Mooks Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I know this has probably been asked a million times before, but I’m thinking about ditching FM09 and going back to an earlier version of the game. But I don’t know which one. I was thinking FM07... What do you think was the best FM? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM09 is the best so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I enjoyed FM07 most as well I think. But I wouldn't be able to go back to it because of all the features added in the last two games that I would be missing out on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsforever Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM08 at the minute but FM09 will be when the bugs are corrected. It's the same every year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aiston Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM 09 for sure, still needs a patch, 2 at the most. But all looking good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy38 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM 07 seems to be the most recent, solid one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGB_SPURS_FM09 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM09 is king! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 To be honest, I wouldn't even be all that bothered if there were no more patches for FM09. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I think the key to enjoying FM is getting to grips with tactics and the match engine. I managed that with FM07, I think, so I was really into that. I've just started using the guide in the Tactics and Training Forum for FM09 and I'm now playing good stuff. So FM09 is getting close to overtaking FM07 for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cynet Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM09 is the best since release of the FM series and lets hope FM10 can better it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

feedthegoat Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Haven't bought FM09, will wait till after Christmas, but in reply to the original question, for me it was FM06. Mainly because it was reasonably easy and I actually managed to master it! Having played the FM09 demo patched, it does look a very playable game, I'm just concerned I may get confuzzled by the whole authentication thing :confused:.

humbucker740 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 07 is by far the funnest to play... i can't do it though.. even though it's better the new features make me feel like i'm missing out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes_83 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 09. I could never go back to the 2D engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhoy Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM06. Maybe FM09 once I get to play it (bloody DirectX Runtime won't install) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZMANGOLF Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Fm08 for me,certainly not 09 for me at the moment,unless the sis graphic cards situation can get sorted,I got the 3d for a one session and loved it,but then it stopped working,I think the 2d match engine has been messed up,and the lack of options for arrows on the tactics screen is frustrating also.

Mooks Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 I'm also wondring if I would find it hard to go back, I like so many of the new features... then again, I also dislike some of the new features... the stuttering 2D matches, press conferences, and I'm finding it a bit buggy... I really like FM09 tbh, I'm just wondering if I should wait for the next patch or something. I also wonder if I need to spend a bit more time, which is difficult, as I have very limited time, to try and master the game... as it seems like it needs a bit of mastering... the tactics for example. The guide is brilliant though, and the spreadsheet. But like I've seen other people mention, when it takes a 49 page document to explain the tactics, has it all gone a bit too far... I don't know, I just wonder if it's all got a bit much... and the press conferences, and the fact that I can't watch my matches anymore!... arghhh!

gie Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 FM07 rules! FM09 not running so smooth in my PC, and for many several reasons I've lost the excitement of playing FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of those expressing my concern about the need to read through a tactics forum. The game has the potential to be the most immersive yet, but i cant enjoy it knowing that there is definately something not right with the strikers. Overcooked it slightly on the tactics side i think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sydfc4ever Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 simply because of the a-league, i'm going with 07. i think this would be better as a poll, i think i may start it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
