3-D engine too. Big step up from 2-D and that's all I was looking for. I'm sure it'll get graphically better and more streamlined in future versions.
