Yes, its better than CM0304. Besides, you need to make your own decision on if you like the game or not

Yes, I'm having fun with it. Leeds are a blast to play with; the difficulty of using your resources wisely.

It's faster I'll tell you that. You don't appreciate the improvement so much, but if you actually compare it to CM 03/04, you'll be surprised. And I'm using some other skin for FM, and that apparently helps me play a whole lot easier and changes the gameplay aspect.

Get it.

hehe

I think I might write a story about me managing Leeds. That alone there is saying something. But with a legible skin that is. I cannot stand the default skin; it hurts my eyes.

Easy to read. This is the only skin available so far so anything rather than something that blinds your eyes.

You should buy it(Y) After I reinstalled it it works fine, good game, as you already thought. Why do you ask this actually, you're an expert with this game type

I thought you already got it. Anyhow it's a must buy... All is just so much better then 03/04. But still it's easy to get into the new menus if you've played CM alot.
