    Alright lads how you finding it so far? Do you think it was worth the wait?, Are you impressed/annoyed with it?, Are the amount of bugs stopping you from playing?


    For me I am very disappointed with it. I am just uncovering bug after bug, glitch after glitch. I'm not talking about the length of time it took to install and register through SoftAnchor (although that was very annoying), I'm talking about the actual gameplay. I've installed the patch but still there are just so many things wrong with it. When FM08 was released I didn't have half the amount of problems I've had with '09. I'm now considering not playing this until the next patch is released so I can sit down and actually enjoy the game. Hopefully SI will do something to resolve this asap.

    Really enjoying it! Have noticed a couple of small bugs but nothing earth-shattering.

    It's definitely a massive improvement over last year's initial FM08 release, which had some pretty serious bugs that affected it badly.

    Think it's pretty good so far. Haven't had any problems with the actual gameplay itself. A lot better than the last version I had (07).

    Mine's crashed a couple of times.

    Frustrating to say the least.

    So far I'm enjoying it ... having a hard time with the tactics at the moment though, just can't get a win. But then I'm playing with Man City, so I guess that's realistic enough.

    A bit disappointed with the press conference though. The answers don't fit so naturally with the question .. .fells more like survey style answers: I strongly agree with that statement, I agree, I neither agree nor disagree, I disagree, I strongly disagree.
    If the answers were a bit more contextualised I'd have been happier.

    Apart from that nothing really jumps out as being bad.
