FM 25 DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

[davehanson]

hahahahaha.

A roadmap with literally one date on it. Epic. Cue the meltdown.

[HighFlyingDwarf]

That new logo looks terrible

[XV20]

yup, we back..

 

[nusknvp]

If I speak, I'm in big trouble 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'll give them this... They are doing a great job of demotivating players each and every time they "speak" 

[Omer Senyor]

Why its so hard for them to show us the new ME with photos only...

[Domoboy23]

Is there a mention of beta/early access anywhere?

[ForTheLoveOfTheGame]

Even the lowest of expectations haven’t been met if that’s all we’re getting…

[JonnyPT]

After more than a decade playing it, I'll absolutely not buy this one... Maybe 26... Until then I'll stick with FM24.

Are you really asking this now?

[jmlima]

'Unlocks TBA'

AHAHAHAHAHAH... ROTFL. Oh man, cue in epic meltdown.

Let me guess, a PLC needs the gamers 'support' via pre-orders to finish the game.

 

[Dbuk1]

I don't understand what you was expecting?? The new features are womans football and a new engine. If your wanting to see the new engine then lower expectations as they are way behind schedule. P.s the new engine might look good in fm 31

[kiwityke1983]

I expected nothing and somehow they've failed to even deliver that.

The roadmap isn't even finished.

The longer they go without showing anything the louder the comparisons to CM4 are going to get.

[astrocreep2000]

Jesus christ, what a disaster 

[armbi]

So long time waiting, great expectations, and first to be introduced is... women mode of the game 😂😂😂

I don't see that being the case. Not with the level of players this game gets. What it does suggest though is that they need all the time they can to make it "better" (and you can read into that what you please, it doesnt look good). Absolutely incredible that after the delay announcement and more news at the end of September that this is the news. Im actually laughing about it.

We will get a list of new features, some screen shots, and the release date. 

I guarantee it will not just be the release date. That would be the most asinine marketing decision ever. 

Wow, I'm an idiot.

As comparison, this was FM24's roadmap when it was first announced:

I wish the interface and tactics were the first blogs... nothing against women football but the excitement is really not there

Almost like it's one of the two biggest changes they've made to the game in about a decade or something.

[Jojomv]

On steam are new Screenshots. But no one of the ME

Womans football is their key selling point. It has been since it was announced way back. Its what it is, someone within the corridors of SI believes this to be of great importance to the future of the game.

Horribly reminiscent of those dreadful Leeds Utd badges of the 70s.

[Dbuk1]

I'm just glad management didn't go on holiday....

[_Rob]

If I speak

[StevehFC]

Very disappointed by that. I understand stuff will be revealed soo but was expecting more. 

[Big Daddy Sid]

Match experience 4th on the roadmap...  hope this doesn't mean we'll be waiting another 4 weeks to see any ME footage

"Work in progress". Bruh

[Eoin Maguire]

They released just a release date and a road map and the road map has ONE date on it. SI really are shameless. It's gonna be October and we will have not seen anything from the new ME or UI. What a joke man

Its probably not fully ready to be shown.. hence they put in on the 4 th spot

Brand new ME... Youd think they'd be leading with it being their key feature. 

[Jojomv]

 

[Craigus89]

I don't want to be that guy but the logo looks like it is designed to appeal to the youth. Which is a worrying omen for us hardcore fans.

I thought the move to Unity was the biggest change this year

Game is out in 7 weeks or so. Very worrying. 

[andu1]

Thanks for the screenshots 👍👍

[whatsupdoc]

Few screenshots from steam. Can see a couple of those roles in there

[DMC-12]

So it's an announcement that there's going to be an announcement. 

My expectations were low, but fair play on managing to be even more underwhelming. 

[KillYourIdols]

Why you all posting Images from the Mobile Version? Guys?

 

Guys?

Mobile. Its the logo for the icon on your phone of tablet. The skin is also such a mobile focused design. 

[TheGreatRadish]

[DavutOzkan]

I actually do think the UI (that we see at least) looks better than I was expecting it to. 

I wish we could see what the portal would look like though, 

[davehanson]

No mention anywhere if you pre-order getting any kind of Beta access. Can we assume then that has gone this year? 

[autohoratio]

The game's naming style has also changed from "Football Manager 20XX" to "Football Manager 25", which means the sorting in my steam library will be messed up 😭 Just like when it changed from "Football Manager Touch 20XX" to "Football Manager 20XX Touch"

[HighFlyingDwarf]

Finally we get FM Mobile on PC like we always wanted.

[Sport Lacost]

It does feel ominous that it isn’t released on Nov 26, but rather, from Nov 26.

Gives them scope to push it back if needed.
