    Sorry for any inconvenience! New attachments can be uploaded but it would be better to leave avatars for now as they could be overwritten as part of the migration.

The BETA of the licenses fix is also on there.

I love the way the MODDING is identical to FM24.

Expecting the files to be updated pretty regularly so will upload new versions as soon as available.

Will actually play the game this afternoon and make own judgements, as don't give a shit what some YouTuber thinks.

Thank you mate! Really apreciated your work!

This is my all time motto. 🤪
 
Saved lineup selection and saved tactical style aren't on the beta. A very useful features.

Did SI confirm they will add some missing feature on the final release ?
 
I really don't think the "final release" will have any missing features. Only bug fixes.

Their designation of "alpha", "beta" and "release" is pretty meaningless (and if we're being really honest, deceptive).
 
I had my controller plugged in from playing FIFA and I launched FM, and it's brought up my controller layout. My god..it's actually better with a controller than a mouse and it makes you realise why the UI is like it is. It's actually gutting.
 
Had a feeling this would be the case - SortItOutSI have tweeted a few "tips" that involve using the arrow keys to switch between panels more easily (like a D-PAD)...
 
The game is just in a shocking state. The amount of bugs, tactics actually being too easy (I see most people win most matches, it seems the AI can't fully adjust to the new setup of tactics) and just the state of the UI all leads to that the game wasn't ready for release and they knew it.

All preview videos of Streamers/YouTubers where hiding bugs/not showing them, which is plain obvious when basically nearly every second action in game at the moment causes a bug to happen.

Seems also like people are refunding the game and we are speaking of the most loyal fan base who basically preorders to get early access.

What on earth are you talking about? I am saying that a Twitter account has pointed out it's easier to navigate with arrow keys than the mouse, like so:



This mimics the D-PAD.

Please withdraw your comment.
 
Headlines like this paint an accurate picture unfortunately (link is clickable):

FRVR: Football Manager 26 lead confirms new overhaul will have issues as “you can’t expect 20 years worth of quality” in brand-new experience

But then it does beg the question, why would anybody buy it, if it's not going to be a quality product (and the thousands of reported bugs are simply proof it isn't).

I'm devastated by this release - and pissed off, frankly, at them labelling the early release as a "beta" (when it's the final version minus some fixes).
 
I have tried, really tried to learn the UI but no matter how much I try, I just do not like it. On top of that everything is so clunky and some of the design choices they have made, I just cannot understand, they have really dumbed down the experience and it is not enjoyable or have the immersion of FM24. Then there are the bugs, just so many of them. Like Chris, I am devastated by this release and annoyed. It is such a shame that they have gone down this direction, I think they will regret it.
 
The amount of bugs I'm hearing right now is worrying. I know, I know, it's only alpha/beta/sigma/delta whatever, but we're less than 2 weeks away from it's release date. It shouldn't have this many bugs.
 
Started playing the game with a controller to see what is going on.
The game is very clearly designed for being easily playable with a controller.

The UI is a complete mess and horrible to use, I am very nearly at the 2 hours play time and never thought I would say this about an FM game ever - But going to get a refund on Steam.

Also the matches are so dull and uninteresting and go on for absolutely ages - I am actually incredibly bored of the game.

The game feels so incomplete, so many bugs and everything seeming dumped down to attract new players.
I mean all the staff stats are gone and your now looking for good, very good, elite - Although it does glitch sometimes and shows elite is 20 and very good is 15.
The tactics just don't seem to be as in depth and allow you to tweak as much, it is just feels so a massive step back from FM 24.

The game needs new skins desperately it is a complete horrible mess of a game at present.

They also removed the display of player's name when clicking on it during the match. Now, only the player's name who has the ball is displayed.
