If you read those four articles you will come away with a lot more than a clue.

I completely disagree with you, both on the match engine and on other changes to FM in the last five years. I've played FM/CM every year since 1998 or so. I'm constantly amazed at how much better the game is each year. That's even in spite of the fact that I'm generally tough to impress myself. I've given up on most sports games for just the reasons you're describing, no real changes year to year and little overall improvement. In my opinion, FM (and OOTP too) is one of the pitifully few sports games that somehow manages to find a way to substantially improve every year, and not keep putting out £35 yearly patches. You clearly have your own opinion on that, which is fine. Still, it appears that your opinion is very much a fringe viewpoint and seems less than accurate while you're presenting it as an incontrovertible fact. I'm going to be honest here, if FM's yearly change list doesn't impress you, OOTP's won't either. Nor will that of pretty much any other game that has a new version released more regularly than once every five years. Last edited by Lukas Berger; 10-21-2013 at 12:34 PM. |

My experience is that FM comes across as a better game to me every version. I don't know if that opinion is mainstream or fringe, though.

You should know from these forums that there are some people who just can't be pleased.

I have a Republican friend who doesn't have any Democrat friends, and who thinks they are all extremists. Yet Obama got - barely - 50% of the popular vote in 2012, which means that neither side is extreme and that both are mainstream. But neither she, who watches MSNBC and teaches school, nor he, who watches Fox and owns a business, will ever believe that. In other words, those who disagree with you may not be fringe elements or extremists at all, no matter what you may think.

it is a beta right now, and will improve. SI has a very good reputation for fixing bugs. The "big" fix...usually always comes in February.

My father always used to say "If an ad or a flyer offends you, that means that you aren't in the target audience."

Of course there will always be debate on whether or not the changes in new yearly versions of these games have impact or are even improvements at all. That is not REALLY what my post was about. Perhaps I didn't make myself clear. They are UPDATES, expansions at best, and should be priced accordingly. And I never claimed to be in any majority - I'm voicing an opinion - the same as everyone here. All I can say is:
"MrMuse 18 Oct @ 7:32pm And, to be honest, with the games market the way it is currently - where you can get new titles at a quarter of the cost just a couple of months after release and good indie titles popping out at £2 - £12 I don't think there is a place for new games that cost £30-£40 even if they WERE actually full new games. Last edited by MrMuse; 19 Oct @ 12:16pm" - and that one probably IS a minority comment. Last edited by MrMuse; 10-21-2013 at 01:56 PM. |

I paid about thirty bucks for FM14 on my preorder. Divided by 52 weeks that's about sixty cents a week. I play about six hours a week of FM.
A dime an hour seems more than fair to me.
