forameuss Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 There's never more desperation at any time of year than the threads that try and draw any kind of conclusion from thin air. There is no pattern, there will be no warning, and no amount of badgering Miles or SI is going to change when it does drop. It'll be here when it's ready. People need to calm down a bit.

SMV90 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Well, because my laptop is taking forever to reset (wanted it to feel brand new for FM19, even though it’s only a year or so old) I’ll probably never play the beta anyway -.- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QWERTYOP Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I'm just glad they let threads like this run these days tbh. In years gone by, they were REALLY miserable about threads like this and a mod would just post "It's ready when it's ready" and lock the thread. They seem to have realised that fans being excited and speculating because they're excited is actually a good thing. Which is nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, there have been a lot less of the "When is the beta ready" threads this year, they were the ones that got locked very quickly.

Footix Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I don't understand the irresistible urge to play a beta version. Game isn't done. There will be bugs. There will be frustrations.

Honestly they don't seem to launch the beta till things are pretty solid. I haven't noticed the beta being any less enjoyable than the first patch - I'd say the bigger jump in quality is actually with the final major update at the start of March after they've had months to iron out issues.

Stevicus Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Every year I feel like trying to organise some sort of forum silence in mentions of beta release. Figure SI are more likely to drop a beta a bit early if noone is banging on about it and hundreds of threads and tweets being thrown at them from all angles.

To me the beta is the release date.

Tom8983 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 They certainly seem to be firing out the tweets now. Just had another one a few minutes ago saying that when you train a player in a new position, you'll get a notification when he's reach his maximum capacity in that position so you can focus on other aspects of training. I think that's pretty neat. And *puts tin foil hat on* they're clearly rushing out these announcements so the beta can be released early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always try to be a one save a year kinda guy (rarely works out, but that's always the intention) and I'm more often than not away on holiday when the actual release date is (as I am again this year) but around for the beta release. I hope to start my one and only save from the beta release and carry it on when I come home seamlessly after the full game has been rolled out.
