First of all I need to say I never liked rocky movies.
Now, the engine. Dunno what reviews or forum debates/ers say, but what I know is that me and my 2 buddies, who we've been playing this game all together since I cant even remember when, we all agree that this engine looks and feels wrong.
oh, and lemme also just.. say that the glass is NEVER half full, and where there's smoke, there's fire and what won't kill you makes you stronger. You Reap What You Sow
Whatever humps your camel they say.. well, idioms hump mine

You guys seriously didn't have high expectations for the first incarnation of SI's 3D match engine did you? It was never going to be perfect on the first try. It's step in the right direction even if SI didn't impress most of its fans with the new 3D engine which can only get better.

The problem, imho, is that for SI it's always been like this. Excuses, excuses... we can't expect media interaction to be good, we can't expect 3d to be good, and when you think they've perfected 2d, like last year... well... you end up with fm 08...

Of course, it's nice to see them taking steps rather than stop developing the game, but it seems to me we never get the full product, we're just paying to beta test it.

Absolutely, I totally agree with that, my only problem is I can't stop playing it..


And I don't mean that as a joke or anything...Over the time, the many many years I've played Football Manager, it has grown on me like such an addiction that even though I realize how many mistakes they've been making(particularly in recent years), I just cannot stop playing....

Having said that, I'm waiting until after playing a couple of seasons in the full release to really start bashing :p

I just hope they fix the bloody one-on-one bug as I'm getting pretty annoyed by it. They did so in FM 2008 with the 8.0.2 patch, so I don't understand how it could've slipped in in this version.
 
Animations are poor in the 3d engine and it makes it work worse than it is. Aside from that, realistically, the match engine doesn't work any worse than recent version 0 pre-patch matche engines. From what I've played of it anyway.

I actually don't mind it. Bring on the full game (perfect timing - just after exams).
