If memory serves me, we had to average 23 Chuck jokes, 24 gifs and at least 2 Greggs based jokes per page before Miles even considered pressing the button: If Chuck Norris were to travel to an alternate dimension in which there was another Chuck Norris and they both fought, they would both win. Chuck Norris does not turn the light on when pressing a light switch. He turns the dark off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a shame about the red cards and the match fixing, and fraud scandals with him and his brothers. Was always good for a red card and an elbow. We got one of my favorite Huddersfield defenders from you. Peter Clarke. What a man. Can't believe he's still going! Peter Clarke! unbelievable player.

kevhamster Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Also, probably worth reminding my fellow speculators that because I stream on Twitch and sometimes stream FM amongst other games, I got one of those funky-doobie affiliate links with discount code that the creators get. https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/football-manager-2024?ref=expcarrot Discount code at checkout is CARROT to bring the price down to £35.05, and you get the beta as Fanatical are Sega approved. I get a small kickback for anyone who buys the game with the link (the code doesn't count for that, that literally gets you the discount but i get no credit for that lol). Anyone who does buy it with that link is helping with the "Kev's new laptop" fund, so is massively appreciated lol. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that if it was the quality of footage shown thus far to be f higher quality. I mean the positional play Blog had a picture of. formation and the video had different people in it. There was no analysis of the video till a week later and even then it was recap stuff If it was ready I think they could have easily hyped it up much better. I do think it's in a better position than previous FM releases but I dont see why they would release more than 2 weeks before as I 1. creates a precedent a d people will pester them more next year and 2. there will be bugs in there. they can continue to test and polish before full release.

At its peak, Beta has been released 20 days early, and obviously, we’re not at that point yet, but, they stated in the Future of Football Manager blog that the feature set was locked in earlier than previous editions so it stands to reason that the game would be ready earlier too. i also get your point about bugs, BUT, having thousands of people using the game above what they would have in their QA team, will bring a lot more of those to the fore. And the earlier they can get those flagged, the more chance there is of getting fixes rolled out for 6th November. Their aim with beta is never to release the perfect game, it’s to get it to a point where the level of known bugs is at least tolerable and the match engine is in a good condition. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
