Happy Valentine's Day - FM 8.02 patch & data update available now! **UPDATED 20/2/08**


Recommended Posts

When I fix the Jermain Defoe problem, how do I save over the official 8.0.2 database? I don't see how. If I just save it as a new one, and choose it when I start a new game will it still have all the fixes that are on 8.0.2? Match engine etc.

Ty.

I don't believe there's any way to do that. You need to save it under a different name and it will have everything 8.0.2 has plus any changes you made while in the editor (i.e. Defoe fix).

Just download winrar, google for it if you don't know from where and then extract it. Simple. icon_smile.gif

What´s up with the coding? Players get their stat highered with 2 point in the game. It is 15 in the db, I see 15 in the editor but in the game it becomes 17. Totally unrealistic. If a player gets 15 for passing then he deserves 15 and not 17.

Is that not just to do with the level of training facillities and coaching? If a player moves to a team with a poorer infrastructure their stats quickly drop to reflect that I think. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yeah it's to o with training and the faciities because o my game whenever i sign Mati Fernandez his stats always improve and th same happens with Lucho Gonzales whe he signs for Spurs.

Hi SI,

I am a member of the turkish research team and responsible of the research for Bursaspor. We all waited hopfully for the 8.0.2 and finally it is here. I have tested it all day long and I am as many others very disappointed. As you can see there are many topics already about issues that still is in the game, but also about new problems. It was the same case for 8.0.1 and also the game this year seemed to be at a very low level when it was released. Why are you in a rush to release these patches? We, FM gamers, are more than willing to wait a much longer time for the patches so you guys have the time to make them as optimized as possible. Again 8.0.2 seemse to be rushed and it´s feels like you guys didn´t give all your heart to this oatch and game.

We see you as number 1 of this sort of games and doesn´t want to criticize you. But so many problems shows that you are not doing a job that is worthy SI, as we know. What would you lose if you had tested 8.0.2 for another week or so? Nothing I think. But know there are just disappointed. These issues and problems make us FM lovers to lose our faith to the game and you. Please take mine and other gamers words with you and get the old good SI back.

I also want to say a few word about the research of some specifik players that you â€can´t†get wrong. Elano is better than Kaka? How is this possible? And now I see some problem in the player stats. They dropp dramaticly in a very shot time. What is that about? If you tested the patch good enough you would see this things easy. How can you miss that Portsmouth lose around 50 millions in only a year? It is a PL team we are talking about so every one should easily see this problem when testing.

There are some much to write but I think you got my view of the wohle thing.

Regards

Turkish research team member and Bursaspor researcher.

Totally agree icon14.gif

You'll need a torrent client like BitTorrent.

There's been a few posts in General Discussion indicating that they don't have a clue on how to install the patch, even with the instructions given. Some have limited knowledge of computers, nver mind the difference between a mirror and a torrent.

Might I suggest in the future an 'Installing the Patch for Computer Novices' thread including step by step screenshots of every basic step.
