OMG some news about the FM10 Demo!!!

[ahmufcwafc]

Hey, I figured if KitKat can use OMG in official communications then SEGA should definitely get in on the act. I think its REALLY cool...

Sorry for trying to cramp your style Matt

If it helps at all, I think it's really cool too. It suits you

[TheGulls]

I guess your going to have to hire some more testers pretty soon, so please let me know my start date.

I like the thought of working in a potentially dangerous environment, oh what is it you do again ?

[karlrobertuk]

Best thread i have read in ages guys....lol, No dont kill any more of your testers miles, Its only 34 days and counting till its meant to be on sale.......

[The-Perfect-Fm'er!]

******* Matthew.

At least it's done in a name title that mocks young, immature scoundrels asking about the demo IMO.

I need a beer.

[Nik_Dut]

Matt already have the demo !!!


PM him for one. ;p

He's the man in charge of Marketing the product, I'd be worried if he didnt

He aint sharing though

[Matt ex SEGA]

As far as I'm aware he's still under the ground....

Nope, I don't have the demo yet - I don't actually think it exists at the moment, they guys are still working on the game. The demo gets made when they're happy with that.

Miles - sorry. I got bored when I shut my 343rd "hey d00dz i can haz d3m0 plsz when is it coming zomg???" thread. So I nicked and twisted your idea and started this one...

I think I'm getting quite good at the textspeak though.

I was trying to work out what word 343rd was meant to be text speak for.

Cool Kid Fail.

Try that in LLM or the Hut and you'll be strung up.

I had a regen on FM called Knutsen.

[SCIAG]

See post 5.

[arsenal_2111]

See post 5.

Yeah, but doing it to Ter is better

Did you plan to do it to the person who did it last time? If not, that's quite a coincidence

[SCIAG]

Yes, I did.

[Miles Jacobson]

Matt is correct - no one has a demo yet, as the demo will only be created once the game is in manufacture.

[stevie_G_32201]

any ideas on the file size approx for the smaller version?

[Matt ex SEGA]

No, not til it's constructed I guess.

[yugo23]

Chuck Norris already tested FM10 demo.

[Fabio MVP]

Chuck Norris already tested FM10 demo.

Ahahahahaha

Chuck Norris can play demo with huge database

[peter-evo]

Ahahahahaha

Chuck Norris can play demo with huge database

And he doesn't own a computer.

[Matt ex SEGA]

And he doesn't own a computer.

No. Chuck Norris just owns YOU.

[deanzzz]

This alarm will sound every 3 seconds, unless something isn't okay!

[H Y P Z]

Rumour has it that the 1000th person to reply to this thread gets the DEMO before it goes gold.

[BeautifulGame]

Rumour has it that the 1000th person to reply to this thread gets the DEMO before it goes gold.

The demo will be out by the time there are 1000 replies

[Da_Funk]

May I ask, is there the risk to have some problem like last year (problems with non-P.S.2 video cards and similar) and have to eventually download external SDK or similar, patch at day 1 and so on...or did you learn the lesson? ^_^

[TomHAVFC]

What a stupid OP, how hilarious. ha.

[FM5]

close this topic, or change the title to "spam topic"

[2FS]

Pfft. I don't believe in this so called 'God' or 'QA testers'

[Matt ex SEGA]

Banned.

There's much less chance of that happening as the config testing has been much more comprehensive this year.

[peter-evo]

What a stupid OP, how hilarious. ha.

It's actually a good op.

[ArseFly]

Banned.

Seriously, this is best thread in ages..


and demo for 1000th post will certainly happen. ^^

[Konnan511]

I wonder if a tester dies every time someone asks if a new EHM is in the works....

[shrekiejai]

Do SI invite testers in Australia?

If so, i might need to start asking some questions about the demo in order to get in...

