dave byrd Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Happens to me every year. I start a new career on release day and really get into it. The more you play (and read on here!) the more bugs and issues you become of.. Now i know saved games are always compatible with patches but from experience i've seen countless issues that are only resolved by starting a new game. I always have a long career on FM and like as many issues as possible to be fixed but i'm already 3 seasons into my current save! So what will you be doing?

homerjnick Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I would say about 95% of bugs in any FM game are fixed in a saved game. Perhaps only regen issues. I have a cracking game with Leeds and I'll be sticking with that in 9.2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBI Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hopefully the Swiss bug will be fixed with patch 9.2 - than I will start a game with the Swiss league included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ando THFC Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I won't starting again. I want the bug fixes in my current game which I'm enjoying but can't settle into it because I think we really need that second patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 I think i may just stop playing till the patch comes out. The game not remembering your previous screen in a match and goals being scored that you can't see (only through replays) annoys the hell out of me currently.

dean66683 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 i will for 100%. stopped playing fm09 a week ago. its not a bad game it's just after playing the fully patched fm08 for so long and then comparing it to fm 09 the problems (as few n small as they are) just seem so annoying.

dave byrd Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 My current gripes are: *Game not remembering your previous screen in a match and goals being scored that you can't see (only through replays) *2D classic very jerky, all other views fine *Teams going years without a manager (Blackpool in my game not had a manager or even a cartaker for over 2 years) *Manager acheivements vanish when they move clubs after starting a new game *Hall of fame ranking not showing in manager information screen (where it tells you league wins goals scored ect) *Players getting upset when you praise them *Too many injries during the matches (although overall its fine i feel) There are more but these are for me the main ones. If they are all fixed in the patch for my current save i'll be very pleased. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 Is that known to be fixed in 9.2? Well they gave the standard response of "we are aware of this issue and its under review" in the bugs forum. Easily the most annoying bug in the game for me.

Richard76 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I usually start a new game when the final patch is released. Don't think I will be this time though. The only real issue I have now is the magic throughball from the AI goalkeeper. Won't need to start a new game for that to be sorted out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednwhites Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Not sure. Finishes a season with Chester and consolidated their place in L2, got to third round of FA Cup. Brought in some decent bargain players in the summer such as David Fox and Cedric Avinell and want to push on. Probably stick with it tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, so if you don't experience a particualr issue but others do it's fine then is it? Do you think they shouldn't look at bugs because you don't notice them? Every issue i have mentioned has been acknowledged by SI and is under review (have a look in the bugs forum). Would appear to me that you need to pay more attention to your game...

Glenn Wakeford Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Other than data issues, or issues with competition rules and structures almost all changes in patches take effect on save games. So unless you specifically want the new data or the competition fixes and are attached to your save game you may as well stick with it (IMO). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know they were necessarily confirmed. But even if they were, I tend to believe that discussion about bugs needs tempering by the fact that not everyone will have experienced them.

I just felt from your earlier post that you were being dismissive towards the issues (that i assure you are all confirmed) i was having with my game, like you were saying 'well i dont get then so can't see a problem' kind of thing'.

Hehe it hasnt affected my personally yet, I'm playing a Southampton game and an Eastleigh game so I havent had those problems, but I know people have the bug so thought I'd ask on their behalf, I was going to say "if you know" somewhere in my post, but tiredness means I couldnt work out quite where to put it!

Lazylen Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Im just hoping the new patch will be released soon... my fingers are burning with an incredible eager to play the game..but with all these bugs it takes away my love for the game. So lets hope it will be released in the beginning of december instead of late december of even the beginning of january... My new game with all nations/competitions selected and a 30 year old unemployed nobody wants to be played! Im dying to make myself the best manager in the world doing it the hard way!

Jimbokav1971 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I have no intention of starting again. I haven't found any game-breaking bugs and have been trying to ignore a lot of the clap-trap that gets spouted in here about serious issues... I have encoutered some small graphical stuff, and a small annoyance with Ass Man feedback, but that's just about it. Not seeing too many long shots. Not seeing too many chances created by long punts. Big improvement on this stage last year if you ask me:thup:. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I will be starting a new game to get any new data and also to (hopefully) solve the FA Cup issue.
