I suspect very few played the Malaysian league. Have you complained about that? I happen to agree in the shouts. Well, I'd like to have seen them at least replace them. I did understand the thought that they were never quite perfect. I've commented that same thought myself. They removed the ability to see your former conversations a few years ago and never replaced it. But we really don't know the full feature set yet. I'd suggest waiting. 😁

There is no evidence, just a lot of people worrying about stuff that hasn't been revealed yet.

50%+ of games these days have a community saying it's all being done for console. Other than a redesign of what you accept are just a few screenshots, I don't see how anyone can say that for certain. You say there's little information and then make assertions that could only be based upon adequate information. The past few FMs have had an information release schedule that's been similar. Teaser trailer and screenshots and match engine coming out about two months before release. This year is no different. FM has halso been on console and mobile for a number of years now. Have SI dumbed the game down up till now?

Thanks for letting us know.

Stop making things up. You know I didn't say that. No one's telling you you have to press that preorder button now, are they? Stop being melodramatic.

Do we know that? I saw people saying this on reddit and couldn't find any quote that said there was no early access. Maybe I missed something. 2 weeks of beta has been an established practice for FM. Let's wait and see.

I do agree that I miss demo disks, but Steam has whole weeks of some demo festival now. Games not even close to full release putting up teaser demos. Not so easy to chuck out a very early demo for FM though, I think.

And apologies if I sounded patronising or anything. I was just clarifying things. And the second half of my reply wasn't really aimed at you, but more general.

Never said my opinion was the only one. Pretty sure I've just suggested people calm down and drink more tea.

Match engine and graphics engine are two entirely different things. I am pretty sure we're just seeing the match engine ported into a new graphics engine (unity). I've said enough this morning about how I feel about the wild panic and hysteria from the community. I worked all night and I'm going to bed. Calm down people. You'll get your juicy goodness throughout the month of October.

The 1990s were so much more patient. Life was relaxed and the music was good. The phones were quite big and no one was on them 24/7. Judging by the response to the FM25 announcement I think the sweets these days have more additives in them too. It's all them darn energy drinks

Actually gameplay will come. Sit down and have a cup of tea. Play something else, maybe. This is very common in the games world. Release is in 2 months. You'll see some juicy gameplay by then... It's not like you can play it...is it?

I still don't see the difference. I know a lot of FMers just play FM. I don't. I play a lot of games and there is no limit to the amount of games that will release teaser trailers at the same time as preorders go up. Don't think I'm blindly devoting myself to FM25. I'm not. I have a sense of trepidation regarding this year's release, and I'll judge it on how I see it on November 26th. If I think it's bad then I'll say so. But we haven't seen anything....!!! People are condemning FM25 because they "think" it'll be bad. There's a level of preemptiveness there that prempts preemetiveness itself.

I've paid for it for 20+ years. Not regretted that yet.

The above is key. In the FM24 skins how much on each player's profile do you really look at in one scan? I admit I love the skins, but as long as the information is available then who really needs the fluff. Agains...it's still...
