Not sure what you mean there...Craig said:Yeah but on what about the playing side of things during the matches?
Oh i dont know Sim... This new version certainly has alot of Pros about it... The Scouting is so much better it leaves anything from any other version in its wake.. Interaction has also changed... From asking players for their thoughts on who to sign to saying how you feel about thier recent performances.. Also being able to unsettle players who you wish to sign... All these add things that none of the other games had...broncoman said:i dont think ill ever buy another FM/CM game again, nothing can compete with CM 01/02, i enjoyed 03/04 for a while because it was completely new but every version since have only basic changes and dont make them worth buying...
There was a big difference between CM 03/04 and FM05 but that obviously was because of the change in publishers/makers of the game.Blewy said:Oh i dont know Sim...

most of those things are novelties which wont get used that much. The biggest improvement that was made from the early CM games though was the international management shortlist and being able to create friendlies for internationals yourself. The rest is pretty basic...Blewy said:Oh i dont know Sim... This new version certainly has alot of Pros about it...

I dont see how scouting is a novelty... If you start in a low division its the Key to success.. Obviously if you start with a high profile club it has less of an impact but IMO its a crucial part of the game...broncoman said:most of those things are novelties which wont get used that much.

I was playing a bit of FM the other day now my retirement is over but i couldnt get into it...
Spot on. Especially as you can get very good updates/patches for it to make it current.broncoman said:i dont think ill ever buy another FM/CM game again, nothing can compete with CM 01/02, i enjoyed 03/04 for a while because it was completely new but every version since have only basic changes and dont make them worth buying...
imo it would be perfect if CM 01/02 was re released with an all new database and so the game started now with updated tournament changes like no second ground stage in the CL, Australia in Asia etc...Matteh said:Spot on. Especially as you can get very good updates/patches for it to make it current.
You can get it to be a fully updated database. I think the CL has been updated. But things like the A League aren't really high enough priority to bother getting the league system updated i think, which is a shame.broncoman said:imo it would be perfect if CM 01/02 was re released with an all new database and so the game started now with updated tournament changes like no second ground stage in the CL, Australia in Asia etc...
yeh its pretty annoying, but what i dont like about all those new databases is that there have been so much changes since the original database you just cant sign maybe players in the first season of a new game because they have just joined the club...Matteh said:You can get it to be a fully updated database.

Fair enough. I've only played as bottom of the conference teams with no money, so been scouring the free transfers.broncoman said:yeh its pretty annoying, but what i dont like about all those new databases is that there have been so much changes since the original database you just cant sign maybe players in the first season of a new game because they have just joined the club...
How? That would require a game re-write...Matteh said:You can get it to be a fully updated database. I think the CL has been updated.
Pretty much. Takes the guy who writes the patch ages to get tournament details changed. He managed to get the English leagues renamed to how they are now. I'd give a full and better list but i've not played CM for a month or two now really.Craig said:Isn't that what those update patches do?
Not to change the competition structure in old games.Craig said:Isn't that what those update patches do?
SI don't do it...marc71178 said:Not to change the competition structure in old games.
SI wouldn't see any logic in doing that sort of thing.
