swisso Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Can't seem to find the Tutoring option, or asking the player to learn a new PPM ? Aside from that, there's a lot of white-space on my monitor with the loss of the side menu bar. The pastel colours on white are destroying my eyes, so i'll definitely switch to another skin with the full version. I like the way that Coaches now approach you for a job and that the Ass-Man now reccommends Coaches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM andy Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 ive played it for a while now and i must say i love it, im still trying to find out where everything is but the 3D match engine has taken a huge leap forward and although the crowd animations look fake its a great touch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robes2 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I really like the skin but one thing always annoys me about FM, why does everything have to be so impersonal? Why is there a list like this on the feedback screen: Old Squad High Aggression High Concentration High Determination Good Dribbling And within each of those there is message something like this: "Tommy Wilson is pleased that the squad is more aggressive than most other squads in the league. The most aggressive squad is Dundee Utd and the least aggressive is Motherwell." Firstly these messages are just completely unrealistic and bizarre, there is useful information but it's just displayed so poorly. How hard would it have been to include all of this information within one simple team report similar to a player report? Instead of comparing the squad with the best and worst in each catagory in the league your assistant manager could compile reports of other teams too. Something like: "Tommy Wilson believes that the squad shows fantastic mental strength and technical ability. Tommy thinks that the main strengths of the squad are the physical nature of the players and their technical prowess and has suggested that the tactics should rely on these positives rather than aiming to achieve success through creativity or flair. However he is concerned that the squad is ageing and we now have the oldest average age within the Premier League, it may be prudent to invest in youth." I just dislike the way information is presented so clinically and without personality, I think it more realistic for staff members to compile real reports.

The Vet Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I have not played for long yet, and will probably return with more. Have this one thing for now: Why not make the matchviews player redefinable, instead of the same (pretty much) useless views as in 2009? This should include zooming, doing 360 at the press of a few keys. I am still dumbfounded why it hasn't been incorporated. The analysis is a fine tool, but it seems very bothersome to use.

Moonshine Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Can't seem to find the Tutoring option, or asking the player to learn a new PPM ?. Click on the player you want to train/ be a tutor. The click interaction in the top left, then 'comment on player'. The options are within that area, under PPMs and 'Linked Player', like in previous editions.

JulianStark Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Some thoughts: Loving the new interface, although the white kinda blinds me. Many improvements all around. Loving the return of the Send to Reserves untill Matchfit button... the custom squad screen builder (although the list keeps resetting to the top when I add a category to the list). It plays smoothly, players haven't committed any gaffes yet. Liking it so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTHerringbone Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 My early impressions are very good. Interface is good, skin is nice and clean, tactics creator feels like it will work, being able to search more countries is nice. Best thing for me is that my ancient laptop installed, loaded and runs the game a lot faster than FM09. Early days but thumbs up from me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robes2 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 This (below) is easy to read quickly......whereas this isn't. Yes but there is no reason that a Positives and Negatives list couldn't be included in the report. It's just always presented in such a clinical manner with no personality. My personal feeling is that on the feedback screen I would rather see individual reports from different members of staff rather than a list of bullet points from all of them that contain bizarre sentences within them.

LeGenD Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Stats are not very good this year, as manager of MAN UTD, i demand to know the fitness levels of the match officials!!!!!! . On a more serious note, what a fantastic surprise this year's game has turned out to be, absolute quality. Cannot see this game moving from top spot in game charts. Wish list would be to see next instalment beef the player's up, less wooden for want of a better word. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Very very good so far. Love the new layout, and the new tactics creator is fantastic (it won't make me a better manager, but at least I'll have a better sense of what I'm trying to do!) I think I said many times before that FM has been looking tired and old lately, but this new version is exactly what was needed. Feels like a completely new game and I'm going to spend hours just noodling around the countless menus and options. So far, so good.
