After almost 4or5 weeks i play this game... here is my opinion on FM06

-Transfer system is one of the worst.... sometimes...the price is very unrealistic... how come a player that's rated by 8 millions euro but you can only bid it for 25 million euros?... :nape:

-My offensive player always get tired..and sometimes i can only put my reserve squad..f**k .

-'Impossible to loan' ? i'm not sure about this.... i already tried to sign the player that was set as loan listed...but still... :nape:

...& it's boring ..

...phew... maybe i shud go back to FM 2005.

- a player that the club doesn't want to give up will always cost more than their percieved "transfer value".... either go for players other clubs don't particularly want (you can buy some transfer listed players for less then half of their value) or be prepared to overpay.
- players get fatigued IRL too... particularly when teams participate in long league seasons and several continental and club competitions
- its not impossible to loan, i dont particularly use it though
- you are missing part of your brain if you think its boring


that is all :ewan: ;)

carlos tevez who is rated around 10 million euros during the start of the game is a bargain at 25. :rolleyes:

Perhaps CM might interest you then. :jambo:

Transfer is unrealistic in the other way really. I got many star players for Ajax without spending that much.

Offensive players getting tired is not the game but the way you play the game, tactics and training etc.

I, sadly, agree with you. I think that FM05 is way better than FM06. So right now I'm playing FM05, and maybe, when i get tired of that, i try FM06 again!...:S

1. yup. i do agree sometimes it is quite unrealistic but how about leo messi for 5m?

2. work on your trainning

3. may be your reputation is sh!t, so the club just reject you

4. may be you keep losing, so you feel boring?

i am doing a ****e job at Watford and it is hard to get players from higher leagues (even MLS players snubbed me!(H)) but if i turn it around which i am i have made some handy signings :)

it is a fun game :)

it is the same thing that i can't sign some big name player in the first season even i'm using man utd but thing changed after a season, player start whinging when i bid for them and their club disallow the move (H)

lol but u are man-u it should not be like that for you guys. One thing that is hard for me is to woo over some pretty good south american talent that i can afford. Not easy to do :(

Its just harder than Fm05. The Glorious (burden) Hunter (H) :ewan:

Just because someone has 8 million for value it doesn't mean your going to get him for that price. I have seen players go for double their value or half of their value, it all depends on what his current club want.

Btw I modified the database and gave Chelsea over 100 million budget, I put all that in a bid for Ronaldinho and they said no, fact is they don't want to sell that player so whether or not your bid is for half his value, double it or 5x it, they won't sell.

Chelsea has more than 100m without editing the db I think :confused:?

Nah they have like 80, I spent hours trying to get it to work, although I gave them about 300 million in the editor, I loaded the game up and they had 25 o_O

Ronaldinho always since FM05 in every single game i start ends up being a backup player after 3-4 seasons max. Even b4 he gets 30

Why must you complain so much? :|

Post this in the SI forums and you're sure to get a more hostile response you glory hunter

In response to the last question, I hope you didn't mistakenly see transfer for loan or that would probably answer your question :|

Yea Bleach, I looked at their squad after a CL game and he wasn't even on the bench, shocking really.

Im at the start of my 2012 season :( :$ :jambo: and im still having lots of fun. I acutally find it rather easy to sign players now. The first couple of seasons its hard but after a while it isnt too bad. I signed lots of great players for free. Just keep on the lookout for when players want to leave their clubs or they are transfer listed or some crazy **** happens to them.

Offensive players being tired is your traning problem not the games problem.

Loans are very possible. I loaned players in to my club in the second season and it worked fine.

Game is boring..im in 2012 so i disagree.

2012 wtf? I have played the game for like 24 hours and I am 8 games into my second season.

I know, I can never get passed the first 2-3 seasons in less than a month or so. Not because its boring, but I'm never focused into it, I always have the tele on or am on some other site. The farthest I've gotten was 2015 with West Ham in FM05.

The longest I got was 2007 with Roma in CM 03/04. Because I had a crappy PC back than and for me it always gets boring after a few years. Do want to try such a long game once though, just can't seem to hold on to the game for that long.

Who the **** are the bums attacking that Malaysian dude for being a glory hunter, who gives a ****, are you the bloody supporter police? He can do whatever he wants.

He is making points about FM, and otherwise than suggest answers, he is just being flamed.

