Doyle Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hello gents, Was just wondering if anyone else also plays FM 07, much like myself. Didn't manage to purchase 08 so decided playing 07, any other fellow 07 gamers on the boards? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavnoble Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 FM 2007 urinates all over FM 2008 from a great height. By far the more enjoyable of the two games to look at and play. That's why I'm still playing FM 2007 at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihateregistering Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 i prefer 2007 still, i could never quite get into 2008 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
viperk1 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Haven't been able to afford FM 2008, and haven't got the time to go out and buy it anyway, what with college starting up again. It's FM 07 for me...and I love it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimowicz Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 there are so many more things that i prefer about fm08 tbh. i reinstalled fm07 some months ago when the transfer & confidence system in 08 bled the enjoyment out of it for a while, but i played an fm07 match just last week, and i honestly couldn't do that again. i find that fm08 is way easier to adapt to, and players are (since 8.0.2) more responsive to tactics. i've also had quicker and more dominant sucess, in the prem in particular, on fm08. however, i must admit it was a better transition from fm06 to fm07 than it was with fm07 to fm08. i never had a reason to go back to fm06.

SAFCrhys_keanoFTM Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I like FM 07 but I play on FM 08 all the time now as find it more enjoyable, the one thing I can't stand about FM 07 is that in every game one of my players always got injured, it was so frustrating.

Matt SFC Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I'm back to FM 07, just much more enjoyable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 The 4-2-4 AI tactic is making me consider going back to 07. Migh be interesting to go back, I'm considering missing out FM09 too unless there's a really big feature included so I could be playing FM 07 right up untill late 2009! lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doyle Posted June 24, 2008 Author Share Posted June 24, 2008 So you guys find FM 08 more difficult than FM 07? I am stopping playing for awhile as I was finding FM 07 really difficult :S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassien Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I tried to go back to FM07 the other week, but I just couldn't. Didn't feel right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleuk8 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 out of interest has anyone got an updated DB for FM 07 They could send me? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
follow the blind Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 have played played fm 08, just never really got into a game, though internationalk management is loads better in that version. They have some cool new features but i just think overall it was a backwards step. I still play fm07 everyday and i dont know if i will ever get bored of it lol.

MSCCG Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I could never play for more than a few seasons previous to FM08, this version has got me hooked, I'm playing in my tenth season at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cometdude Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I'm playing FM08, best of the games so far, but I might actually stick 07 in for a while tonight got a good save game that I was enjoying until I got 08, mighty boston utd with 35 year old Rooney!

Kain Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I'm still playing FM07. Or to be more accurate, I sold FM08 months ago and went back to FM07. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam_dufc Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 FM07 gameplay is so much better. There are far too many goals when you manage in a league in 08. EVERY week there are 4-4, 3-3, 4-3, 5-4, just ridiculous and unrealistic scorelines in FM08 (yet it only happens in the league you are managing in; the other leagues you have loaded and aren't active in are realistic enough.) The new players coming through on FM07 are also so much better. The new features brought into the game in FM08 would be excellent if the gameplay and the regens were better. It ruins the game though.

lovingthegreen Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I went to 07 after the second patch and, even though I heard the third (final) patch was really good I just couldn't go back to 08. I was just too annoyed with everything that happened with it. Also, those high scoring games are a big part of what is keeping me from going to 08. I want a realistic game! What I'll probably do is wait until the reviews come out for 09 (both here and elsewhere) and then decide whether or not to buy that version. Otherwise I'll just stick with 07 for a third year.
