gunner86 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 As we are now around 2 weeks before being around 2 weeks before full release, the glorious time of BETA release speculation is upon us. So grab yourself a comfy chair, a whole load of GIFs, a Gregg’s steak bake (other pastries are available, but inferior), your tin foil hat and a fine tooth comb, and come and join the fun. I’ll make an early bid for October 20th. Ladies and gentlemen… start your engines! 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piperita Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 This is so early I still have the endings of four different links to "Never gonna Give You Up" memorised.

FifaBing Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 lol came to the forum today to see if this thread was active yet. Thought to myself, "No way...it's too early for that."

Lempicka Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) I love this thread more than I love the beta itself.

gggfunk Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 So countdown has started, loving it! I'm thinking about uninstalling FM 22 now as I can't find motivation to continue any save knowing FM 23 is around the corner, especially when I really like the announced features. I don't know how I will stand not playing FM for like 3 weeks, though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how I will stand not playing FM for like 3 weeks, though. I’m about the same. I have a Euros final to play with England but I know if I start another season the beta will (hopefully) be out before I can finish it. Plus an international final feels like a nice bookend for the save. As in terms of what I can do to fill the gap, I have F1 manager and Forza Horizon 5 on the Xbox, so I’ll mess around on those for a while. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KillYourIdols Posted October 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) Right, pay attention Dweebs. I've taken the average of time between each Beta release and full release since FM14. The Average is 16 Days (Well 15.555 Recurring) before full release, which means we should have the Beta on the 23rd October, however this is a sunday and SI have only released on a Sunday once. Previous release days have been: FM14: Wednesday FM15: Thursday FM16: Wednesday FM17: Tuesday FM18: Thursday FM19: Sunday FM20: Thursday FM21: Tuesday FM22: Friday So, In summary, I have wasted an inordinate amount of time for F*ck all. None the wiser. However, using the most popular Day (Thursday) nearest to the average of 16 days, the Beta WILL be released on....
