mstrmind5 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Is it true that there isn't the pre-game editor available for the Epic version of FM20? If so, why is that the case? Thanks for reading (and for FM20 being free on Epic) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SephDarkheart Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 there is, you need to buy it after clicking download from the start screen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrmind5 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) That's the in-game editor, I'm specifically talking about the pre-game editor that's free on the steam version and can be downloaded as an extra from the tools section I believe.

RyanStevenF Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hi guys, so me and my friends have been playing a network save over the past week and everything was working fine. Everyone updated the game today to the newest version with the epic games news and now none of us can join the server or even find it in the server list on Join Online Games. When I try to invite through the friends list it just doesn't work at all even though we are friends on both epic and steam. Anyone know what's up? Thanks.

Tractor_Boy_Rv Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I've been using Steam to play a Network game since release day, is there a way I can continue to do so without having to make an Epic account (I previously had one that was hacked and received poor customer service from Epic in response). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pancone Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) Hello! In this evening came an update that stopped my friend to connect to my online game.

Spudbynight Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think availability of the game editor (not the ingame editor) is important. I have always bought FM on Steam and I want to know if I can avail of the full experience if I buy on Epic in the future? Does FM2020 Touch come with this like it does on Steam? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_e4life Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Pretty cool that the game is available for free on the epic store, but without the pre-game editor it's not much good to me. Any plans to either make it available for this version at some point or for FM21 on the epic store? If not then I'll just keep buying it on Steam. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivs Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 What about mods and editor data files? Can they be imported in the game as usual like we can on the Steam version? Has the absence of pre-game editor been confirmed? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrmind5 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) @Ivs I don't know about the kits and other stuff, but according to the Football Manager twitter account there is no pre-game editor If that's the case, bit of a let down, just curious why it wasn't included.

c28nole Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I've run into some issues with the in-game editor, purchased through Epic. Namely, it doesn't appear. I've reloaded both the game and the launcher several times, but with the "Downloads" section greyed out in-game, I'm not sure how to find the editor. I've contacted Epic support and they said everything is fine on their end and I should take it up with SI. Any ideas? Thanks for the help! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodiak Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I want to make it take up less space on my computer. Please patch so that the Steam version and Epic Store version can be installed in the same folder. The Steam version is now installed in the'Football manager 2020' folder, and the Epic Store version is installed in the'FootballManger2020' folder. In the case of PUBG, even if the platform is different, it can be installed in the same folder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Neil Brock Posted September 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 18, 2020 Pre-Game Editor is not available via Epic. Also the In-Game Editor is not compatible with FM20 on Mac via the Epic Store and should not be available to purchase. We're working with Epic to make this clear via the Store Front. You will be able to request a refund on your purchase by using the 'Contact Us' button found at the bottom of this page - https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-US/epic-games-store-c73 Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

ArsenioLupin0 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Didn't play FM since 2013 version. Plan was to try this 2020 one for free with the Epic Game offer, then buy it in case of positive reception from my self. But without the pre-game editor beeing available its pointless, because big part of my previous entertainement experiences with FM came from the MASSIVE amount of changes and time spend at doing it. Too bad, seems my return on FM won't be for today ^^ Have fun to the others players and cheers to the SI team, may this license last as long football exist. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
