    Wes is gonna be sweet (but hopefully still realistic!) in it! :) Couldn't just give him 20 for everything, so took a starting point of last years data and modified away, but it can still be changed by more people in ireland before it gets there tho. So don't blame me! ;)

    What does everyone think? I'm quite happy with it myself. Like the new main manager screen, its a lazy mans contraption but hey, I'm a lazy guy!

    It better be *shakes fist*


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭shoutman


    demo looks good, team talks are a bit iffy though, not too much options and i can see some of the options being like the fine for no reason thing, to be used only as you are about to resign hehe


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    The fine for no reason has always been in the series.

    Yeah, but it's pointless, like some of the team talk options :)

    Its good if you want to get rid of a player and he wont sign for another team.

    But I agree on the Team Talk, once again SI have rushed a feature in. I can only hope it'll be upgraded by a patch sometime in the future.

    Played the demo and I have to say I'm dissapointed, not much of a difference really.

    Well i bet it wont stop me in playing the game. I just love it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭blu_sonic


    aint that the truth, i can't stop either


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,381 ✭✭✭klong


    ***STUPID QUESTION ALERT***

    Do you need to have any previous games already installed to play the demo version?

    What sort of features are left out of the demo version?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    No you dont need previous games installed.

    The Gold/Strawberry versions are limited to a few leagues and 6 months. All (I think) of the features are included. The game is out next Friday if you can't get around to downloading it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭blu_sonic


    players who just need their stats to be upped are of coure
    Colin Hawkins - best center half at the mo (iffy season this one tho)
    Mick devine
    Pat McCourt
    Lee Roache - Watch he'll hit england (like kevin doyle)
    Kevin Doyke (i Know they leave ireland and stats go up 5 fold){WHY???}
    Wes (true)
    Richie B (hotheaded little biznitch)
    and many more

    pity the demo had no EL, i find it hard to play in the Prem so for me the demo was a little bit of a draw back, but it did handle and look very nice, as similiar as it is to fm05 its little tweeks are very nice, better have EL facepacks full (i got bray, drogs, shels, longford??? last year {i've lost them don't ask} but no rovers and as a hoop it hurt, so bad)
