danielkin Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Hi all, So I havnt played FM in year and want to get back into it. I have just purchased a MacBook Air M1 for work purposes and wanted to know the best way to play FM22 without clogging up my shiny new laptop? Would the solution to be to download any games onto an external hard drive or is FM22 playable online rather than downloading to my hard drive? If buying a new external hard drive is the answer what would people recommend? Cheers all! Edited February 4, 2022 by danielkin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff EdL Posted February 4, 2022 SI Staff Share Posted February 4, 2022 The FM install is pretty small, I think its maybe 5-6GB so an external hard drive is probably a bit of overkill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fc.cadoni Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Launching FM from external hard drive is not something which I will call a good idea; not matter what operating system. Will be 6GB in your 512GB (at least) hard drive system; no big deal here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arla2002 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I have a MacBook Air M1 with 256gb SSD and 16gb RAM. FM22 runs smoothly and I also have downloaded graphics pack (~6gb). My recommendation would be to install the game on the internal drive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielkin Posted February 5, 2022 Author Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Thanks all! So do I just download steam from the steam website then download the game itself?

Hi Arla, Apologies for replying to your message out of the blue. I am considering buying the M2 Macbook Air for work and I am wondering how FM22 runs on the Macbook Air? I see you have an M1 version. Had you any issues? Are the graphics ok? Does it run smoothly? Can it handle multiple leagues? Thanks in Advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
