Football Manager 2012 - Official Thread - Demo Out Now

[kippaxwarrior]

wonder when FM 2013 is coming out.

at the moment i'm back managing the blues, also fucking up the rags transfer policy by putting bids in for every single player they bid for, offering huge contracts then delaying the transfer until it gets cancelled. only 2 players have slipped through the net in 3 seasons so far, some young kid who was shite and a left winger who looks ok. its good to see there squad getting older and smaller!!

A announcement was due last week but Miles Jacobson(Sports Interactive studio director) has had personal problems so it was delayed
S.I. on their website will announce the release date(and demo date) plus screenshots in the next couple of weeks

So they have introduced the different countrys tax and that it has an effect on how much you have to pay and the mercenaries start kicking off haha!

also you have a director of football who can do your dealings

if we could have a negotiation tool like the contract system where you have to haggle transfer fees with other clubs representatives and if you don't agree they break down like the contract system that would be much better, that way you could build relationships with other clubs and maybe befriend chairmen who could hire you a few years later.

If the Director of Football thing means that sometimes you get full control but at other clubs like City or Chelsea you have to give preferences and sometimes have players bought for you that would be cool, especially if things don't go well then you can blame it on the DoF and have power struggles etc.

I hope they do it properly unlike the press conferences that are just dull.

Always look forward to the new FM but also hate it as well because I invest so much time into my save game getting Stockport from conference to winning the league and you have to start all over again on new one.

Also annoys me that you can only play it till January then you have to start again with the new transfers!


But still really looking forward to this. Im in 2021 at the moment on FM12

don't have to start it again if you're into a game and aren't desperate for January transfers to be done.

the DoF doesn't sound too promising, you have control over what he does so there's no room for conflict or pressure, should be appointed by the board and have contrasting views to you etc., buy players you occassionally don't want for you etc. Shame.

Head of Youth Development, Chief Scout and dedicated staff roles for your U18 team sounds like a marked improvement.
