No crowd in 3-D...Good or bad idea ?

Apparently the game was designed with no crowd :s that confuses me a little,anyways i think it's a stupid idea.

It doesn't distract or bother me in any way. 3D in FM was never going to be about fancy graphical detail and realistic stadium effects etc. It's a tool that adds an extra dimension to the game, and for that purpose it is a success

I don't mind it to be honest, it would have slowed performance down even more so there was no need to have the crowd

A few simple dots to at least make it look like there is people in the crowd,and won't having "clickable" adverts in game slow it down at all ?

I don't care for a crowd as some games have silly big heads in scarfs which can get really annoying but I agree about the "clickable" adverts. If you play FM why on earth would you want to click on a link within the game to visit a website? I can see a lot of people clicking by mistake.

it makes you feel like your team is playing "closed doors football" lol the fm ai's musta been bad

seriously, there needs to be a patch that introduces crowds to the stadia.

A crowd would be needlessly superfluous.

Some crowds would be nice, instead of these very ugly huge grey patches of nothingness.

Also, the ball seems to complete 'disappear' when it enters those grey patches. Or if it doesn't it goes into orbit around the moon or something like that i guess.

Clickable adverts as pointless as stadiums and crowds. It's football manager not stadium observer.

whs

I would prefer a little enhancement crowd-wise, but it's not important. The match in high detail is great.

Not important to me, I would rather have the lower graphical demand on my computer by not having crowds. I'm too busy looking at the players to notice it anyway I really don't see any benefit to having a crowd.
