161.41 MB for the big PC version :O

International servers down. :(

The small version can still be obtained by international users at the soccergaming downloads center (http://downloads.soccergaming.com/download.php?id=00009381).

Getting Demo and Quickstarts (Y)

Thanks Marc. :Bow:

I'm also getting it! :)

Thank you very much.

18% downloading :D

Are the lower league stats corrected in this demo?

It's the gold version demo, so the quickstarts are based on the final database. The stats should be fixed, yes.

yes btw all the stats are now correct, much to a lot of peoples annoyance.

TROD.

downloaded the "vanilla" (40+mb version) in 3 min and 28 sec (H) (in speeds of 210kb/sec

The Strawberry Demo is just the Vanilla but with more features, right?

Shane Meadows: The Strawbery demo contains additional graphics such as player photos, club kits, club logos, etc.

The international servers at Jolt are back up, btw :) 220 kbps for who's interested :p

Goddamnit my comp restarted halfway through the strawberry download.... screw this, I'm going for the vanilla.

i got the big one. Well... not sure, but it seems a bit better than beta demo. Stats are prety crap still tho. Just huge diffs between some players without any obvious "reason" And small league players are EXTREMELY underrated. It seems the only gr8 players in the world play for 3 italian clubs 2 englsh and 2 spanish clubs :rolleyes: SI decided there is no talented players in the rest of the world capable of playing "top level" football :)

The stats in all football games are crap usually. But i agree fm should get it right.

I found LOADS of cheap talent on the beta demo that were playing great at chelsea - better than the people I started with. I signed atleast 30 players at less that £5m, just to test them out of course, and most were very very good. They better not have changed them on the vanilla.

downloadin!:rockman:

I got it, I just went for the vanilla in the end. Kind of annoying how all the values and stats of lower-league players have changed, making my time spent looking for players on the beta pretty-much wasted, but still, I've found some more decent players.

downloading,very excited to test...played EA's manager before,but it is graphically overloaded and just sucks:P

I just opened the Strawberry version, and mine's in Danish too (or a non-english language). Whoever got there's to English, want to give me a hint? How the hell do you change the game language...

love the gold demo... got the strawberry one, I'm 1W 3L 2D with City :(

damn Sheva and Kaka are too good :D

I took about 1 hour for both the qstarts and the demo itself

Thats about 100mb (Y)
