Craigus89 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago The more I think about it the less I think there will be anything at all today apart from pre-orders and release date announcement. They've pushed things back multiple times and prepared us to be dissapointed in the dev updates. To think they'd now be ready to show things at this 'early' stage is, as the kids say, pure copium. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might announce more, but this is literally what the dev update says. We all want to see as much as possible, as soon as possible. I'd love more information, but the above is what the dev update says. Hopefully we get a screenshot or two, but I am certainly not expecting it.

I bought FM24 after I skipped 22 and 23, didn't see any improvement in the gameplay and after just 90 hours of playing, I went back to Crusader Kings 3. 😄 Edited 13 hours ago by Proz 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Brentford Alan Posted 13 hours ago Popular Post Share Posted 13 hours ago Brilliant to see SI finally including the ability to pick a frog's head for your manager profile, it's so forward thinking. Sure some will dismiss it as woke nonsense but for those of us who identify as large amphibians it really is game changing to be able to select a proper representation of ourselves in the game. Hopefully it will also help society be just a bit more understanding. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jef- Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Despite my certain disappointment by today's announcement...I will buy FM and probably pre-order it. I've played it for decades at this point and that has always been one constant in my life. Whether I was in primary school, secondary school, in love, going through a break up, after finishing my playing career, through college, through depression, after losing my grandparents, and even now when I am the happiest I ever was...Football Manager has always been there and I hope it will always be here. I trust Miles (ugh) to not ruin it. He is so stubborn to a fault but sometimes that is for the good of the game. Yes, I am the problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
