I am not bothered about women's football being introduced this year, it's just taking things out like international football that's a bit on the wrong track for me and i know most people didn't use it but it's still good to have see like when nations offer you a job and things like that, i used to love getting a job offer from Iceland or Jamaica in my current save, it's just taking the realism out off the game for me. The most thing i want is the AI squad building and much better staff interaction and the AI tactical side of things instead of them using the same old formations game after game no matter what team we play and please let the scouting be so much better. Much better press conferences instead of the same 5 questions and answers that we have had for years and much better player interaction and make staff more meaning full instead of just hiring them and never bothering with them again if yous get what i mean. like make the sports science take control of the individual player rehab thing when they are coming back from injuries instead of us having to manually change it.

If there isn't any early access i feel the game is going to be even more bugged out than it looks like it already is, by the look of them screenshots or whatever they was what they released it looks so rushed and if there isn't a beta imagen the bugs that will be on the initial release. Ouch! Let's give them the benefit of doubt but its not looking good at all really, even the new logo looks like a volleyball LOL. This is going to be the only year where i haven't pre ordered as soon as the pre order goes up.

New era LOL, it looks no different to previous versions. it's a new skin and nothing more. Im very disappointed at this stage but it might get better, but there are still even symbols from 2020 and so on i thought we was getting a whole new looking game.

Not at first but could do down the line

I know some of us don't use international management but it still does make the game feel better, see like when you get a job offer from a nation and that so it's just nice to have that option and getting rid of that is a backwards step surly

That's normal mate its the match engine that matters and that's when you will see the usage go up its a power saving thing by SI i think but i do know that its normal

But why would they show it if it isn't going to look close to looking like that, it looks more like a new skin than a total new UI, just my opinion

Long shot but i hope every area of the game is upgraded because for a 2024 game its severely lacking in most departments or totally useless features, like the differences in the director of football and technical director and head scout are very minimal, they just seem to do the same thing because you can just get the head scout to do everything the director of football and technical director can do, things like that, if yous get what i mean and the AI squad building is all over the place so, like i see a post about a striker being put at center back in the champions league final, things like that. Staff and player interaction is very minimal and the same old pres conferences and answers. 5th choice center back moans about playing time and by the end the whole squad is unhappy about the way i've treated him and think he deserves more playing time even though im top of the league. Opposition managers moaning about the agreed players role and things even though the player is top scorer and i'm top of the league but he got recalled due to the manager wanting me to play him as a pressing forward and not advanced forward. manager touchline shouts are awful and needs a major upgrade I have full faith in sports interactive even though the last 5 or so editions haven't been up to scratch i have a really good feeling about football manager 2025 and forward

Same here mate, and its pretty shocking really and very disappointing considering Miles said it will be the most complete edition yet and tbf its very far from being that

This is why i've stopped playing the game its gone way to far now to be even decent, i've noticed so many little things like that, its unreal and it totally ruins it for me, so i just hope that FM25 will be the real deal but not banking on it tbf

Another one
