DarJ Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 For those that read the article what do you think about it. This year a lot of people have asked for more transparency regarding the future of the game and this is a good step in the right direction. Regarding the announcements they are huge the ability to carry saves over alone is impressive but from the way it was written it seems you will only be able to carry over from the previous year so if I bought FM 23 for example and the next version I buy is FM26 I won't be able to carry over my FM 23 save into FM26. The change to unity is nice since there are a lot of games that run on that, women football in FM25 is interesting while I don't care for it IRL unless I see it randomly on TV it's something I can see myself playing a lot because I like playing in obscure leagues. I wasn't going to buy FM24 but the fact I can carry over a save from FM23 may have already convinced me. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb1403 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 It would be a great idea but are they saying that the next years game will not be improved much on the previous year? (ie. to make the save compatible it will need to be in a similar state?) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rp1966 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 The announcement was interesting. Some acknowledgement that FM has been left behind as the gaming world moved on. FM24 continue save game is a nice feature (hopefully problems with player development will have been fixed so that it is worth carrying on). FM25 is clearly going to be a major change with a whole new software engine and the introduction of women's football. We'll have to see what that brings, but mention of both graphical and UI improvement enabled by Unity seems to address some of the concern expressed as part of FM23 feedback.

Popular Post (sic) Posted June 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2023 As I said in the other thread, THIS STUFF IS MASSIVE. I genuinely don't remember the last time I got so excited for any game's reveal. The new engine is going to address a ton of stuff, from performance stuff, graphics, UI, possibly ME?, it's going to transform the game completely. I'm still probably going to buy FM24 just because they actually communicated about what they have in store for us in the future. FM25 is finally gonna be a new game, rather than a slight reskin of what was there for the past 10-15 years. 27 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DICE did the revamp after Bad Company II leaving some users in the dust, same apply to SI. That means, I have to upgrade my hardware which is quite old (i8 8550U) and looking forward to do this.

