All SI needs to do (as if that's a trivial task) is have FIFA 08/09 animations and graphics and let me have a camera in the dugout as a real manager would have. And I switch to 3D in an instant. I've always wanted a touchline camera, but I suspect I'd use it once maybe twice and never again, because you'd struggle to get a good overview of play. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard a whisper that some players will be able to fly Along with this, i've heard another rumour from an extremely reliable source, that teams wanting to hold out for a draw e.g. second leg where they're carrying a lead or expected to lose etc, will be able to leave the hosepipes on overnight & play the match in a six-foot deep swimming pool. Not only that, if a player picks up a yellow or red card in a match - resulting to suspension for the following game, the manager can request a 'pac-man doodle', where, if he can make it from row A - row Z in the crowd - eating all the burgers on the way, the suspension will be rescinded.

To be fair, I think they did say they were aiming to show a “first look” at the game, so I would expect some screenshots albeit not with a great level of detail, but just to give an idea of how it’s gonna look. Still not holding my breath about it being Q2. I’d expect mid-July at best. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, I was expecting screenshots of interface and different windows, like tactics, finances, squad, schedule, etc. A couple of minutes of video in the game engine for sure, as well as a demonstration of how much faster the game runs in day processing. Given the complete silence on all radio frequencies, I don't learn from my mistakes. I would like to say that those who planned the marketing do the same, but I don’t know details.

All I can say is that I COMPLETELY don’t understand how in 2024 you can sell your product this way I do wonder if, historically, they have worked differently from most because it’s a different sort of game to most - reliant on repeat custom from a loyal fan base (lack of competition too I guess). Someone mentioned GTA earlier, and the fact they already had a trailer out for a game due next year. The difference with that though, is the last GTA came out 12 years ago - FM was less than 9 months. That being said, if 25 is truly going to be that completely new game that is built in a whole new way - the “new generation” of FM - isn’t this exactly the time to try something new with release info? Theres still time for Q2, there’s no Euros for 2 days, maybe that’s there window. It’s possible, I’m not banking on it. Am I frustrated? Absolutely. Will I buy FM25? Yep, probably. Am I gonna log another 3 hours managing Villarreal on FM24 tonight? You betcha. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, they should just be interested in sharing the results of their work. I don't remember when competition in video games pushed developers to reveal information.
