Yeah, after I posted it occured to me it could have been a skin effect. I've seen some ways of printing some more screen on the SI forums, like the match report and match stats if you are interested. I could dig the thread and get some info on how to unlock it with a couple of easy mod to some xml files. IIRC, Ter himself was onto this to possibly include it in a future patch... FM

How is MLS this version? Does it feel like MLS or like an European league?

It feels like MLS. I wish I had the Bosman rule, for example... Since both conferences are on the same screen now.. it feels right.

Does SI not have a license for Bundesliga? If not, does anyone know why? Just going by the gold demo here, so do correct me if I'm mistaken.

now running with no problems. currently sitting 1 pt back in the Norwegian Tippeligen about 1/4 of the way through the season and still LOVING the game. It definately has that "just one more game" feel. I signed off everything else on my computer last night at 1am to play one more game before bed...didn't end up sleeping till 2:15 and another week or two of game time.

Ups there is a bug in the Spanish (the league i was playing) and Portugese leagues. The squad numbers that you submit to the league board are reseted after each match. You can set the numbers again after each match, but the problem is that once the official time frame to submit the player numbers is over, the players not registered can't play the official competitions. I have read at the SIgames forum that it's going to be fixed in the next patch so i guess i'll need to wait for it before playing.
About the German league real teams names and competitions names, there is an unnoficial patch that fixes it, it can be found here: http://www.sortitoutsi.net/index.php...s&news_id=1731 Download the real competition names. You can find also more usefull stuff on that website too. |

Does the crowd noise cut out for anyone else when you make a quick tactics change during the match?
Have to pause/unpause the game for it to come back. Weird. |

The 2D match engine is so much better this year... it just looks like a real game of soccer... last year, I was able to get far too many easy chances on long balls, but this year the CPU is doing a much better job of challenging passes and keeping an eye on roaming strikers. Plus, the passes and shots just feel more lifelike than they did last year.
Great job!

This is the one thing that striked me as an amazing improvement the one time I tried the demo so far. Played only one friendly and thought the balled move more realistically with bounces that felt almost 3D more than simply a view from up top. I mean I felt more like I had a good perspective of how high the ball had been kicked or passed... FM

Tough Decision
I just got home from a week in Boston for work. I had a ups package at the office with Civ4 in it, and at home in the mailbox was my FM2006 package from gameplay. Now I must decide which to play. Maybe I will install FM2006 on my iBook and play Civ4 on desktop.

Full vs Normal Detail
Can you watch match highlights for games if the league is normal detail? I went
to see the goal highlights for a Liverpool CL match, and I couldn't find it anywhere. |

I just got into this game last year after SEVERAL attempts at CM, but wow I was seriously blown away and since getting FM 2006 earlier in the week it is all I have played. Sweet additions.

i know what you mean FM. I've had careers on like CM 01/02 that I still have loaded on my old desktop that I still go back to from time to time, just to play a day or two really and "say hi" to all my guys.

As previously mentioned, I won't be able to let go of my FM 05 career for at least 10-15 more seasons of gameplay.
I also picked up Civ4 today, yet find myself dreaming about playing FM 06 on Tuesday. Once Tuesday rolls around, I'll be rotating my free time between FM 05, FM 06 and Civ4. |

2 injured GK's in one match.
Just had 2 injured GK's in one match. My starter picked up a knock so I brought him off at halftime and brought in my backup. He preceeded to get injured in the 71st minute and had to come off. I pulled my team back into a defensive shell and managed to avoid conceeding a goal, ended up in a 0-0 draw. I just found this weirdly awesome, since this is definately the first time I can recall having to put a field player in the goal in FM. |

When I was new to the series, I forgot to dress a backup keeper a few times including one time in a big English League Cup Match. Needless to say, it bit me in the ass and I never forgot to dress a backup keeper again However, I've never had 2 go down in one game. |

Hey, I'm trying to get into FM2006, but I know next to nothing about soccer past middle school and Hattrick level. I read the Marc Vaughan thing, but it was too advanced at some parts. Are there any sites out there for super noobs?

Good tactics discussion with samples at SI forums:
http://community.sigames.com/groupee...1/m/4762059071 Visit their tactics forums for more info, as there are both noobs and veterans there, you can find very valuable info (of course mixed with the moaning that every forum has after a game release). Also as Marc said, post here your questions and we all will try to help. Last edited by Icy : 10-29-2005 at 06:39 AM. |
