Hazerbaijan Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I'm quite disappointed. I feel stuck waiting for the game to be updated before I can get into it. It seems like the overall experience was better during the earlier stages of the beta. I guess there's only disappointment because the game has so much potential and does look like it will be much better than previous games. Unfortunately it has stumbled on these issues just before release. I understand the policy of only releasing patches when they're ready rather than to a deadline, but shouldn't the release of the entire game have followed this policy too? Maybe my disappointment is exaggerated by the expectation that I should feel able to start a long term save on the day of release. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the fixes as I can tell from what I've already played in the beta that this is going to be a great game! The only thing I'd like to see that isn't in (and probably can't be classed as a bug) is more realistic attacking headers in the match engine. Currently they're a bit lame, predictable and mostly over the bar. Bullet headers, heading down to goal line, glancing headers into the far corner and headers back across the face of goal would be great to see! Add those and I'll be hooked.

Dagenham_Dave Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I think the transfer issue may not be a problem for people if they have cleared out their cache before starting a new game, perhaps people who don't have a problem can confirm if this is the case When the game went live last night, I cleared the cache and started a brand new save. Perhaps this is why I'm not getting half the issues others have. Can't really explain it any other way. Clearly the vast majority of these people aren't lying, and there's been screenshots, etc, so there must be an underlying reason why some people are getting these bugs and others aren't. Must say I'm chuffed being in the 'others' camp! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPompey Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Not got the game yet because I'm waiting to see if there are any major bugs, since I'm low on cash. That being said, I think people need to stop being so harsh. The transfer bug is the only bug that really shouldn't have gotten through testing, everything else seems like an annoyance that will be patched with a few weeks. As we know from the open beta they have both been introduced late. For those waiting for these to be fixed before starting a career game maybe continue "testing" as finding anything else could perhaps be included in the next patch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigcwwe Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Thought the game had been patched to cut down the amount of goals? 5-0 3-1 7-4 So far. Looking at some of the other scorelines: 12-3 7-1 4-5 5-1 6-1 Just completely ridiculous. How has this not been sorted from the beta to the full release?

Candre168 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 As you said you don't have the game but you are willing to tell people what is wrong with the game and that other things are just an annoyance? I mean really?This is the sort of post that just winds people up. FYI the fullbacks bug is also making the game unplayable and should not have made it through to the full release.

MichaelBrown Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Point accepted but its constructive feedback that is required as opposed to rants, though the poster does make some good observations. Ideally these would also be posted inthe bugs forum with a PKM uploaded. This will help get them investigated and hopefully resolved I agree with exactly what you said and I don't think the usual 'omg i need my money back!!' is relevant either. This should be swiftly dealt with by the mods (as it is) rather than mocked or commented on with the intention of causing arguments that derail the entire thread.

tigerhgrrrrrr Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yeah I hold my hands up over the player ratings, as particularly the full backs at lower levels do rate too low. We are working on a ME update that will address this and one or two other areas in the coming weeks.A lot of the other stuff in terms of the ME is subjective and can depend on user setup, tactics etc. This thread is giving us far more negative feedback ME wise than anywhere else so far, and these forums are a very small sample of FM users these days. Paul the FMC Instant result non-substitutions issue/bug has turned new match plans "bit of polish" into a joke.

Dingusen Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I say next few weeks because I dont want to make promises that cant be kept. That doesnt mean it wont be quicker.

Auqakuh Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 No. Not least because ratings aside the current ME is *better than the previous betas. Except the ratings are breaking morale completely, which imho is a completely game-breaking problem. My team can't play even one match without deteriorating from superb/very good morale down to okay/poor within 60 minutes of play because their ratings are so poor - and that's with a morale-boosting teamtalk taking nearly everyone back to "good" morale from "okay" at half-time. Net result: we play fine for 30 minutes, then by 80 minutes are 3-0 down. That was with a title-challenging team against a relegation-battling team, too, and worse: their ratings did not seem to be as affected as mine did, because they're rubbish and expect to play rubbish, but are encouraged by how rubbish we are, I presume. So essentially the engine is now slanting all games towards the underdogs hugely. I'm not 100% sure this is a new issue, either - it would certainly explain why Stoke finished 3rd in the league in one of my other saves, prior to the most recent (meaningful) update. I was defending the ME prior to this update, incidentally. And no, it isn't my tactics; I'm still using the same basic system I've used for years. Unplayable.

Buzz-Lloydyear Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I have an issue beyond the match engine and low transfer bid issues (which has been made made abundantly by now). The history of all players isn't being recorded. For example, the pre game history shows for players, but any previous seasons played in game are not showing. I have cleared cache and it has done nothing. I can't recall anybody commenting on this and my friend doesn't have the problem, so I don't really know what to do with that. It's incredibly annoying though as I find player history to be of great importance when deciding if a player is worth buying. Posted an image giving an example of what I mean, this is an issue for every player in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajsr1982 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 My analogy would be this: The previous Beta version was like driving a Ford Focus with a few scratches. The release version is like driving a Ferrari, but with four flat tyres. It's a better product, but you can't really use it. Sorry, I don't mean to stick the boot in. I've posted my issues elsewhere, and I appreciate you're trying to fix it, but I can't help feeling disappointed with the current version right now to the point where it's not really enjoyable. I'll carry on tweaking my tactics and hope I can find something passable and look forward to future fixes. The real shame in all of this is that the game really does have huge potential. It's conceptually very good indeed. What irks me a little is that I buy FM every 12 months, but perhaps only get 10-11 months where the game is in a fully functioning state. Again, apologies for the negative post. There are far more good things than bad things about this game, but the bad things are somewhat crippling, so far, in my experience. I appreciate others might not find known issues to be too bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure they know we are disappointed, as I am sure they are also disappointed, we just have to hope that they can get to the bottom of it soon, my Leipzig players are also eager to kick on and dominate European football.

The game seems pretty realistic when playing against the smaller clubs but when you play against the bigger clubs it's just seems too unrealistic as you can tell by the match stats the ball was rarely in their final third. I just lost to psv as well it just seems like the opposition is far superior no matter who they are better at tackling and have more strength, I hope they update the full version I'm not a manager and have no previous footballing experience but I'm pretty sure if I was coaching Real Madrid or Arsenal in real life I would not be losing like this ; ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
