    I was expecting

    in The Saints

    Posted

    5 games have gone and we are on -7 points. You now think it will be 7 games to get into the positives, but we can only get a maximum of 6 points from the next two games, meaning we will be on -1 after 7 games if we win both... :p

     

    My mistake. I forgot about the Brentford game as I wasn’t there. :p

     

    7 more games? Bloody hell I hope not.

    I’d be relatively pleased with a mid table finish this season. Although next season I expect automatic promotion and nothing less. Our squad and manager on paper are the best in this league, but I understand that it can take a while to adapt and that’s fine, I’m willing to wait..! But one season is enough to adapt for a talented squad and manager.

     

    I thought it would take 5 games to get us out of minus points. Now I think it could be 7.

    Do any of those happen in 9.0.3 or FM10? No they don't.

     

    The AI in CM is non existent. Will Eidos release patches beyond the 11th Sept to correct problems? No

     

    Hopefully they won’t have to and the game will be a lot smoother upon release! - Also can you post some sort of official CM source where they say they will not be bringing out any patches after release? I’m struggling to find anything…

     

    I’m not sure if those videos are as of the 9.0.3 patch, but regardless... There are still many problems with FM. Marek Hamsik ring any bells?

     

    There will be issues with both games, probably more so on CM due to the fact they have almost completely overhauled the game. They are experimenting, living dangerously, offering new untried things. It’s to be expected.

    I've just downloaded the demo and I think it's terrible! It's confusing what to do as a newcomer, searching for players and having stats out of 100 is not as easy to tell as in FM. As a regular FM player it is so much easier on the eye and layout means such easier navigation through screens which this just doesn't have. Ok the 3d pitch might be a bit better but overall I think it's not even worth the £2.51 you could pay for it

     

    See I find the layout more simplistic and easier to get to grips with than any FM…

     

    Searching for players is nearly identical to FM… So I can’t quite understand what you mean there?

     

    And the reason for them scrapping the 1-20 system makes complete sense:

     

    The reason we decided to do away with the 1-20 system was to help with the scouting. When we show an attribute on a player we have 80% knowledge on we wanted to say it was between 61-68 if we'd gone with the 1-20 system we'd have had to show 13. There wouldn't be enough granularity there.

     

    So in order to better the scouting system, they had to scrap the old system.

    The animations may look pretty but the underlying engine is a mess - Exhibit A

     

    Look at the database and it is far from accurate - Exhibit B the Southampton data

     

    Whilst that’s true it’s a Beta Demo we’re playing.

     

    In my opinion the potentional is there to be better than FM now. But your right, they need to sharpen up on there database and get rid of some flaws before release, which having read the Official Forum they will be doing.

    Playing the demo at the moment – And can honestly say I prefer it to any FM I’ve played.

     

    What I prefer over FM:

     

    - Graphics

    - Scouting system

    - Match Engine

    - Simplicity of the layout

     

    I think they’ve done an excellent job and have already ordered my copy. For £2.51, it’s a no brainer!

    Did a 3 month trip in a car around France and Italy last year.

     

    Not so much different places but worth a mention. Had the best time of my life!

     

    Stayed in these places in this order:

     

    Reims, Lyon, Monaco, Marseille, Turin, Milan, Verona, Florence, Rome, Naples, Siena, Genoa, Nice and then home!

    Seats in this division?

    German teams have safe standing areas that can be converted to seats for Euro ties. It can be done so teams can switch between competitions or leagues.

     

    Yeah I’ve noticed Borussia Dortmund do that. They have liked 10K allocated for standing where all the diehard fans go and the remaining 70K (or whatever is) for seating. I think it’s great personally.

     

    EDIT: 050BorussiaDortmund.jpg

     

    I may have underestimated it being 10K… Lol. But how great does that look.