Popular Post DP Posted June 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2023 Just glad there’s some honest communication for once. It’s not difficult and it gets a lot of people onside. Now we know 24 will be a slight evolution on 23, similar UI etc, which I’ll absolutely take knowing that 25 will be a sequel. I may not buy 24 but I’ll be waiting for any news on 25 which sounds like it’ll come sooner and include some of those revolutionary changes we’re all waiting for. Bravo on some open discussion, it’s refreshing to see. 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajw10 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 No women's football until 25 is really disappointing. Nice of SI to finally acknowledge that 23 was so poor, but it has put me off buying 24 if I'm honest 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighFlyingDwarf Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I'm pleased with the radical changes. Most definitely needed. Importing saves from one game to another is going to be interesting. It will pretty much radically change how I approach things on a season by season basis since I'll almost never start a new game now if this is actually coming. I do, however, sincerely hope that the squad planner is revamped or put back to how the squad depth page used to be. An utterly horrid waste of time as it stands currently. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swindon69 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 The forward look to 25 made interesting reading - a strong suggestion that the whole matchday experience will be better. I think 23 is my least played iteration of the game - hopefully there'll be enough in future years to rekindle my interest. I also liked that it's been made clear that min specs will be uplifted and this information will be released as soon as they can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreambuilder Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Love this news. Most of all I would like a "live" database that updates more than like twice a year. Not sure this is possible but perhaps goes hand in hand with game as a service. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd expect FM25 to be buggier than normal, at least at the start, due to the massive changes coming into it, but I'd also expect it to be very good. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrycarrie Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I love this series, have done since CM2. I will wait for FM25 before passing any judgement as we have heard hyperbole a number of times regarding previous iterations of the game. With the stagnant, broken state of recent releases it'll take some doing to bring that trust back for me. Sounds positive, but words often are. I hope 25 is fantastic, I really really do as I miss playing the game but it just frustrates me way beyond any enjoyment these days. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnoldinho Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I too really appreciated the honesty - both about what's coming and what hasn't worked to date. It gives me more confidence about the future of the franchise and frankly makes me more likely to continue to support it by buying FM24 even if I know a big change is coming the year after. A graphics overhaul and the ability to carry saves over from version to version are both really big deals for me (currently mainly still playing FM20 - small kids mean playtime very limited!). And I'm really pleased to see the women's football pledge being followed through. I hope that a once-in-two-decades overhaul also allows for some fundamentals about how the game works to be revisited, and that the community can be brought in to this discussion. Not just feature requests but what is it that will create a platform for the game to continue improving over the next decade or more. The sorts of things I'm thinking about are: - The level of simulation realism in FM is incredible but can also be overwhelming and means it takes a long time to play. Could there be an overhaul of how the different 'modules' (for want of a better term) within the game work to allow you to really customise your FM experience. For those who want a full simulation and enjoy micro-management, you can turn on everything (training, press conferences, player interactions, data analysts etc). For those who want something faster or that's more like a game they can turn those off (yes I know I can delegate a lot to your assman but player morale is still affected by what they say at press conferences, wonderkid progression still reduced if they screw up U18 training etc). Or anything in between based on the individual player's preferences. - Online options have improved in recent years with fantasy draft, but still feel like they are add-ons to a game designed in an era where less was online rather than something that is fully integrated in to the game. I'd hope a whole new version would offer some fairly fundamentally different ways to play including centrally hosted online servers that can accommodate larger numbers of players than a home-hosted network game, and where time advances automatically and some features are disabled in order to ensure a faster game experience. I hope the community can be a part of such big picture discussions about what sort of game they want for the next decade, not just invited to throw in specific feature requests. That would really build on the excellent start of today's blog. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehanson Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Communication is key in any business or industry. The fact that Miles, and the team, have come out and owned the fact that FM23 isn’t really as good as it should have been is highly commendable. As someone said above after reading all that I am already excited for FM25. The fact they have also communicated well that FM24 will be an improvement but the massive leap comes with FM25 is brilliant too - we know where the series is headed. Cant wait.

Weed07 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I'm excited for FM25, time to start saving for a new PC to be able to run it. Not convinced FM24 will be much of an upgrade on FM23, it'll be interesting to see what the new features will be but the biggest ones may be getting saved for FM25. Being able to continue a save on the next version is good as in the past I've had saves I would have liked to continue, I just hope that they fix long term AI squad building and player development so that it makes it viable to keep a save going over multiple versions, currently saves get stale long term because AI teams don't keep up with human teams and fill their squad with older players while not giving youth game time to improve. Also while carrying a save over might be good, it might also make it seem like less of a new version so not sure if I would carry on a save or start over but either way its a good addition.

There was a discussion from someone at SI and while there are positive merits to the idea, functionally it would mean each possible combination of settings would need to be tested extensively to the extent that it would be the equivalent to sustaining additional versions of the game. Bugs would have to be categorised on which settings they do/do not impact etc. It's possibly something to hope for in the future, but would be a substantial challenge to implement with how the game works in more recent times. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you mention it, I think I remember that discussion. I suppose what I'm saying is that I'd hope a blank sheet of paper would allow the foundations of the game to be designed in such a way that this sort of approach could be built in from day one, not have to be retro-fitted in a difficult way that required tons of testing. I'm on very shaky ground here as I know nothing about programming (!) but I guess its part of my wider point that a big revamp should be a chance to look at under-the-hood fundamentals.

