How do you play your Match Day

[alian62]

What is your match day experience 

[alian62]

I play the 3D option starting with Extended on TV mode for the first half then go to Comprehensive TV mode for the second then switch to Full Match for the last few minutes if its a close game . Replays i use to go to the behind option but its a rubbish view at the moment in BETA .

[Dagenham_Dave]

3D on extended mode with TV camera, depending on the save. Might switch back to 2D this year unless they put the reverse camera back in the game. I like being able to have the camera on TV view where it would be at the actual stadium. I don't like that SI defaults the TV camera view to the opposite side from the dugout when the majority of grounds have the TV cameras behind the dugouts. 

However, I like having the option  to switch, so that when you play at grounds like Pittodrie or Tynecastle, then you can have it so the dugout is on the opposite side. 

I'll wait and see if the reverse camera is back for full release. I suspect it probably won't be, however.

[Wavelberry]

Extended Highlights and whatevez the default camera is.

I feel extended lets you know enough about what's going on to change the game while allowing you to get through games. If I played full matches or comprehensive I'd never complete a season I feel.

[superposh]

2D and extended. Not sure what to select for the second question... 🤔

3D comprehensive. TV as main view and director for replays.

 

[Peter Morgan]

Can't submit my vote as never use 3D so can't pick an option for 2nd question. 2D Comprehensive.

Edit: So this will skew the results to show 3D is most popular (it probably is to be fair) but this poll won't reflect the true picture. Maybe add a 'don't use 3D' category for 2nd question? So far your poll shows no one using 2D comprehensive highlights.

Im not perfect ? Its just to gage what people are using . If you dont use 3D then its commentary or 2D isnt it ? Or did i miss something 

[hoddle1404]

Always start the game with 2D full match. Will switch to comprehensive or extended once my team settle down.

Sorry probably didn't explain well. As I only use 2D (not interested in anything in 3D) I wasn't able to submit my vote for '2D Comprehensive' as there wasn't a suitable answer to give for question 2 as I don't use 3D at all (and you need to answer both). But as you say, it's only to get a broad picture of what people are using.

[autohoratio]

3D, Sideline camera with maxed height (oh, what I'd do for a vertical 3D camera), and flipping between Full match, Comprehensive and Extended depending on how I'm feeling and how the game's going

[alian62]

Surprised no one plays with just the commentary 

[woodsy1983]

Commentary only all the way. Always have and as long as the option is there, always will (although I’m at a stage where I’m not sure my laptop could even handle 3D anyway).

[Ellis_D]

I play Commentary Only for the first half. Unless it's a big game, like Champions League, late stages of cup competitions, international tournaments, or a huge league game. Then I play extended highlights in the first half.

Second half, if I am winning and it's not one of the aforementioned matches, I stick with Commentary only. In an ideal world, 20 odd of my league games I watch Commentary only, to whizz through the seasons quicker. If I am losing or drawing, somewhere between half time and 60 minutes, I switch to Extended highlights/Comprehensive highlights, unless I am getting battered, then I stick with Commentary only, knowing the game is over.

If it is any of the above mentioned games/tournaments, I switch to Extended highlights/Comprehensive highlights in the second half.

Cup finals in any competition I often watch in full, for the second half at least. International tournaments I did that for every match.

It helps give me the feel that these matches are more important than all the others as I am actually watching the whole thing.

[BrightLad5]

Have been playing 3D Key highlights during the beta.

My biggest issue with Extended (TINY issue but annoying) is that it always shows the often needless last 30 seconds of a game before the full time whistle and it just frustrates me when im a goal down and see it tick to 30 seconds left before showing a player get tackled a give a goal kick  It feels like rubbing salt in the wound, knowing that the game is over but I have to sit through a further 30 seconds of my players being terrible 

I've enjoyed Key highlights on the Beta as there is simply so much information on FM now to analysis that it almost doesn't feel as necessary to watch every play to be able to get a good feel for how you've played.

Saying that I'll likely slip into the usual norm of 3d Extended from tomorrow haha

[roykela]

3D Comprehensive with Sideline camera.
Enjoying it the most, that way.

[IrrelevantLion]

I have tried other angles many times but I always seem to go back to Sideline view. I wish there was a manager camera so you watch from the dugout

3D Full game highlights

Sideline Camera Quite high and zoomed out

Must take you many hours 

[DementedHammer]

2D full matches. Although, I might actually try the data analyst 3D view, as the 3D actually seems quite watchable this year and the 2D view doesn't seem to have been given the love that it deserves (in my opinion).

I always watch it with Key option but I see most of you play with extended.

 

Anybody know approximately how much minute or position is differ between key & extended? Really curious now.

thanks!

[DementedHammer]

I guess you could play a match on key highlights, then watch it back on extended and see what the difference is in terms of highlights.

I'm lucky enough to have a job in which I can play quite a bit, however I still only get through around 2 seasons in game per edition.

[Tony Wright 747]

I am retired so I can play every game in full and it takes me a season to play a season if  you see what I mean

[jmarchand]

2d and extended highlights. I have the goal replays in full 3d "glory", which I sometimes just skip.

The difference would depend on the game your in ? Key Highlights are generally goal and near misses where as Extended gives you more game play and Comprehensive gives you even more gameplay . The minutes that differ depend on how many goals and near misses and actual decent game play there is

[Yigitatakan]

Yep I see. I tried Extended for couple of matches and it is much more fun. Thanks all

[Brighton123]

Always has been 2d key, but I think I will test extended soon as FM20 and this version seem to be showing a lot less key highlights than previous versions. 

Has anyone else noticed that?