[potheadpunk]

This new game best be worth it!
I had to throw my Sony Vaio that has been my trusted companion for many years through my time playing the old championship manager all the way thru to football manager 2008 against the wall, because apparently it was too crap to play 2009. So i had to go out and buy a brand new laptop just so i could play last seasons version! So whilst i would prefer that you guys could refund me the £600 i paid for the laptop, i would appreciate if u could just make sure before you start manufacturing the game that it is the worlds best ever version of football manager there will ever be! Have i got any chance of getting that £600 back, or maybe i could blag a free copy of the game (and dont suggest i download the demo if i want a free version of the game )

Back on track tho, this is the worst part about football manager! Its now the end of september, i am finally fed up of football manager 2009, because my gf doesnt let me play it when im spending time with her (she thinks i should be concentrating on her not playing the game, even though spending time with her, means cuddling up whilst watching eastenders and other crappy stuff. she made me watch 'ghost' the other night.... the things i have to do for the sake of ....... ill let u fill that in with ur own dirty minds). Ive won all i can win on fm2009 cos i only ever seem to manage in the english leagues, and ive won the world cup numerous times, ive earnt a filthy rich amount of money from my career as the manager of man utd. I enjoyed starting a new game, and ruining cristiano ronaldo's career, by using a real time editor, and swapping him with a player from luton, and ensured that he earned a pityful wage, and whenever a top team bid for ronaldo, i added a new manager as manager for that team so that bid would get cancelled. So i enjoyed seeing ronaldo turn 32 and still playing league 2 football
ok, im getting no where with my point now.... i love football manager and when the new game comes out, ill wake up, play football manager, goto work, finish at 1am, and get home an play football manager till 9 in the morning before i goto bed, and repeat the whole process until the weekend when i have my daughter and ill just play football manager all day long because she is only 3 but she loves watching me play the game, i even stupidly ask her if i should sign this player or not (not a good idea if u dont wanna sign a **** player). So i love the game, but i hate waiting till october for it! Its hell! its too long to wait. Football manager gets me thru the summer without any football on the tv, and now im bored of it. and now i have to wait until the end of october for the full game! argh!

[arsenal_2111]

Oh no, not the washing up

He must have ripped up League 2 tbh - don't suppose you have any screenies of his history do you?

[Blanchflower1]

Are you sure about this mate??

[yugo23]

In the meantime, every time someone asks about the release date of the demo without reading this, god kills one of our QA testers.

Does it matter? You can always have regen testers.

[celebritykiller]

Does it matter? You can always have regen testers.

Awesome, as they'll be one footed no doubt there bound to have excellent testing stats.

[grep]

The active participation of SI on the forum, before, during and after the game production is always a classy touch, despiting some critics I have moved regarding some aspects of the game , I find myself really an happy customer dealing with SI gorgeous products.

[Mooski]

This new game best be worth it! ... argh!

Cliffnotes: I talk too much.

Seriously though guys, funny OP.

[Octavianus[GER]]

Haha, you just made my day. Thanks!

[elliott macca]

Is kevin davies gonna be any good on fm10???!! like he really is

[Matt ex SEGA]

Slightly better than Messi.

[Kriss]

That would be Fred Messi who turns out for the Dog and Duck?

[The-Perfect-Fm'er!]

I think he just means, he'll be able to play a little but still will be pretty messy when it comes down to the elbows, shirt tugging and general footballing ability...It's just that Matt can't spell.

[SL19]

will campbell be at notts county in the demo?

[elliott macca]

i ment will he have a slight attribute change!! and im guessing no for campbell

[rinso]

will campbell be at notts county in the demo?

he'll be on a free transfer, but unable to sign for anyone til january, i think...

[shrekiejai]

The lack of blogs is giving me the urge to emmm.... knock out... one of the testers

[Ely-matty]

[Highor]

Monday FM10 Demo announcement?!

[Ely-matty]

Monday FM10 Demo announcement?!

where do you read?

[Matt ex SEGA]

Nowhere....

[Jayhinton]

I'm shocked, Matt, by your blantant pirating of my Twitter post from earlier in the week and taking all the credit for yourself.

Although an interesting twist there, particularly as all the fairies had already been killed by those asking about the demo on Twitter. Poor fairies.

The worst thing about all of this is that the more testers who die because of this, the longer the game and the demo will take to come out.....

Can i be a tester then, im willing to take the chance of being killed by some numpty asking for the demo release!

[arsenal_2111]

The Jammy nickname started with me :*)

Dhuey <3

Strangely, you came up on my 'You may know' thingy on Facebook earlier

[Fantaman]

Is the game actually going to be tested this time properly, or will it be another heavily flawed release, unplayable until the first update. Given the previous poor record of Football manager games being worthwhile to play without an update, I'd suggest the testers employed by SI in the past should be die for simply not doing their job.

And let me guess for Football manager 2010, in order to buy other players (even average ones) it will cost 150% over their value but selling your own will be near on impossible unless at value or they being superstars.

