I think it's crap, nothing has changed, the 3d games are not real at all, i saw a goal when the player was at least 20m offside, the latest transfers are not made and 20% of the others aren't made neither, and there are some stupid things like zetterberg playing for belgium !

hmmm........sounds like the sort of game FM 2001 is. Oh well, I'm interested in seeing what Sky Sports Football Manager will be like.

After the mess that was called FAPLM 2001, one would suspect that they would at least check the game for obvious bugs such as a swedish international playing for Belgium. There is another cute bug as well...no, it's not cute, it's annoying like hell --> when scoring a goal,sometimes the goal net stretches out to follow the ball, all the way OUT OF THE F**KING STADIUM !!!!!!

BUGS?


You ask for bugs?


Well, here's a list that will never fixed:?

- No youth team second season? What use is the school of excellence then?
- 2-3 yellow cards every match even if I play without any aggression and with contain...and good tacklers (this happens in conf-div3..I haven't tried premier league)
- Staff support list is AWFUL..It should be updated every month or so with new staff to hire...and better ones!
- In 3D Matches...there is no way to get the formation screen? If to defenders are sent off or injured I have to play the game with only 2 defenders?
- In 3D again...an attacker with speed 22 can never outrun a defender with speed 10? Ridiculous.
- Matchratings and goalscoring lists are FAKE. One guy in my team kicked like 30 goals one season, but was only credited for 8..the missing goals went to other members of the team...and matchrating...a player that kicks 5 goals in a game gets the rating 6? Bah.
- Offsides!!!
- Irritating freekick movie in 3D...I wish I could turn that off....forever!

I agree with haha here...I still dislike some of the bugs...like the youth team crap....I want to find a jewel in my youth squad...or at leats descent players that can gather some money...but as it is school of excellence is just a waste of money and time...those friggin talent scouts would rather mention threir moms than giving you the name of a good player :(

But anyhow, the game grows on you and I can't stop playing it...and IF the bugs where fixed I think it would match CM in every aspect...and more...with the 3d game!
