I’ve not played it so my opinion could be worthless but it seems like they’ve not really done much with their two years.

The regen faces are a joke.

I bet the AI still demands £150m for their players and offers you £1.50 for yours too.

Not desperate to play this latest version as I'm still playing FM18 (contemplating to start FM19!).

However, having learnt lessons from a couple of earlier versions that there are a few bugs at demo and full release, I held off from buying until after the January transfer window database/build had been ironed out, improved and released.
Plus, it's gonna be a bit cheaper!

FM24 is the best version yet I reckon - plus you can carry over previous saves in that version too

I was lucky enough to grab the free download of FM24 from Epic, so I have that to look forward to 👍

Tactics and matchday I love. It's just a little too buggy for me right now, so I've parked it. Looking forward to the proper release so I can start my unemployed-no badges-no rep save.

I'm happy to carry on my Lincoln United save in FM 24 for now (Patrick Viera's City boss in my save btw - only in 2030 too)

Gonna purchase it when get a new laptop. Hopefully tomorrow if I get time. I've been asking for these specific tactical changes for years.

UI looks okay on YouTube videos but it seems to be main reason fans hate it. I don't like change but always get used to new FM format after a short while. Hopefully the same case here

FM Youtubers have been under fire though for saying the game's brilliant etc when apparently it's blatantly not & they've gotta say it's good because they get free copies of it from Sports Interactive

Most of the vids I seen are negative about the UI , I just mean it looks ok to my eye. Homepage portal etc

Question is should I spend £1000 on a laptop that runs it smooth and future versions over next 5 years or go for a cheaper one that does the job still

It's tomorrow the actual release is out and to be fair the beta with the update from steam is now almost bug free

The reason people are whinging about the UI is it is different. The last god knows how many FMs were basically just the same game with tweaks and this is a brand new game. People just don't like change and the UI does make sense once you get used to it.

Sports Interactive have issued a statement saying they're not gonna be updating the game now as is so sod it - I'm sticking with FM24 for now

Why wouldn't you go for a cheaper one?

They've been updating it daily though so they if the latest update is the final one then there is no need

they will also do updates throughout the year, it's what they have always done

They said about update on Wednesday too. No idea if meaningful though

What spec machine are you running it in btw? Processor, ram and GPU integrated or specialist?

Thanks
