Ginger Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Here are the links for Issue 4, as we mentioned there are a few changes - basically we have teamed up with FMFormation to bring you future releases. Please take a look - we hope you enjoy the read. Its a little smaller than usual, we felt that some of the team guides might look a little dated, especially as the 2008/09 season is well under way now and that FM09 is getting its release in a few weeks.

jbrowes Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Terrific! This was the first edition I have read and found it a great read plus being both helpful and informative.

jod123 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 don't mean to sound daft but what is the bootroom thing about and what happens in it. It is a pdf magazine about FM.

Have no idea why this isn't commissioned to be produced as a physical magazine from SIWell done and thanks I loved the original CM magazines, but it was so hard to track down in the newsagents. Most only carried one copy. I assume they have their reasons for not doing them any more. It would be nice to get this up to a fully professional level (for a reasonable salary of course!), but I don't see it happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

playmaker Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Great issue guys really enjoyed it.I just wondered how many hours go in to making this? I would hate to add it all up. To give you an idea, Pele's Prediction took around four hours to research and two to write. The Skin reviews take about an hour each. The in game experiments are probably far in excess of that. View From the Touchline and How to Create Tactics require an hour or two reading threads to verify or flesh out ideas - I like them to be well balanced rather than just rely on one opinion that may be fallible. Even the half page preview of FMH took a couple of hours of sniffing out information and maybe 45 minutes to write. Then there is proof reading, getting screenshots, writing captions doing page layouts and much more besides. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
