FM24 : Calcio (Italian Football Thread)
girotex8 replied to The Author's topic in Good Player & Team Guide
I always like an Italian career. My favourite from FM23 was taking Palermo to the summit of the game (eventually!). I'm starting with Sassuolo. Nice mix of youth and experience, couple of heavy hitters in the squad, a couple of very talented younger players, great club colours, nice challenge to overcome the bigger clubs in Italy. -

Anyone noticed a lot of screamers going in? Last two games the opposition have had Xgs of 1.03 and 1.47 and I've conceded 5 in both games, and 8 of the ten goals were from outside the area. -

Really hugely enjoying it. Particularly noticing some nice positional fluidity between my Mezzala and Inverted Winger in a 4-3-3DM. Match engine seems excellent. -
I just think Serie A is super competitive, if you start at the top. Both Milans, Napoli, Lazio, Roma, Juve all able to compete...some other nice teams like Fiore, Atalanta, Sassuolo also able to compete if you do well. If you go lower down the leagues there are some nice legacy teams to bring back to the top of the game. Lots of world class players spread throughout Serie A (Kvara, Osmhen, Barella, T Hernandez, Leao, Pulisic, Maignan, Tomori, Thiaw, Lui Alberto etc etc). I also like that the finances aren't insane like the Premier League, so it remains a challenge and it remains competitive. You can sell players for big money to the Prem and other big European clubs and still bring in lots of money. I prefer it to Spain and Germany by a long way.

I think most people would be understanding as long as it was communicated clearly and effectively enough beforehand. The issue is that there are no competitors with a product anywhere near as good as theirs (which is a complement and a credit to them btw), so there is no incentive for them to improve customer engagement. If there were 2/3 different highly competitive products in the field, you can bet that they would be communicating constantly with their customers, because they couldn't afford such complacency. It's a constructive criticism that's all, and not an unreasonable one. There were people in here on Monday and Tuesday all day waiting for the beta. Presumably there was no chance of a release on those days. Would it be horrendous for someone in the know to inform their loyal customers that it wasn't going to be ready? I really don't think so.
