First time to buy Football Manager (Please help me)


Recommended Posts

I am a console player, playstation to be exact. I always buy fifa because I love football. But this year, I would like to try football manager.

Can someone please explain to me how to buy fm 2015? I am planning to buy on simplycdkeys. Once I purchase the game, how can I download? When to download?

I would go with buy from Steam, If your a newbie to FM then it might be a bit daunting but never fear come to this Forum and the SI Interactive Forums band of merry managers will always help you with your questions and queries If you are going the Steam route then this site might help if you are still unsure oh and Welcome to the FM Community.

First timer? You're doomed!

(just kidding.... well, not really.....) :D

Haha! I'm trying to introduce my friend to FM, I've basically said we're going to need a whole day so I can explain every part of the game to him. If he still likes it after spending a whole day with me that'll be a good start :p

I'm sorry but what hassle? All you need to do is to enter the serial you get (if not buying from Steam). That hassle saved me 22 euros :D

You obviously "missed" all the people who didn't get keys from firms like Argos and spent days getting it sorted.

I did... Never had problems myself, though. I've bought games from several different sites to get the best offer. Never had any problems (knock on wood). I do check sites like trustpilot before buying from a new site.

The only places I would ever buy FM from are the following:

Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/295270/

Costs a little more that some others, but you won't have any issues, well you shouldn't.

Green Man Gaming: http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/gb/en/pc/games/sports/football-manager-2015/

Although the price is the same as Steam, there is usually a discount code for the site which can bring the price down quite a bit. I used them twice, both times I got the beta 2 weeks in advance. No issues with these guys.

GAME: http://www.game.co.uk/en/football-manager-2015-with-early-beta-access-304984

I'm from UK so thought I'd throw them in there. Also seems they have money off atm. Can get digital (so Steam key) or boxed copy.

Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Football-Manager-2015-PC-Mac/dp/B00MN270HE

Again can get boxed or digital copy. They also offered the beta (bit late for that now really). If you have an Amazon gift card then they are always an option.

Football Manager Website: http://www.footballmanager.com

Click pre-order. Won't find any discounts here, but it's direct from them, so issue free.

Gamersgate: http://www.gamersgate.co.uk/DD-FM2015/football-manager-2015

I've not used them for FM before. Buy if you use the site constantly you can get money back to then spend on more games. So if you use it a lot you can build a discount for other games (I do believe that is how it works anyway)

Other than that I wouldn't buy anywhere else. These CD key seller sites, while will usually work, I just don't trust them. And the saving between them and an official seller is sometimes only a few pounds, if any save at all, based on some of the rewards you can get via the above mentioned sites plus their discount codes.

Also I would not have advised Argos before the issues had even arrived. I mean why are you buying it from Argos anyway?

Welcome to FM hulk. You're going to tear your hair out, you're going to get upset, you might break a thing or ten along the way, you're likely to prowl the forum and still be pretty clueless about tactics etc, same as those who've been playing for a decade or more. But you might also play this one pretty much for months on end...have fun or something...

@19MiRkO91 how does it work when you buy from CDkey. So they email you the key, then what to do you do?

Would greatly appreciate if you could explain the entire process, how you download from Steam, Put In Key etc

Thanks in advance

then, go to steam, create an account, click on entre a product key, enter your product key, (look at the bottom left corner for: "+ Add a Game..." From there go to "Activate a Product on Steam" and follow the instructions) and steam will recognize wich game you've bought and start downloading...

For hulk7, which buy FM for first time... Prepare to have no more life, have a think ans send a message to your borthers, sisters, parents, friends or girlfriend that you're not dead, all right, and that everything is OK ;-)
