phd_angel Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Hi all - any tips or config specs to make my FM18 run faster? It seems it takes 1 second for the next screen, after I click to run/confirm - either during matches or general inbox. No, my laptop is not slow: Intel i7 2.4GHz, 16GB RAM, 64-bit Great game. Thanks!

The half time team talks (dressing room) are SO Laggy and Slow, Why does the game switch the match to 3D during half time, in order to show the stadium, i watch 2D to avoid 3D. (i love them both) The game should intrdouce a 2D view whilst it is half time, and when the match actually starts, why should we automatically be forced to view a stadium in 3D.

someone21 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Enable Continue Game Timeout. (In preferences section) Haven't played FM18 yet, but enabling timeout in earlier versions, did wonders. Please check yourself if that function exists for FM18. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's extremely important, even more on a laptop.

It's base speed is 1.4ghz and FM requires a minimum of 2.2ghz. Your processor can go up to 2.3ghz - that's why it's running hot. You may as well ask the IT expert if the processor can be upgraded. Not sure if it can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have a sluggish game, so that's not it. There are speed issues with the game. FM17 run lightning fast on my rig, while FM18 crawls along. But it will get a lot better when they get the code optimized. Hopefully by Friday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really afraid this game burn my laptop No, that's borderline burning it. Most Intel's have a heat threshold around 75 degrees C. Over that and the CPU will not work properly and you run the risk of burning it. Weird it doesn't shut down or atleast speedstep down. There are failsafes in the chip supposed to prevent it ever getting that hot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My laptop which worked fine on FM 17 is prp intel (r) core (G) i7 - 4510U CPU@ 2.00 GHZ RAM 8gb 64 BIT Do you think FM 18 be ok..i only ever have about 8 leagues running Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 No - as per your quote of my quote - FM requires 2.2ghz of a processor - your processor is 2.00ghz. It might be ok - but only you can decide if you're happy with the speed of it. If not - you may have to reduce to 6 leagues, or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddymone1983 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Hi guys, was hoping for help in making the game faster. Judging by this and other forums the processor is sufficiently fast. A friend has suggested it could be the graphics card. I run the game in 2d graphics so im not sure what the problem could be. playing with english, spanish and italian leagues activated to league one, serie b and segunda. Would greatly appreciate any ideas/advice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cpu may be an older generation but it’s more than enough for a decent FM experience as is 8GB of RAM, the low WE score suggests there is no dedicated graphics card & with an end to software rendering that is where I’d be liking to upgrade if they want to continue to use the 2D match view.
