SaintPaul Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Hi, can anyone tell me how true to life the classic version on the pc is please? I'm talking of player transfers, ai teams consistency andthe impact of your tactical decisions. I haven't played football manager on a pc since 2010,and while I'm a big fan of the Android version, it can be... unpredictable when it comes to the areas I've mentioned, I'm just wondering so I'll have an idea what the vita game will be like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the elements you mention are in FMC and mirror the level of detail of the "full" game. I ditched the "full" game months ago. Main things that FMC excludes is the vast majority of media interaction, no team talks, limited control over training and no Analysis Tab. AI squad building is as suspect in FMC as it is in the full game too, and as suspect as it has always been, so it's pretty easy to dominate after a few seasons at the top.

kontermann Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 You are a bit egoiste. I have vita only for fm. And i like to play with all graphics parts. Degustibus but if this is possible i'll do it! Do what you want. I was speaking of me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to the release now, part of the reason I didn't get the pc version this season was watching my friend play his, he played full mode and it seemed far too detailed to be enjoyable, it seemed like more of a chore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintPaul Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Does anyone know how much memory will be needed to play? As sad as it seems (and no doubt is) it's the only game I'll be buying for the vita, so I was hoping I won't need to spend too much on a memory card Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferencvaros Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 hey guys, I have a small and probably stupid question: since (as I understand) FMC is identical to the PS Vita version, how good is it? I've always played the normal mode, and the lack of details and the design of the classic mode scared me off. But now I am really curious... is the classic mode the same game only more simple? Is the AI the same? Are the tactics identical? How different are those two modes? Sorry for dumb questions. Does anyone know how much memory will be needed to play? As sad as it seems (and no doubt is) it's the only game I'll be buying for the vita, so I was hoping I won't need to spend too much on a memory card can I ask why? There are a lot of great games for Vita, and some are truly brilliant. You shouldn't limit yourself to only one game, no matter how awesome it is.

shaunwwfc Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Surprised to see no reviews online yet for FM14 Vita Same. I am searching on Google every day. I pre-ordered mine straight away from Shopto. In terms of my Vita which is currently not and never has been nor will be in use until FMC gets on there (ha!) I have a 4GB memory at the moment, I am not sure if that is by memory stick but I know it is in there - am I good to go? Do I need more memory????

HUNT3R Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Maybe there's an embargo on when the sites may publish their reviews? That way the various sites/magazines get time to get used to the feel and new controls rather than just saying "it sucks" after 10 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintPaul Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Should it be easy enough to buy from a shop on 11th, or is pre ordering the best option? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peruytu Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Is anybody upset about how late into the season the game will be released? I'm very upset... but then again, I'm not sure what their development schedule is like. But I feel like they don't take in consideration at the fact that people want to play the game within the current season so it feels more realistic. I know it's the first release for the Vita but for crying out loud, couldn't they take that in consideration when it came to scheduling? Honestly, I don't even know if I'll even buy it. I'm sure the next version will be released a lot earlier as they will simply make the roster updates to the same exact game. So, I may just wait for FM2015. It's a shame it took this long to release. Im playing FM 2014 for PC so I'll be ok for now. I just hope they don't waste time in releasing the FM2015 version; it should only be roster update.

SaintPaul Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I am sure we'll get more details in the coming week, if not today. Just exercise some patience, please. Considering that the game was announced 8 months ago I think it's pretty safe to assume that I'm not the only person who doesn't have much patience left. In this situation, if it's available to buy next Friday they obviously know how much memory we need, I'm not asking for several dozen screen shots, or a list of every player on the database. All through this topic people's questions have been ignored, although si do monitor it, because they've posted several dismissive replies every so often. At the end of the day all we want to do is buy their game,, and ensure we can play it. I'm very grateful that the game will be playable on the vita, but I don't think a quick post telling people which memory card to go for is too much tto ask for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTHerringbone Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm kind of thinking that forking out £180 for a Vita, and then another £25 for the game, is a bit excessive just to play FMC even more If I had a Vita it'd be a no-brainer, but I don't so that additional £180 is hard to justify.

Andyh21 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 17th for bundle and not the 11th? Anyway as said before and now that others have said to get console aswell as game at this time of year really wont be beneficial for me let alone at that money.

You're confusing FMH which was on the PSP with FMC. Since it's FMC, it'll be the same as the PC version, so 14.3. For that, we've had our updates already so you'll be getting the updated game out of the box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only real difference. If we look at the history of FMH (sorry to keep referring to,this, but in my mind this is a relevant point), the game always had many bugs, despite it being developed for carriers that all run on the same hardware. Some of these bugs really took out the pleasure of the game. I'd hate to see that happen to what might become my ultimate favourite game of all eternity. If you know what I mean.
