Presumably not, but worth checking!

r70lla Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) Does anyone else feel like FM needs some fresh ideas and drive from some new visionaries? Sigames are no longer pushing boundaries. SI have taken the Apple model... same product, tweak it ask for money. Frustrations will continue until such time another football manager game appears that can challenge the FM monopoly.

Well dude, if it wasn't for limit of technology (PCs and MACs not having CD player and Operating Systems being now 64 bit, instead of 32 that game was) I would be still playing FM07. But that doesn't mean I would contribute to the newer versions. I mean I always bought FM for nearly 11 years. Just because you say it, doesn't mean it is universal truth... We are all here, because we are in a way or another FMers (meaning we are Football Managers fanatics). Sure we don't usually agree what the priorities should be to the game. But we all in a way or another contribute for SI to continue to produce more games, thus for me gives me the right to criticize SI if they are doing poor job or not. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mars_Blackmon Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I will be buying it but im not as excited as I was a month ago. Although 4/5 things listed in the highlighted features are things I care about, match engine and AI is the biggest but I'll reserve judgment on that considering the results in the past. However, If the AI is now able to counter attack instead of just getting beat on teams that high press and move forward then that would be a big improvement. On the other hand, if it wasn't for lack of eyes on MLS (bug reporting), I would probably wait to get the game until the final patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overmars Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I'll buy it, but I hope I don't end up as frustrated with FM23 as I was at times with FM22. I want fewer instances of teams "in good form" scoring 3 goals on 0.4 xG. I want fewer games where teams "in poor form" hit the woodwork three times and fail to score. I want player performances to depend much less on how well they played in their last five matches. I want fewer players demanding outrageous wage increases and then complaining that I didn't offer them a new contract. I want crappy teams to stop passing the ball so perfectly. I want AI teams to actually develop young players. I want someone other than my set piece taker to be my player of the season. I want players to quit becoming "demotivated" after whatever positive words I tell them in our team talks. In short, I'd like more logic from the game so I'm not frustratingly writing this same type of comment in the "Will you be buying FM24?" thread. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the game creates local rivals, but they do create competitive ones. So if you battling with the same teams over a period of time, the rivalry will slowly be introduced, especially with some media battles with their managers and such. I think I got an inbox item when my team got a new rival even. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingstontom88 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 As it stands, no. Have pre ordered every edition in previous years but I was so put off by the FM22 ME that I stopped playing. Will wait to see what the feedback is from those who get BETA access - issue is the ME normally starts out well and then takes 2 backwards steps come full launch. Just don't see anything in the features to get me excited at the moment either. A lot of rebadged stuff. I know realism is key to FM so it will have a glass ceiling at some point but it's time to start working on things that need clear attention. Set pieces, international management, player animations and graphics - no one is expecting fifa levels of beauty, but the time has come to make this suitable to the present day. If they charged a bit more for a game with more gloss now I would be tempted for sure. But that's just me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
strods Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) No i wont be buying it, again they just keep adding in my opinion useless features, the dynamic manager time line for instance, does that really improve the game ?? Much like the social media they added a few years ago, does it really improve the game ?? i'd say no... much rather see them start to fix the thing in the game that i keep seeing in these forums that people have been complaining for years. I keep seeing the same things been said for years on these forums but the game keeps getting useless additions that people arent asking for. I for one have been saying about the interactions from 2016 and it still broken now... The core football features need bringing upto standard first before adding things in that dont improve the game in the slightest. The unlimited world class wonderkids needs sorting out aswell, its like theres countless once in a genration players available a few seasons in to the game.

SimonHoddle Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I’ll be buying. Let’s face facts 23 is all about marginal gains (some very marginal) but it feels like it’s going in the right direction. the dumping of the graphics from 17 was an insult and should have reduced the price as the quality was laughable. I really resented SI for a while for not being honest about that. it finally feels the quality is approaching that of a few years ago. The match has to be the most important part of a football management game. Make it look better, play better, more engaging every year and there will be no complaints from me. 22 is definitely a step in the right direction.

