As said how hard can it be to do the above things... how about the **** testing team start doing their jobs since this is hardly hard to spot. This same happened with EHM... upload, upload... well it took more than 6 months to sort basic stuff out even than. So.. NO.. I haven't uploaded since as said it really does not take much to see this. ..and than there are talks how this forum is getting worse and worse.

I can see your point though- with the glaring issues that SI chose to release the game with, its no wonder people are less than happy to do their testing for them.

Ackter Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 George - if he'd just started uploading his saved game when he came online to post here then it would already be with SI and they'd be able to look at it when they're back in work tomorrow. He already has the save games needed, it's not like SI are asking people to go out of their way to do things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took 6 months to get it sorted out and this is repeat show. The flaw is blatantly obvious that the only save game needed is the one you generate with your PC. This problem has already been talked to death in threads with General forum. CA's, PA's etc etc. So..thanks but no thanks. Just got involved because Mirrork was getting needless crap from other forum members. Oh.. you are correct George. I actually remember your nick from the good old wibble/wobble days. ..and other thing I do miss is the fact that Marc vaughan isn't involved that much in these forums anymore.

Ackter Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It was the same last year to be honest.

It astonishes me that so many people are unwilling to upload a save game yet spend loads of time complaining about their various problems. I'm not mentioning people in this thread or having a sly dig at anyone but it just astonished me. I have uploaded somewhere in the region of ..... (has a quick think).....25(ish) saves, and probably about (20)ish pkm's. I have had the reward of having some of the issues that I encountered, (and weren't too common by all accounts) fixed by the testing team. DOn't get me wrong, not everything is being fixed and I don't expect it to, but I know that I have done my bit. If a few others looked at things in just a teeny weeny bit more positive manner, the testing team might be able to fix even more bugs. This really isn't aimed at individuals in this thread, more GQ posters in general, so if you have iploaded saves to back up your complaining posts then I salute. ps. Seeing something fixed in the game, (even something tiny that hardly affects gameplay at all), that may or may not have been fixed as a result of my comments, is a simply BRILLIANT feeling.

tigerhgrrrrrr Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Agree with all points in original Post - but the game is not unplayable, it is immeasurably better than FM07 and the best game of SI origin since CM01-02 (in my opinion). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually this is version FM2008 has similar symptons. (Some older dropping their attributes like stone and younger guys stagnating) Oh.. there no bugs regarding this issue was stated. Pirated versions were blamed and almost Santa Claus was guilty. There were uploads after uploads ---> same story. No problems whatsoever. Oh.. as it happens the regen system/training model or whatever it was... well it was broken. It just took around 6 months to notice it and fix it. (Pretty much the same as here) So, that was the last draw for me. I skipped FM2007 version. I was hoping that these kind of things would be in the past by FM2008 but sadly not. As for the guy who stated that I don't have an clue what testing is about.. well you are entitled to your opinions...but just maybe I have been involved in these types of things.

Mike7077 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I suppose it all depends on your definition of unplayable. Taken literally, the game is not unplayable, because it can be played. Sometimes I suspect people mean considerably less enjoyable when they say unplayable. I, for one, have been quite critical of this incarnation of the game. Certainly more so than ever before. But do I still enjoy it? I have to admit that I do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK I agree that some who used a pirated verison wouldn't want to uploada their game to the FTP.

And on a side note. Those who claim that the way to get around the goalscoring bug is to change tactics is absolute rubbish.

Oz Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 From all I've hear about the shots bug, it seems that the main issue is that the user's tactic is normally very attacking, which leads to lots of chances, but, the game itself tries to keep the scores realistic by deciding on a score beforehand, one which you'd expect in a normal game, ie 3-1 2-2, etc. So surely the best way to combat the bug would be try try one of th edefault tactics? Has anyone tried this and got results? Presonally I have no problem with the shots on target "bug" I play ANelka as a lone striker and he scores most one-on-ones and shots. Having Riquelme, Young and Simao (I'm Villa) to back hium up obviously helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTavish Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 The weather bug is the only real gamebreaking issue for me. Playing 90% of matches on a waterlog pitch is pretty irritating. I know this doesn't happen for everyone but enough people have reported it to make it worth fixing surely. The number of chances created in most games seems unrealistic too. Especially playing a defensive formation you wouldn't expect to see the opposition creating 30+ shots on goal to your 15+ with any sort of consistency. In FM08 if your team creates less than 5 goal attempts in a match then it's cos you were totally outplayed, which is certainly not always the case irl. The way defensive midfielders get caught in possession is pretty annoying too. I don't think this can be put down to ppm's or player instructions, it's defo a bug. I could easily go on, there are literally hundreds of bugs in FM08 even since the patch. Every time I play it I seem to notice something else that isn't quite right. Regardless it's still a class game and I'm impressed with the progress SI have made in this edition, or rather I'm impressed by their ambition. There are many new features and improvements to the previous version and as such it's not at all surprising that their are lots of things that need tweaking. However, I do think that the game wasn't properly playtested and tuned before release, but this can be put down to the fac that the release date had to coincide somewhat with the new season.

xouman Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I again agree that there are some tactics that allow lots of shots and low success. Try reducing tempo and passing, it worked for me. Now I have similar shots than rivals but I score lots, including one on ones, but also lots of goals from AMs. You can say "my tactic creates a lot of chances and should work, I don't want to change it". that's like saying in COD that you always have to win playing with a machine gun, just because it fires a lot and has great power, and if you lose against a sniper is because he is cheating All scenarios need its own tactics, just change yours and see.
