SO16_Saint Posted 27 October, 2009 Share Posted 27 October, 2009 how long will the demo version work for? Is it limited to 1 season or 14 days or anything, or can you play indefinitely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clapham Saint Posted 27 October, 2009 Share Posted 27 October, 2009 how long will the demo version work for? Is it limited to 1 season or 14 days or anything, or can you play indefinitely? Half a season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to rename the file and put an '.exe' filepath at the end of it. e.g "fm10demo.exe" It'll work then - I had the same problem as you.

Tac-tics Posted 27 October, 2009 Share Posted 27 October, 2009 Yeah that's about right mate, Ive paid £30 for mine so Zavvi seems the better option, just becareful with the strike. I also recieve a free 'managers notebook' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustMike Posted 27 October, 2009 Share Posted 27 October, 2009 still havent sorted out the "windowed" issue. When i play in windowed mode on both 2009 and 2010 the bottom goes off the screen and you cant get to it. why dont they make it so that you can manually resize it?

JustMike Posted 27 October, 2009 Share Posted 27 October, 2009 ok, first observations are.. i would like to think of our finances to be better than "ok" and only £1.5 million for transfers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i play in windowed mode on both 2009 and 2010 the bottom goes off the screen and you cant get to it. why dont they make it so that you can manually resize it? Works fine for me. Likely your monitor resolution isn't good enough. Edited 27 October, 2009 by Matthew Le God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tac-tics Posted 28 October, 2009 Share Posted 28 October, 2009 I must admit, I was a tad worried about it 'doing a champ manager' and going all squeaky clean and changing the authenticity of player transfers and the fee's being utter stupid. However as possibly the keenest FM fan(apart from MLG) I seriously can say this is the best management sim going. So realistic, with the odd transfer coup and they way you can 'unveil' a signing. Tactics is brilliant and the match engine is brilliant, the fans look **** hot, the small details like player and crowd movements make a big difference, you have away and home fans now, and only one set celebrate. Seriously can not wait for Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mynameisthehulk Posted 28 October, 2009 Share Posted 28 October, 2009 http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=226191 For the first time in its history, the franchise finds itself second best to Championship Manager in a number of key departments - most noticeable, training, scouting and set pieces - and while its superiority remains intact, its dominance isn't as clear cut as in previous years. Football Manager is still the best, but the chasing pack is slowly, but very surely, closing the gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sea Saint Posted 29 October, 2009 Share Posted 29 October, 2009 MLG where can I find out about an online purchase (download ala STEAM) for the Mac? I can't find anything on the fm2010 homepage but I noticed in an earlier post you mentioned something called eSellerate, although I can't see anything about game purchase on their homepage either.

Matthew Le God Posted 29 October, 2009 Author Share Posted 29 October, 2009 (edited) Unlike the PC version there's no way to provide digital Mac pre-orders, so the Mac download link only goes live when the game is available on Friday. I'll post a link then when it is revealed. For PC you can download it here... STEAM - http://store.steampowered.com/app/34000/ IGN D2D - http://www.direct2drive.com/8483/pro...-Game-Download GamersGate - http://www.gamersgate.co.uk/DD-FM201...l-manager-2010 Gamesplanet.com http://www.gamesplanet.com/UK/pc-gam...0-1545-15.html But won't be able to play until 30th October Edited 29 October, 2009 by Matthew Le God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SO16_Saint Posted 29 October, 2009 Share Posted 29 October, 2009 is there a way of turning off the annoying match view whenever you go into a match? It takes almost half of the first half to get to the old fashioned score sheet view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
