  2. You can get laptops in that price bracket, but if you can save up a bit more then you can get a whole lot more for your money at the $900-$1000 price point. If you can't wait, look out for "Intel i3" or "AMD Ryzen 3" branding - laptops with the most budget CPUs in these ranges will do a lot better than the alternative Pentium, Celeron and Athlon options and should just about squeeze into this price point. As a left field option, if all you're doing is playing FM (and perhaps other games) and you can get your hands on one (they aren't currently available officially in Australia), the Steam Deck is worth considering. AU$600 is about what it costs for a basic one (from Valve that is), and it will perform at least as well as any laptop in that price range.
  3. For FM it will make a negligible, or perhaps no difference. If you have the option to upgrade your processor that would be a much better place to spend money. Edit: duh, of course you can't upgrade the processor on a laptop. Just save the money for a new laptop in the future.

  5. I reckon they're more likely to make it SAAS
  6. Just stopping by this thread to mention the Steam Deck. If you're looking at a laptop in the £3-500 bracket primarily to play FM, this is seriously worth looking at. The controls are slightly more awkward, but in exchange you get comparable performance to a price equivalent laptop and a form factor that allows you to play FM is so many more locations and situations. Playing full FM on the bus, plane sofa or in bed becomes very viable. I've just got back from a long international trip and this is now my preferred way to play FM.
  7. Haven't got around to trying that yet. I'm talking about via the Steam Workshop.
  8. The Steam Deck is fantastic for travel, especially as you can often plug it in on long flights these days. I haven't been able to load an alternative skin though.
  9. You need to get him on loan (and playing) at a top flight team. Some of the lower half Spanish teams will loan south americans I've found
  10. Bear in mind that cloud saves can take ages to upload, so don't shut down right away after a play session.
  11. When you offer a player out it sets the asking price. These offers are responding to that rather than the "offering out" terms which is why they are demanding you pay wages. Maybe you should consider accepting in any case, if it means a higher fee.
  12. One ploy is to have an excessively high min fee clause in their contract. Then if they ever complain you can say "you have a clause and I'll let you go if it's met" to avoid agreeing a lower price.
  13. To my mine there are a couple of issues. Firstly that Graphics haven't improved a great deal in the last decade, especially when you consider the change in hardware during that time. Secondly that the game doesn't seem to parallelise tasks very well to take advantage of modern processors. I'd love for a dev to jump in and tell me I'm wrong, but honestly I haven't seen the uplift you'd expect in performance from upgrading my hardware over the years. Both of these areas could be improved without seriously impacting the people still gaming on their old pentium laptop and IMO it's about time SI got around to doing it.
