Popular Post Eoin Maguire Posted November 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2023 The J League licensing debacle along with so many issues that are here on FULL RELEASE are giving me very low faith in SI for yet another year. Unacceptable stuff, we shouldn't be lied to and have to wait possibly weeks for a patch for a full release game. I honestly don't know what other gaming company that operate like SI do, it's baffling. 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn`t find, ok. But the even don`t try to. It is their job to search for a interested club for a fee. You only see that screen if the intermediary feels they can find a club for the player. Then it's up to you whether to use them or not. You're not guaranteed to get a list of intermediaries who can help 100% of the time, and that's how it's supposed to work.

Popular Post Double0Seven Posted November 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2023 As a loyal customer for years and having said this feedback before. SI are now EA in my books. No better than that scum. Release a game with features that were marketed but did not work. That is what you call a lie. A blatant lie. I will skip another year. I vote with my wallet. Unfortunately, the majority of you dont and SI keep getting more and more copies sold of a broken game that is majorly 95% the same every year. This game will keep going this route if people keep falling for it. The innovative hard working SI that I saw from decades ago is no more. Marketing and profits are all that matters now. Us fans are nothing more than money in their eyes. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, you focus on the match engine, which is indeed better than it has ever been apart from the high amount of goals scored. It looks and feels much better than anything we have had before. The majority of the feedback here is however not about the match engine, but about the way AI does transfers, selects its squad and refuses to use its subs and rotation players. In addition to this there are also major problems with interactions. To remind you, these were headline features presented by SI itself and were supposed to be majorly improved compared to previous versions and in some ways it is now worse. Next to that the licensing issue with Japan is also not related to the match engine, but a highlight feature and important to many users. Your priorities are different from the ones giving feedback here, which is fine, but that doesn't mean that our complaints aren't warranted.

But I really hope peoples minds are thinking into leave negative feedback on the steam. It is small way to show that all is not okey. You can always update it after fixes are done etc. The current state we see this game is not acceptable and even steam would refund your game after 50-100h. Seen it with other games if you give them overview of the games current situation. There is false promises made to the game and there is not much needed to prove it without quality feedback from SI. 1. Most obvious missing feature is promised Japan license. This was big headline feature that was miss-communicated and still yet to be released https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1904540/view/3731851575704889895 2. So this is interesting. Pretty much each year we are promised to get more in depth AI but this time it is big headline feature. As much this got people hyped, the promises seems lost. The amount of bug reports and feedback we see here shows evidently there does not seem real progress compared to last years. Maybe minimal, but stupid transfers still happen(read lot of money payed for good player to sit on bench and sold later). Youngster not getting any game time. Subs dont make any snse. There is post here where someone showed 1000 year sim to future where new clubs in top flight still had their old stadiums and capacities. How is this progress... There are countless issues and examples in this and bug thread. This is so core and soul of the game that seeing it failing is hurtful. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1904540/view/7031863664253978822 I have not managed to deep dive hard on other features but they seem to pretty dame and not up front. I am glad to see that it seems bugs from early access are not just being shut down like they use to after full release and hope they are being worked on. Absolutely agree. It would be nuts to leave anything but a negative review. Too many companies do this stuff year in year out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having to face Real Madrid with half of its squad jaded is not really exciting to me. Side-effect of above is that youngster are not getting game time, which results in players not developing. Completely ruins long-term games for me. I just had 22 players in mutiny because they felt that i did not have enough depth in Goalkeeping. Fair enough I thought and signed 3 goalkeepers, only to have 22 players wanting to leave after having broken my promise to strengthen it. I had to actually buy the ingame editor to fix my save game. They might not be gamebreaking to you, but they are to me.

