Popular Post doctorbenjy Posted October 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2023 Hello SI Forum friends, I'd consider myself an ambassador for FM creators/youtubers as I hope the rest of them would too, none of us care if you have opinions on the quality of the videos, if you're not into it, you're not into it, but last year and this I continue to see comments that I think either go a little to far, or just aren't in the slightest bit necessary when it will absolutely come across as a thinly veiled attack. This was something I personally discussed with various people at SI who agreed, so while the excitement for FM24 is at all time high, having met everyone who creates videos around FM24, everyone is lovely, most love the game in the exact same way as anyone who posts on these forums, please do remember that. Lots of love x 35 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a minor gripe with all the videos released today though, they're all practically identical and a clone of one another, I'm yet to see a video showing how the new tactics and match gameplay plays out in the lowest leagues. Would have liked to have seen how a team akin to Darlington or Slough Town's level fair and whether the match is a reflection of that level.

samrnpage Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I reckon its a very satisfying time to be a MOD/Staff member just before Beta release. Seeing us all get desperate for the game theyve all helped create over the last year. I am sure theres lots of work behind the scenes we dont know about to make it stressy as well.
