It's the best Football Manager yet. Very quick at processing games now , lovely interface and the games are far more varied. This will be the best Football Manage sim ever.

EDIT - dont implicate yourself.

Tom

no it isnt tracertong, YOU were breaking the law yesterday :)

so yes, we heard it from you first, maybe i should pass your name onto SI, so they can "investigate" where you got it from. I'm sure that'd be fun.

If you have ever played Splinter Cell , that was me. Bascially I parachuted from a helicopter onto the roof of Sports Interactive HQ , then bungie droped into their main office , avoided the lazer trip mines and sharks with lasers to get the demo for you to close my thread.

As you can imagine I was pissed off to say the least.....

only to be foiled by a moderator of an online-forum, devastating.

...or maybe you can be happy that he just closed your thread.

Just noticed you had added extra links Tom (Y) Thanks a lot, now its going good.

Bless he doesn't know what happened yesterday. Downloading a demo from play.com ? thats gonna get me twenty years in jail I would say.....

Would make the world a better place if that somehow did happen.

i know exactly what happened yesterday darling, and SOMEHOW, i doubt SI are exactly pleased about that, infact, i know they aint pleased about it. So having little people like you distributing said link across the internet, is hardely likely to make them look apon SG nicely is it.

And yes, Neil and Marc do come on SG regularly.

Tom
01-10-2006, 12:14:AM
oh, and in further response to yesterdays leaked version:

IF YOU DOWNLOADED THE ILLEGALLY LEAKED VERSION OF THE DEMO, PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU DELETE IT FULLY AND INSTALL THE PROPER ONE. THE ONE YESTERDAY WILL CAUSE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE FULL GAME UNLESS FULLY DELETED FROM YOUR SYSTEM DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTALLER SYSTEM WITH THAT VERSION. WE WILL NOT BE OFFERING ANY TECHNICALLY SUPPORT ON THE LEAKED DEMO AS WE TOLD EVERYONE NOT TO DOWNLOAD IT.

but then, that goes without saying i guess, just incase any of you (apart from tracertong) decided to spend time downloading it.

Tom
01-10-2006, 12:20:AM
ah ok Tracer, if we're gonna get silly with joke abuse towards mods, then i cant even be bothered to argue with you. The links are at the top of the page, and as ive said before, the download yesterday may fack up your game when you get the full thing, or, it might not.

Either way, the ones at the top are the legit copies.

Tracertong, either it got closed, or we wouldn't be able to continue our friendly standing with SI. This is not about you, it's about the FM subforum on SG. Stop being angry about Tom closing it, he just saw the bigger implication where you didn't.

Is it normal there is no sound included with the strawberry demo?

tracertong
01-10-2006, 03:27:AM

Yes - they never have sound on the demo for some reason.

Rocky
01-10-2006, 03:40:AM
For some reason I always remember there being sound on the demos. (6)

tracertong
01-10-2006, 03:41:AM

No sound on the last 2 demos. No sound on this demo. Dont panic mr mannering.

01-10-2006, 03:55:AM
Meh, disabling the sounds is the first thing I do when starting a new version of The Game.

adj137
01-10-2006, 10:26:AM
Yeah do they ever update the sounds, i wouldnt know as i disable it cause i like to listen to the Kinks when i play FM.

yep, neither Strawberries come with sound, for some inane reason. But then, i doubt it really matters too much.

Put a few more mirrors up for people still having problems.

I've played 4 or 5 matches now, and the game is really good. Some nice improvements from the previous versions. Can't wait to the full version. :p


But I got one question though: Is it possible to add graphics in the demo? I've tried adding the Rosenborg logo, but without success.

Tom
01-10-2006, 01:13:PM
try turning skin cache off, might work, might not.

Can we play full seasons if we download the strawberry version? I'm downloading it right now.

Tom
01-10-2006, 05:43:PM
i believe it's still 6 months, usually is.

Pizarro14
01-10-2006, 05:47:PM
I never played the demo versions before. So after 6 months it restarts? :(

Zlatan
01-10-2006, 05:52:PM
No you can't continue the game after 6 months. Ofcourse you can't play full seasons because there would be no point in buying the game than.

your right :( heh. I just thought the full version was when u want to play online. I hope its worth the download.

Dreath
01-10-2006, 06:50:PM
I'm not gonna bother with the demo. 6 months isn't enough for me. I like building legacies.

I have recently downloaded and install the new Strawberry demo verison of FM 2007 and had already started playing the new season but I just can't get any match fixture going and the clock seem not to be moving! Can anyone tell me how to move the time forward so I can finally play a match? :boohoo:
