has anyone cancelled


Recommended Posts

I cancelled my pre order after playing the demo. Got fed up of the game freezing before pre season was even finished and the inflated amount of injuries and fatigue in players.

Bought every version since 01-02 but when the game wont even run what can you do? Last years release runs fine so will play that if I need an FM fix.

Normally I manage to pre order at the £18 price point and missed that this time around which also put me off, £24 frankly seems to much for what I have seen.

Yes, cancelled mine. Not at all impressed with 3d ME and 3d representation, all the flaws and bugs with this are well logged so no need to repeat them. I wasn't expecting fifa style detailed graphics, but I was expecting more diverse and better animation and a better Me where players did not behave in such suspect ways. 2d is currently jittery and laggy on my machine too.

I see little point in perservering with it in its current state because the bugs and flaws will simply irritate and annoy me and spoil my enjoyment of the game.

However, I know it will be patched and it will be a great game to play...one day, but I'd rather wait until it has been properly and fully patched before buying it, rather than buying it, becoming frustrated with it, and it sitting on the shelf for six months until all the patches come out.

I just hoped that for once I could keep my mind on the actual game, and enjoy it fully - again - we're stuck with bugs and a beta client. It ruins the whole feeling of sitting down with a newly purchased game.

Now I'll always wonder if the long-shot spree is a bug, if the players are injured too much as a result of a bug etc etc - I just want a proper game that doesn't have its core features bugged somehow.

I'm going to buy this, I'm putting my faith in the release day patch.

It is a poor game, set up by poor SI staff!

No actually its the best football management simulation game on the market developed by a very hard working team of people who have one of the best after sales customer service...

Please name me a better Football management game currently on the market?

Yes Fm is the leader of the pack. Thing is that is as much due to the rest of them being utterly cack as it is Football Managers brilliance.

We really need somebody else to step up to the plate and produce a decent game which would force SI to dig deep and produce a better game.

He can't get the game to run, so he doesn't even know what FM09 is like...

quality game it has everything that i liked about 08 with nice new touches and the problems fixed. the 3d isn't what makes this game so good as i don't use it and think it looks horrible.

i thought 08 was absolutley brilliant and this game takes the poor bits and fixes them and then adds some nice new extras aswell.

Maybe too much detail for some people to enjoy it nowdays? in the past we have had threads where people wanted to pick up and play insted of spending soo much time on training, tactics, and to take in soo much information...

Just a thought.

You have the same chipset as me.. do you have a graphics accelerator? how did you pull that information out? let me compare it to mine...

Also what your RAM?

Yeah I have GFX acceleration, I used 'dxdiag' to get all that... If you don't know how then it's START>RUN>'DXDIAG' (without ')

I have 2GB of RAM. I have a good Laptop, and it should (technically) be able to run this game in 3D. It's a shame SI have yet to make it compatible with certain chipsets :(

It's your decision.

Personally I'm pretty dissapointed but that's nothing the real version have more updates than the demo and your probably just not used with it yes the gameplay is slow well then why not just do 2d I felt the same 08 I bought it the best game I've ever played.

Simple!
