ViG1980 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm getting a 1-star rating so I had a couple of questions: 1. What does this mean exactly 0 if I had 5 stars, would the graphics be better? The engine runs really smoothly as is.... 2. I'm on Mac and have a very good graphics card - is just the fact that I am on a Mac resulting in the lower rating? Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikey Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I only get a 1 star result on my PC but the match runs perfectly on high detail. The star system is clearly a bit of a guess which is not correct in all cases, unless I have totally misunderstood what it represents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLS Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Agreed, I'm only a one star and I have no problems at all (and wouldn't expect to, 09 ran fine). Unless this is of course a bizarre reverse rating system and one star is good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViG1980 Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 Do you think the graphics would be better with a higher rating? Maybe smoother edges or something....thinking out loud here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
I\'m Brian (and so is my w Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I have a 1 star rating as well 3d works perfectly though (speed + looks) very strange if 1 would mean bad and 5 good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioan Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 The demo shows me only 1 star rating and the 3D match runs like **** in demo. I have 2,3GHz Intel Core Duo-processor, 256MB Ati Mobility Radeon 3470-videocard and 4GB Ram, on my Sony laptop bought in february this year, with Vista on it. So normally, the 3D match option in the game should work smoothly. I am very dissapointed, taking in consideration that they said FM2010 will work faster and better than FM2009 with the same computer specifications like last year. The demo proves the contrary, so I think I'am not buying it anymore, I shall cancel my online order for the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A8Rez Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I have a laptop with specs well over the recommended, and I also get a 1-star rating, even though it runs without a problem on high graphics. My guess is that is has something to do with how your computer can run the game, though. And if I'm right it's not working very well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eugster Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm noy sure but it's the same for me and runs good so I think that it gives everyone 1 star on the demo but it'll be proper on the realesd game. Like the battery life indicator is always on 87% for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if I'm right it's not working very well FM 2009 it works fine, smoothly, the 3D match is a pleasure to watch, but in the demo of FM2010 the 3D match works very bad comparing with FM2009, I mean the players are trembling when they are running.

ioan Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Actually, the 3D match in FM2010 demo works like the 3D match in FM2009 demo and in 9.0.1 patch. Starting with 9.0.2 and 9.0.3 the 3D match was perfect, without trembling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaroq Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm also on a Vista laptop, dual core, no graphics card beyond the built-in ...I was very impressed with the Demo. On FM'09 I had to crank the graphical detail down to the minimum to avoid the stuttering you guys are describing; on the FM'10 demo its been smooth from the get-go. Sounds like a "your mileage may vary" situation - ioan, your laptop has mine beat cold on every spec, so I don't know why yours doesn't perform.

I am at work right now but this evening when I'll get back at home I shall make a Vaio Update for all my laptop drivers, then the last update for DirectX in Vista from Microsoft (it dates from August 2009), even though I made the update proposed in the Demo. After that I'll remove the Strawbery Demo then install it again. Hope the 3D match will work without shuddering this time. I'll tell you the result.

trekman Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Just curious but does having windows7 installed make any difference to the star system used in fm2010? Even though its not supposed to be available until the 22nd I've just taken delivery of this os but would like to know how it would affect fm before installing. I currently have the strawberry vesion of the demo installed on vista and am getting 3 stars and the graphics are on full detail and the performace is a great improvement over fm2009. I really dont want to install windows7 if its going to affect the performance of fm so I might wait for the release of both the full game and the first patch(for fm) before installing windows7.

cynet Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 The rating system needs tweaking as it states mine is one on the laptop but have a good system and a good graphics card where it plays all the latest games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calcioplayer Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have a top spec gameing pc and only get 1 star but it runs like a dream top settings so I think the Star system on the demo is not working right ( FM10 is awsome cant wait until the 30th) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the top and if you get one star only for this setup the FM graphic report system is definitely broken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastema Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have an Radeon X1650 (agp, 512megs) and I get 1.5 stars. The game runs smoothly on high detail... way better than '09 ever did. Here's me hoping it won't slow down in the full game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyrich Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I to am confused with the 3D rating. I have a Dell XPS M1530 dual core 2.50ghz, 4GB RAM and a NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics card. The game runs smoothly yet my rating is only 1.5 stars.... surely it should be more than that with those specs?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 There is a problem that has been noted with the ratings system. FWIW, ive only got half a star and dont have any real problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEFC Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have 5 stars and 3D doesn't run at all on my system in this years version. I'm not really bothered because I usually stick to commentary only but yeah, the star rating system they've implemented doesn't work very good.

Sonic2006 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 My mate has a top of the range PC, I just helped him download the demo. When I say top of the range, I mean £2,400s worth two weeks ago (!!!) and he gets 1 Star rating... wtf!? Mine gets one star too, fair enough mine isn't as good as his but mine runs GTA4 and Fifa10 PERFECTLY! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that I'll remove the Strawbery Demo then install it again. Hope the 3D match will work without shuddering this time. I'll tell you the result. Well, I did all that and the 3D match still has a vibrating efect on the ball and on the players when the match speed is one level up from normal position. I hope SI will fix this problem in the official release of the game. Is not normal to have this kind of effect on a notebook with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 that has 256MB GDDR3 dedicated and up to 1400MB shared video card and a system with Intel Core 2 Duo mobile P8400 2x2.26Ghz (1066mhz FSB, 3Mb Cache) and 4GB RAM DDR2 800MHz, considering that on computers with lower specs this doesn't happen. I'll be grateful to have an opinion from SI concerning this issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broadsword Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Could be wrong about this, but maybe the star system is only accurate on fully supported graphic cards? As I understand it mobile chipsets are not supported fully. My laptop runs Empire Total War on full detail with no problems and the FM10 demo also on full detail, but I only have 1/2 star 3D rating. Strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne\'o Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 i am only guessing but i think it's mearly a guide to the strenght of your g-card, there is also a star rating for processing speed so like the graphics i thinks it's a guide to how ones machine can cope with the current leagues running, ie more leagues to run the stars will decrease?