Junkhead Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Game changing stuff. Gave FM23 a miss having gotten into a save on FM22 just before release. Had already decided to buy FM24 because a team really local to me has been promoted to a playable league for the first time ever and I was looking forward to a long save with them. Will either be an even longer save or held off a year, depending on what is happening with my current save.

greenz81 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Sounds positive... but with regards to FM24, will the set-pieces be updated? Will FM24 be FM23.5 with regards to basically bug fixing and updating player data? I really hope they push the boat out with FM24, considering the graphics are just a representation of the code telling its ´story. My biggest gripe with FM in general is the 'disconnect' with player/club/media interactions. I think of it like an RPG game now. I understand FM is a football simulation, but it SI are pushing the RPG aspect with it with regards to players interacting with the AI. Im praying FM24 finally connects all features so they are all in sync. Thanks for the update SI 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varying levels of micro-management, time spent in the game, should not feel like tradeoffs for the user. They should not be achieved by delegating tasks. They should be different game modes - GM/DoF Mode, Coach Mode, Sandbox Mode (in which you customize what you experience and control perhaps). These modes are important to accommodate different playing styles, and also for role-playing and immersion. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary James Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 For save games to be transferable from one version to another we will need to be able to add/remove leagues and their players from within a save.

But if I transfer to a new fm and they have lost the license foe 5 leagues and replaced with another 5 then I would habe a smaller database of teams/players and it would lose some of the realism.

This year a lot of people have asked for more transparency regarding the future of the game and this is a good step in the right direction. Regarding the announcements they are huge the ability to carry saves over alone is impressive but from the way it was written it seems you will only be able to carry over from the previous year so if I bought FM 23 for example and the next version I buy is FM26 I won't be able to carry over my FM 23 save into FM26. The change to unity is nice since there are a lot of games that run on that, women football in FM25 is interesting while I don't care for it IRL unless I see it randomly on TV it's something I can see myself playing a lot because I like playing in obscure leagues. I wasn't going to buy FM24 but the fact I can carry over a save from FM23 may have already convinced me. It's a great move, they almost didn't add anything new to the game and focus on fixing the swarm of bugs and glitches that's been plaguing the game for years. This way the workflow of FM25 will be easier and faster because they can worry less about adding new features that could potentially break old features. It comes with a short-term drought of new features but in the long run this decision could be pivotal for the game dev process Edited June 28, 2023 by rrreee3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domoboy23 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Sounds promising, also slightly worrying. We've seen how much quality can drop and how many bugs and knock on effects can appear even from small changes from one patch to another, never mind one version of FM with small changes to another nevermind when making big changes. Also a bit worried around carrying a save from one version to another, surely the new ME from one version would have knock on effects? (For example a player playing really well on one ME to another) I just hope the line around putting something in place and working on improvements for longer-term players (such as 30/40 year saves) is adhered to and a lot of the changes aren't simply going to be to appeal to new one season customers. In all honesty I'd be quite happy with all the legacy bugs from the current UI being sorted, a revamped interaction system and the pitch textures being sorted. I also don't think you'll be able to replicate the feel of real football until you inject some passion and side-stories in there stemming from player square ups, elbows, headbutts and brawls on the pitch (even if not able to do this with real players for whatever reason, put it in so a team full of newgens can brawl with a team full of other newgens). 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hope it'd be easier to bug test it and find issues because of this, plus being able to work with a well-known engine and building things from the start again means less bolt-ons that call back to random bits of code that has knock-on effects on several parts of the game. I'm optimistic, and looking forward to seeing how this new FM will work.

I particularly appreciated the reference to FM23's feature set and acknowledgment that some of those didn't "didn't hit the mark" Firstly the decision to proactively keep us in the loop on development and the games direction is huge to me. I've always said I don't need the nitty gritty just an acknowledgement that certain elements are there in the pipeline. I've always felt that if you tell your audience what you are working towards there's an increased conscious and subconscious effort to deliver it and the option of just dropping something out because it's incomplete in some way becomes harder to take. Secondly, the biggest thing for me personally is the match day visuals so I'm ecstatic about the proposed improvements there as well as newgens which have always been an obstacle to long term saves. Hopefully the studio is embracing AI developments so we can improve those aspects of gameplay. Totally unexpected and I'm certain it will be a huge positive for all. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
