Blanco Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Back to the FM14 discussion, I for one am absolutely loving it... To be fair, it's the first I've really played properly since 09 (the first one with 3D), and I find it so much more intuitive sans sliders. The press conferences are infinitely better, the 3D is streets ahead of where it was (albeit with a few niggles that remain), and it doesn't take me months to play a season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fond Foat Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I find that FM14 seems to get better the longer I play it. The first few weeks can seem a little extreme, but I put that down to an overpowering of the tactical fluidity knowledge of your squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, tactical unfamiliarity apparently turns players into apes having to deal with their first encounter with a round object. On the flipside it seems easier to quickly gain familiarity by focusing training on tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRL88 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Just a little thought. But would it be worth having the little career updates thread stickied? I think it could increase the number of posters in this forum and then lead to more chat. As it stands some people don't want to create a proper thread but like to give little updates ala GPTG threads. Now obviously the little updates thread often disappears. Would it be worth creating a new one and stickying it or just stickying the old one. Sounds like a good idea to me. Sounds like a decent idea as it often gets lost when it isn't used for a while.We could also do with removing a few of the current stickies, like the ideas and the competitions ones. SRL, do your job . But in all seriousness if you could do it, it would be muchly appreciated. Someone bump it and I will sticky it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crispypaul Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I can't seem to get into FM14 at all at the moment. I think its because I can't really do my original idea without editing the database which I'm not particulary comfortable with. I'm thinking of three options really: - A youth only challenge with my hometown team in the Skrill South - Another journeyman career - A one club save with a club from a small European league - NI, Wales or Iceland.

Any thoughts? Something unusual always goes down well. Seems there's always a flavour of the month version of a career that everyone does, and often threads can turn into just the same stuff, depending on the writers personal flair of course. The best ones are often either the more interesting base ideas, or the ones that evolve as they move, often sprinkled with plenty of failure. That's only in my opinion of course - success is great, but I always get a bit bored of the careers where it's just relentless winning. A bit of failure always makes the success later on much better. So yeah. failure is the way to go.

noikeee Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 You don't have the time for a thread Snake? After a bit of an hiatus from this forum, and a bit of experimenting with FM14 after the patch, I now feel that I'm ready to embark on this years compulsory journeyman. How's lower league transfers after the patch, they make sense now? And managerial movements from club to club, nation to nation?

SnakeXe Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Unfortunately I don't - I can barely find time to play the game let alone do a bunch of screenshotting and type up an update about it the perils of having a career rather than dossing about as a student...

rancer890 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 My school marks have actually gone up after not playing FM, surprise surprise. I still play Steam games sometimes but I play without stress or after I'm done uni coursework or studying for the day. The games I play now I can be chill and just have fun. FM felt like a second (unpaid) job in '13 with playing it and then updating it (and updating usually took longer than playing). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

g00n Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I don't know if this is the right place for a shameless plug (or if there even is a right place, if not I apologise) - I was inspired by the concept of mini-blogging about your save game on Twitter, especially after seeing TacticalGenius' Twitter profile about his forays with Enfield, and I thought I'd start my own. I'm currently doing a 'European Tour' challenge (Football Manager 13 Classic, mind), where the objective is to win all domestic trophies in Europe, alphabetically one country at a time. I'm pretty terrible at FM though, so I've only just won trophy number 7 and I'm in 2064! Is anyone else doing Twitter updates on their careers? I'd love to follow and read more, but I haven't been able to find that many using the Twitter search - most of the accounts I found hadn't tweeted in a couple of years...
