I’m a lapsed long term player of CM/FM and picked up FM24 mobile after seeing it on Netflix.
I’ve been playing it on an iPad but found it a little frustrating tbh, sorry;
- scrolling is a little painful on player lists, it’s hard to stop it where you want as it often sails right past.
- team selection is laborious. I’m used to clicking a slot and a player which was nice and simple. Here it just takes too long and becomes a chore.
- I don’t really feel as if my tactics had much impact on games. Maybe they were bad tactics 😁 It just felt a little random as to what happened.
- the core metric for me has always been player ratings, including average rating over the seasons. This latter one seems a little buried when you’re trying to assess a new player for purchase.
For me, I think a football management sim on mobile or tablet has to be quite simple to be fun to play. Anything with depth requires a PC, a mouse and a keyboard.
I tried to get into FM24 mobile but I just got a little bit bored though I’m probably not the target demographic anymore 😬
Hi Marc. Thanks for taking the time to reply, really appreciate the fact that you responded - I can’t think there are many who would be as publicly engaged as that I’m a bit of an old duffer who still plays CM01/02 occasionally and that probably reflects in my taste for a simple experience - I just don’t have much time to dedicate to gaming. Good luck with the tweaks anyway.
