[WaltonRed]

My download has stopped with one second left!

 

Fucking hell!

[odris]

I have been trying to download it for days but it closes like halfway through and my torrent speed is like 5kb, only on this torrent.

[Guest simon]

No it downloads as an .exe file so its the install program.

 

Download Football Manger 2009

 

That link appears to be the quickest download.

 

Use that its a direct download and really fast.

[Woo]

Use that link guys. It downloaded in like 15 minutes for me, which is damn good considering the file is a little over 1gb large.

[odris]

I am using that now, will be complete in 36 minutes.

[odris]

Right i am in a bit of a predicament, i have downloaded the file but want to transfer it on to my computer using my pen drive although i only have 700mb of space on it and the file is 1gb so is there anyway i can reduce the file size to fit it on to my memory stick.

Nope.

[odris]

I have compressed the file but, unlike i thought, it didn't compress the file size. Sucks.

What's this vanilla and strawberry business all about? I tried the link a few posts up but that isn't working at the moment. Should I use the original one from the start of the thread instead?

The Vanilla demo is a much smaller file, but doesnt have any of the graphics (i.e, no kits, badges, logos etc). There may be a few other things it misses but I cant think off hand. The strawberry one is the full demo.

Negged for selling Hyypia. He turns into a great coach, aswell as you not being able to find a better defender to replace him for £1m.

[Woo]

This guy is awesome, Federico Fazio from Sevilla;

 

 

Costs a fair bit mind, £16m they wanted for him.

Cheers, will get the strawberry one then.

I know, but I thought of giving some of the youngsters a chance like san jose and darby.

Yeah, well they are young sprogs, so sending them out on loan for a season so Sami can complete his tenth season at the club wouldnt have been so hard. :whistle:

He's like the Monty of football manager.

Its seems to me you are selling your players too cheap

I sold pennant 8

Lucas 12

Shitenge 2

Hyypia you can get 4 for him. As for Aurelio 4 mill you should be negged as man city will pay 15 for him. Man city are very stupid on the game and will pay a lot more than you think. Theres 45 mill don't believe me try it. i got the ukrainien from D kyiev for 8 mill plus 50% sell on clause Obasi 6 Torje 3 Fazio 7+ 50% sell on clause yakubu not the everton one the defender 6. Saivet for free. javotic 13+50% sell on and still got money to spend.

[Monkeywool]

I signed Marcelo from Real for 4.4m he went and scored 2 including a screaming freekick in his first match, which we won 5-0 against Crewe. Then he went and played for Brazil and isn't back yet, our season has started shite.

Yeah i realised that after Man City started bidding for the players i transfer listed.

Next time i will play hard ball.

Yeah but sometimes you have to make hard decisions, no sentiments (6)

[Allan]

Just had my first play of the demo, and it's the usual bug riddled rubbish demo that SI have been pumping out for far too long now.

 

Again we will have to wait for a patch to be released to fix the problems on release day. I though the whole point of beta testing is to iron out the bugs and have them fixed pre-release?

I know the odd bug will slip through the net, but this demo is ridiculous, it has the very same bugs as last time round.

 

Far too many injuries, none of the player instructions actually being followed, the long shots issue again... I could go on...

 

On top of the usual bugs, I'm not a fan of the assistant feedback during the game and feel that they have added this gimmick because they could, not because they should.

 

I had been looking forward to this release for quite some time, and had hoped that with the beta testing for FM09 running in conjunction with FM Live, they might have given us a fairly bug free game this time round, alas, they have failed to do so once more.

 

Too much time is put into facepacks, 3D match engines and making it look pleasing to the eye, which for me it takes away what FM (or CM) was all about.

 

I'd like to see them go back to the old school versions, whilst retaining the 2D engine.

 

I'll no doubt end up buying the full version, though this time round I may wait until the bugs have been sorted first.

[WaltonRed]

Who should I look out for?

 

Who are the bargains and the wonderkids?!

 

Alex you will know, you always do!
