The rollout of the v1.3.3 update for Football Manager Live is due to be rolled out today from 6am onwards, this should be completed by midday (hopefully earlier). The focus of this update is player attributes and progression it’s worth taking a detailed look at just what changes are coming. Changes • Added a patch to rebalance player set piece & crossing attributes so that players who have experienced drops in these areas should have the negative effects removed and instead be given progression in these areas equivalent to progression seen elsewhere • Made some changes to smooth out the extreme drops in attributes and ability for players when they cross…
On The Forums A slightly calmer week on the forums, as the shock from the initial announcements on the future of football manager live and the reset coming next year begins to wear off. A number of more productive threads have cropped up, although a degree of the frustration remains, for the most part it’s all about questions and answers. Podcast Feedback Thread On the whole a generally positive reaction to last weeks Podcast with Marc Duffy and James Schall, this thread is open to a range of comments and any further questions people may have. Frequented by all those who participated on the podcast, any outstanding questions will be answered at the earliest…
Do you plan on continuing your FML subscription ? This weeks monthly poll is all about the big annoucement, The Future of Football Manager Live Part 1 and Part 2 Nothing has ever had such a big reaction amongst the football manager live community before and in a way we can hope nothing ever will again. But even on this issue there are a lot of mixed views, so which camp are you in? Do you love this game enough to keep going even though your annoyed by the decisions made? Do you think this was the right move, the only way to save the game? Maybe your just glad the game is going to continue in some form, even though it means losing everything you have done to…
On The Forums No prize for guessing what the main focus of the forums has been this week, between the main two threads about the announcement there have been some others though. The Future of FML (Part 1) As expected this one is all about the first part of the announcement, although a very large proportion of the replies are more focussed on where’s part two. Still a number of good questions arose about the new game world types. Rather than trying to wade through that though I’d recommend going straight to the Q&A thread posted in response. Q & A – Returning Stars The Future of FML (Part 2) Part 2 of the big announcement created a bit of a stir it…
Now that the information is out there and people are considering all the ramifications of the two part announcement on the future of the game, I though it would be worth sharing the initial reactions of many of the people who provide content for gameworldone.com How closely do we reflect the community’s views? Mark Burton Having written a number of articles on how I thought the future of the game should go I was relieved more than anything to see Sports Interactive and Sega take the plunge and commit whole heartedly to the future of the game, even though it may cost them in the short term. I can certainly understand the frustration of many who have played for a…
The announcement is finally out; Marc Duffy has laid out the plan for FML moving into 2010 with the future of Football Manager Live Part 1 and Part 2. Is it all good? Well it’s certainly created a lot of angst on the official forums, and that was always to be expected but the interesting point is the majority of people are agreeing with the principle of the decision they just aren’t happy about how it will affect them. The one big underlying problem facing FML was the fact that the current worlds are not attractive to new users, and if new users don’t join a game world then it will eventually die. That’s important to consider, because even under the new format…
Continuing on from yesterdays announcement, The Future of FML (part 1), today saw the rest of the long awaited announcement on the official forums. Again as this one has a big impact on the future of all those playing the game we have decided to reproduce it in full. Any comments or questions you have today are best placed in the original thread (linked below) where a number of Sports Interactive and Sega staff will be standing by to answer as many concerns as they can. Millie has released his first reaction to the announcement, Let There Be Light – The Big Announcement First Reactions now that the NDA signed at the FML Council meeting earlier this month has…
Today saw the release of the first of two “blogs” about the future of football manager live, tomorrow will see the second. As the information contained in these offical statements is going to have a big impact on the game and how it is played i thought it worthwhile reproducing the entire articles here, as opposed to just a link. *Note: After the release of part 2 tomorrow the NDA signed by those who attended the FML Council will be void, and as such our own Gareth Millward will then be able to help fill in any blanks and express his own opinions about the future direction. Also next weeks Podcast with Jordan and Millie will feature an extensive interview with members…
