Football Manager 2008 - Details Announced

[Socrates]

The graphics from the pics I have seen looks like crap....not sure if I will like the new layout or not but I am sure their will be better looking skins out in no time.

 

[Zlatan]

Actually, I for one like the new skin from the screenshots I've seen. Will have to wait and see if it functions well in-game though.

 

[Johnny_Big]

I also like the new skin, I got tired of the other one...

 

[Áļéאָ]

tbh I never liked any downloadable skins. They never have the professional quality of the default skin. wrong colors in the wrong place and information readability mostly are the problems.

Here we go.

Official demo release date...30th September sunday morning.

Not bad really, 1 week to go. I can wait until then, I'll just play Sega Rally Revo

If you are going to waste your time playing games on pc at least do it with a decent one... world in conflict for example

 

[Johnny_Big]

Sega Rally just owns dude.

 

[Áļéאָ]

I wish not to go deeper into this

and.. er..FM demo coming soon.. woohoo!

 

[jani]

How long do you guys think before the game comes out, after the demo?

 

[Áļéאָ]

guessing... within a month...?

 

[Parra Power]

This is the first time I've actually still had an active game going by the time the new demo rolled up. I'd better step up the game play.... build a decent team, win this EPL, CL, CWC..... in, what, less than a month?

 

[Alex]

haha, same as me Parra! I did have a game of 01/02 that went longer, but only because htere was no 02/03...So it was a long wait for 4...

 

[Parra Power]

Actually I think I've gone too far with this game to not go all the way. Conference South to Premier League is already done... I "just" need to win the trophies now As far as i'm concerned FM2008 won't be released until Fisher Athletic is world champion .

 

[Alex]

haha, Ive only done LLM properly once...I did it in CM4 I think it was. I got to about the third flight, then, took a job with Hibs in the SPL...Then got sick of that game.

My current one is a semi cheat/semi LLM game.

Before the game, I created a club with HUGE amounts of cash, a tiny stadium without seats, slightly above normal conference reputation (as my chairman just invested loads of cash, so obviously itd be above normal), a rich chairman, no players but a youth academy, and perfect training facilities.

My team started in conference south, its like ten years later now, so Im up the top of the league and in europe etc...But Im really attached to lots of my squad, simply because about half of the starting team came thru the academy..

the new FM has got alot of new features to it will be one of the best cannot wait for the demo which like you all know releases 30th September! but it has to be downloaded quickly as alot of people will start downloading and it will be very slow for few people , i know when i will come online to get it

 

[Tom]

Nah we'll post mirrors up once the actual thing gets released - hence most people can download it.

You're right though, if about five people are downloading simultaneously from sigames.com - it crashes

So true

 

[Zlatan]

That's why I always try to download it from sites like Filefront etc.

 

[rpvankasteren]

If anyone finds or creates a torrent for the demo and isn't sure if it's ok to post: go right ahead.

 

[Johnny_Big]

There isn't one so far. I'm checking every important torrent site everyday

 

[Filipower]

well, seeing as it'll only be released on sunday, Johnny...

 

[Johnny_Big]

Some important staff from CM/FM fansites already have a version of the demo.

Luis Silvares from CMPortugal already has it. Of course he can't put it torrent. Maybe some asshole will do it.

 

[jani]

Dont call that someone an asshole
