jeldokic Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Hi I was thinking, yes it does hurt, that with the announcement of in game advertising and the hoardings around the pitch etc that maybe some fun but serious messages could be included to come up at certain / appropriate times. Things like :- Don't forget to say hello to your wife / girlfriend / partner / family / pets Remember to go to have some breakfast / lunch / dinner Did you wash today Just some fun things like that but maybe they have a serious side too because alot of people get so involved in FM that these things can be forgotten. I know you get the messages on the status page but I know I for one ever only see this when I first start the game each session but to have reminders pop up whilst actually playing might be useful. I know this is maybe just a silly / crazy / unimportant idea but hey ... some of the most crazy ideas in the world have proved to be the most brilliant... after all.. who would have thought 22 grown men kicking a lump of leather around for 90 minutes would take off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomis07 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 who would have thought 22 grown men kicking a lump of leather around for 90 minutes would take off Me, that's why I invented football! Anyways, it's a nice idea, but if someone is silly enough to play a game 24/7 I don't think message on the billboards will make much of a difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHARLIERODD Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Would be a witty comment but maybe not the right place for it. Maybe a news item from your assistant after 10 hours of constant gaming saying the players are concerned about you... or something like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHARLIERODD Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 If you forget to do these, then you shouldn't really be allowed to buy FM09 Haha... good point.

Now that's not a bad idea and I think its worthy of serious consideration. After all we pay our Asst Mans a good salary! And, it would make a fresh change for him to offfer personal advice/comments.

TMLS Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I think it's a great idea - could put something on the save game details screen, and base it on how long you've had FM open for in total. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJdeMarco Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Whilst I could see the amusement value, I think it would wear off pretty quick if used too often. I certainly think that important messages such as "Say no to racism" etc popping up would be no bad thing though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne\'o Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 if the game had sponsors, ie end of a term, club X gets a new kit sponsor on a 3 yeard deal, the sponsors are Joe Bloggs sports weare or somthing, then the advertising boards could have that included.. Id also like to see gilletterazor blades advertised so i dont forget to shave when im playing Fm for a 4 days stint with no rest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomis07 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 The only reason this has been included is to subliminal message us into accepting 3D, no matter how pants it is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
senorcoo Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 The only reason this has been included is to subliminal message us into accepting 3D, no matter how pants it is Totally unrelated - I live in America and I just have to say that I love when I see one of you UK lads say that something is "pants".

BrianQuinn Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 This isnt really anything to do with this but does anybody know if the advertising boards will be like the ones at big stadiums like the emirates , san siro etc when the messages move right round the stadium ?

Serdar Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I better see some changes/improvents there over time depending on the state of my pitch and the amouth of deals I have with sponsors. Adding there humour will make us smile once but assuming you play the game for many hours it will eventually start to look silly and wont serve any purpose.

pnefc22 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 It could be fun but it would were off and I would prefer to have my sponsers name on the billboards. I do agree with the assistent warning though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
