Torres09 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Seriously people, if a striker misses a chance, a defender heads it past his own keeper, a new signing gets injured, a club asks for a different price for a player than IRL, a club has a couple of million less in the bank than you think they should, a club buys a player that 'would never happen in real life', you lose to a crap club in the cup, you concede three penalties in one game, you get three players sent off in one game, another character in the game repeats something that has been said previously etc etc etc it is a football management sim game, IT IS NOT A DOCUMENTARY! Obviously the game won't replicate real life perfectly as it is not possible to. Just use your imagination on some issues and ignore the odd moment of madness. It could be worse, the game could not exist at all..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celtic_1967 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I second this point of view. Lets all chill out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine_iron Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Every year I complain that this game lacks breasts but now with female managers.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFCJack Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I used to moan that Gary O'Neil scored goals on FM and doesn't in real life now I moan about how Afonso Alves scores too many on FM and Mido isn't injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dankrzyz Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Thank you and well said, Torres09 (and Celtic1967). I wish that message would spread on these boards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwilko6 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Every year I complain that this game lacks breasts but now with female managers.... Haha if we were allowed sigs, you would have made it onto mine! I have to agree with the OP actually, everyone has a right to moan, but at least make it about something that is genuinely out of place. "Juventus wont accept my bid for Buffon and set an asking price of £115m, they would accept this in real life!!!" I mean come on, nobody would even bid for him in real life!

Christiano07 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 i agree 100%. this is a game and in my opinion a great game. not real life a game. it allows me to unwind for a couple of hours after work each night in my own little world.

Jonfun1980 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Alright how about the fact that I played a full season yesterday running 46 leagues to find out that on the 24th July 09, the game will crash and you can't advance thanks to a bug to serie c.

Good point well made. I think 09 is an improvement on the previous version and still a world class game. Though I don't find it relaxing. I sit on the edge of my seat during some matches.

In fairness, I don't think the OP was commenting on serious game ending issues like this. If you moan about this you are not being pedantic, but some of the threads really are.

paulpaps Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Isn't that becuase it's pirated?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzález Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 A good idea is to play a league you are not used to, say Italy Spain, etc, rather than England. This way if team X loses to team Y, or certain teams sign certain players, you won't get annoyed because you're not sure whether that's likely to happen IRL or not. The same way, once you're 7 years into the future, half the players are regens so anything can 'realistically' happen and you can stop complaining Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
