In the past, they have had 2 versions, one with and one without. Still a bit dicey though if they’re not on the list.

Yeah, there is 2 versions. I'm gonna hold out for a few weeks and see what prices more reputable sites come out with. To be fair,  for the entertainment to pound ratio, I'll pay full steam price if I have any concerns.

Yeah, that’s what I ended up doing last year after ShopTo lost the Beta

You can still play it on pc if you have a game pass subscription

What warming issue?

I've got an M1 Macbook Air and it does get a bit hot but it's an intense game

Have seen plenty of complaints from people about the heat. I would say every now and again it gets hot, but nothing that makes me worry. Normally its only after a long long session or when I have left it on for day and night to hoilday test a custom db etc. 

Its really the trade off though of having no fan. The way they cool down is to spread the heat within. I don't think a lot of people understand that.

Exactly.  We aren't talking gaming laptops with jet engine fans here.  Any passively cooled system will struggle under intense processor use.

I'm more than happy with the trade off of all day battery life and silence for a bit of heat tbh

i heard that unity is charging the developer 0,20 cent per install starting next year .. is SI still going with unity for the fm25?

I would assume SI are too far down the line to change course from Unity for FM25.  Either way, they've released no statement to address it currently and until they do we'll have no idea what SI's position on it is.

The backlash against Unity has been significant though and this has been an absolute PR disaster for them, so whether Unity persist with this change in pricing remains to be seen.

Given that they’ll already pre pretty far down the development road for FM25, a change away from unity.

Theres already a discussion for that topic here

Bear with me - as I don't know anything about this game pass thing. I've always just played on PC and therefore for the last many years via Steam. But as far as I understand from the release statement - and this is where I might be wrong as it's somewhat greek to me (I don't even understand if the full game on PC/Steam differs from FM24 Mobile/FM24 Console or if it's solely a matter of which platform you're playing on) - but again, as far as I read the release statement I understand that FM24 Touch is ONLY available via Nintendo Twitch (which I know NOTHING of)?

Also, if I'm wrong in the respect that Touch is only on Nintendo and it is indeed released in other ways (eg. via Xbox game pass for PC?) then my question is - how does that work? Do you need an Xbox (I suppose not) and does anyone know how much it is if you only wanna play that one game (the price I see is around EUR 15/month, but have no idea what that includes)? And again - to me this is only relevant if the Touch version would be available that way - otherwise I'd just as well play the full game via Steam (as I unfortunately don't think I will be doing).

Appreciate any help :-)

 

[Bunkerossian]

J-League is in the upcoming game? Well, unless the set piece overhaul is so minor I get angry, I'll buy my first FM since 21. I do hope the set pieces will be player-oriented instead of focusing on the position in a formation- that's the kind of overhaul set pieces have needed.

The console edition of the game is based on Touch and the console edition is playable on PC through Game Pass.

Ok, interesting - beginning to sound like that might actually be worth a shot. Does anyone have any experience with this? Besides the price if only playing that one game which I obviously need to look into, then does anyone knows if the game is set up in a similar way to Steam, ie. where folders are created locally on the PC and you're able to update club/competition names and add pictures and stuff like that. As mentioned, the most important thing to me is players being updated and at the right clubs, which obviously include clubsand competitions having the correct names :-D

At this point J-League still isn’t confirmed. People have (reasonably) made the assumption it’s coming, but the post only mentions being sold in Japan and supporting Japanese.

Not sure what the state of Konami’s exclusivity is.

[HighFlyingDwarf]

Seems like a much better feature set this year and much more progress than FM23. Save game compatibility from one version to another in itself is such a ground breaking change that I think it could stand on its own right. Credit where credit is due to SI.

Would be great if when selecting to see all player names during a match, you could select just your own players. Would love that simple adaption

Without 100% confirmation, I would say so. All the data is saved in the save game file

Yeah, this is my assumption too. Can’t see why it wouldn’t work.

[robot_skeleton]

Is there any info on whether we can transfer saves in which an editor data was used? I phrased that weirdly, but I am sure you know what I mean.

Until the DoF is fixed for opposition, the games not got much longevity. Fair, I play it for 6-7 years, but the AI simply can't create a functional team with such bad transfers

yes I saw this deal too. FM Blog website are offering the same deal through their website through CD Keys and it clearly states it will have early Beta access, even though it does not feature on the 'approved' list of retailers on the announcement post. We definitely could do with some clarification on this as I made the mistake of buying it cheaply through Shopto last year but had to get a refund as it was pulled from the list of retailers offering early access. In the end I bought it from Fanatical.

Sounds like selling and buying players is now going to be via intermediates and agents... with the interaction system already pretty awful and frustrating I hope I'm reading this wrong, rather than just simply offering a player out or enquiring.

When will we learn not everything has to be true to life. When I offer out a player if I really wanted to I can have a narrative in my mind that I wasn't sending a fax....rather than adding more time consuming, prone to break elements into the game.

That area of the game needs a change IMO. Since they brought in the ability to offer players to other clubs, how many times has an AI run club offered you a player?

We’ll find out in a few days how it’s going to work in more detail, but Miles made it sound (to me at least) that this was a different way to operate, and not all transfers would be done in this way.

Not happening anytime soon, laptops will always  run hot playing games unless they are specifically high end gaming laptops. I had one of those a few years back and it ran hot eventually. It’s just how laptops are designed to dissipate heat.

It's getting nearly 100 celcius. That's not normal. It's not running that hot even while running more intense apps. I tried to reduce graphic settings. Even tried low graphics but nothing has changed. I think it's because of retina display's 2x resolution.

Yep! Pretty sure that's what I did for FM23. Just renamed my FM22 folder. Copy/pasting it the time before that took an awful long time due to the sheer size of the file. Just renaming it is pretty much instant though!

That's because you copy and pasted instead of cut and pasted. If you are copying you are making a copy of all the files which will take a long time and is unnecessary as you have duplicate files

8 core GPU M1s run at 70-75 celsius with recommended graphic settings (medium-high). But 7 core GPU M1s (same chipset and CPU, same RAM) run nearly 100 celsius with low settings. That's an obvious optimisation issue. We need a fix.

AI squad-building stuff certainly seems good. For me was defo the number 1 feature I was wanting for 24. Of course how good it actually turns out in practice remains to be seen. 

[andu1]

Finally, it seems the AI squad building and youth player selection has been fixed for FM24. At least that's what the blog is saying.

[Colonel Tigh]

Music to my ears. I love going far into the future but squads being full of 30+ aged players killed the immersion and made it very easy for me to win. 

[Rub Me]

Would love to be able to filter players by their playing history. For example, sometimes I like to bring back former players so I would to "search -> played for -> PSV" for example. Even if it was just in their youth system.

I expected something more finance related
