Nomis07 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 It is a bug, same as the spanish players not getting registered. My irritation is that when downloading the patch it listed this particular bug as being fixed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gubbs Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I wonder just how many of the people who complain so vociferously about the game, actually did pay it? I am guessing, very few.

gubbs Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Oh and of course the game calculates the vast number of results according to pre-determined stats. Do you really think an Amiga 500+ could have calculated all the results in the Prem League, let alone Europe on 1mb of RAM? Get real! AS has been explained a thousand times; detail level affects results. It isn't a conspiracy if its _working as designed_ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathxxx Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I think it's unfair to compare PC sales and console sales. The PC games market is far bigger in terms of choice.

But I'd still like to know whether piracy is the reason or the consequence. Are people getting more selfish and dishonest? Or are they protesting against nowadays minimum effort with maximum profits-attitude of game publishers? I can myself say that I belong to the latter group, I don't confess anything here () but there aren't too much games which I would be happy to pay for. I don't play that much nowadays anyway, but if there really is something I see worthy I'll buy it (= it actually gives me something special). Too many games are rushed and brought up unfinished just to milk the money from the consumers. You can think that everything is worth something, that developers should earn their wages as they have used their time etc. to make a game. But I don't either expect anybody to pay me as I go to toilet and produce my own stuff, although I have put some effort and time to it. I've never actually found out why do console games cost that much, but my own conclusion has been that publishers are only being lame and charging more from those as they are harder to copy illegally. Then they can use the excuse of piracy so they can minimize their own expenses by making mediocre games for mediocre mass gamers. But the only way to cure this is to make buying computer games worthwhile. I don't know how this could be done but if the quality is like FM08s I really don't wonder that people don't use their money for a 30 minutes to couple of days' "enjoyment" which ends as the DVD flies to the bin or out the window.

Keify Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I played with a Spanish team pre-patch and had the bug where all your players would get un-registered. I'm now currently playing a new game with the new patch as Lubeck in Germany. I played my first season in Regional Division North and I am currently in April of my second season in the 2nd Division. So far I have not experienced the bug affecting Spain while playing in the German league. There was one match that my reserve GK was ineligible for a game just after the second registration window but he was ok after that. I'm not saying that just because it hasn't happened to me, its not a problem. But at the same time, just because one or more people experience it, doesn't mean that "Germany is unplayable" either. Put a bug report in the bug forum and see what happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 This is why SI are making FM live now. Online games are the way to go to stop piracy. Thats why no one pirates games on consoles any more. Everyone used mod chips for Xbox and Ps2 to play pirated games but now with the 360 and PS3 you would only do that if you will never connect your console online which is a waste since there are not many good off line games left. Only good offline game for PC or console is FM07. FM08 has to many bugs to be considered a good game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rem-8 Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 Well, by the posts here of some of you I feel offended. I play original game every since CM3, haven't used DT not any other sh**. I found out that I could register players just before the game - it was just random unregistering, but was able to do it though. I haven't posted it in the bugs forum, because I didn't have an ability to post a save to FTP. I just thought that playing new German division will bring me fun, not the stress and fury. Cheers.

There are masses of brilliant SP games on the PC. For the people quoting Halo sales. 1) It's Halo3 not 2. And the amount of people with Gaming Quality PCs (£2k+) verses a 360 (£200) is naturally a chasm of enormous proportions. And Crysis is terrible compared to COD4, both graphically and gameplay-wise.
