My game (in matches) is very stuttering and laggy when playing with low settings. What's weird is that the game runs butter smooth if I select higher graphical settings, but then my laptop heats up like crazy and I don't really want to play that way. Is this a common issue? Does anyone have tips on how to improve the performance on low settings?

@XaW Completely OT, but ... heia Follo!

I miss posting in this annual thread

It's been a few days now, and I can't shake the disappointment with the decision to make the game a Netflix exclusive. Diminishing sales and all that, I get the business side of things, but it seems odd they could not have the game available for normal purchase with a 50% markup or something. It's a good game, I would actually be willing to pay a bit more than last year, but I have zero interest in Netflix and the subscription fee is too much to shell out for a game. Somehow I doubt SI will get a lot more regular users/players from this Netflix deal too. This game is really niche, I don't think a lot of casual gamers will download and immerse in a career. I wouldn't be surprised if the mobile game is cancelled for '25, which would be a shame. It's a fine little game, the dev team has done some great work.

Wow, seems SI really don't want me as a customer. First they ruined FMT for pc (the current version is not the same), so I stopped buying that. And now they're tying FMM to Netflix, of all things. I don't have Netflix, I have no interest in Netflix, and, yep, Miles is right, I'm not paying £60 for a mobile game.

Ages ago in an older version of FM, I found a regen named Maradona. Not Diego, but still. Maradona! Of course I had to sign him. I made him a permanent starter. Maradona! I kept him for his entire career, and although he didn't quite live up to his legendary name, he did win the Champions League. Yay!

So, Google just launched a beta version of their service "Google Play Games" "Take mobile gaming to your PC. Explore and play mobile games on PC with Google Play Games beta." https://play.google.com/googleplaygames I downloaded the app, but could not see FMM as a supported game. I can't imagine any game being better suited than FMM, and a similar game from another developer was there...wink wink cough cough I have no clue what it takes for a game to be supported, but I hope you will do some investigation down this path, SI dev team

I don't have any hard statistics to back this up, but is the penalty conversion rate a bit too low? I don't see that many penalties overall, neither for my team nor the opposition, but so many penalties are saved by the GK's. Anyone else having the same feeling?

@Ewan Aiton My device is a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G. It is running Android 12. Unfortunately I cannot help you with a save.

Easier said than done! Malaga is an interesting challenge. The first team squad is full of players aged 33+ with less than ideal personalities. Nobody wants to buy them, and I don't have a ton of money to release them and buy replacements. 🙂 Think this is going to be a long haul, letting the old guys' contracts run out and bringing in younger replacements for cheap.

I don't think he would refuse to come on? I didn't try it, I was surprised to see that message and chose another player. Didn't want to risk the game by bringing on someone who didn't care at all. I'm surprised a 19 year old doesn't want to be part of a winning team in a fairly competitive league (Spanish 2 div). Can professionalism change with training and overall good team performances?

We were 2-0 up, I was looking to bring on a sub to rest some legs and give another player some game time. Then I noticed he wasn't really interested in coming on! Why is this? Can I do anything about it? I have the least professional squad ever. Grade F. I'm looking to replace this lot, but it takes time to find new recruits so I have to make do with what I have for now.

Earlier today I meant to play a few matches, but before I knew it I had been playing for an hour and my phone complained about low battery. Misson accomplished, SI!
