My Rant

Now dont get me wrong, i love FM and will continue playing it for as long as i can, but there is one thing about the game that is really buggin me; its becoming so damn deep and complex.

Now most people would think of this as a good thing as it means the game is becoming increasingly realistic and more enticing. But for someone that really doesn't have the time and really doesn't want to have to spend hours on perfecting a tactic and making constant alterations to several different factors of tactics etc. its becoming increasingly frustrating.

The problem now is that i feel like i'm really not enjoying the game as much as i used to back in the days of CM03/04 because the game is becoming so damn complex that i'm just not able to cover all the parts of the game, actually gettying anywhere and enjoying it. There are just so many factors to consider on matchdays etc.

I think SI are beginning to run the risk of creating a game that is so incredibly deep and complicated that people are just not going to be able to have the time to play it and enjoy it.



Also waiting for the first patch is becoming annoying, there are definately a few bugs that really need sorting:

- Equalisers coming 2-3 minutes after the first goal FAR too often no matter what you do with tactics etc.

- Formulaic games becoming far too regular - i can predict that in 8-9 games out of 10 against mid-low table clubs i'll go 1-0 up at half time, they'll equalise early in the second half then my team going all out attack to scrape a 2-1 or score a tonne of goals in the last 10-15 minutes of the game.

- Too many goals almost directly from kick-off.

- Man marking instructions not working.

- Ridiculous amounts of club takeovers.

- Floods of injuries too often.

My main gripe is goalkeeping coaches who aren't goalkeeping coaches.

I have a guy with 6 for that attribute, and it will cost me 400k to get rid of him because the poxy system won't allow you to change it and put him on other schedules.

Its the worst thing they've ever done to the game - if somehow we are so retarded not to assign a fitness coach to a fitness regime etc... Who the hell decided that would be a good idea? I hope the patch scraps that, I can't name one positive thing it brings to the game at all.

Oh yeah, ditto about goals being scored from the kick-off and when you've just scored. Its really daft. They magically pop a ball over your deep backline and your defenders just stand there and allow some no-mark to ghost in - despite the fact he couldn't do so until you scored. You'd think their morale would be shot...

it seems that even after the patch they havent sorted the equaliser straight from kick-off :f***:

this is seriously almost putting me off playing the game, no matter what i do it happens. i just had it 2 games in a row - against Chelsea and Arsenal.

no i've had the same problem with several tactics, annoying thing is it never seems to happen to me - only happens if the opposition go 1-0 to me.

Funnily enough, I've never actually had a goal straight after the kick off thing. Although I agree that FM has gone too complex, and lost its magic :\ I havn't even managed a season on this version.

The game just seems so addicting as last FM.
The problem is that from FM to FM some things change...some tactics don't work as good as they worked before (maximum exponent is Diablo, for example, works wonders in a version, but in other version it is...ok). Then the training also change...so does the teams we usually play.

But yeah, I have to agree that there are some bad things in the game. One of them is the injury strike that happens sometimes. Still, it doesn't take the pleasure of playing the game. =D