Such faith is admirable :P

[Nadessico]

it's true, when i beta tested 08 and FML we never really tested, we just had random party's and picked on users who couldn't see the forums

ok we actually just picked on Ter

[arsenal_2111]

Wow, that must make you feel so big and cool. <3

[4GIVME]

eagerly waiting for this fuker.

[stuartb1234]

so... whens the demo out then?

[Bwfcdan]

so... whens the demo out then?

In approx 7 minutes

[thnigelfc]

friday 16th october 0:00 hrs

[pooman2279]

In the meantime, every time someone asks about the release date of the demo without reading this, god kills one of our QA testers. So please, everyone, think of the testers...

SI have QA testers!?

[bollekewol]

If there is cheap scotch on those parties, I want in!

[Spurs1979]

Came to the forums specifically to see if there was a release date on the demo yet, took 2 minutes to find this thread & all the information I wanted, cheers for the update

[David Beckham_7]

Anticipating the demo so that i can show Leonardo how to manage AC Milan. I myself will be going on loan to Milan soon.

[Chinese_Taboo]

I think we should have a guessing competition for when the demo is coming out.

My guess is Wednesday 14th October 2009!

[Tommy Styles]

Since I can't get an answer anywhere.. (and refuse to give up!) will FM2010 be playable on Mac OSX Tiger (10.4.7 or something..)? Since the problems caused with last version, where it worked, but after a patch

[CHINNERY]

is it out yet?

I just had a look on a torrent site and it was there.... fake?

[Staf9]

That would be Fred Messi who turns out for the Dog and Duck?

Sorry just reading this thread in work and laughed dout loud at that post

[Latimerinho]

is it out yet?

I just had a look on a torrent site and it was there.... fake?

More than likely. Has the game even reached 'gold' yet?

[CHINNERY]

More than likely. Has the game even reached 'gold' yet?

Dunno what going "gold " means , but yeh - the file is huge and its probably a virus , so i wont risk downloading it.

[Ter]

Going gold is when the game is finished and has gone off to be manufactured. And no, that hasn't happened yet.

[Fabio MVP]

So Ter is demo going to be gold?

[Ely-matty]

Going gold is when the game is finished and has gone off to be manufactured. And no, that hasn't happened yet.

but in few days, the game going gold?

[srwlml23]

What a fantastic read.. Haha

[arsenal_2111]

Miles explained where the game is at in todays blog. Have a look on there to see when the game could go gold.

[Rb]

So Ter is demo going to be gold?

Unless it is wholly stated as a 'beta demo' always expect the demo to be a gold one. This demo certainly will be

[Highor]

Like i said, today the demo announcements. 2 weeks before the game will the demo be released

[Uquillas]

when is the demo being released?

[Rb]

when is the demo being released?

Please read the thread . There is no release date. It will be released 'around' 2 weeks before the official release.

[Uquillas]

Please read the thread . There is no release date. It will be released 'around' 2 weeks before the official release.

I thought we were already 2 weeks before release?

[arsenal_2111]

Fast forward 10 days and yes, yes we are.

[thundercracker]

I know this is very doubtful, but given the high level of excitement regarding the new data editor will a demo data editor be included with the demo or will all us die hard editors have to wait until the 3oth to release our creative juices?

[hamilton162]

The new editor will only be released with the game

[arsenal_2111]

No, it won't. Someone has already confirmed this. It's because we can't start new games on the demo, so it would be pointless. Also, it would make the file size huge.

[thundercracker]

Damn. Cheers.

[arsenal_2111]

No worries. Just imagine how much you'll be looking forward to using it after you play the demo and get a nibble of it!

[thundercracker]

To be honest I would rather have the editor than the demo. I could then have everything I want to do ready for the game being released.

[Fabio MVP]

Please read the thread . There is no release date. It will be released 'around' 2 weeks before the official release.

Thanks.

[chopper99]

Quality thread

Is Skorp dead yet?

[jackripper]

i got a feeling its going to be this sunday released with the News of the World......Hopefully!!

[Super Bladesman]

i got a feeling jackripper is going to be wrong

But we can dream...

[Mooski]

If the blog is on the Mirror website, they wouldn't be giving the demo out with the News Of The World, as they're from different companies. More likely (if they release it at all this way) that it would be with the Sunday Mirror.
