deltablue Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 You're not the only one. Even when I'm not taking part (which is always), and when there's no deadline day to take part in, the major deadline days take a very long time. I thought the game had stopped working the first time it happened because it was still running so fast otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard boy Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I created my own team and put them in blue square south. Gave them 500k and put rep about the same as one of the teams in that league. Just avoided relegation in first season. Up to 3rd in next one. The average age for my team is 22. My star striker is 16 and he`s got 24 goals so far with about 10 games left. i have a attacking midfielder who is also 16. I am hoping to take the team to the top provided i don`t get sack that is.

DazRTaylor Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Anyone else finding FM13 the hardest ever? Granted, FM12 was too easy, but this version is rock hard.

deltablue Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I often start slowly and have poor patches later, so it's hard to tell but I've been getting that feeling as well.

SnakeXe Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Won the league first season with only a couple of January signings with Newcastle, and also been stuck in the bottom half of the BSN for 5 seasons (but then I am doing a youth-only challenge), so had both ways personally. Tbh if dafuge is finding it tricky, it probably is tricky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
snootyjim Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 It feels like I can hit a good streak or absolutely suck so far, without an apparent reason why. I had a bad spell in charge of Persibo, a pretty poor one at Glebe North, and now I'm back at Persibo and doing a lot better. Frankly not sure what I changed between the managerial spells, even used more or less the same tactic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
noikeee Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I found it bizarrely easy in the transfer market to attract better players as an amateur team. However tactics-wise it's hard and I've had to pay very close attention to detail, and still haven't quite cracked how to make my team perform to its full potential.

I've just completed my first season on a save and like the idea of posting an update thread about how I'm going. If it does, nobody's following it. Everyone posts from the start. Having said that though, it's advisable to make sure you're definitely happy with the save, because quite a few people seem to start career threads and then change their minds, and it's a bit of a pain if people have invested their time and interest in it and then it vanishes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
snootyjim Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 So, has anyone gotten anything from the Steam autumn sale? Still nothing I've wanted. Or at least, nothing I've wanted that's cheap. I fancy AoE3, but £30 for a 7 year old game? Don't make me laugh. If it was £10, i.e. a realistic price, and then they'd reduced the price by 75%, then I might be interested. The thing that hacks me off about Steam sales is that it's always the same titles - a lot of the titles on sale, I've already bought in a previous one. And yet there are games I've got on my wishlist, that have never been on sale, or at least never more than 50% off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnakeXe Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I've still got a backlog from last year's Xmas sale, never mind the summer sale, so I think I'll be resisting for the most part. I might grab Torchlight 2 if it goes to 50% off or better. XCOM and Dishonored were the two recent releases I really wanted and I've already got them.

crouchaldinho Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Like SnakeXe, I'm going to try to resist as much as it is possible to for this sale. I've got an embarrassing backlog of games to play from the last couple of sales! :o GMG are sorely testing me today though. They have Dishonored for the ridiculous price of £14.99, which goes down to £11.25 with the voucher they provide. Game only came out a little while ago! They also have XCOM Enemy Unknown for £22.49 plus you can use a 25% off voucher to bring it down to £16.87. XCOM Enemy Unknown was definitely on my wishlist but I think I'm going to hold off for now while I still have a bunch of games to play through sitting in my library!

crouchaldinho Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 So it's funny because they're saying he's a fat bald man? It made me laugh because it's just silly. They just picked some random guy. It's not even that he's bald or whatever. Just some random guy and I find the reactions in the photograph funny. Also, there are so many rumours about what Etho looks like including that he has amazing golden locks! So it is kind of funny that they just found a random bald dude and pretended that they're being photographed with Etho, who is basically the most private of people and has said that he will never show his face on video. It's probably not funny unless you watch the guys on Mindcrack server and know a bit about them all. I found it funny anyway but maybe Flamers and I are a bit weird. We watch too many Minecraft videos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