I use the NewGan faces, but the FaceGen faces do have one advantage - despite them looking like plastic they have more variety in the features than NewGan. I think NewGan's dataset when training the AI must have been quite limited as there is a uniformity to the look of the faces it produces. Still prefer the photographic quality to plastic FaceGen, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazza Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Sadly not enough to get excited about. Some interesting teases but overall, without the community to mod the game it looks tired for it's age. Might be good value per £1 to time ratio but that's also a tired argument. Given the date it comes out at each year and now that amazon prime gaming give it away free near the end of the season, I can wait. Happy to potter along with my new free FM22, plus the community updates, works for me. As an old timer who likes to dabble and who has improved his PC to high end I do need to see some better updated modernised graphics. Maybe produce a lower end game for those still into steam age PC's and another for the rest of us!! (yeah I know daft idea) I want to finish on a positive note, as I have played so many iterations of the game since way back when. Miles and his team have given me numerous hours of entertainment, thrills and spills. So as always, I wish to thank them and wish them the best of fortune in FM23.

The main things for me that are specific to FM22 are, in the ME, IFs and IWs have been lacking in impact compared to FM21. The other is the impact of the older players not deteriorating as rapidly - a good change in isolation, but this has had a negative impact on the development of younger players. especially at top clubs, which by the 2030s tend to turn into old people's homes along with the national sides. There's a balance tweak needed here to counteract the fact that these old players still have good physicals and have high reputation - 35-38 year olds shouldn't be more desirable than the hottest prospects in the 25-30 age range.

samuelawachie Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 There are only 2 industries that come to mind, that refer to their customers as “users”. 1. Illegal drugs 2.

It’s interesting (mildly) to see the people who swore on FM 20, 21 & 22 forum topics never to buy another FM for whatever reason, not until they see changes to long-standing issues. Some of them are now top of the queue to buy the new version and even pre-ordered. I don’t have anything against that but it’s pretty rich seeing them coming a few months later to complain and argue with other “users” on the forum about the game and the direction.

I did that in previous versions, but this year still holding out. Why? I still hurt what they did to me and others due to FM Touch. It was endless of years telling me and other, how SI were commit to Touch/Classic mode, when I know now it wasn't true. I saw between the lines and little importance they gave to the game mode. Two years ago, if it was not for pressure here in the community, they wouldn't have release any news about it. But you might say, but touch returned this year. Well it return under special conditions, they made exclusive deal, not because out the good of their hearts, but with a lot of money involved. Also we don't know the full extent of that deal. When the deal with Apple Arcade ends or FM24 is released, what will happen to FM 23? This hasn't been responded... yet... BUT, I know it will not be something it will be answer to us. So I will wait for actual more news about FM23 and other versions, if those get released after the beta launched and loose the 20% off, I have no issue to be patience and wait for better deal in the future. We always know there are bugs that prevent actual game save. if the last few years, bugs in the editor are so scandalous during release and always take them 1 month or two to fix them, I have no rush to buy this game. My plan is to buy it March... let us see if I can hold that long. Done, actual send any kind of approval to SI at this point. I feel SI have yet to properly apologize to FM Classic users. Note: also the things I like to know, are never announced. Editor or if the 3D Kits are the same or not. that sort of stuff. I'm used to wait.

TheArsenal63 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 The changes are enough for me to justify a £35 a year fee for probably one of the only games I buy every year (this is the most important part, I don't buy much if any games except FM so that's my whole budget). I can justify that to myself, however if it actually was a £60+ game for what they are giving us, I would definitely not be buying it. The price is currently low enough and the features just about enough to justify it . One day it won't be worth what they put out vs the price, as I imagine it will keep increasing, then I think I will be done. Plus, they own the market and they know it, so they control how much you get and set the price, see what happened with Intel or Nvidia until AMD started putting pressure on them. Inevitably companies with no competition will start to slow down improvement, you have to realise they are a corporation with financial interests, if they can give you 2 good features this year instead of 4 , so that they can save them for another year or so, then they absolutely will. It buys them time and therefore more money. SI are not benevolent, they are here to make money and to look after the long term financial interests of their company, so it makes a depressing sense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
