How long does it take to finish a season?

**ImOnFire15** · 01-02-2011 09:54

How long does it take for you to finish a season, 5 days, 1 week, 1 month, 2 weeks?

**wackettdagenham** · 01-02-2011 09:58

Don't know, I haven't made it yet!!!

**SWaRFeGa** · 01-02-2011 10:14

36 hours or so.

**Kenco** · 01-02-2011 10:19

Actual game time is about 24 hours, which could take me 2 days or 2 weeks depending on my circumstances at the time.

**bigtris** · 01-02-2011 10:20

Does it depend on how many leagues you have loaded tho? As I have lower leagues loaded.....down to level 9.

Mines about 2 days because of this, I think.

**anthony wright** · 01-02-2011 10:24

My season takes as long as it does IRL brcause I play virtually in real time. My challenge is that I like to see if I can do better with the team I am managing than the real manager over the season and finish in a higher position

**Adiem** · 01-02-2011 10:26

Usually a week - I'll finish one season and start the next over the weekend, and then usually get to around January by the end of the week... Not this weekend though, I have real life demands on my time

Woking will just have to wait a little longer for championship glory!

**TheGulls** · 01-02-2011 10:27

It depends on how much I get involved in but on average 5-6 days

**The Eagle** · 01-02-2011 10:30

It takes me for a week or so. However I can only play 3 to 4 hours per day, because I have to work during a day. So in total it is about 26 hours or so, adn I play with 17 Leagues or so. Have to check it tonight...

**Gundo** · 01-02-2011 10:35

When playing with my Norwegian league save (short seasons) takes me about a week to get through a full season.

**robertcornell68** · 01-02-2011 10:37

I aim for about a season week, which in my case is 15-20 hours.

**SynergyIso7** · 01-02-2011 11:46

I've got 8 games to go in the first season and I started this season in December. I probably play for about an hour every two days.

**milnerpoint** · 01-02-2011 11:50

i can do a season in two days if its the weekend, during the week not so much, but i can easily go through 4-5 seasons in a couple of weeks.

**MirrorrorriM** · 01-02-2011 11:50

I would like to do this but I dont have the patience. I guess you could load every league in the world and have a fully immersive experience as speed would not be an issue.

Takes me a good solid 10 hours for me per season with about 15 leagues loaded and all continental players loaded. 1st season about 20hrs as there is a lot more to do.

**dave byrd** · 01-02-2011 11:51

For me about 20-24 hours.

**Biscotti** · 01-02-2011 12:35

For me it's usually 5 days to a week.

Really, the factors involved are the number of leagues you have loaded (and which ones they are - a 30 game season will be much quicker than a 46 game season) and how fast your computer is.

In the challenge I'm running over in CSE one guy managed to get through 5 seasons in about 3 days.

**SuperDan!** · 01-02-2011 12:41

If I've got enough time in the week, it'll take me around 20 game hrs to complete a season with around 40+ teams in it. That entirely depends on my days off and everything and my spare time. In real time, a season will take a week or so for me to complete, I think I play too much.

Depends on how many games in your league per season of course, as the guy said above me. I managed Sydney FC for 5 seasons and I could get through a season in around 12 hours. I left Sydney and went onto Telford and its taking me a lot longer obv because of the cup games and a bigger league. It's a bit weird seeing only 2 days of game time and I'm in 2016 heh.

**Blackwolves** · 01-02-2011 17:27

a season per weekend!!!

did it last week end and another season through sunday to today

**lds** · 03-03-2011 20:33

2/3 months, as I play in full match mode, and do deep analysis either of my games and my next opponents.

**Death.** · 03-03-2011 21:13

^

Finally a sane answer.

2 days to finish a season?! I wouldn't even enjoy that. It would just be a complete blur.

I watch my games on Full Highlights and take my time, so probably around 1-1.5 months for a season if i stick at it. I can't do more than 3-4 matches in a day or else my brain fries. Typically i'll manage two matches a day. But i don't always find time every day.

**Fuzzbuzz1234** · 03-03-2011 21:16

Usually about 25 game hours, but about a month of normal time. Kind of jealous of those folks who whiz through with Career Games or end up in some ludicrous year like 2046.

**stevie_G_32201** · 03-03-2011 21:28

depends how involved i get, anywhere from 2 days to a week.

**Blue_magic** · 03-03-2011 21:44

Takes me a few days only play fm after 10pm family dutys!

**Pires FmSerbia** · 03-03-2011 21:53

Usually about 24 hours

**Lazaru5** · 03-03-2011 22:31

How long does it take to finish a season?

flippin ages!

I played my FM09 save for nearly 2 years straight. One save from new, and I only managed 18 and half seasons...

**lucas95** · 03-03-2011 22:33

25 hours of gameplay.

**av3ry** · 03-03-2011 22:52

About 18 game hours.

**rick_chelsea** · 03-03-2011 23:10

Depends with work, plus havent been on much lately as awaiting 11.3 before starting new. If i sat here and played FM solidly in one big session, I'd do a season in about 6 and a half game hours. Thats with 'only commentary' highlights or 'key 3d highlights' and the leagues loaded are Belgium top league, England to League 2, France top 2, German top 2, Portugese top, Spanish top 2, Italian top 2, Scottish top, Holland top 2, Greek top 2 and large DB

Ordinarily with casual playing id do a season over 2 days roughly

**rjfreeman** · 03-03-2011 23:23

I currently have a lot of free time. It taking me about 5-10 days per season.

**Football Manager.** · 03-03-2011 23:28

i manage to do it in one day proberly about 17 hours. at the absolute quickest. on average proberly about 24 hours+ a little maybe in game time

**CaptainPlanet** · 03-03-2011 23:57

43.91 Hours

Based on my total gametime divided by how many seasons I've completed.

Someone is a math geek

It usually would take me a week if not more to complete a season. But it's often more than a week to do that.

**Superowl90** · 04-03-2011 05:42

ive played 19 hours and am half way in my second season, although i have a very high end machine and only have about 12 leagues

**Robioto** · 04-03-2011 06:15

For me, anything between 10 and 20 hours depending on how much needs doing. Once I have a settled team and tactic I can cruise through seasons in as little as 8-10 hours. But then I'm not one to watch all the highlights in games. I always do key and will speed them up if the game is going well. I remember the days on CM01/02 when you could easily do a season in 3-4 hours!

**Viggo Vickers** · 04-03-2011 06:48

Can usually get through a season every 3 days or so when I'm on a roll (min 2, max 5), sometimes take a break or get delayed between seasons though with pre-season scouting and such.

**MSCCG** · 04-03-2011 06:50

a week or two

**Micco** · 04-03-2011 07:19

~ 2-3 weeks usually.

**streety** · 04-03-2011 08:15

weeks? days? oh my i have 5 games going simultaneously on separate saves my carer game I'm in my second season but the rest I have just kicked off the seasons

**sharpeOne** · 04-03-2011 16:38

not sure about game time, but playing time around a month or so, dam girlfriends and lives getting in the way

**ManUTactician247** · 04-03-2011 16:41

about a month, curse you stupid GCSEs...

**Mansleg** · 04-03-2011 16:45

What the hell? Are all you guys just constantly playing FM day and night?! Either that or you don't hang around to click 'Continue'/watch the match in super speed. I play it everyday for about 2-3 hours after/before work and it takes me about a 5-6 weeks to do a season.

**S.G.** · 04-03-2011 16:45

Between five and eight days on average, I'd estimate.