MatthewS17 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Essentially, it seems the belief that FM players would be such imbeciles, they wouldn't notice the J-League would have licensing issues, and they could just gloss over it without even so much as a single announcement that this would not be the case(FM players must be too busy fawning over the new facepaint to notice). Despite the fact that this was advertised as a "major feature", which now appears to be blatant misleading and borders on false advertising. If the licensing hadn't been sorted beforehand, it should not have been announced as a feature. There seems to be a very real precedent of apathy when it comes to bugfixes and issues, and a consistent pattern of not delivering on the 'features' that are promised. This has been the case over a couple years now. It's incredibly disappointing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall anyone in this thread calling the ME bad. However, people have been pointing out legitimate problems in the match engine.

Someone suggesting SI are as bad as EA is laughable. EA would have made the claim it was a playable fully licensed league kept the J-League back as a loot box exclusive unlock and charged us all £200 extra for it oh and it would still not be fully licensed.

Agreed it's a bit naughty to suggest the league was fully licensed and not even mention during the beta when people reported these players/badges/kits missing that well actually we don't have THAT licensed and probably never will. Someone suggesting SI are as bad as EA is laughable. EA would have made the claim it was a playable fully licensed league kept the J-League back as a loot box exclusive unlock and charged us all £200 extra for it oh and it would still not be fully licensed. Others are suggesting a review bombing campaign or even refunding the game. It's absolute peak gamers(TM) bedwetting. Plus the issue will be entirely fixable with the click of two buttons within days. Yeah, again - agree with everything you have said, aside from the bit where you make out it's acceptable practice from a company to sell a product using language that implies something that isn't true. I'm not going to be asking for a refund, I am going to find a fix and use that, I am not at all going to say that they are as bad as EA, and I am not going to leave a bad review on steam. What I am absolutely going to do though is call out actual sharp and dodgy practice from a company I have trusted for 25 years, and their lack of transparency about it at this point. 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy with the game and I've not seen anything that negatively impacts my ability to play or to enjoy it. Sorry if you don't feel the same way. Warlock Ive seen and respect your opinion a lot around these forums. But calling us other loyal fans that have been here for decades toddlers for not willing to fall into lies, broken promises, marketing ******** and what not is a joke. You are part of the problem, I just have to say it. This is why exactly SI get away with what they do year in year out. People like you who do not understand others opinion and just keep on buying a full priced game with broken features that they promised for. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question, is the amount of goals genuinely not shattering some level of immersion for you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are part of the problem, I just have to say it. This is why exactly SI get away with what they do year in year out. People like you who do not understand others opinion and just keep on buying a full priced game with broken features that they promised for. So if someone buys the game and actually enjoys it, they're a "problem"? Because they don't agree with you? I mean, question is rhetorical given your previous absolutely mental assertion that SI having an awkward release is somehow just as bad company-wise as EA and their near-decade-long commitment to turning their product from an enjoyable game to a cynical, engagement-based slot machine. SI should do better, but pretending like they're anywhere near as bad as that just sounds like a tantrum. And one further edit on this subject. You can probably tell my opinions on FIFA/EAFC given the above. I would like to be able to play a "proper" football game alongside FM, and have done in the past. But I'm not going to support EA on their anti-player crusade, so I stopped buying it. But you know what I don't do? Charge around calling everyone else wrong for doing the opposite. I expect there are many, many thousands of people out there who don't really see things the way I do. They'll probably still enjoy the game in spite of all that. Good for them. I'm still 60 quid richer each year, and much, much richer in time. You've done the same for FM - good for you, you're also monetarily richer and can spend your time on something else. But again, treating anyone who doesn't have the same issues as somehow wrong for spending their own money on something they actually enjoy is...well, it makes you sound like someone who "do not understand others opinion", doesn't it?

greenz81 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 This is my MK Dons save. I'm currently breezing through the leagues. Thought I finally cracked FM.... until i realised the game wasn't how it was meant to be playing. I am a human, i already have a great advantage over the CPU... i dont need it not subbing players correctly, stockpiling youth and not using them. Player interactions still a bit of a guessing game (only time i save scum is before convos or contract negotiations). Im still treating this game like BETA, but it would be nice if someone from SI can clarify what exactly is happening with the current issues, as they seem to be simple fixes. If they are not, then please talk to us. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