But then again, he is a dirty glory hunter :rolleyes: the scourge of the most important place on earth, the internet. :rolleyes:

i cant get into the new fm at all :(

@ngyc:
2: erm...maybe i can agree with u coz i notice dat i set my players training schedule to heavy

@fernandez: no.. i already checked it twice...erm maybe the player 'knows' that if they transfer in to my club... maybe they cant get more first team oppurtunity

BTW: i'm playing with everton in the second season...first season i managed to qualify to CL and the second season I manage to progress until quarter final... I don't think my club 'reputation' is bad.. :hump:

Are you guys finding FM2006 a whole lot easier than FM2005?
FM06 is almost too easy...it's so unrealistic I can't bring myself to play it again after one season..

@ngyc:
2: erm...maybe i can agree with u coz i notice dat i set my players training schedule to heavy

make it to medium. if you found the fixture are too busy. rest your player after the match for 1 or 2 days, you decide. that will help

@garlei... i've no problem with that...
@ngyc... yup it's work... :hump:

BTW: still dunno how the hell on earth i can loan charlez nzogbia in my team. he is listed as 'loan' in my third season of this game...stupid newcastle :p

i cant get into the new fm at all :(

im one step ahead; i didnt buy it :D

im one step ahead; i didnt buy it :D

To make it worse your one of the mods aswell :p :borat: :crazyboy:

excuse me Mr Socrates but i explained my situation in the Alex thread when i announced he was mod, so there :D

To be fair im working 7 days a week so id have no time anyway. By the way joking aside im not visiting the forums as much but Alex is a great mod, and if you are worried about anything in the forum such as "you're doing a terrible job" or "nick is bullying me" then feel free to PM me.

Was meant just as a joke mate, dont take the forums that seriosuly :)

I am currently very free ony have school 2 days a week and i cant work because of an indoor soccer injury ( tore my ACL, MCL and other crap...yea my right knee is ****ed up :kader: ). Also i agree Alex is doing great :jambo:

Ronaldinho always since FM05 in every single game i start ends up being a backup player after 3-4 seasons max. Even b4 he gets 30
ronaldinho wasn't very good in fm05 since he can't play on the wings effectively. his stats are great if his position was a winger but sadly it wasn't the case.

now that fm06 has given him the AM LC positions i think he will last more than 4 seasons.

Actually he dosnt Barca always gets another player who isnt as good as him and they put his ass on the subs after 2 seasons in my game.

Also i have noticed that after 5 season most of the good players are Brazilians.

(H)

God my spelling is horrible :$ :(

The real problem Ihave with the game is the cheating. Henry has 16 finishing and and 18 compsure... and pace... for crying out load. It's ******* ridiculus.

oi! :( I am kind and welcoming

Anyway fella who made this thread. Why dont you do your usual trick of showing no loyatly and moving onto something better? :jap:

I didnt get into FM 2006 nor 2005 aswell. Not that it's a bad game, but the series (lately) is more directed to dedicated players who have a decent amount of time on their hands to make a good tactic/training schedule/etc. rather than the occasional player (a.k.a. me).

My all time favorite is CM 03/04.

Yeah for me aswell, although I've only played 3 versions yet, but I had the most fun with CM 03/04 with various clubs.

really??
i'm finding with FM06 that the tactics i throw togeather in a few minutes and training sessions i spend 15 minutes making do a fine job.


but then maybe its just me :jambo:

nah, same here. I find the training and tacting making much faster in fm06

Anyone else find it brilliant that you draw with a poor team at home and rape a tough team away? I hate when I get a cup game at home, because the chances of me winning are very slim, infact out of my last 2 cup games at home I have drew both. I have the best away form and something like 7th best home form, although I am top with 1 loss and something like 4 draws out of 24 games, but I bet every draw/loss has been at home.

My all time favorite is CM 03/04.

CM 03/04 is a classic. I liked FM 2005 but the 2006 lacks consistency. You can go on a run if your lucky then all of a sudden lose 5-1 to a rival. Its ridiculous. I hire the best coaches improve my training facilities. Do everything well. I know i do not suck because i have dominated in FM 2005 and CM 03/04. In CM 03/04 i won over 12 trophies in about 8 seasons with Man Utd. I dominated the league for 8 seasons. In FM 2005 i used Real Madrid and won everything possible in 3 seasons! So my tactics must have been working someway along the line. This latest game is terrible. If you cant get results using similar methods then it doenst do for me. I'm not a fan of 4-5-1 but i've used those and i still concede many goals. I cant really be bothered with this game anymore. I've restarted so many times with different teams and different leagues but it doesnt do for me. You encourage the players but they still give rubbish performances. Not good enough. This game doesnt live up to the previous version for me. I'll go back to 2005 then.

