Default 1st impressions of FM09

well,the 3d engine came to give a bit more fun to the game i like it ,,,

press conference pointless,boring, should had an option of turning that off..really annoys me after a couple of matchs

but for god sake the injuries are sureal.....patch need it for that and for a few more things ..why they dont get this right b4 the release of the game,,,

I have to say I only played the Demo, and I couldn't live with that. I went through an eight match span, were every match I had an injury. In the end I had to shut the game down, otherwise I would have run out of players.

Didn't I hear they released a patch for the Demo? (sure I did somewhere).

And maybe NOT, maybe it's something else, like a product being released prematurely? (Just a thought)

I've played 7 months now, and have really enjoyed it, only minor niggles I have are

1) The through balls by the keeper
2) Press conferences are a little boring, ass man does them now.

grandman, you have been very critical of the game, and I never really played the demo.. but have you played the full game, patched?

No, played the Demo and was very disappointed, they hadn't entered the necessary hours of R&D that was evident, When I found errors occuring in the Demo.

Think about it, THE DEMO is used to sell the game, they couldn't even be bothered to get that right.

The on various forums I heard some real horror stories of the game not working, and other errors.

They say it's a successful man that learns from his mistakes, but a wise one that learns from other peoples mistakes, I like to think I'm wise.

My 08 still doesn't work, that's enough for me...

My point is really that it is very rare that a demo is perfect. I'd only use a demo as an idea not a guarantee what a game's final release would be like. And with virtually EVERY game I know on PC or x360 - there is always a patch or fix imminantly.

I can only comment on the full product... It arrived, it installed perfectly, it updated perfectly and runs perfectly. I have seen nothing that makes it unplayable.

Hello, I thought you'd left home Where have you been, are you still running a on line game, if so what game are you using? Not 08 I can't get that to run, keep getting a load of XML errors.

Think I should have a look at the XML Scheme and try to write it correctly, who knows they may pay me for doing the job the didn't do

Other than that how are you doing? How are the doggies, and have you finished your house yet?

Default 1st impressions of FM09

I thought the impressions apart from Culshaws Cowell were really good ... but the scripts were still a bit unfunny. Loved the Michael McIntyre one though ... and as you say ... Davina was to die for Debra Stephenson is so good - I cant understand how someone as talented as that could have been so dreadful in Coronation Street
