Mine does it, and i have 16gb and i7 also You can do it but the speed it hardly at a 'quick pace', even with a high end i7. The 16GB of RAM is also irrelevent with 2016 and before as the game can only utilise a maximum of 4GB (well less than 4GB) anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DP Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Surprised more people haven't been talking about the increased calculations per second the player in the ME can make. Surely that has potential for a very different ME experience - animations aside. I'm very interested to see how a match in FM17 can play out differently to one in 16 due to the players being 'smarter'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very interested to see how a match in FM17 can play out differently to one in 16 due to the players being 'smarter'. This is an interesting one for me. FM16 I believe was 8 per second, has 17 gone up to 16 per second. If so can players & should they be making that many per second. Its great from a technical perspective but from a reality one? Compare that to something like athletics where a false start is deemed to be anything under 0.1 seconds which would be 10 per second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for saying something wrong ; the only reason I said so is because a couple years back I tweeted Miles after saying that he doesn't know exactly when the beta is ready and asked if he's just waiting for an ok from Sega and he said " something like that". My bad, won't say that again. VERY happy that multiplayer modes are included, was planning on a long saturday night with a friend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's up to you in terms of what worries you about any changes. . Bug fixes tend to be save game transferable, but rarely there will be some that require a new save. If you are worried at all I'd hold off till release. I personally tend to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong but it seems like most releases they say something along the lines of "more realistic player decisions", "smarter AI" etc., Within a couple of matches, you could always tell things still have a long way to go. Defenders and goalkeepers reactions come to mind. In other words, for me, not an eye-brow raising announcement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should allow the best players in their respective positions to really shine , i hope anyway. Would be cool the if the smarter AI coupled with the new animations allowed the best players to really stand-out both in the ME and GE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, but when the words make sense and I think they do effectively address many of the problems with the FM16 ME, its fair to opine about that - in this case in a positive manner. It was actually what @Miles Jacobson said in the video that prompted me to pre-order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