Meh, it's more because in earlier versions it was easy with big guns like Real and ManU. In this new version it is more difficult which in itself is an improvement I think. I mean winning the quadruple anytime is not realistic, not talking about the fact that it gets boring(atleast to me) too.
I actually think FM 2006 is better than FM 2005 after playing it for 2 months now. It requires a much better manager and I find myself making complified tactics and I'm extremely proud when it works. I'm more addicted to FM 2006 than I was to FM 2005. Although I agree nothing beats CM 03/04(for now atleast)

Tsigalko!

What I don't like about FM06 is that they completely fcuked up the half time talks. The effects are so brainlessly stupid it's not even worth using anymore. When you say you're satisfied then your team is sure to concede 3 or 4 goals in the 2nd half. And when you question their passion or wtv there's no change at all basically. What's the point of doing a halftime talk if there are no positive effects whatsoever?

read the article on susie. it does wonders.

wonders? It says absolutely nothing. At least to me...

For team talks i just got a assistant manager with very high motavation and man management and let him be the guy that does the talking, it works perfectly for me. :)

I notice that when you say your dissappointed(or even angry) the lads starting upping their game in the second half. And when I say I'm thrilled after a stunning first half, most of my players starting playing worser then they did and sometimes the opponent came back from behind.

I don't mind the team talks at all, I enjoy them. I think WWSM06 (hey I'm American) is a better product than 05, but I wouldn't have splurged for it if I had bought the 05 version. I'll probably buy it once every two years. Currently in the 2009 season with Puebla.

someone who says that fm 2005 is better than fm 2006 is an idiot....they are probably angry because it is not so easy any more win tropheys!

If they say, for a game, it takes up too much time to be succesful in, so it's not as fun, they're right. This isn't "a game", it's a passion, a lifestyle. Well, probably overdoing it a bit, but if you just don't have the time to play it like one should, it's not as good as you would think.

i fully agree :jap: :jap:

second that....FM is how we live:jap:

this is why with every version since CM4 i havent started more than 2-3 games with each version. Tho this game is amazing how stupid it can get with the half time talks

hey Alex, check out the stats of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.


Told ya I didn't edit anything. :jambo:

doesnt mean he's not way overrated. He's not maradona. nor ronaldinho. Doesnt come even close.

Zlatan is incredibly overrated, he's good, but not THAT good...

yeah, like i said, he's not maradona (not even he wud get such stats)

Just because someone has 8 million for value it doesn't mean your going to get him for that price. I have seen players go for double their value or half of their value, it all depends on what his current club want.
This is indeed the case as it is irl, if a player is important to a team then they'll generally want much more for him than his 'neutral' (ie. displayed) valuation ... if he's unsettled or unrequired then you might get him for less.

When considering a player try and think of the circumstances and bid appropriately, also look for players in their last year of contract - its at that point where you can sometimes negotiate aggressively because the club will be aware they might lose the player on a free at the end of his contract.

Btw I modified the database and gave Chelsea over 100 million budget, I put all that in a bid for Ronaldinho and they said no, fact is they don't want to sell that player so whether or not your bid is for half his value, double it or 5x it, they won't sell.
Some clubs simply DONT need to sell a player, especially the larger ones - as such it will take a farcically high bid to acquire a key player from those clubs.

If this wasn't the case irl then I'd expect Chelsea would contain a lot more of the Barcelona and Real Madrid squads ;)

Incidentally Chelsea have a 'SUGAR_DADDY' flag set in the game config file which means they'll get regular cash injections and a very lenient wage budget (again as irl).

If you're finding this side of the game hard you can set this up for any club in the game by editing that file (its a simple text file) - just two proviso's, (1) it has to be done before a game is started (ie. it won't change an existing game), (2) don't come here and boast about your performance if you've done this ;)

Hope this helps,

Marc

A lot of this side of things is dependant on player personalities and morale ... if you don't know your squad well then I'd suggest erring on the side of safety (I document some fairly 'safe' teamtalk options in my hints and tips guide).

Examples of this:
"Doing Well" - if this is a professional player then it'll make him happy obviously without any detrimental effect, however if its an unprofessional player with high morale already (or even worse one who's playing badly) then he might get cocky and relax leading to problems ...

PS> We'll be looking to improve feedback on the effects of this sort of thing in next years game.

Oh yeah. What do you think about the difficulty of your game?

And also if you start with a low team will they have to stay in that same stadium if a new one is not planned? Can you imagine a team like Barnet Staying in a 10,000 seater to play Champions League football one day? Or being top of the league and only 10,000 fans can watch becuase the expansion capacity is 10,000. I am aware that some stadiums in the game cannot be expanded beyond the current limit. Like Old Trafford (100,000).

And one last thing people tend to complain about conceding goals. No matter how good your defence and keeper are you will always concede unecessary goals.
